Today is our 6 yr anniversary of the Covid shutdown. What was your experience?
“But but he’s not doing anything but proving he doesn’t have power as minority leader”
YES
he needs to put in on record
AND
These sorry sons of bitches should release a legislative agenda that feels like the RED FUCKING WEDDING for how they plan to never let a President be king again
"When Britain's most powerful political fixer was caught on an oligarch's boat in Corfu, we called it Yachtgate & moved on. The Epstein files now reveal the full picture: a web of Russian money, paedophile kompromat and New Labour access that shaped a decade of British politics, writes Tamsin Shaw."

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."
My homie said think like a farmer, not a hunter.
Plant seeds.
Grow a network.
Not sure who needs to hear this but billionaires have never and Will NEVER have your best interest in mind. Stop lining the pockets of Elon Musk by buying his trash heap EV , stop upgrading your iPhone every year...these ppl take your money and immediately put it into systems that are AGAINST YOU
Yes, I shouldn't have placed more work on teachers. The district admin could. Even at the state level.
Start the school year with a handout for parents. Give a list of gentle parenting resources.
I didn’t realize that Ring the company was a truncation of their full legal entity name:
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them, LLC
That Ring “search party” ad was unsubtle enough that even my 10yo watched it and was like “are they gonna use this for ICE?”
I just watched this yesterday and here we are in 2026 and they’re still trying. You all arrested Don for doing his job??

6 has the perfect crunchy edge.
"ICE will leave Minnesota if you hand over your voter rolls" tells you everything you need to know.
This was never about immigration or fraud. It was always about rigging elections.
The lesson: we don’t have to be close to be connected. We don’t have to be besties, but we do have to be in community.
5. Use boundaries like infrastructure: you can show up without being on-call.
6. Make repair normal: conflict isn’t failure; avoidance is.
7. Build systems bigger than your friend group so your friendships don’t become survival contracts.
2. Stop auditioning for besties. Go to be useful, not to find your people.
3. Take a role (setup, rides, childcare, notes, outreach) and do it reliably.
4. Practice low-stakes connection: learn names, say hi, be a familiar face.
1. Pick one place-based thing (a local org, mutual aid, arts, local politics, faith, or neighborhood stuff) and show up for 3 months because consistency matters.
So, how do you go from only focusing on friends to actually being in a community? Seven steps:
A lot of people burn out their friendships by treating a friend group like a full mutual-aid system. Friends can support you, but community is where we build shared systems, so the load doesn’t fall on a few people.
Look at Minnesota: when people take the streets together, they’re not all in perfect agreement, and they’re not all friends. They’re in coalition because what’s at stake is bigger than personal chemistry.
It asks us to tolerate disagreement and friction without accepting harm. Discomfort is part of it; boundaries and repair are part of it, too.
Your community will include people you don’t like, don’t align with, or wouldn’t choose as friends. Community isn’t about being besties—it’s about being accountable to each other.
Friends are people we choose to build closeness with. Community is the group of people we’re tied to by shared place, shared values, shared identity, or shared fate. And that tie comes with obligations: showing up, contributing, building infrastructure, and staying engaged.
Friendship is chosen; community is shared responsibility. Your community isn’t the same thing as your friend group, and your friend group can’t carry the full weight of community.
Did you ask those farmers why they voted to have women shot in the face and 5 yr olds kidnapped from school?
