I'm just trying to survive in this world. And smell beautiful while doing so.
The hallway scene in War Dogs is my favorite part of the movie.

Miles Teller swing-strutting. Jonah's hand to his side & in his pocket cut. That perfect comedic timing. I just love it.

Watching Claire Danes on Good Hang with Amy Poehler & omg she never stops talking. Amy barely got any words in. It was all run-on sentences.

Wow. Most annoying guest. Martin Short is a close second though.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

Does this mean Texas gets invaded now? Or is that only after intrepid reporter Nick Shirley gets a scoop?

Something to keep in mind about Minnesotans protesting unarmed with guns being pointed at them is that they more or less ALL have access to a gun, but are choosing not to bring one.

Bravery isn't holding a gun. Bravery is standing up to other people holding a gun.

So the government shutdown doesn't affect the ICE thugs? Then we have no government. ABOLISH ICE and throw the trash administration in the dumpster.

A man assaulted Representative Ilhan Omar at her town hall, but she responded by dropping an f-bomb. Both sides need to tone things down.

Coming tomorrow, by someone who thinks of themself as a serious person.

UPS shareholders are thrilled to hear they're cutting 30,000 more jobs, after cutting 48,000 last year. Shares rose after the announcement.

I don't get it. I really don't.

This is no different than what the Trump regime is doing (and other administrations, both Democrat and Republican, have done). They are dehumanizing people based on their colour, or accent, or immigration status.

This post notes an LRAD was being loaded on an ICE truck, FWIW.
ALERT FOR TWIN CITIES PROTESTERS

There may be an LRAD in town, mounted in one of the ICE trucks.

An LRAD is a sonic cannon, capable of 160 dB at 1 meter, which can permanently deafen you and is well past the 140 dB pain point.

A little trick I learned with painting with acrylics is to use water color pencils when sketching on the canvas so it won't leave any smudges and will dissolve into the paint when you paint over it. Would have made my life easier to have learned this earlier haha xD

NEW: Judge Patrick Schiltz planned to be low-key chief.

That’s not how it worked out for the old-school conservative/two-time Scalia clerk, who is now threatening to hold ICE’s director in contempt amid Operation Metro Surge.

Judge Patrick Schiltz didn’t want attention. Then ICE surged into his city.
The low-key George W. Bush appointee confronting Trump’s immigration tactics is a veteran of the conservative legal movement.

Yup George…all true, but the “now” bit is wishful thinking

Impeachment requires a functioning Congress…& as long as TACO’s GOP’s in charge there, we don’t have that

Impeachment is, however, both necessary & inevitable IF we flip Congress in November

So let’s stay focused on voting rights 🤜🤛
