My brother on July 5, 2021, a week and a half away from his final birthday — a faithful and true portrait by my uncle.

Every time I come here to check in, which isn’t often, I have about 42 notifications and most of them are pornbots “liking” one of my grief posts I wrote after my brother died. Anyway, it’s good to see so many people migrating to BlueSky. I’m over there with the same handle.

@ReproResearcher @umnmedschool This is such great news all around — for your students, for their future patients, for the community, and for the profession! Best wishes as you embark on the next stage of your career.

Excited to share I have accepted an offer for a tenure-track assistant professor role at the @umnmedschool in the Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Women’s Health! I’ll be staying in Minneapolis, my home, and continuing to do research with and in communities I love 💕

MPD has sat on a warrant for this white man’s arrest since JULY, they refused to execute the warrant citing the most absurd reasoning, and this Black man was shot as a result of this negligence, completely failed by this system. youtube.com/watch?v=g-RPTu…

(9/X) How hard would it be for the Atlantic to decide "We are living under the threat of fascism, maybe we'll dial the percentage of articles we do about campus wokism down to 20% of all articles"?

@roblevine82 It’s so bad.

@roblevine82 he’s on Twitter pleading with the state’s most toxic characters begging them to read and weigh in

A lot is on the line this November, including our Senate DFL Majority, which has allowed us to protect reproductive freedom, advance policies to make it easier to get a roof over your head, expand voting rights, and so much more. We must elect @AnnJSMN to continue our work (🧵)

@TGOT_msp @justplainbob And: “parents with higher socioeconomic status are less likely than parents of lower income or educational attainment to plan to vaccinate their children.” hollingscancercenter.musc.edu/news/archive/2…

@TGOT_msp @justplainbob Blows my mind that there’s a vaccine that prevents cancer—CANCER!—but parents of millions of teens have no intention of getting their kids vaccinated.

This is astounding. This is the cancer that killed my younger sister, long before the vaccine was available.

If you’re in line to vote for Jacob Frey to be the next indicted mayor, stay in line!

startribune.com/speeding-motor… "Park Avenue was converted from a two-way street to a one-way mini-freeway in the late 1940s to accommodate suburban commuters before Interstate 35W opened a decade later." Let's discuss what I35 did to Southside's Black community for a moment:

Neighbors say Big Al is losing business not only because of his sign but bc he’s an asshole. I'm back on Twitter to beg @johnnyasheville to come out of retirement and fill in some gaps: what bridges did this guy burn? And how much did he get in PPP funds? startribune.com/tolkkinen-inte…

@IanColdwater I'm not over here much these days (thank you for that Bluesky invite way back when!) but have utmost admiration for how you work in community and clearly show up for others. I know you're widely appreciated for your tech skills, but it's your compassion that shines through to me

@samanthaklein and he thinks of himself as a "social moderate"

@WentRogue Wow, so that's so pro-life.

"A whole lot of pro-abortion people need to go die or leave the state," says Steve Pape, a candidate for the Minnesota state legislature #mnleg minnesotareformer.com/2024/09/09/swi…

@13wildhare yeah, this is what passes for "social moderate"?

@sallyjos @CyranoKale Wow. I wonder if he had some falling out with PLAM leadership?

@CyranoKale Thanks for the idea for this Bluestem Prairie post: Lost in Prinsburg: former New Republican MNHouse member Tim Miller leaves PLAM Action, moves family into RV - #mnhouse #mnleg #reproductivefreedom tinyurl.com/5b7a87as

Former #mnhouse member Tim Miller, family decide to live in their RV. Miller recently left his job at PLAM Action and is studying to become an RV technician ... #MovingOnUp willmarradio.com/news/tim-mille…

A man WOULD tweet this before googling

Go to the WNBA page on ESPN.com. Their headline: "Clark drops 25 in Fever loss.'' Not, "Collier drops 26 in Lynx victory."
