Courage!

This back back with hockey scores is a sign I should walk my dog, work on the avoided presentation, and eat my teeny tiny poppyseed cake.

It is *so* cute.

Well drat.

Chris Kluwe for Assembly Chris Kluwe for Assembly's campaign

So, uh, gotta do the campaign fundraising stuff because it’s gotta get done.

Who wants to chip in $4.20?

Good job! Someone has to do it.

Today is day 140 of the ICE occupation of MN.

Cases like these are why it feels like every Minnesotan is raising mutual aid rent relief.

A tiiiiny little poppyseed pound cake baked in a pyrex bowl.

My SIL's almond poppyseed cake makes enough batter that if you use small loaf pans to bake it, you get a third tiny lil pyrex dish cake, like so. It only takes 13 minutes to bake so you get to pre-cake your cake.

Yesss

... ... so how about sauerkraut crockery...

Beef bullion in a paper cup at a Partick Thistle game ca 2005. Wasn't even a little tasty but the circumstances were so unhinged it is a... real memory.

You have not lived until a retired Scottish union organizer hollers "away tae fuck ya fuckin' baldie bastert" at a referee next to you at a game.

I think you can defend that thesis.

If someone on the Wild wants to disrupt my anxiety baking with a goal I won't be sad.

CHAOS MAYBE

Yessss

Someone has to do it...

What if, and I'm just spitballing here, some of those GOPers decided to just vote Democrat? If they have to be wooed with increasingly right movement, I don't think they're actually that worried about fascism.

Sadly, yeah.

OK folks on the back of the depressing news about law enforcement's immediate response to the Hortman assassination I'll remind you. There's no being nice enough in the world that will save us from fascist violence.

Oh that was ugly.

Yesss

I will need a beer to enjoy being distracted from the conference presentation writing.

I love my job AND BUT ALSO it's only a few weeks and I get to be home for summer and I can't waaaaait.

Je suis NOT PLEASED COME ON NOW

For. Real.

A bowl of chicken stew thing with a boatload of red NM chile in the broth and avocado in the garnish. Side of Fritos because I'm forever midwestern.

Wild v Stars game.

Trying com up with a positive statement for a homesick Minnesotan to make. I'm going with "like hockey, dinner is better if it's served both red and green."

Whew! Situation resolved!

ESPN is telling me the Wild game starts at 7.30pm MST or 8pm MST depending on where I'm trying to watch and it is currently... 7.40pm here and this game is definitely not on my screen distracting me from writing a conference presentation cmon now folks why do I pay a ruinous subscription fee?

Are you sure it's not the perfect angel baybee in him? I think it's the perfect angel baybee.

hey so

I'm no longer patrolling, but I'm still involved in ICE resistance and helping people recover from the occupation

I'm part of the group organizing this
