At this point, this is the only kind of energy I want from elected officials. Anything less is a joke.
Put this family up in the Governor’s Mansion and dare this administration to come get him, @governorwalz.mn.gov

Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”

Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

I think people often wonder this, and it's a great question, so let me explain the advantages of 3D printing whistles. There are many.

The 3D printing effort started from one of our organizers who started by sourcing mass-produced whistles.
I mean, are they really cheaper or easier to produce than just sourcing the right thing from a mass distributor? it's sweet but doesn't seem Pareto efficient, and I feel like that's important to the revolution

If you see this, don't participate. It's a rigged study by Lisa Littman and unethical researcher J. Michael Bailey meant to undermine access to care. Spread the word.

I'd like to propose that "F&ck ICE" become a new greeting. Or way of saying goodbye. "F*ck ICE! It's so great to see you!" Or "Have a great day! F%ck ICE!" (Maybe Frick ICE if you're talking to kids.) Who's in?

Please buy books that are coming out this year.

Doesn’t have to be mine. But there is a stellar release calendar this year especially of Black writers and it would be a shame if one of the fascist victories was people not buying those books (from the indies that are in the fight with us). #BookSky

Here are some ways to help Minnesota with all the essential but less visible needs.

But also, go get involved with your own community. Make new friends. Get those networks going. Learn what orgs in your city are already doing good work that needs support. Don't wait.

The Kansas bathroom bill applies to state government buildings. State Rep. Abi Boatman, a Wichita Democrat who is trans, was selected to fill a vacant seat earlier this month and it's believed this bill was specifically targeted at her. Disgusting and hateful.

My great-grandmother, Mama Cilla, always said: “You’ve got to love everybody.”

In a nation built on the backs of black and brown folks—our immigrant communities, we the people demand that ICE be dismantled & ABOLISHED.

I've ordered many cookies from this list in the last few years. It brings me so much joy to order from trans Scouts that I've never met and I've ordered for my son and his roommates, a friend's college-age kids, my niece.... Someone in your life needs cookies. Or they'll donate cookies to heroes!
