Spokesperson for smart, humane urban rat control. 🐀 City council member in Ferndale MI. ❤️ Dogs, old houses, trees, farms. Marketing & biz consultant professionally.
There are only a few more weeks until election day, and I will absolutely miss the innovative ways that Ferndale embraces the election season. #ratsagainstlauramikulski #rats #ferndalenormal

Trump In Oct 2024: Kamala Harris is lying. I have nothing to do with Project 2025.

Trump In Oct 2025: I’m meeting today with Russ Vought to implement Project 2025.

We need to stop the behind-the-scenes gaslighting and have a full-frontal showdown with this dude.

Somewhere between campaigning, council meetings, and neighborhood rat patrols, I guess this was inevitable.

I’ll admit — trading cards might be a way more fun campaign giveaway than yard signs. 😉

THESE RATS ARE OUT OF CONTROL.
...Also I love it, whoever made this thank you, it made my day!

I held off a day because I'm honestly overwhelmed by this.
My biggest regret from my time on council is how this was handled, and seeing the building sit idle and deteriorate has been a constant reminder. Kulick is more than a building; it holds history, memory, and community sentiment.

It's been quite some time since we did a #Ferndale rat patrol presentation. I'll be presenting at the Ferndale library Tuesday 9/9 from 6-7:30PM on how to prevent and eliminate rats around your property, and I'd love to see you there! Free rat traps in limited quantities to attendees

Yesterday, Maurene Comey, who prosecuted the Epstein case, was summarily fired from SDNY. Her letter to colleagues pulls no punches. "Fear is the tool of a tyrant, wielded to suppress independent thought."

I kinda can't believe I'm doing this again. One more round of council if I get my 100+ signatures before Monday.

The right-wing backlash against #Superman has happened before.

Here’s my @vanityfair.com report w/ the full history —starting with April 1940, when the official SS newspaper attacked the comic book hero & its creators.

Plus, that time Superman fought the KKK…

Being in public service shouldn't mean being the public's punching bag.

This photo was meant to celebrate a small, joyful moment. But the comments — pulled directly from Warren Mayor Lori M. Stone's page — are a reminder of how quickly public officials are dehumanized online. #politics

TL;DR: Oakland County is more than doubling the fees it charges #Ferndale and other cities for property assessments—jumping from $17.98 to $30.86 per parcel. Ferndale’s annual cost will rise by over $100,000, with no added services. Commissioner Charlie Cavell voted no on this increase—thank him.

Based on this outfit I think I've been doing Easter all wrong.

Endangered species act: You can't "'harass, harm, pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect' plants and animals on the verge of extinction."

Trump admin: "I mean, what is HARM anyway..."

Like they don't NEED that forest, right?

Trump officials say destroying endangered species’ habitats isn’t ‘harm’
A proposed rule would narrow the definition of harm under the Endangered Species Act and could open the door to more mining, construction and other activities.

Me: the easter bunny might bring you a chocolate bunny if you were good. Were you good?
Child: no.
Me: well I guess none for you, but I might get one because I was pretty good.
Child: you know, sharing is caring mom.

This White House post can now be used as clear evidence of contempt by the Administration.
The U.S. Constitution's Due Process Clause, found in both the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, ensures that no one can be deprived of life, liberty, or property without due process of law.
This is some sick shit

Detroit finally has an ordinance that allows chickens, and Southfield too. Ferndale did it in 2012 and we have been a go-to city to see how to do it well.

It's nice to have beefcake in this article with me, she's a great example of how chickens can live a long life. #chickens
