Asked a worker at H&M if they had any parachute pants and she goes, 'oh, they're in the junior's section because they're for younger people.' I smiled, bought 3 pairs and walked out the door like Julia f'ing Roberts.

It’s taken courage to publicly back the blue for the last few years. This week showed us the best of them. And there are many more like Ruge, Elmstrand & Finseth. I hope part of their legacy is to make it OK to openly support law enforcement again. The good ones. They need it.
Leaving my grandma’s senior living home in Morris, MN today.. we met and talked with 104 yr old David Jergenson, a WWII veteran. Not many of these heros still with us. Thank you for your service, sir. 🇺🇸
That’s my kid in the hotel hot tub telling a bunch of girls he’s 14 (he’s not) and his name is Josh (it’s not) and does anyone know of a good boys-only boarding school…
There's no better evidence that NBA officiating is an absolute joke than the unwritten, universally accepted rule that players need to reach superstar status in order to 'earn' calls. Dude hung on Ant's arm all the way to the basket - F'ING CALL IT

This is a handwritten note from a co-worker who saw me struggling today. She told me what she loves about me- the kinds of things people usually save for funerals. I will cherish this note forever. I hope sharing this inspires others to do the same. Thank you,

In what would be his final months, our friend Steve Frazier truly was at peace.. and many of you helped him get there. From all of us

- thank you for lifting this sweet man’s spirit day in and day out. It meant everything to him. ❤️
Born and raised in MN but I didn’t discover the north shore until much later in life. Go check it out if you can. It’s so incredibly beautiful, it’s almost other worldly.
Wanted: Farm family who will put my kids to work for 72 hours so the next time I roll out their chore list they throw their arms around me and weep with gratitude.
Just released: Burnsville shooting search warrant
Details confirm officers were responding to a 911 call about alleged sexual assault. Those 3 heroes gave their lives trying to protect 7 children from a monster.

NBC will not use word ‘riot’ - only ‘protest.’ The words the media chooses are important. Which is why I will call the destructive, criminal actions, riots. The actual protesters deserve better.
This will guide our reporting in MN. “While the situation on the ground in Minneapolis is fluid, and there has been violence, it is most accurate at this time to describe what is happening there as "protests"--not riots.”

On the first day of home school my child said to me.. I CAN'T DO THIS THE DOGS WON'T STOP BARKING THE IPAD IS GLITCHING AND YOU'RE MAKING EVERYTHING WORSE MOM!... and a partridge in a pear tree. 😆😭
It's hard to be heartfelt in a tweet but I have to say THANK YOU to healthcare workers and teachers/school staff. It's such a mess right now, but every day I'm seeing very weary people working hard to keep this thing on the rails.

The last time I was this stressed on a Saturday night I was at a high school party my friend Lisa yelled COPS! we all scattered into the woods I curled up in the fetal position and cried until the sun came up. Go Wolves.

When you finish running 26.2 miles but then your wife forgets where she parked the car and you end up walking in circles up and down the hills of downtown Duluth for 40 more minutes. 🤦♀️
“4 Oakdale officers were unable to safely retreat due to incoming gunfire”.
Four more heroes responded to a domestic call Monday night in the metro only this time the officers survived so their story didn’t get as much attention. Shame on all of us.
NEWS RELEASE: A man is in custody after firing at officers during a standoff in Oakdale late Monday night.
Just before 10:00 pm on March 11, 2024, Oakdale officers were called to a domestic dispute near the 100 block of Greystone Avenue. The 911 caller expressed concern that the
Mom was 18 when she came here from Korea with only the clothes on her back. Taught herself English watching daytime soaps. She knew how to work hard and sacrificed so much for us. Still does. My heart is so grateful for her every day. Happy Mother's Day, Mom!❤️
Not to brag.. but my 71-year old mom just came home with a Samurai Sword she bought at a garage sale for $3 that she's going to use to cut weeds in our garden.

For real thx Dr. Nelson & nurses at mngi, you’re total pros. 90% colorectal cancer is preventable/procedure is painless. Pls get your bum checked. 😊
Daughter: What are you doing?
Me: What I do every week, adding an ice cube to the orchid you got me last year for Mother's Day.

Me: 😕
Daughter: MOM!! It's PLASTIC!
Nothing to see here. Just my 72yr old mom bringing home a trunk full of watercress that she spent 2 hours harvesting from the local creek that will casually show up in our dinner salad tonight.
“HEY!! Can you stop fighting for one damn minute and hug so I can put this on social media and people will think I’m a really good mom?”

Minnesotans, please go home. It’s time to restore peace on our streets and in our neighborhoods. The situation has become dangerous for Minnesotans and first responders.

Price surging? Sounds like price gouging. Last time I went to Wendy's there were 2 employees and they still had me order from the kiosk. It was $60 for 2 adults and 2 kids for basic meals. I would stop eating at any place that price surged on principle alone.
Not to brag but I just spent my dinner break in a random parking lot scarfing down 4 day old tuna salad with a fork from the dishwasher that may or may not be clean.
I’m making a ‘Welcome to Minnesota’ basket for out of state friends. I have Abdallah chocolates, Salted Nut Roll, 1919 Root Beer.. what else should I add?

These updates are so hard. BCA now confirms Ofcrs Ruge/Elmstrand were in the home for hours negotiating w/gunman when he opened fire w/o warning. They were shot again running to the SWAT vehicle. Adam Finseth died helping them. Gunman fired 100+ rounds.
Always remember them. 🙏
This girl! I did my first smelling salts with you and then got pranked into belting out a wretched solo of Free Fallin so now we’re pretty much bonded for life. 😊
I’m not gonna tell anyone how to feel after that loss. It was awful. They punched hard and we didn’t punch back. Like at all. But I’m not gonna fall back into old MN sports narratives. We’re still gonna win the series - and I honestly wouldn’t trade this ride for anything.
Haven't had time to cry since Tuesday morning, but this broke the dam. We have a lot to learn and a long way to go to create real change but this is how we start. Love you, Minnesota.
