Carenity

My neighbors and I walked down to Lake Street with our candles tonight. We stood on the corner together with other neighbors up and down the corridor.

For Alex.

For Us.

For those taken and those hiding.

For Minneapolis and Minnesota. 🙏🏾

We don’t need to bring in the national guard. Not the state nor the federal government.

Neighbors have been coming together to help keep our communities safe from immigration enforcement. 1/

Missed connection: are you the dad in the black VW Tiguan who I saw rocking out to some serious metal today on Hiawatha ~3:30? Were you getting hyped for daycare pickup? I saw your two car seats; one rear facing. I’d love to have your playlist. Cheers to the weekend! #parents #mpls #goodfriday

Chicken soup is good for pretty much whatever ails you. Today (for me) it’s the tail end of a bout of covid. This morning I couldn’t smell a thing, but I could smell the onions sautéing in butter and the garlic warming with the herbs. I’ll also be sharing some with a friend.

You’ll wear the heck out of it!

I love getting the purples first.

I’m not going to the Joint Address. I will be live posting and chatting with you all here instead. Then going on IG Live after.

Walk out. Or don’t go at all. Press conference with fired federal workers—esp those who are military veterans. Full rally with more people outside than in. Live stream it on TikTok or with @meidastouch.com

Screen shot of today’s NYT crossword. The highlighted answer is “SUBMARINES” and the clue is “Footlong sandwiches.”

Seeing this answer when I’m hungry AND it’s Monday suddenly makes me wish I was in Blacksburg so I could grab a half priced Hindy with some friends.

So Elon Musk - not an elected official, doesn't have security clearance, has been under investigation for years, illegally seized control of trillions of our $$ - is trying to access SCIFs (top govt secrets). THIS IS A COUP. Where is the military? The Dems? Why aren't we stopping this?

1,100 EPA employees have been notified of imminent termination.

I think it’s better to have loved and lost. (Though the withdrawals will be so bad!) 😬🫣 I would also love a meetup. Maybe at the two story Taco Bell? I think that was one of the first TikToks I saw you in. You telling us you got to go and then your footage of being there.

I’m just a girl. Sitting here on my phone. Asking all my favorite TikTokers where else I can follow them. And then using my last precious fascist-free weekend doing that.

No!!! You don’t need sad news right now. 🫶🏻

Boomers, greatest, zoomer, millennial, alpha. It’s fine. We’re FINE.

Doing my NYT puzzles. Gen X left out of today’s Strands, but it’s ok…we’re used to it. 🙄

That sounds like complex flavor but not in a good way. More like the vegemite way.

Came to say this

What was bad about them?

There was a lovely series recorded there: Down for Love. Centered on adults with Down syndrome (and other cognitive disabilities) looking for love. It was very well done!

We do love to air the grievances.

This Blake Lively drama is the Circuses, y'all. Tr*mp promised Bread via lower grocery prices and he cannot deliver. So they're ramping up the Circuses again. Don't be distracted by the Bread and Circuses. Eyes on the prize: democracy and quality of life for working class America.

You have to work today?!

I asked Chat GPT the difference between thankful and grateful - and I’m obsessed.

One of the people just started holding the mic so close to her face with her fist that you couldn’t see her lips at all. 💡

Epic!

Bonus!

The Republicans who voted for Donald Trump are currently in the finding out phase and he hasn't taken office yet.
