Only surprise for me is that it didnt happen sooner. Somewhat assumed they might extend her last fall during/right after the great 2024 run. #EqualTimeSoccer gophersports.com/news/2025/2/...

HOT TAKE: There is basically no where *on earth* where townhomes are “too dense”. This is why statewide reform is almost certainly necessary. Townhomes are the kind of gentle density that should be allowed virtually everywhere. www.twincities.com/2025/02/12/b...

Pounce is almost 8 years old. Has never done the “make a nest” move in his life. But his even crazier older sister Monaco does it all the time. Apparently still learning new tricks.

I talked to @mprnews.org about trans athletics and Trump’s cruelty. Give it a listen.

Trans people and trans athletes deserve the chance to participate in the sports they are passionate about the same as anyone else. These moves are terrible and short sighted.

Today we saw hospitals in Democratic states with trans sanctuary laws announce that they would pre-comply with Donald Trump’s demand to stop providing gender affirming care to those under 19. This is disgraceful. Pre-compliance with fascism is compliance. It is collaboration. Trans liberation now.

Just a quick reminder that all the issues that we face under Trumpism are intended to destroy commonality and peace. Fascism divides through a torrent of terror and division. We can recognize it and fight against it. But to do so we need a liberation effort that is fully interconnected.
