For those who have not followed Donny Dictator's exploits for years, a key thing to understand is that he loves bankruptcy. Sees it as a way of running up debt (someone else's money) and then walking away from most if not all of it. He sees it as a stiff and he loves to stiff.
I've been mentioning this privately to friends for months now. Wary to post anything about it online because it's a pretty big cart to drop in front of a midterms horse. We also need to be ready for it. So... heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/september-...

This is your regular reminder that almost every crazy thing Donny Dictator says or does is meant to distract the media and therefore public from the fact that his name appears thousands of times in the Epstein Files.

What a wonderful story. "What started as a desperate plea could so easily have gone sideways if we’d dismissed the neighbor’s concerns. But it turned out she simply needed to be heard, and isn’t that what we all all want and need, especially now?"
It started with a half dozen handwritten notes taped to car windows, each worded slightly differently. The gist was the same: Get lost! What came next shows what can happen when folks at cross purposes actually take the time to listen. pamschmid.substack.com/p/bridging-t...
Surprised how absolutely crushed I am by the passing of Dolly Parton. A true legend and beautiful soul. What a gift she gave us all, not just in music but how to handle fame with grace, humor, and humility.
It'd be kinda chic if someone would explain this most recent word meme to me and where it came from because it sure is everywhere and I feel kinda old for not having any idea why.
Patrick hates list posts, so he should ignore this. This is for the rest of you, especially those who ask "What have you been up to lately?" prologuist.blogspot.com/2026/08/ten-...

Just ate here for @bethanyg.bsky.social birthday. It is everything Dara says it is and more. The food. The service. The drinks... Perfect. Reasonably priced too — especially during Happy Hour. Highly, highly, recommended.
it's more than a restaurant review, it's a story about so many threads in the Twin Cities suddenly weaving together into something new -- the Bachelor Farmer crew, northern roots mandolin world, and never forget, Iowa and Minnesota dominate American pork! mspmag.com/eat-and-drin...
I hope Angie found out some things about Minnesotans tonight. We don't forget. We won't let others forget either.
Our daughter, who turned 18 this year, voted for the first time today. The world will begin slowly changing in the right direction now.
Yep. I'm a single issue voter on this one.
Senate primary here in MN tomorrow. Peggy Flanagan wants to dismantle ICE. Angie Craig supported a resolution thanking ICE for their service. Wants to reform ICE. Voted yes on Laken Riley Act, then said whoops. Given what’s happened here in 2026, it’s not all that complicated a choice.
I'm not scared of AI. I'm scared of the humans behind it. Very dangerous things are often very cool. "What we didn't realize..." is the warning phrase that should cause one to notice the danger. Instead, these people seem to only notice the cool. www.youtube.com/watch?v=87Dy...

Live a life that does not cause anyone to celebrate your death.
We often forget how inexpensive it is (often free, in fact) it is to completely make someone's day/week/year or, even, give them a memory they will cherish for life.

So, I broke down and bought an M5 MacBook Air today. Here's the deal: Costco has the 10CPU/10GPU 16GB/1TB model for $1149 (price good until 7/12). They will be selling at that price until out of stock. I bought the last one at my location. From Apple that model is $1599. Seemed a no brainer.

Now that Donny Dictator believes he has ended the Iran war he started to distract from the Epstein Files, he needs a new distraction so he's back to Minnesota arresting peaceful legal observers: sahanjournal.com/public-safet...

How to make a lifetime customer: Pressure warning went off on car I just bought in January, took it to Discount Tire, they diagnosed (nail), repaired the leak, and rotated the still good tires... FOR FREE. Did not get these tires there. Just pure good customer service. What we believe in.
