The sooner we realize that our elected representatives have never acted on the public's behalf.
The sooner we can vote in those that will.

Incredibly sad. He was the son of the Meskwaki Nations Police Chief - the settlement is about 20 minutes from my home town. Condolences to the Bunn and Howard families. The other soldier killed was from Iowa as well, but the name has not been released yet.

On the interesting saga that is Iowa weather: It was -5f when I got up - late, btw...kept hitting snooze. Couldn't get up the hill to my apt. last night because of the snow. Now at work at the 2nd job with the cold blowing in whenever someone opens the front door. Why do I still live here?🥶❄️🧊

I am vehemently PRO adopt! Save the puppies and kitties (and other animals) in the shelters. If you can't or don't want an animal, support the shelters with donations!
There are not just pit bulls (best dog we’ve ever had FWIW) or chihuahuas or GSDs in shelters.

The situation is so grave that FRENCHIES and DOODLES and GOLDENS and FLOOFY terriers are there too.

Their parents have often been deported or died or lost their homes.

Stop. Buying. Dogs.

Adopt.

If you’re looking for something to do, start working on overturning citizens united in your state. States control the power corporations have. Take their political power away with a ballot initiative. Here’s how: open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
How to Get Rid of "Citizens United"
We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way.

Regardless of all of the inherent symbolism and history of the color, indigo is one of my absolute favorite colors to paint with.

Mpls Mayor Jacob Frey: "What we are seeing again & again is discrimination only to the extent that it applies to certain groups. So they're discriminating only as it applies to Latinos and Somalis ... you can't do that. You can't do that in Minneapolis. You can't do there anywhere in this country."
