OPINION: "And for all the talk about saving the American people money by gutting this agency, I can tell you that the federal government cutting AmeriCorps is the equivalent of me deciding to save money by not spending $10," Kevin Edwards writes.

"Petite" sizes often don't take plus-sized shorter women into account, while "Curvy" sizes rarely acknowledge that plus-size women aren't always tall, so I'd like to propose a new women's clothing size category - Little Teapot, for those of us who are short AND stout

🎶It’s beginning to look a lot like #Fishmas🎶

There’s no better fish to kick off this year’s #25DaysofFishmas than the aptly-named Christmas darter (Etheostoma hopkinsi)! We get our road trip started down in the southeastern US with this small species of fish who has big holiday spirit all year long

The Nutcracker? Psh, I prefer The Shellcracker!

Other common names for the redear sunfish include “shellcracker” (from the specialized teeth in their throat that enable them to crush the shells of snails + mussels) and “stumpknocker” (from their tendency to congregate around logs) #25DaysofFishmas

1/ Today, ProPublica is running a piece I've been working on for a bit. It's about what happened with a devastating wave of bird flu earlier this year, as egg prices hit record highs.

And it's a story that illuminates the ways the U.S. is failing to control what could become the next pandemic. 🧵

We’re led by warmongers & cowards.

They have no intention of stopping our civilisation slamming into a wall because they were put in place by the forces profiting from it.

None of our children get to survive unless we take the money out of politics & end this relentless ascent of psychopaths.

This is the last post that Representative Hortman made before she was assassinated.
Next Monday, we will finish the work of the 2025 legislative session.

In addition to balancing the budget, DFLers successfully protected nearly all of our 2023 accomplishments, and we will continue to fight for a future where everyone can get ahead – not just billionaires and big corporations.

If 102-year-old Kurt Goldschmidt, a survivor of the Holocaust, says "no kings" you'd best get up and stand up for your rights before it's too late. Mr. Goldschmidt knows all too well what he's seeing in Trump's America. It was an honor to stand with him today. #NoKingsInAmerica
