Minnesota just launched our statewide paid leave program.

Starting today new parents, small business owners, and people recovering from illness or injury will have the security to take needed time off work without risking their paycheck.

My furnace was blowing cold air so I went and looked at the burner and it was sooooo dusty in there. Some kind of spider had made a little disco ball nest.

Someone very dear to me trusted me with something sacred and I realized, just now, that I have become the adult my child self would’ve felt safe with.

And that’s a fucking win in my book.

Keep growing and evolving. Give the young people the strength and space they need. ❤️❤️❤️

After a nearly 60 degree Christmas day we're now getting some fluffy snow that won't stick because it's still about 40 right now. At the end of December.
