Introduction 🧵
I'm a tall Millennial cishet white woman in #Wisconsin. I'm married with 2 littles (Little Mouse and Littlest Mouse). I'm a pharmacist, doing formulary management & have worked in retail.

I'm a WI sports fan and love classic rock music (Queen ftw) and bar trivia.
Just watched Brian Banks tonight with Mr. Mouse. Aldis Hodge continues to be amazing at the whole acting gig. I enjoyed it - and California Innocence Project seems like a tremendous org.

a big runoff last night, in New Orleans:

Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.

So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.

Duncan, a political newcomer and former prisoner, defeated incumbent Darren Lombard by a wide margin in Saturday's runoff.

1/ Egalitarianism should begin at home. I link to this article by @bencasselman.bsky.social in light of the communications between Larry Summers and Jeffrey Epstein that have just been released. The released emails and the fact of friendship are vile.

Such a fun Prince (or artist fka Prince) story. #MusicSky
Y’all wanna hear a wild story? Charlie is right — this medley Prince made 30 years ago, blending many of his greatest hits & fan favorites into an extended mashup, is one of the most fun “only Prince could do this” things he made in the 90s. BUT: he told us he was gonna do it. In an AOL chat room…
Unpopular opinion: the Purple Medley is one of the best things Prince ever did.

Dose 37 tomorrow. Have been plateauing for the past month and will be increasing to 1.7 mg tomorrow, with some nerves over possible due effects.

Still maintaining my weight loss, but stress (work stuff, mostly) has been a challenge too.

Still at ~45 lb down since March. #WeightLoss
Dose 31 today if my #WeightLoss journey. The past month has been challenging - work and family stress, but still (slowly) moving forward.

Down 45 lb since March. Still on 1 mg with some nausea, so I'd rather not further dose escalate since this is working. 🐢
Dose 26 yesterday of my #WeightLoss journey, and still on 1 mg weekly.

Down 38.5 lb over the past 6 months.

Out for hibachi dinner tonight with Mr. Mouse. Some delicious mules on the drink menu - one cranberry/vanilla and one spiced apple.

Might try to recreate these as mocktails at home. 🤔

NEW from @emtseffos.bsky.social: "I’m proud to be a Democrat. But I’m also furious. Furious at the complacency, the calculation, and the careerism that treats politics like a game...while people’s lives hang in the balance."

Let's recombobulate:

Democrats' complacency is not cutting it. We need to crawl underneath and fix what’s broken.

"This could take down Democrats, too."

I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.

Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

In the last known image of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald, you can see the structural fatigue where she had started sagging in the middle. Freaky!
