At what age or stage in life do you stop adding your children’s names to cards, gifts, etc? Grown and engaged 25 yr old? Prolly could stand alone now. 23 yr old who is single? Sigh. Why is it so hard to cut strings.

My face is sunburnt, my voice is hoarse and I didn’t get the tasks I needed done today. Instead I stood with my husband and daughter and two of her pals in protest. We danced and chanted in two towns. #NoKingsDay lit a spark that won’t soon go out.

Explaining things that make perfect sense in my head that stop others in their tracks who can’t see the connections is such a fascinating thing. I need a neuroscience teacher in my life.

I swear the most humbling parent moment is chatting with your adult kids about core childhood moments when their take is totally different from your own. I swear I did all that for you…didn’t I!?

Memorial Day Services: the band, aging color guard, taps, reading the names of the fallen…so good. But the program leader turned it into a church sermon. Discredits the service for me. Especially when Reagan quotes were used when Eisenhower should have been the choice. Soldiers deserve more

Sen Ron Johnson is deplorable. “I never really thought it was society’s job to care for other people’s children.” Calls himself both a Christian and public servant. No, sir, you are neither.

Yes, I still see cars in the parking lot at Target. But not my car. Same with Walmart, as long as I can find another alternative in my rural neck of the woods. Costco and local grocery stores, don’t fail me now!

They’re coming for the abortion pill. Project 2025 said they would, and now they are. We knew it was coming but it’s still so upsetting. Remember @plancpills.bsky.social is a resource for all of us. It’s going to be a long four years.

Cuts to Medicare? C’mon Congress, time to quote Gandolf here and say, “You shall not pass!”

Meanwhile Medicaid is proposed to be cut. Let the records show who supports taking money from those who need it most.

Dude is bypassing all the normal political visits with who were those considered allies and heading straight to the ones with the real estate deals and grifts that benefit him and his buds. It’s so gross and so visible - not even bothering to hide. #TrumpInQatar #TrumpInSaudiArabia

Listen to “This American Life” episode 859: Chaos Graph. One of the most complete, powerful, level bit of storytelling on the current state of affairs. #IraGlass

PBS Wisconsin is my favorite stream. #WisconsinFoodie seasons 14 and 15 hold up against any cable show. #ChefZahm is a gem

I wish Sen Van Hollen would have “accidentally” knocked the hat off of Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s newly shaved bald head just to drive home the captive point.

Seriously though, how are you functioning or future planning anything with this whacked out administration running the circus?

Trump’s out golfing with Saudi elites. Meanwhile, innocent people are locked up in Venezuela and everyday Americans are watching their retirement savings disappear. This isn’t leadership. It’s a betrayal.

I voted early this time so I could spend the entire day waiting and feeling helpless. Fate of a Wisconsin voter every two years.

I actually remember when election days were not a huge anxiety fest of emotions. When you had a favorite candidate but even if they lost you didn’t actually fear the consequences. I miss that.

Really enjoyed The Weekly Show Podcast with Ezra Klein and Jon Stewart talking about the messed up journey the rural Broadband law mapped to implementation. That’s the crap that needs to be fixed. Checks, sure, but roadblocks? Nutty. Biz writes the bills? No wonder.
