- My horse had an unexpected minor surgery yesterday to remove a growth that has been sent off for histopathology. The possibilities range from meh to manageable to very bad. I was not really expecting that and it's been a gut punch. Please send good thoughts her way.
- I truly hate autoDMs when you follow someone. It's an instant unfollow and block for me.
- Reposted by Katherine LockeRepublicans love adding seats to state Supreme Courts! They've done it three times in recent years. This latest court-packing plan will shift Utah's high court far to the right and possibly flip rulings on abortion and gerrymandering. Democrats should take note that Rs have deemed this acceptable!
- Reposted by Katherine Lockea woman reached out to donate 500,000 delta skymiles to get people home to MN as they are released from custody in TX. we're getting flights booked today. it should be enough to get at least 15 people home. delta should be doing for free since they take ICE money.

- Reposted by Katherine LockeLast week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong.

- Reposted by Katherine LockeI know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

- Reposted by Katherine LockeIt’s hard to know if people outside MN understand how much of life is grinding to a halt here because of Trump’s occupation. Schools have shut down, businesses are scaling back hours or closing because their employees aren’t safe. The whole city is weighted down.
- Every time I think I can't hate @johnfetterman.com more than I do, he opens a manhole to a new low I didn't even know existed. I mean, you have to give it to him. Everyone knows he's a horrible person. But does he stop? Rest on his laurels? No. He finds new ways of being horrible.
