And it couldn't be happening to a more deserving person. I'm sure she will pop back up like a villain in a horror film. But for today, she can feel the despair most of us have been feeling for months.
I know the new person will be just as bad, but for today, let me imagine Noem flying back to her farm, world shrinking around her, as she takes a deep breath to steady herself for a lot of time with the husband who sat behind her as headline after headline about her affair is put on the record. 🫠
So the CEO wants this old name back. But two big shareholders want board reform after the DEI fumble. Those shareholders are public employee retirement plans.
As soon as the Supreme Court ruled against the tariffs, I told my 16yo we were invading Iran shortly. The toddler in charge always needs something to make him feel powerful.
I'm usually not cynical enough to predict these things. I am not happy that I was this time.
I just realized her brother plays basketball at my university.....
Can I add Taylor Heise? Not many people can play hockey in the Olympics without starting out in a super competitive, well funded league. She didn't have any of that. UMN grad marrying another.
Ofc Emmer has time to be there, holding a hockey stick. But no time to show up in his district
Map showing that the biggest city in Emmer's district was at best half red
I love how he pretends he is the real voice of Minnesota, when he doesn't even acknowledge the voices of the biggest city IN HIS DISTRICT.
Not the point, but this is at least the second conference where they purposely set her up to be lit from behind. Why?
The Hughes were at the Women's Gold medal game.
The Hughes brothers' mom is a player development coach for women's hockey. They know a little bit more about the world. And Victorian ghosts.
The tall curler was born in BC and now lives in Alberta. So I was definitely side-eying him even before the extra touch controversy.
One of my strongest beliefs is that the government shouldn't charge you to solve a problem if created. If we are all equal, we can demand more.
I am truly sorry for people that paid for a benefit they aren't getting, but nothing gets solved until people with money care.
They're also really good training for crop art, but that's a pretty niche reference.
LEGOs are for people who know they aren't going to be perfect enough for models. With LEGOs, you can get 90% of the directions right and if you get 10% wrong, it's still possible to fix.
She didn't get any points for them, either, right? Because they thought they were too dangerous to be encouraged?
To be fair, every time major magazines wrote about women in pop culture in the late 90s, they did this 'not like other girls' thing. I remember having to stop reading my boyfriend's magazines after I read like the 6th profile like this... About Denise Richards.
Minnesota's own Heise made the pass.
I've been trying to find the article that breaks down inequity in sports and Hilary Knight's access to ice time versus her brothers.
I get it. But I have a hard time letting that narrative block out someone like Heise, who grew up in a city in Minnesota with no hockey infrastructure and somehow made it work. Or Knight, who got engaged to a speed skater a few days ago.
Yeah. Hennepin has historically had some extra flexibility in regards to access, since they see themselves as sort of the "state library". So all libraries are flexible. Hennepin especially so.
But just like you can have someone verify you at the polls in MN, nearly all libraries have alternatives to government issued picture IDs.
Many require some picture ID/address verification at sign up, since libraries are primarily funded by county property taxes* but not every time you check out a book. So.... Like the initial voter registration most states have.
*This is the main model, don't make me explain library districts
Wisconsin has been shockingly resistant to legalization of pot because the tavern league cannot be defeated.
He's actually resting on the toy post-play. But Leo
This reminds me of how when Andre played a friend "Hey Ya" the first time, the friend told him that releasing it would ruin Andre's career. Art only moves forward when you challenge current norms.
Those aren't unionized so they don't pay well enough. And yet the coal miners he's pandering to still vote against unions.
Librarians were told to stop expecting users to think about their searches and make our platforms look easier.
We abandoned controlled vocabulary for the concept of natural language search, even though half our content doesn't appear in those searches (based on how it's sold to us).
Of course, I have done the tiniest bit of reading about Caribbean history, so maybe that helps with the visual literacy.
(Also, I have taken Spanish several times. But without regular exposure, it's pretty hard to gain solid skills.)
I don't speak Spanish. I could still tell what the story was. You didn't have to understand the words to enjoy that show, it was definitely multilingual, it's just that one of the literacies was visual.
