The fuck we do.
I'll send it to her!
She's interested in giving it a read if you'd like it considered.
Saw Jess there, too! Did you catch her at Chicken and Pickle in OP recently?
Also, that's a great piece. I may run it past my partner to see how she'd feel about a reprint. Frigg is her baby.
I didn't realize we were neighbors! Odds are good we've crossed paths at one of the various rallies.
Jess Piper
Went to see @piperformissouri.bsky.social last night. She was awesome, of course. The Q&A was interesting as well, but one thing I noticed jumped out: every man who asked a question prefaced it with his own "expertise" regarding the subject of the question. None of the women did.
Ron Howard as Opie Taylor
James Talarico
James Talarico is cute. Cute like: if I didn't know that Opie grew up to be Ron Howard, I could believe that he grew up to be James Talarico.
Jesse Jackson appeared on Sesame Street in 1973.
During his appearance, he led a group of children in reciting his well-known poem βI Am Somebody,β a message focused on self-worth and empowerment

Kinda weird that the first name of one of the sponsors is misspelled (assuming that's the former finance chair of the RNC).
At some point, it'll stop blowing my mind that People is now a publication with serious reporting.

My vision of the perfect #SuperBowl, a thread (cont.):
3/3 Overtime: repeat above until word reaches players that NBC is no longer televising. Patriots take a knee in their own end zone for a safety. Seahawks win 2-0.

My vision of the perfect #SuperBowl, a thread (cont.):
2/3 Play as normal (but do NOT score) until players get word that commercial break is over. Next play, go back to FUCK ICE formation. Repeat until halftime. #BadBunny concert. Second half: repeat the first half.

My vision of the perfect #SuperBowl, a thread:
1/3 Kickoff: the receiving team catches the ball, then the 22 players each walk into positions to spell out FUCK ICE. They stay there until they get word that NBC has cut to commercial. Player with the ball takes a knee.
I suspect the largest group of people that the SAVE Act would disenfranchise is married women who took their husbands' last names. Welcome to The Handmaid's Tale.
Prisons?
Rent and groceries?
I absolutely did not see People Magazine becoming a go-to source of reporting. But here we are, and good on them.
What would it take to use RICO to disband ICE?
I thought the Ms were getting the Comp B?
That was my first thought: as a starting point, use their document against them ias a checklist to undo what's been done.
Indie booksellers in Minneapolis and St. Paul have joined community efforts to fight ICE.
I 100% assumed you were talking about Mark Cuban.
Sounds like you need to reach out to Elizabeth West.
