No, Mrs. McNeal and Mrs. Donovan did not have first names; they had to give them up upon getting married. Not many people know this.

🔥Respect to Jasmine Crockett, a true fighter & fierce voice for accountability. She’s raised millions, mobilized the base, and never shied away from confrontation. But here’s a warning: Dems in Congress better start backing the real fighters or risk alienating the base. @repjasmine.bsky.social 1.

A timely reminder that I'm five years behind on my GG rewatch-inspired goal to up my loungewear game.

Offices used to have lots of cool stuff, phones, Rolodex, pencil holder, reference books, oft-used documents in convenient holders. Now? None of that. Might have a mouse. Offices are now boring gadget-free wastelands.

How about we have party leaders focus on the words of a United States congressman - Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama - who’s calling Black people “inner city rats” who leach off of America’s taxpayers. Stop the focus on municipal elections and get to this. Where is the censure and condemnation?

"Unlike other industries, these dresses cannot be made in the United States," the National Bridal Retailers Association wrote earlier this year in a lobbying letter, "as there is zero labor pool of skilled craftsmen that can hand-bead gowns with as many as 200,000 sequins, beads, and crystals."

Democrats: We need a message, we need relevance, we need energy Also Democrats: Yes, well, lets just defame the people who can deliver that

Be not afraid of the biblically accurate Chicago

Jake Tapper waited until the last 15 seconds of his Sunday show to mention yesterday’s funeral for the assassinated MN legislator and her husband. He showed video of their dog, but there was no mention of Biden, Harris or Walz attending — or that Trump and Vance didn’t.

So does Murkowski have genuine misgivings with the GOP, or is she just purely venal and they found her price? This is a genuine question. Either way I’m not excusing her trash vote on this thing.

"What? I'm on break."

It's amazing how much clarity the New York Times has about Viktor Orban and his crackdown on LGBTQ people. If only they had it for Trump and the US. It's the exact same political strategy!

Hopefully, Xcel and Public Works have gotten these working by now, but just in case:

Every cut that the government makes to social services is effectively a tax on women. Because they're the ones who will be expected to fill in the gaps.

Highly recommended! I learned so much from this book.

oh! and then if you own a home your state can take it away to try and reclaim what the government spent on you. erasing anything your family had left. like the wealth gap wasn’t already large enough, we are using our healthcare failings to increase it.

Just as a practical matter, consider how unheard of it is to expand an already significant federal agency by 1,000% in two or three years. WW2 mobilization or the early 60s Moon race are the right sort of analogies

Wait a sec. It’s not a 1pm on a Wednesday

Who the fuck is lighting off fireworks during a tornado warning

Damn, Thor! We get it, you're mad.

MN DFL chair richard carlbom is working the booth at twin cities pride straight from mark and melissa hortman’s funeral. stop by the booth and sign a get well card for john and yvette hoffman

the Star Tribune just called me and told me they would not be publishing the obituary I wrote for my father as it is “unfair to him” and “in poor taste” so here it is and fuck the strib ✌🏻

Somehow, NYC and Minneapolis-St. Paul both have this vibe today. (MSP has several major highways & streets shut down this weekend for construction.)

The Right really is in disarray because they cannot seem to figure out if they should push “Zohran Mamdani is going to bring Sharia Law” or “Zohran Mamdani treats his wife with too much equality” as a smear campaign, so they are doing both.

"How I call Senator?" It's easy, you have two Senators, call (202) 224-3121 and ask for the first Senator, call back and ask for the other. You'll probably get an answering machine. Say your name AND YOUR ZIP CODE, and that you "oppose the Medicaid transgender ban in the 'reconciliation bill'".

Teamsters booth fully staffed by furries, gorgeous waterfront park, weed slushies, these fried cheese curds I’m eating, Twin Cities Pride I looooove you

I still wish Steven Knight had gone full alternate-history with Peaky Blinders and had the assassination attempt be successful.

The trans healthcare ban is BACK in the bill (after the parlimentarian removed it, they put it back). Dems need to do a call and vote to remove it again. PLEASE CALL YOUR SENATORS AND TELL THEM TO VOTE AND KILL IT.

If I were a hero I think I would probably not be happy to know that my name had replaced another guy’s entirely because the secretary of defense hates gay people

I think Zohran Mamdani demonstrated pretty handily that he’ll protect Jewish New Yorkers when the seniormost Jewish elected official in the city was detained by jackbooted thugs and he was on the scene demanding his release in minutes

Proportionally, the estimated 100-200k Pride marchers in Budapest today would correspond to something approaching 1m in London or New York. And this in a country that has now spent 15 years under illiberal, authoritarian rule. What a symbol of hope.

don’t. let. up.

Groups and activists have been pushing for this for at least a week -- this was not a given. I hate that we had to fight for it but regardless, this is a WIN and big shout out to everyone who has been calling and pushing and organizing around this

Surely someone has a picture of a wiener dog in front of Kramarczuk's.

Who is operating the cameras for the Hortmans' funeral, this is atrocious.

if we are going to be ruled by a council of unelected wizards they should have the decency to look cool enough in their fucking robes to paint on the side of a van
