OK, but if it starred @petej-218.bsky.social, I would absolutely watch NCIS: Duluth.
I only watch CBS for sports and I'm always amazed at these copaganda franchises that have somehow spawned six different shows with twelve seasons each. And all of them called "NCIS: Duluth" or "Ambulance Firemen Marshals" or some shit.

Incredible that the #mnleg House GOP couldn’t find anyone to run in the 47A special election, and a stunning indictment of their chances at winning a majority next year.

One thing they don’t tell you about parenting is how much of your time is spent turning clothing (socks, pant legs, jacket sleeves, etc) right-side out.

“On Mom’s 42nd birthday, it’ll be a new day on Uranus.”

Our latest polling sees Trump's approval and economic ratings dip to new lows this term
40% approve of his overall job handling
36% approve of handling of economy
32% say national economy is good
On overall job rating, strong disapproval is 2x strong approval

I’m glad that the U of M, UMN Physicians, and Fairview are heading back to the table for honest-to-goodness mediation. For all parties - for the broader public interest in Minnesota - that’s the best next step. #mnleg

I will simply never get over how people think that your average Democrats are capable of massive conspiracies and coverups.
Five minutes at any local party meeting would show how foolish that is.

The most charitable way to describe the Lisa Demuth that I’ve seen as Minority Leader/Speaker is that she’s been completely incompetent at actually leading and has been captive to the most extreme Trumpist members of her caucus from the beginning.

Anyone who thinks you could stockpile a month of groceries on $80 a week is an idiot who hasn’t actually been grocery shopping in ages.
Rep. Clay Higgins of Louisiana blames SNAP recipients for not stockpiling a month's worth of food.
He ends his tweet with "stop smoking crack."

I commend the 86 Minnesota Legislators who are calling on President Trump to allow vital SNAP food assistance to continue for thousands of Minnesotans. Congress already provided contingency funds for this situation, but President Trump has ordered USDA not to use it.
