Finally, finally got the new Minnesota flag. Look at this beauty!
Big, big crowds arriving at the #NoKings rally in Saint Paul, Minnesota. Also live music, free t-shirts, and lots of good vibes! 😊
Wow. I have been to a lot of protests o'er the years - a LOT. And this is by far the largest protest I have ever been to. This is crazy! #NoKings #SaintPaul #Minnesota
Tonight I'm caucusing for "Stand Up for Minnesota's Water." This important piece of legislation will protect Minnesota's lakes, rivers, and waterways from the harmful pollution of nickel and copper mines! @bwca.bsky.social @mplsdfl.org @dfl.org 💧
Thank you Minnesota Citizens Climate Lobby for hosting a booth at this year's Great Northern Festival here in Minneapolis! @cclusa.org empowers every day people to drive climate solutions in Congress.

Today @bwca.bsky.social is at The Great Northern Festival, going on now in Minneapolis! We're raising awareness about how climate change impacts the Minnesota Boundary Waters. And we're looking for community input on our new climate change division. #BWCA 🌲🛶
Really intense game of Tri-Ominos. Had to break into the second bag.
Imagine what it was like to step outside 100 years ago. I bet at any given moment the sky was full of birds. The trees teemed with song.
Here is a photo of our cat Bussie who we had to put to sleep today. She was a senior cat when we adopted her and we think (?) she was about 16. She was weird and antisocial but we tried to give her a good home to live out her final years. Rest in peace, Bussie. 😥

Minnesota continues to be a place of refuge for immigrants, refugees, and other marginalized communities. Looking for a way to get involved? Discover CAPI! We've got a great event coming up Sept 11 at the Luminary Arts Center in Mpls. Enjoy dance, song, theater, food & more! 💃🎭🥢 www.capiusa.org
This is so sad and unnecessary. 😥 I loved MathNet as a kid. Does anyone else remember that show? apnews.com/article
I want everyone to see how climate change is impacting Minnesota. Every summer, the city of Minneapolis gets blanketed by smoke from the fires in Canada. Our sky is white, and there is a residual haze. We cough, we get sore throats. Apparently we have the worst air quality in the world right now.
Minneapolis and Saint Paul! Friends of the Boundary Waters is at Wandering Leaf Brewing all this weekend. For every drink poured, $1 will go to protect the BWCA. Come have a pint or two! 🛶🍻 @bwca.bsky.social
We 💗 Immigrants! -Saint Paul, Minnesota #NoKings @indivisiblewmetro.bsky.social @indivistwincities.bsky.social @mn50501.bsky.social
There were rumors that the #NoKings protests in Minnesota had been canceled - not true! There were thousands of people at the Capitol, and elsewhere. @indivisiblewmetro.bsky.social @indivisible.org @indivistwincities.bsky.social
Incredible crowd at the Minnesota Capitol! 🔥 #NoKings @indivisible.org @mn50501.bsky.social
