This is deeply misleading. The agricultural section of the bill does NOT ban hemp-derived cannabinoid products that contain less than .3% THC total. www.cannabisbusinesstimes.com/hemp/news/15...

“We are disheartened to learn that Lord Killdude has broke his promise and has been shoving people in the volcano. If the murdergooner party is as moral as it once was, then they will publicly disavow Lord Killdude’s actions and work with us towards a bipartisan solution to the volcano problem”

Minnesota cis people, it's especially our time to stand up to do the work so our trans comrades don't need to spend further time and energy defending their right to exist!
Hi Minnesotan Bluesky:
The DFL has a well-known transphobia problem. I'm organizing to change the party platform in 2026 to be explicitly supportive of trans people in Minnesota. This will provide a basis for expelling transphobia from our party.

It's kinda comforting to know that some things never change and despite spending massive amounts of money on a new station hall, Amtrak still hasn't leveled up its queuing to the standard of your average kindergarten class

Dear NZ: fight civil asset forfeiture with everything you have in you. Love, the US
A concorning snippet, here:
"That campaign will receive $5.9 million from the Proceeds of Crime Fund - money taken from criminals - and the Government wants to make it faster for police use the proceeds of crime laws to seize assets from drug dealers."

Oh god I woke up today and despite taking prophylactic painkillers and all the muscle relaxants in the world, I am in agony AND my tinnitus and vertigo is awful, sigh. (Doesn't help that the mask straps pulled off my scopolamine patch yesterday and I didn't have an extra.)
