We’ll get this list sorted out then make it super public. Serve ICE Gestapo at your own financial peril, friends! We will not forget.
A lot of businesses serving ICE agents in the Twin Cities are going to be in for a rude awakening. I already have a list of businesses that I will never patronize and I’m sure a bunch of others do, too. I know this info is being collected, but I haven’t even seen campaigns to share anything yet.

I'm having a hard time writing this... Our cat Nyx died last night during an emergency vet visit. This country being what it is, we now owe $1,100 to the vet. Normally I'd take the payment plan, but paying within 30 days is the only way we can have Nyx's ashes.

ESPECIALLY NOW in a world completely drowning in propaganda and misinformation and disinformation it is SO IMPORTANT to cite our sources and ask people to do so as well.
We HAVE to know where information comes from and we have to always be firm about asking.

Warning for pet owners.
So... TIL that the bacteria which can grow in dog shampoo can give your poor baby a skin infection REAL fast.
Poor Davos is getting THREE baths this week bc he needs his medicated shampoo AND he has to wear PAJAMAS (instead of the sweatshirts which he prefers) so he can't scratch himself.

Every other social media site has been enshittified by algorithms. The USP of this place is that it is social media as it used to be, as it should be - where there isn't a rinky-dink computer programme getting between you and your friends.
Serious word of advice to newbies. The Discover Feed. Never use it. Waste of time. The Following Feed is what you need; all the posts from the people you follow in the order they posted them.
I recommend removing the Discover Feed by clicking on the # in the top right to manage your Feeds list.

crazy that they made a water fireplace
Here is a video of a frozen creek that had begun to thaw, and the water was flowing beneath the thin ice on top. I took this because it was soothing and wonderfully bloopy and I wanted to listen to it for hours. You are all welcome to enjoy it, too. Let your brain settle here and rest for a moment.
