A senior at the Macalester political science alumni mixer said she came to talk to me because she thought my outfit was cool which meant I was cool.
I am cool and I'm glad the thought into my outfit worked. 😎

Some positive news for a change.
Minnesota’s laws protecting the rights of transgender people are worthless if those laws aren’t applied and enforced.
That’s why I admire attorneys like Sara Jane Baldwin at @genderjustice.us, relentlessly pursuing justice.

I post for work about the horrors going on in the world. Please forgive me if I don't talk about it on my personal socials as well. I'm trying to strike a balance. I promise I care. I'm just inundated and I try not to let myself despair too much about how impossible it all feels.

Happy budget forecast day to all who celebrate. Let's see if things got better or worse (it almost certainly got worse; Trump keeps cutting federal funding)

Voting for the Laken Riley Act directly led to what’s happening now with ICE in Minneapolis.
You had a chance to stand up for our neighbors then. Posting is not going to help them now. What’s the plan to actually do something?

I’ve got news for you, Mr. President: in Minnesota, we stick up for our neighbors. And our Somali community isn’t going anywhere.
Your dangerous attacks on immigrants in my state and across the country are putting lives and families at risk.

Somali Minnesotans are cherished members of our communities – small business owners, doctors, teachers, honors students, artists, athletes and more. I stand firmly with Somali Minnesotans and MN’s of all backgrounds, and will continue to condemn this – and any – disgusting attack on our neighbors.

Carter really ensured Frey couldn't speak for him on the issue of police presence during ICE raids, and I found it incredibly funny. Not June 3rd Lake and Bloomington raid haunting the press conference narrative.
