Ravioli heard it was National ravioli day.

Frog tied some string around the box. “There,” he said. “Now we will not eat any more cookies.” “But we can cut the string and open the box,” said Toad. “That is true,” said Frog.

Winning on April 1 would secure the liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court for the 2026 and 2028 elections. That’s why Elon Musk is spending millions on this race. We need your help to elect Susan Crawford and stop a MAGA takeover of a battleground state: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

we're not throwing trans people under the bus for any fucking reason. None. There are two sides: the one that throws people under buses and the side that does not. Choose which one you are on.

The library and the post office are the only two systems we have that circulate things widely and to everyone, no matter who they are or what they believe. The library is the only one that, for now, is not forced to pay for itself at point of sale. Attacks on IMLS are attacks on every one of us.

IMLS defunding WILL affect your local library.

For anxious autistic people, punishments only feed their anxiety & stress as they are already anxious, which is why they are behaving the way they are. "Giving a choice, even “illusive” choice, is better than making demands." By @autsciperson.bsky.social: autisticscienceperson.com/2018/11/11/a...

White supremacy at work.

Thank you.

Listening to both heartwarming testimony from trans folk and their families and disheartening lies and fear mongering from anti-trans legislators and others. 6 hours of public hearing so far. Wisconsin friends please email your assembly reps and oppose Assembly bill 104.

Let's fucking go.

I have the best job. This puppy saw our tagline was “Open to All” so ran in our doors. He didn’t have a library card but was willing to work. #lpl #librariesareforeveryone

Ridiculous.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.”

I made this. (Not the dog.)

Agreed with Gillian here. If you called your Senator (or didn't) to tell them to vote against a trans sports ban, it's important that you also call them and thank them for their vote. NO Democrat broke on this. myreps.datamade.us

Deep cleaned all the bathrooms today including the kids (disgusting). Called my senators. Had coffee with a friend. Worked on the border of a crocheted blanket. Whitened my teeth. Took a nap. I would be amazing at retirement.

Useful scripts in this thread as well as further information on the damage this can do. If your senator is anything like mine they’re going straight voicemail so call and leave a message.

ok, cis folks—if you said you'd stand with trans folks, it's time. S.9 is the senate's sports ban bill—a big step to making trump’s executive order a federal law, which is much harder to undo. it can be stopped *monday.* short call scripts for dem & GOP senators ⬇️🧵 legiscan.com/US/bill/SB9/...

February wrap! Read these!

This week, every Wisconsin Republican in the House voted to gut federal funding for BadgerCare, putting thousands of seniors across the state at risk of losing their health care.

Out here putting events on my schedule for November like the world won’t have collapsed by then, call me an optimist

House Rs just passed the budget resolution, the first step in their process to enact a bill that'd kick millions off Medicaid & cut SNAP down to just $1.60 per person per meal on avg while cutting taxes for the top 0.1% by $278k - all while increasing the debt 🧵on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT

Is there a #crochetsky? Current birthday blanket underway for the almost 11.

It’s a lazy day for all of us.

There’s a crucial election coming up in a battleground state: The liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court is at risk. Elon Musk is not only determined to infiltrate every level of the federal government, he’s coming after our local elections, too. We’re not going to let him get away with it.

Finished last night.
