Today is the 5 year anniversary to when I slowly started losing my mind during the pandemic and began dressing up as works of art.

As my Twitter account has long been abandoned, why not make a thread of my madness on BlueSky?

This was “The Maid” by Wilhelm August Lebrecht Amberg, from 1862

So much more to do, but some updates on what’s been done.

St. Paul bans ICE face coverings, requires identifying badges
The ordinance requires law enforcement, including ICE and Customs and Border Protection agents, to work without identity-obscuring masks.

I finally kinda snapped at work today and told one of the supervisors in an email how undervalued our leadership team makes me and my teammates feel.

I don’t know that they’ll care. But it felt good to at least say how I feel.

Some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses
Someone doused Renee Good’s Minneapolis memorial and a nearby pile of wood with gasoline and started a fire at about 9 p.m. Tuesday.

Damage was minimal but police are investigating.

This GOOD BOY ran onto the course during the Women’s Cross-Country Skiing Team Sprint event, crossing the finish line and being automatically recorded by OMEGA’s photofinish camera 😆

Hey Twin Cities peeps:

Who do you use for doing your taxes?

The gal I used is cutting loose most of her clients so I gotta find someone (or something) else!

I finally binged Heated Rivalry while doing laundry today.

I thought it was fine, although I don’t think this one is a rewatch for me. But then again very few shows are 🙃
A coworker told me she is on her 5th time rewatching Heated Rivalry.

Apparently this is a show I need to check out?

Non-Minnesotans, be clear on this: the *one and only* thing they do is racial profiling. The *only* thing. Ask anyone here! If you look nonwhite, Latino particularly, ICE will target you. It’s really as simple as that
Homan: "When they say 'stop racial profiling' -- that's just not occurring. ICE will briefly detain and question somebody based on reasonable suspicion. It has nothing to do with racial profiling."

Franzi Schimmer captured this Grizzly bear in Brooks Falls, Alaska just floating along, tippy-tapping down the river, browsing the salmon.

Prior to hibernation, up to 40% of a bear's body mass is fat, which is less dense than water (~0.9 g/cm^2), so the murder-monster is also a floaty-boaty.

Ducks still make me think of @danawessel.bsky.social
Today I saw sleeping ducks and they were the cutest little things, just snoozing away in the sunshine on an ice-covered pond next to Long Meadow Lake.

Hug your kids or they'll grow up to be ICE agents.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

Is Benihana the most romantic Valentine’s Day dinner location? No.

But hey, I am a supportive spouse. If he wants a glowing pink flaming onion volcano that sounds like a choo-choo train, he’s getting a glowing pink flaming onion volcano that sounds like a choo-choo train

(Seriously, what is this?)

Courts have ruled 4,400 times that ICE jailed people illegally. It hasn’t stopped.

The decisions amount to a huge legal rebuke, but the administration has continued jailing people indefinitely.

Baked some apple turnovers for Valentine’s Day.

Are apple turnovers Valentine’s Day related? No.

Are they delicious? Yes.

So that’s really all that matters 💕

Ah yes. Nothing says Happy Valentine’s Day quite like a crucifix thong

Best Valentine’s Day gift ever! 💕
