He is definitely not an appealing to conservative candidate except for being white and not super young (He is 60).
But look at what Minnesota did under his governorship was all simple none flashy midwestern progressive values. Free school lunches, trans refuge status, abortions rights into law (as well as a supreme court case), funding for schools and legal weed. He is a progressive just not very flashy about it.
AOC would be great as a VP pick
I think the goofy dad demeanor is truly authentic and is disarming enough to get people to like him. Also I really enjoy his fisher stories where he tells the truth but makes it a little bigger or tuned to the audience. Since truth does not seem to matter anymore why not bend it a little bit
Well we can always hope for 2028.
I love Tim Walz as the anti-Trump. He has lots of experience as well as a great example of a true public servant. He isn’t rich and relies on the decades of public service he complete for his livelihood. As both a veteran and former public educator he can talk about how the cuts to the VA and Education departments are hurting everyone with some personal authority. Minnesota under his leadership got some massive progressive wins and minimized losses in 2024. Most importantly he looks like a Trump voter which apparently is needed for those people. Republicans are going full white male identity politics and he fits the bill.
I see they are trying to tie Tim Walz to Feed our Futures. I don’t know if it is going to work but it is expected.
If you are following the trial of Aimee Bock its pretty obvious that the way the law was written was suppose to give our food aid fast with checking afterwards. In the middle of global pandemic whether this a good idea or not is debatable but I think it was. Also it was a large operation which sued to keep itself open. If you are interested I recommend the Sahan Journal which has been doing some great coverage.
I was there that day. In the before time
At one point I had three accounts but am now down to two. I had one at Kbin.social which was my primary and then I had one specifically for browsing lemmynsfw. When kbin.social started having issues I created my midwest.social account. Kbin.social died so I am now back to two. There is nothing wrong with having a few as a backup if your instance goes down or to see a slightly different feed. I think a lot of people have multiple
Not sure about the brand but if it helps then it’s likely good
We got piles on my gardens which will get covered for composting in place for the rest of the year. Also our wildflower garden is pretty much untouched except a yearly mow to remove baby trees. So plenty of spots for bugs
I saw a few lightning bugs in my yard last year. My life goal have them consistently in my yard. Good thing this dovetails nicely with my other life goals of getting butterflies, bumblebees and birds in my yards
No. Get an Electric Mattress Pad. They last longer and since they are less flexible they can put larger heating elements in them
Better yet. Use both
Echenacia does has some immune boosting properties but it needs to be actual Echenacia. Most low quality herbal supplements are not what they are labeled. Since there are no regulations they can put whatever in there. If you really want to the actual benefits even make it yourself or get it from a higher quality sources. I am planning on making some whole plant Echenacia tincture this year for next winter
I feel like this is the story of the internet. Interesting niche site gets a little popular. Site gets purchased by giant. Giant cuts costs and removed interesting things about site. Site loses visits because it’s boring. Another round of cuts and the site is gone.
I miss weird Internet sites
I loved reading about their sports models and their model development. Polling was kind of interesting but their sports prediction was great.
Never for when you are in the office. Unless you can “work” by goofing around with coworkers or wandering around holding things while listening to podcasts
This when you pad your time and set hard boundaries for what you can do. I like to schedule emails for later in the day. It helps that I work from home
I want to be as efficient as possible for my job. So I can get as much done in as little amount of time as possible so I can get back to my life. Only goal
Ending DEI was it for me
I have been a big fan since its less confrontation and quieter than either coastal politics or southern politics. Its boring and effective
