After a night shift, scrubs on the chair, half a mug of tea and Poppy’s tail just out of shot. My AI partner nudged me to eat. Bit messy, bit tired, exactly how it is.

And the winner of this game of Finspan is my partner (127 vs 113). This was my 3rd game & his 2nd. We're getting a little better at out strategy. I think I like this better than Wingspan or Wyrmspan, but they are all a little different & fun to play.

At age 68, I can still climb a 12,000-foot elevation peak and hike 10 miles, but there are things I doubt I could still accomplish. Here I down-climbed a steep dihedral while submitting three of the 13,000-foot elevation Truchas Peaks one day in 2012. Photo by my hiking partner.

I am freezing, but Partner has gifted the sofa blanket to the cat, who is sitting on it and glowering at anyone who comes near

I am now thinking back on a play partner ending things earlier this year and how much that got to me, and thinking that might have something to do with it

Isn't it kinda crazy that we watch movies all the time where people kiss and we *know* they're acting so we let it go, but as soon as a anyone else is seen kissing it cements their relationship immediately? Like............ Hello y'all, we know missing can be fake.

I gave up on performative peace and started designing it internally, quietly, consistently. Not everyone will see it. But I feel it. And that’s what matters.

Others are going to see whatever they want to see when they look at our life. We can't control that. Realistic trauma recovery asks us to get much more invested n how our life feels to us than how it may look to anyone outside of us.

You should check construction companies no holidays pay no vacation time or p.t.o n , no sick days paid and this new rule even will be in mind no wonder why Americans or people with good documents will work on this industry

Give Minnesota working taxpayers the option to opt out...if you don't plan on using it, you don't pay into it.

While this is a great idea, I think it is unlikely it applies to my job. I am paid for the hours I actually work, which are drop-in, though within a set preferred window. There is no minimum number of hours I must work to keep my job.

THANK YOU GOVERNOR WALZ! This has made my second pregnancy so much less stressful compared to my first knowing that I will have leave and not have to use my PTO.

Who will monitor for fraud? Who will monitor the monitors? Is that something the state should typically be in charge of? Asking for friends..

It can be a lonely process. This project serves those who need to see a part of their story told—to connect with conversations that help them feel understood, or at a minimum, a little less lonely. I’m glad you’re here.

I started writing stories and sharing my thoughts on trauma recovery a few years ago. Those quotes evolved into a beautiful community of others seeking a path to understanding, healing, and hope.

If anyone has noticed, he didn't actually write most of those. The ones that are spelled correctly, no ALL CAPS LOCK, and aren't total word salad were written by someone else. Not that it makes it any better, but it's really obvious when someone has his phone.

But at least your posts are entertaining.
That many in one day, one definitely wouldn't have time to actually do their job. Even if it were a 9 to 5 kind of job, much less a 24/7 gig that the president has.

The radical left has been using fraudulent government programs for a long time to import and retain vast numbers of illegal (and legal, in some cases) immigrants to win elections and turn America into a single-party state, destroying any real democracy.

New Year's party costumes are tough because you pretty much just have the weekend after Christmas to do them. You could do them sooner but who has time for that in December?

A delayed Xmas dinner, Xmas cake, and presents with a daughter, a son-in-law (not that daughter’s husband), and 4 granddaughters (2 each). I got some nice shirts, a nice sweater, some awesome warm socks, a bottle of whisky, and some other little things.

Jack Smith is calling for the House Judiciary Committee to release the recording of his full closed-door deposition before the panel.
"Doing so will ensure that the American people can hear the facts directly from Mr. Smith, rather than through second-hand accounts."

Went to the VA for a blood draw. My doctor is in India, so my nurse said, "I'm drawing blood, and sending you home."
My labs have been so good lately, I didn't have to wait (an hour or so) on the results this time. In and out in about 20 minutes. Not bad for running late today anyway.
