So I've tried to write multiple letter the night before I got on a rafting trip about the DFL Feminist Caucus event and the letters. And I am so angry that I can't even type something to the state DFL (because I'm that pissed). So I'm going to do it here as a thread because I do not have time.

That's actually the move to be honest. I've just learned that trying to do driver fights are a waste when there are so many distros that can fit my use case.

Folks...what's the meet and greet etiquette for small cons. Heading to #ConfluenceMN this weekend and wanting to meet with one of the special guests and not be too much of a kiss-a$%. 😅

Even if he takes Frey off his website his fans have both him AND Frey's signs up in the Ward so he is NOT hiding it well here.

This is one of the reasons why he's ranking first for me.

9/ That’s right — Jacob Frey wanted a “black friend” to run cover for him. Davis refused; the mayor acted like Davis owed him something for appointing him to the committee, in a cynically transactional calculation that twisted Davis’s volunteer public service into political fealty.

Me: "Its been a while since I've been in comics and I really wonder why this series I liked stopped publishing"

Me: *Google searches and is reminded of Diamond and is FULLY caught up on the shitshow post bankruptcy*

two men are sitting next to each other on a porch

Alt: The two main characters from the 1995 hood classic "Friday", in their iconic scene where seeing a dude (and Craig's former coworker) absolutely FUUUUUCKED up his eye, they lean back while saying "Daaaaaamn!" Similar to this scene, I didn't expect Diamond to be THIS bad (even knowing how slimy they are as a company). So many court cases and drama!!

I think mine would be Ifé of Yorubaland? I'd just want to see a big city was in Africa before chattel-slavery changed the continent.

Dolly Parton’s sister, Freida Parton, is asking for people to pray for her sister’s health.

Verified Facebook post by Freida Parton. The caption reads:

“Last night, I was up all night praying for my sister, Dolly. Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately. I truly believe in the power of prayer, and I have been lead to ask all of the world that loves her to be prayer warriors and pray with me. She’s strong, she’s loved, and with all the prayers being lifted for her, I know in my heart she’s going to be just fine. Godspeed, my sissy Dolly. We all love you! ❤️”

Below the caption is a photo of Dolly Parton standing outdoors in front of lush green ivy, hands clasped in prayer, wearing a shiny silver outfit with lace-trimmed sleeves, her signature blonde hair styled in soft curls, looking upward serenely.

So like y'all think Taylor let Hayley do a run through of that album or she realized that she'd have OPINONS on that one song so she just kept it to herself? 🤣

As I'm listening to JADE's new album "That's Showbiz Baby", your reminder that Destiny's Child via Kelly Rowland is the reason we got Little Mix.
