This site is about to get real ugly. Before you read anything here tonight (tomorrow, this week), stop and ask yourself: Is this person in a position to know? Have they provided any evidence? What do they gain from sharing it? Do they really care if it’s true or false?

My amazing college roommate shot this today at her polling place in MN. Words to live by. (Yes, “judgment” is misspelled)

If you follow presidential politics online, chances are you’re familiar with Forest Lake native Aaron Rupar’s work.

White House altered record of Biden’s ‘garbage’ remarks despite stenographer concerns. The original transcript of the remarks before the White House press team edited it had Biden calling Trump “supporters” garbage, not “supporter’s” apnews.com/article/biden-gar…

I don’t think Wordle has ever been “weird.” That would be so funny right now.

What a weird and glorious night. Went to a local brewery (Metronome) to play some board games, instead caught an opera singer performing there, got offered free tix to Saturday’s @mnopera “Romeo & Juliet” and then watched the @Dodgers come from behind to win the World Series.
