Did the dang thing this morning, and it was an easy in-and-out process at the early voting center. We were glad to @mplsrank3forchange.bsky.social and are hoping more neighbors will #Rank3 and leave Jacob off the ballot.
Also, much gratitude to @naomikritzer.bsky.social for sharing candidate info!🙏🏼

Such a sweet weekend. Got to meet a former colleague and his lovely family and share info + recommendations as they consider moving here to give their kiddos a better education than they're likely to get in the red state they're in. Made + shared treats to celebrate the occasion. Feelin' hope happy.

UPDATE: Clean bill of health, nails clipped, and vaccines re-upped - and without totally demolishing our budget.
What a relief! 💖

This sweet baby has to go in for a checkup today. She's playful and affectionate, and *very* interested in stealing her sister's food, so I think she's fine, but the possibility the vet could find something we can't afford to address is doing me a big stress. Plz send healthy, happy kitty vibes. 💖

With the MNDFL rescinding the endorsement for mayor and rejecting the appeal, 😤 I also updated this digital graphic. Plz feel free to save + share, and if you'd like the design files to print, get @ me.
Many thanks to @viamarsala18.bsky.social for the inspo + everyone who joined the collaboration.💖

Went on a fall color quest last week, and I'm still stunned by all the natural beauty and wildlife we saw. I hope we can get out for another kayak adventure while the leaves are popping on these cool, sunny days. 🛶🍁

Can't see the Super Harvest Moon yet because clouds are rude, so I am marking the occasion with a wee bit of freehand seasonal art. 🎃

So cool to hold this in my hand, and can't wait to share it! Heartfelt thanks to everyone who came together to fold + add in the insert updates (so awesome to meet you!), who offered feedback on the initial graphics, and worked together to make this a real, in-the-world thing. Love this community! 💗

Listen, I don't want to scare folks, but I do want people to be aware and prepared for a growing spike in COVID infections. I'm already hearing that multiple hospitals in the metro are full. People going to the ER are spending the day in hallways awaiting transfers, so please mask up + test often! 😷

Post-convention update. Found some better fonts + made the "don't" line increasingly transparent. Curious if you think it's worth creating a 1 - 2 - 3 element? I'm torn between thinking it could be clearer and then feeling like that could make the image overcomplicated and limit its utility?
