On March 26, 2026, during a debate on violence against women in Germany’s Bundestag, left-wing MP Kathrin Gebel was repeatedly interrupted by AfD MP Martin Reichardt. She responded: “Mr. Reichardt, the clitoris has 3,000 nerve endings, and you’re still more sensitive. That’s quite an achievement.”
I was told there is an “entire literature” that disproves birthright citizenship. Did I miss the discussion of this body of literature or is it being saved for a dramatic reveal?
I put off doing a thing for so long that I had built it up in my head until it was a Thing. In early March, I finally did the Thing. It was not as bad as I expected. In fact, it turned out very well. So if you are waiting for a sign to do the Thing that’s been weighing you down, maybe this is it.
A brisk day (feels like temp of 9 degrees) for the Minnesota United home opener but we were warmed to see the Andor-inspired tifo and the ICE out banner and warmed even more by the “F**k ICE” chant that started during the moment for Renee Good and Alex Pretti before kickoff. Minnesota: United.

It’s brown ale season, regardless of what the thermometer says.
After almost 18 months without a dog, we’ve made the leap again.
Hard to pick what the best part of the Irish Fair was today but Border Collies make everything better.
Just us and the crows out enjoying the heat of the evening. Sorry to any recent transplants to Minnesota who may not have realized just how hot and humid Minnesota can get in the summer.

How is it only Wednesday? This week (so far) calls for some self care in the form of Italian food, Amaro Manhattans, and Aperol spritzes.
We walked past a bridal shop with our daughter today. Someone was trying on a dress inside and our daughter asked to see pics of my wife’s wedding dress. When I showed her, her only comment was “Well, it was of its time wasn’t it?” 😳
It’s been a long year of a week so I’m trying a new gin to kick off the weekend.
Minnesota has rolled out the red carpet for Messi today. Couldn’t ask for better conditions or fans. #mnufc #minnesotanice
