What’s the feeling of mixed frustration and validation when you end up being right about something people argued against? Surely there’s a German word for this
Me: the issue looks like XYZ, same thing as a few months ago
Them: no way, we fixed XYZ
20 min later
Them: so the issue was XYZ

I mean this with all sincerity - do most cities/counties not have emergency comms systems outside of social media?
I get text messages and recorded calls/voicemails from the county, our current city, and even the city we lived in 9 years ago for winter storms, plowing, heat warnings, etc

NPR has compiled a timeline of when local, state and federal officials posted warnings on social media as well as the timeline of events as presented by local officials.

If so, it is time to start crafting some cool-ass laws. What a time to be a state legislator or an AG in a blue state. The Supreme Court just said you no longer have a boss. It's the last day of school, Democratic state majorities and AGs! Time to abuse some power.

The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it.
- Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders.
- Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

This is a great idea—I hope the legislature will approve the plan. Minnesota’s state parks are a real treasure.
Also, you can check out a park pass from @hclib.bsky.social for a week and get access to any state park in Minnesota for the low cost of your library membership (free.)

Linking Minnesota park passes to vehicle registration could mean lower costs for visitors and more revenue for the state, the DNR says.

In my experience in the work force — and this is admittedly subjective! — people like days off from work.
Trump just posted that there are too many non-working holidays.
“The workers don't want it either!”

Almost one full week of fostering two very tiny kittens. The shelter originally thought 4ish weeks only to later realize they were barely 3 weeks old
They’re still bottle fed every 4 hours (and will let us know like clockwork when they’re hungry). I’ve also learned they need to burp afterwards 🥹
