To wrap up on a fun note: The silliest part of all this was opting-in to donate tissue to the UMN Bio Bank where it could be used for research. Basically, I donated my tits to science. You're freaking welcome ✨

It's twisted that some routine messages may cost $49, let alone being told 12 days after the policy starts, @AllinaHealth.

“Journalism positions itself as a first draft of history, but if you do not have an inclusive workforce, if you do not reflect the reality of the country, what you actually have is the first draft of historical fiction.”

I talk about this *constantly* with my peers / girlfriend / literally anyone who will listen.
higher rates mean I can take on fewer assignments, which in turn = better, more thorough work, always. unfortunately, high-paying assignments are few and far between.

Round of applause for the incredible work being recognized 👏🏼
I couldn't be more honored to have been a judge for the first time this year. There's so much excellent work out there that makes me feel slightly more optimistic about the *media* and *world* out there, so thank you.

Campaign flyers are arriving in mailboxes. Instead of just admiring them and filing them away in your filing cabinet for voting day, can you also snap pictures of the front and back and share them with us/Minn Post? We are collecting them for science!

John Edwards and I are back out on the Lyndale and 27th median to discuss the Hennepin County traffic data, post-Lyndale safety improvements. Since our May 2022 recording, I have lost my Lyndale hat.
NEW EPISODE: Traffic on Lyndale Ave has done the unthinkable: it now stops for pedestrians. @MelodySWV and I talk about the street conversion that proved the traffic engineers wrong.
