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.

It’s me. I’m the problem (dog bathing version)

My confession (inc ALT text)

Please be gentle with me 🙏🏼
Okay, so I’m well aware this is a controversial take, but we don’t bathe our dogs unless absolutely necessary. Like, if they get skunked. Or roll in some dead or otherwise disgusting thing. I know, I know, many of you can’t handle having a “dirty” or “smelly” or otherwise unkempt dog in your home. I understand having to groom long haired dogs, but we don’t have any now. We have short-coated dogs who shed whenever. Our dogs hate being bathed. It’s a huge fight we usually lose. We obviously bathed each rescue pup when they got to our home, because of course. But I can count on one hand each time they’ve been bathed again. Fall into a bog (Sasha 😇) and you get a bath. Keely 😇 attacked a skunk in our yard, came running in with skunk blood & stink & rubbed it all over the house. Yes, she was bathed several times (I recommend the peroxide/baking soda/Dawn dishwashing detergent regimen). Roll in dead things (Tegan 😇) and I can’t be around you until you’re bathed. But we usually just brush our dogs (outside - the birds love the fur) and wipe areas that need it. And, honestly, we don’t notice any smell. Probably because our whole house smells the same! I’m sure other folks notice, but so what? We don’t invite anyone over anyway 🤷‍♀️ My only concern is with people who constantly bathe their dogs, like every week or two. That is so bad for their skin and causes so many allergic reactions. Please don’t do that. And the perfumes? Just no. If you want something that’s always pretty & smells good all the time, get a stuffed animal.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Fellow Wisconsinites, please pay attention and vote

Wisconsin is electing all of its sheriffs this year, and several swing counties, such as Kenosha and Sauk, are currently run by sheriffs who have signed on to a key program to collaborate with ICE.
In Criminal Justice Elections This Year, ICE Contracts Are on the Hot Seat
With roughly 2,400 elections for prosecutor and sheriff in 2026, Bolts reviews the map and early hotspots that will shape criminal punishment and law enforcement practices.

People are still being profiled.
People are still being wrongfully detained.
People still can’t go to work or school out of fear.
 
Do not look away and do not buy any political spin coming out of DHS.

Arresting journalists. Seizing ballots. Murdering protesters. Detaining children. It’s time to decide what your red line is.

Our amazing old lady coonie, Pippa, is coming up on 15yo & doing great. But the other day we found her halfway down these stairs & had to rescue her. So we had to get a barrier (at least visual) to keep her safe. We’ll have to remove for Murph’s stair zoomies, but we can do that 😊

Wisconsin, we *must* defeat Tom Tiffany for governor.
Might as well elect Ron Johnson or Trump for governor.
Tom Tiffany plus a GOP legislature would be absolutely devastating for WI.

I’m sure I speak for many #UglyDogs in saying I miss @blairbraverman.bsky.social and @quincemountain.bsky.social and all their amazing dogs. Whatever is happening in their private lives is private & none of our business. But they created a wonderful community that can endure on its own. I love us ❤️🙏🏼

I continue to believe that the fastest way to get Stephen Miller fired is to convince Trump that Miller's ICE operations are what cost him the Nobel Peace Prize.
