Yep. I live in Minnesota and when we got the trifecta, the Dems really went for it and got *a lot* accomplished. The GOP complained that they were "rushing into things". Heh.

Quick catch-up: 121 seats (with 2 to be declared) is absolutely devastating for the Conservatives. No one will have to take them seriously for a very long time. #UKGE2024 1/3

I used the phrase, "The scene of the crime" to our building's handyman to describe a plumbing leak. Based solely on this, he said I should write a mystery novel.

If you’ve never seen Dorothea Lange’s photographs of the World War II internment camps and the Japanese-Americans who were imprisoned there, today is a good day to see them and to commit to making sure this never happens again.

ICMYI I wrote about the importance of being a citizen archivist. We've seen so much incredible art and writing from marginalized people, and we need to preserve it in the face of a huge, well-funded backlash.
This is something concrete you personally can do!

This is predictable but so important: Pasteurizing milk kills the H5N1 bird flu virus that is circulating widely in dairy cattle. It's easy to take a 150-year-old technique that has saved countless lives for granted, but don't fool around with unpasteurized dairy products. 🧪

important to remember that, other than appointing judges, this was the biggest priority and sole legislative "achievement" of the 2017-2018 GOP trifecta, and candidate Trump is loudly promising to cut corporate taxes further as his would-be agency heads promise to gut enforcement

The States Project is one of the best bang-for-your-buck options for your campaign donations. Even beyond it, though, state legislatures deserve your attention. Next time you're tempted to send money to whoever's going to lose to MTG, send it instead to a contested state leg seat.

We apparently wiped out a strain of flu while mandatory masking for COVID was in effect.
I don't get the "oh it's just a cold" argument.
My neighbors don't want my cold either. I'll keep masking, thanks.

“Digital versions play more to a person's active curiosity than their passive curiosity. (With a newspaper that I can feel in my hands and physically turn its pages, for example, I'm more likely to scan a story I thought I had no interest in reading.)” ⬅️ Yes, this.
