Self-driving SEMIS?! Terrifying times on multiple fronts
Self-driving semitrucks could hit Missouri roads under a bill that is gaining traction
Opponents worry about jobs, safety and who is legally responsible if the driverless vehicle causes injuries.

I'm trying to cancel a few subscriptions and monthly thingamabobs and I'm angry at myself for not doing this sooner, and also angry at how hard various entities make it to actual cancel them taking our monies. *screams into the void*

if someone punches your neighbor and you go to protect them, that does not make you a protester. that makes you someone who protects your neighbor.

i was talking with someone in the twin cities about how it’s not even accurate to call them protesters. they’re literally just people protecting their city from TERRORISTS.
Every time the Trump regime uses the words "funded protesters" and "outside agitators" news outlets need to cut to this photo from last week.

ICE has invaded these communities. Outside agitators don't show up in their fucking bathrobes.

After an insistent and cold middle-of-the-night Artie-needs-out moment, we all slept in this morning. I spent a half hour or so, the first one finally awake, just watching the dog breathing so peacefully beside me, the side of his head resting on the pillow like mine. So cozy and sweet.

Your regular reminder that chickpeas, tahini, mint, kale cumin, olive oil, and sundries remain good. Cukes too!

This visual analysis was tough to watch but I did find it extremely helpful and clarifying (and horrifying, once again, of course). 💔😡💔

Trump and Noem have unleashed angry, hateful trigger-happy clowns to harm the vulnerable and face no consequences.

They must face consequences.

On Fox 9 just now they interviewed a woman at the scene in Minneapolis. She says she’s not an activist but felt a call to action like she hasn’t felt since 9/11. She says she was raised to love America. She says she’s never felt scared of the government in her life, until now.

Shame on every member of Congress who won't make this stop
Saint Paul schools will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for optional online learning.

I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.

How I'm dealing with my stress: I bought a 3d printer and am producing 100 whistles at a time. 1000 heading to Minneapolis tomorrow.

It was taking me forever today to get home, and I just walked in the door a few minutes ago to find Joe had already started the dinner he purchased yesterday and I'd planned to make: tamales and Spanish rice and refried beans. The kitchen smells amazing and I am sitting on my butt :)
