Minka’s Evening Report: 4 walks today! Sniffed a LOT. Saw human frens Ray, Charlotte, & Susie. Saw a Yorkie that’s about Ally’s size but has Maggie’s coloring. Been seeing LOTS of these critters & they hurt if you step on them or try to eat them. Later, frens!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: If you truly believe that a shrinking population is a problem, you would not be deporting immigrants to gulags in El Salvador. You also wouldn't be stripping government programs that help families, or pushing against paid family leave.

In Iran if a 12-year-old girl is raped and impregnated by her father, she must carry the baby to term, or be thrown in prison for life. Wait, sorry, no. That's Mississippi.

Look at the we-don’t-give-a-shit-heedlessness of this official statement. A whole cabinet department without ordinary shame.

Not enough people talk about growing into adulthood, expecting to discover that your childhood assessments of adults were way off course, only to find that your ten and eleven year old self were right the whole time.

Requiring a birth certificate, Real ID, or passport to purchase a gun could reduce fraudulent purchases and ensure buyers meet legal requirements… And should be just as essential as requiring identification for voting. WHO AGREES?! 🤚

I probably shouldn't have tanked my algorithms while thinking about raising money for a $100,000 surgery, but my mental health really needed a break. I'm doing a lot better but have lost ALL algorithmic power, & this would have been a reach even then. It's a huge amount & not even the full cost.

Cody Balmer, 38, jumped a fence and managed to evade state troopers as he broke into Josh Shapiro’s house and set the fire. He fled the scene and was arrested in Harrisburg. www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/u...

The attempt to burn down the Pennsylvania Governor's mansion is pretty clearly an assassination attempt, and it's likely an antisemitic hate crime. It should be referred to that way by political media.

The Supreme Court granted Trump de facto impunity for his personal crimes ... and then expected him to obey their judicial orders? Impunity is impunity.

One minute Trump had us assembling iPhones and building robots, and now that’s off and he wants us to be coal miners instead.

Grateful that @governor.pa.gov and his family are safe after an apparent act of arson at his residence. Acts of violence have no place in our politics. Those responsible should be held accountable.

If the president can spend a quarter of his days in office golfing, corporations can give workers a four-day work week.

I know times are bad because any date from the future (2034, 2078, 2026) sounds like it could be the title of a post-apocalyptic movie.

Good way to see the current tariffs, as of literally today, is no tariffs on high value add manufactured goods marketed to middle and upper middle classes. Massive tariffs for cheap consumer items which amount to the biggest economic privilege of working class/middle class life in US.

Hey MSM – here's a career-making question for you to point blank ask RFKjr: "Please give the American public a succinct summary of the scientific method." He can't answer it.
