Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark.

(via WCCO reporter Caroline Cummings on X)
"We are devastated and heartbroken at the loss of our parents, Melissa and Mark. They were the bright lights at the center of our lives, and we can't believe they are gone. Their love for us was boundless. We miss them so much. "We want everyone to know that we are both safe and with loved ones. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received, and we appreciate your respect for our family's privacy as we grieve. "Our family would like to thank law enforcement for their swift action that saved others and for the coordination across communities that led to the arrest of the man who murdered our parents. We especially would like to thank the officers who were first on the scene to our parents' home and their heroic attempts to rescue our mom and dad. "Our parents touched so many lives, and they leave behind an incredible legacy of dedication to their community that will live on in us, their friends, their colleagues and co-workers, and every single person who knew and loved them. "If you would like to honor the memory of Mark and Melissa, please consider the following: • Plant a tree. • Visit a local park and make use of their amenities, especially a bike trail. • Pet a dog. A golden retriever is ideal, but any will do. • Tell your loved ones a cheesy dad joke and laugh about it. • Bake something — bread for Mark or a cake for Melissa, and share it with someone. • Try a new hobby and enjoy learning something. • Stand up for what you believe in, especially if that thing is justice and peace. "Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together. Hold your loved ones a little closer. Love your neighbors. Treat each other with kindness and respect. The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else."

Here are some texts I got from an immigration lawyer friend of mine. Shared with permission. Some of the bleakest shit I’ve ever heard.
Text reading: I had to come down to Los Angeles for Work and ended up trying to help with the raid last night. As a Bernie usefully. Waited by the entrance for detainees We were repeatedly denied access of any kind, and eventually LAPD force removed attorneys ice. Also tear gassed a baby under age two. Today they told us to come back at eight to see the clients, but they ever refused entry to us as well as politicians, including Jimmy, Gomez, and right now. They’re releasing some kind of gas, so the Attorneys can’t breathe Text reading: Post it so everyone knows. When we were trying to chant their rights ice honked so no one could hear.

Our feature artist/tutorial today is this fantastic HANDS tutorial by @GRIZandNORM. This beautifully illustrates how to suggest different levels of PINCH and TENSION, and how the hands WRAP. INVALUABLE! #characterdesign #animation #animationdev #anatomy #howtodraw #hands #manga

I can't believe people think that using LLMs to write isn't destroying their critical thinking abilities. I'm like 5% dumber just because of spellcheck.

This is terrorism. I see few people condemning an attack where elderly and children were set on fire.

If this is okay with you, do some serious soul searching.

Tiny NPCs for a @risingsand.glass thing.
Read Erj's greatest webcomic. 🤘#art
A panhandler, chilling with a beverage. A shirtless janitor. A group of children desperately chasing a wayward Frisbee. A sex worker is charmed by the infant child of a passing exhausted dad.

Since I've been on bluesky awhile it's time to share my favorite show pitch idea: Cathy, set in the 80s when the comic strip focused on the titular Cathy's life as a hectic 30-something office worker trying to juggle her career and personal life 👩‍💼
Sample drawing for my pitch: Cathy on the phone at work, looking through a stack of papers and running calculations. sample drawing for my pitch- Cathy in a stunning new year's eve ensemble, based directly on the comic strip Sample sketches for my pitch- Cathy and friends doing yoga, the hot new craze at the time

Corruption requires learned collaborators who will redefine terms in ways that coincidentally flatter and enable the corrupt.
ericlipton.nytimes.com Eric Lipton NYT @ericlipton.nytimes.com · May 12
Corruption requires explict quid pro quo. It is not corrupt to take an action that aligns with the interest of a person who gives you a gift, unless the official action was in direct response to that gift--a bribe. Terms matter. Accuracy and fairness matters. Regardless of what social media wants.

Some good news—official data released today shows US solar generation continues to grow rapidly and is on track to set new record highs. In March, solar output was up 35% compared to the same time last year!

One of the cartoons from Physics for Cats
Title: Soren Kierkegaard, 1843 Image: A three panel comic strip that shows Mr Kierkegaard saying "Life can only be understood backwards" as he walks from right to left through the three frames (i.e. against the usual order in which these panels would be read) A dog walks from left to right, saying: "But it must be lived forward"

Lowkey really enjoy this logo. Just give me a happy bird. This bird isn’t smug, he isn’t condescending, he just loves the game.

This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?

@georgeoconnor.bsky.social is drawing amazing pics of Each X-person EVERYDAY in the order they joined the team. He inspired me! ... I'm doing an Avenger (every other day?) as they joined. The main characters all became Avengers in issue one, thus, in no particular order I'm starting with Thor!
