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.

You don't owe shit to your family if all you got growing up was mocked, not heard, their toxic political views. and are expected to help at the drop of a hat because "family".

Good parents and family don't put conditions on love.

The tragic death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year old mother fatally shot by ICE, shows that ICE can’t be reformed and must be abolished.

I’ll be introducing the Abolish ICE Act as a step toward justice, accountability, and humanity in our immigration policy.

Time to melt ICE.

THEY'VE PUT ME ON THE POCKETSTATION COOP. I'M BEING RENDERED IN A 32 BY 32 GRID OF MONOCHROME PIXELS. THE BOYS BACK AT QUANTICO SAID THEY'RE GOING TO RELOCATE ME TO A "DOKO DEMO ISSYO" UNTIL THEY CAN GET THIS STRAIGHTENED OUT.

In Diddy Kong Racing DS, the message when connection is lost during Download Play is "LOST ALL CHILDREN". The cartridge is internally called a "parent" and the downloaded instances its "children". While this would make sense to the developers, it has the potential to confuse or scare players.

If I'm ever asked to be a presenter at the ENNIEs or Origins or the like, I will absolutely have to have this jacket.

I also have a whole belief that Crown Royal should be awarded a Lifetime Achievement Award for all those years of making sweet dice bags, but that's a soapbox for another day.

@tiltyhouse.com you mentioned last night you wished a beyblade anime was less Kaiju and more Prince of Tennis. Good news, the currently airing Beyblade X anime is very much grounded like sports anime with the battle spirit shonen overtones. Its fun and does provide realistic adjacent battles

@desertbus.org could speedrun race menuing Smoke and Mirrors to the Desert Bus and the goal being the first Bus Stop. It gives you long enough to talk about DB20 and do tomfoolery @gamesdonequick.com #desertbus #speedrun
