I regularly see people wondering how it's possible that there are so many musicians and writers and film makers and artists from a tiny nation like Iceland.

And the answer is really simple: State funding for art education and artists. I literally get a salary from the government to write books.
I’m constantly astounded at the sheer level of artistic production coming out of Iceland. Novels, movies, music. Amazing.

Guys, I just can’t. After the baby, still sick, was released from the hospital, the regime immediately deported him and his mother, dumping them on the other side of the border with nothing but their commissary money.

Something’s gotta give. This is intolerable.

Anyway if the farm burns down I guess it was the weather.

It is creepy as a midwesterner to get repeat fire weather warnings, especially in winter! Like that’s just not been a thing in the Midwest until very recently.

This is how you do it
Someone recently told me that I’m not a unifier. That I’m divisive.

I know that. I am not trying to unify anyone with MAGA. I speak out against MAGA. I stand against their policies and their cruelty. I do not want to be united with that minority of voters.

They do not align with my values.

The Apostle Islands ice caves were open for only a day before the National Park Service announced a closure due to a winter storm.

Here’s what we saw at the caves on Monday. We’ll be back with updates on reopening.

If my dad wants me to get a new name, license, social security card, passport, nursing license, credit cards, etc; I suggest he is forced to spend the same amount of time, money, and headache to be allowed to vote and then shove his new voter registration card straight up his ass.

My actual father has been saying this publicly on FB.
the new Republican talking point is that it's insulting to complain about requiring women to show their birth certificate and passport in order to vote because they're smart enough to figure it out

There could not be more distance between this and the folks who say we should be run like a business. This was the Dem platform. Now look at Schumer, Jeffries, etc.
How far we have fallen, it’s heartbreaking.

Wow, Jesse Jackson.
He was a loud, unapologetic leader who taught this white girl some things. One of the very thick public leader strands throughout my life. He was also pretty funny when he wanted to be. RIP

There's this guy down the street from me who sells fruits and vegetables from his truck during the warm months, and I absolutely love that there's 20 years of Street View imagery of him in the same spot with the same truck, more permanent than most of the neighborhood's brick and mortar businesses.

I’m straight and my life is a shitshow
HELLO I WAS A QUEER TEEN IN THE 1990s AND THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST SOCIAL TRANSITION NOW ARE INDISTINGUISHABLE FROM THE ARGUMENTS AGAINST "LETTING" US BE (at the time, for me) GAY OR LESBIAN THEN.

They all rest on the belief that it's inherently better to be straight (then)/cis (now) and that's BS.
Hilary Cass here arguing for children to be prevented from being known by a preferred name or getting a haircut in case it encourages them to continue later in life to transition.

Hilary Cass acts like gender variant children should have the transness hazed out of them.

Public comment on Dr Oz's proposed rules to ban gender-affirming care for youth closes 2/17

One rule bans hospital-based care, the other eliminates Medicaid/CHIP coverage

Together they'd make care virtually unavailable nationwide, including in shield law states

👇🎯 "Democracy is a system in which parties lose elections"

We should stop tolerating claims about nonexistent voter fraud, neverending attempts to restrict suffrage & litigate electoral results, & lies about rigged elections. Other, more serious, actual democracies don't put up with any of this.
