So I think everyone knows what Chuck E. Cheese is but for non-parents who don't know what LifeTouch is, it's the company that for decades has had a near-monopoly on school pictures.
Finding out that top execs from both LifeTouch and Chuck E. Cheese are in the Epstein files has pissed me off in a way that I didn’t think was still possible.

One more thought about Bad Bunny.

If a performance is in Spanish and you don’t speak Spanish, there are two responses you can have.

A. Huh. I wish I spoke Spanish. That’d be cool. Maybe I should learn.

B. My lack of knowledge should dictate the decisions of others.

A is a more interesting life.

If your parents say things like “China is going to eliminate The Stanley Cup” you need to have the hard conversation about elder care solutions
Trump, in the middle of his latest unhinged Truth Social screed, claims that if Canada makes a trade deal with China, "the first thing China will do is terminate ALL Ice Hockey being played in Canada, and permanently eliminate The Stanley Cup."

Things are demonstrably less true if you have tell someone than if they see it for themselves:

- I'm sexy
- This is a fun party
- We're winning
The White House just sent a "Don't Panic" email. That'll do it

This is going to be a lot of the next phase, I would guess, especially in places where the local PD is willing to help. I'm not sure how to mount effective resistance in those places, but I'd love to hear if other places — even outside the US — have done something similar.
However my Internal ICE Sources say they’re having a field day outstate, picking up tons of people with zero local opposition. Nightmarish. I can’t believe I’m saying this but come back to Minneapolis where it’s a fair fight

Relatedly: If you want to follow Doug's lead, but don't know how/hate writing/get anxious about asking for help, DM me the details and I will write you something you can then edit to sound more like you.

I can't donate to every fundraiser, but I'm happy to help raise more funds this way!
swallowed my pride and sent an email to some relatives asking them to support our school fund

if anyone needs a template for a message for people who might be willing to help but just don't understand the need, here you go

@mattdoyle.bsky.social Any sense of why Kyle Duncan hasn't signed with anyone yet?

I think we need to post more of our wins vs ICE, at least I do. Northside RR successfully got a few abductions deterred this morning. We also have seen an uptick in folks joining doing stationary observation in the last week since we started doing that.

In Saint Paul a declaration of a State of Emergency also comes with an ordinance with a “shall cooperate with state and federal authorities”.

I don’t know if that’s the case for Walz but if it is… well you might like that reality even less than this one.
Axios reports @governorwalz.mn.gov won’t call an eviction moratorium because it is “legally fraught” yet the definition sure sounds like one. www.mprnews.org/story/2023/0...

Relatedly, I would love to know more celebs’ favorite Pokemon — especially athletes! It’s a harmless question that allows for a bit of personality to shine through.

(No one asked, but my first love was Charizard. Recently, I have been delighted anew by Farfetch’d and Sirfetch’d)
The AI ads have ground me down so much that when there was an ad for just the concept of Pokemon, I wanted to give it 500 Clios.

Robert Kraft has to watch his team get embarrassed AND worry that they could unredact the Epstein Files at any point. Talk about a rough day.

FYI: The little boy in Bad Bunny's #SuperBowl halftime show wasn't Liam Ramos as some have said, it was a child actor: Lincoln Fox www.instagram.com/the_lincfox/...

The AI de-aging of celebrities in all these Super Bowl ads is gross and actually looks awful. This trend can’t be over soon enough.

This is your reminder that the Star-Spangled Banner is a terrible song, doubly so if you sing it like a hymn instead of what it actually was: A drinking song.

Love,

Someone who sung it at professional sporting events dozens of times. But never slowly. Or in the original key.
