Organizer. Books. Thoughts are my own. Always send me pics of your dogs & cats. Minneapolis. MPLS DFL Vice Chair 💙
And who am I going to debrief with? I am a yapper.
we should reject waymo on the basis of supporting labor in minnesota, where uber and lyft drivers fought to score a statewide minimum wage! and don't forget that lyft contributed $10,000 to all of mpls this year to reelect mayor frey and get a city council allied with him. they are making moves
This, 1,000x this. I've been harping about Waymo being anti-worker and yet another way to funnel money upwards to the elite/oligarchs, and people react like I'm nuts. (It's also why I never use self-checkouts.)

Reminder, it is not normal to call for the execution of your political rivals. Stop normalizing it. It got our leaders killed. Every single leader must condemn this rhetoric. It leads to death. This is not an overreaction.

Who started a grad school application tonight? Me. Am I crazy? Maybe. But I have big plans for myself and the world.

I am home and safe. But let me be clear, I will be back out. I am in the right to stand up for my neighbors. I am no better for being a citizen. I am simply privileged. Thanks for all those who checked on me.

More to say later, I got pepper sprayed. Andrew got run over. We tried to protect our neighbors.

Me to me: I will not start another book tonight.
Narrator: that is a lie.

Not to brag, but my car BB is getting new tires after 98k miles. These Michelin tires were apparently set for 60k miles. I would like to thank them for many miles of service. Please to all the men who freaked out can now calm down.

Since I have been with Hector, we have read 4 books. He loves sleeping to audiobooks.

Me to my dad: what I want for Christmas and my birthday is for you to make my student loan payment. Oh and you and mom are not getting Christmas gifts this year. Sorry I am poor.
Dad: that’s okay. One day you won’t be poor.

198 books read so far. I think I may land around 220-230 books for the year. I can’t explain the joy I get when I read. Books make me giddy. I love to learn and get lost between the pages. I am not bored. I am not lost. The books are taking me to all the places #booksky #reader #wellread

Book 2 of reading Sunday!! I enjoyed this bc Jackie reimagined the role of First Lady. She made the White House the people’s house & used her strengths to help her husband’s agenda. Give this a read #booksky #nonfiction #history

Good to read if you want a broad overview of immigration policies in the US.

It is time to let her go from the party. @taylordahlin.com is right and we as party cannot afford to have her.

I will always recommend the power broker to anyone. Everyone needs to read it. Suck it up and read the 1200 pages. I know it is long, but it helps you understand the cities in US. Read it especially if you work in urban government #booksky

The mental image I have of learning that trump giving bubba a bj is unforgivable. But if I learned it, so do you. Release the files. This is the tip.

To have a village, you need to be a villager. What does that mean? It means showing up. I love that I am the friend that is called when they are sick to watch their kid or watch their pets. This has kept me afloat while I have looked for full time work. I help my friends clean & call them. Show up.

Trans and non-binary DFL’ers are all too often there for the party in its greatest time of need. DFL leadership is all too often nowhere to found in ours.

Join us in supporting A Better DFL to help create a party that works for all us ❤️
