Chicago born. Minnesota raised. Music fan- Springsteen, Prine, Joni, Dylan. You get the idea. Trying to keep my sanity in an age of unreason.

The Twin Cities Reader had David Carr. City Pages also did some fine work.

Saw Hamilton again last night. The only thing that could improve it would be to add this to the book.

I have heard it suggested that these discussions are primarily to determine the best timing for awarding her the Medal of Freedom.

So very sorry for your loss. Our critters don’t live long enough. It’s their only flaw, really.

Our cat, Ollie, was exhibiting similar symptoms. For what it is worth, I found ChatGPT helpful. I would describe symptoms & behaviors and it would tell me what to look for and do. I would not rely on it 100%, but it was a bit helpful between vet visits to have a bit more information.

Me : What is the most Susan Collins quote ever?” ChatGPT: “Collins told reporters she would vote "yes" to begin debate, but that she still had problems with the bill. She said she'd file several amendments to the measure, and is "leaning against" it on final passage unless it is further revised.”

A child was born today in Minnesota. That child has American citizenship. Another child was born in Montana. That child does not have America citizenship. Nobody knows what nation the child born in Montana is a citizen of. Lovely. Great work everybody. Just, great work!

How does that not elicit a follow up question?

It’s good that they took him alive. Questions to be answered include - who radicalized him? How did he end up this way?

A genius. And a miracle. So glad he went through hell and somehow came out on the other side. Damaged, but still sharing love and music.

Seems it’s past time for this divorcing, star power couple get a Bennifer/Bradjelina type hybrid name. D-lon? Trusk?

IMO it means different things to different people. Too fuzzy to be a meaningful or helpful starting place for discussion. Agree to disagree.

There is not “universal agreement” for the sum of two plus two anymore. So, respectfully, have to disagree.

A proud fan since ‘73. Love that he has grown, matured and only gotten more great. Still a lot of fun, too.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

If the U.S. government is going to take the position that, once removed from the United States, folks can’t be brought back, then it sure seems to me that federal courts should be reflexively and categorically barring *all* removals until they’re 100 percent certain that the removals are lawful.
