Started today emceeing PanCAN’s #PurpleStride Minnesota, the biggest one-day fundraiser for pancreatic cancer research. It was a sea of purple in Como Park all morning. My cousin Kym (pictured) was the amazing lead organizer.

Police found Mitchell “dressed in all black clothing and a black hat…
She commented, ‘Clearly I’m not good at this.’”
Classic case of buying all the gear but not thinking through the activity involved. Anyone who shopped REI but hates camping gets it. startribune.com/dfl-state-sena…

Icehouse is one of my favorite spots for a lunch or happy hour. Really hope this gets figured out.

I am so proud of this program I did with Michele Norris. It is one of the most meaningful and moving conversations of which I’ve been a part. I hope you’ll take a look. youtu.be/GUKw_FAA-mY?si…

I’m very proud to call the yellow shirt guy in this video a friend. Joshua Will is a Minnesota comedy treasure.

Every other year, Eric Roper and I recoat the adirondack chairs we built together in spar urethane. It’s a smelly job, but keeps them looking like new.

Honored to be one part of the host committee for #TheHewingXchange this Earth Day weekend. People brought their gentle used clothes and swapped them with what others brought. A fun morning and a great, sustainable way to get some new threads. 😎

Nobody throws a Almanac watch party like Mary Lahammer.

Why doesn’t every conference bring in Danger Boat Productions and me? Who doesn’t like laughing? 🤔

“I wish I had more soft clothes,” I thought tonight.

Is this what getting old feels like?

President Rebecca Bergman announced today that she’ll retire as president of @Gustavus in 2025.
I am so lucky I served on the Board of Trustees during her tenure. She’s one of the greatest leaders the college has ever had; a model of grace and strength. Thank you Pres. Bergman.

Kudos to Max Nesterak for calling out Mpls Council members for being confused (or purposefully obfuscating) in the Lyft & Uber debate. I’m grateful for journalism that questions government narratives, regardless of political party/faction in power.

Started this glorious day leading an improv workshop at the College of Design’s “Fashion & Play” Symposium. Fun to work with barry kudrowitz again. Plus, it was one of the best dressed groups I’ve ever taught.
