When you're next furious that MN kids are going hungry, well, there's a fund for that; & when you're livid that brave observers may struggle with rent, there's one for that; & when you're heartbroken about pets being left behind when their owners are kidnapped, well, there's a fund for that, too.
go to standwithminnesota.com and pick someone on there and give them $5.
tomorrow go back and give someone else $5.
do it every day for a week and you will have made life immediately & materially better for 7 different people, at the cost of $35, and you will feel so much better than you do now.

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind.
It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty.
Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face.
Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

Current mood: Wondering where I could get an outdoor dog house today, and a heated pad, in case the possums want somewhere to hide from the cold.

I strongly believe that there is no billionaire alive who would not fall for the "paint a tunnel on a mountain" trick made popular by a cartoon coyote.

I have a single 2026 resolution and that's to be (a little) more social. Turns out, when you do most of your socializing on work trips and then largely stop traveling, you get pretty insular! Who knew! Anyway, brain kinda fizzled; if I left you on unread in 2025, it was me not you.

This is not a subtweet but if I come to your house at the holidays and ask if you have a little bit of feta I might have, and you say no but then later I find you in the back pantry gnawing on a big chunk of feta, I'm going to be pretty upset. This is not a subtweet.

Whether you celebrate it or not, a very happy "Christmas email from the CEO of every single company you ever had any interaction with, however long ago or tenuous it was" day, to you and yours 🎄

As someone unable not to say "CYBER" in a robot voice whenever he sees the word "cyber" written down, this has been a terribly inefficient week for me.

Psst. If you woke up feeling positive about yesterday's election results, then remembered things are still terrible and precarious and scary for a whole lot of people right now, donating to a local food bank is a good way to push back on that wave of dismay.

Now we get to see who ignores the "be a genuine, authentic person with tangible beliefs" and "don't throw trans people under the bus" lessons, here, and jumps instead to "make fun videos" because that's easier than legacy Dems changing tired old habits.

Already, six hundred political journalists are in their cars, fanning out to mom & pop diners across the country, to ask people there how terrified they are - on a scale of 1 to 10 - that New York City has a new mayor.

It's almost reassuring, watching 'Dem Strategists' cling desperately to "We dressed old Chuck-E-Cheese robots in blue ties, and loaded them with 3.5-inch floppy discs of 'we must move to the center' talking points."
The same sort of reassurance as feeling your guts gurgle after taking a laxative.

I'm no numbers guy, but it sure is fascinating seeing the Big Tech Companies announce their hefty revenues today, shortly after gnashing their teeth and wailing about how redundancies were a sad price to pay because of dwindling revenues.

In an ideal world I'd have the clever words to encourage the strong, capable, intelligent, talented, and ever-promising people around me to not give up hope, but I don't, so I'll just have to hope that they feel the love and support radiating out of me instead.
