Left my Neb home, came back, left again for Duluth.
Writing/sass/marketing/dogs. Was always a journo first. Past: @nptelegraph @owhnews @unl_CoJMC

I know dogs don't yawn for all the same reasons as us but mine just yawned as my fav local band took the stage and I am lowkey offended

Here's to the cub journo in her 20s who swore she'd never become friends with sources because that's "unethical," the job that changed her life and the greatest friends it gave her ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹❤️‍🩹

Considering I was terrified of losing a friend on our honeymoon and Beau was apparently terrified of getting that text at our wedding, burying him the two days before my shower isn't the worst timing but got damn

I pay what I owe.

Tomorrow I will wire transfer to the IRS

$288,000,000.00

This country has done so much for me, I’m proud to pay my taxes every single year.

@Mr_Fudgie @NEBRASKAlandDAY Isn't this year's act a guy who started in hip-hop and moved over to country? #HowHardCanItBe

[Tamara @SignedTammy]

OK, we know @NEBRASKAlandDAY s historically gets good up-and-coming country acts, and we know they ONLY do country concerts. Under that criteria, I think @Mr_Fudgie 's last act should be helping the new guy get Beyonce for 2025 🤠🤠🤠

LGTBQ affirming
Women ordination
That but it still emphasizes Jesus and the gospels, no fluff/lukewarm preaching
Commitment to social justice
Addresses past controversies/crimes in a meaningful way that brings positive change
Which I've found! ☺️

If you were looking for a new church community to be a part of, what would your non-negotiables be?

@Spencer_Gray @hankgreen Advertisers leaving a social media platform for *any reason at all* no matter what, and choosing to spend their dollars elsewhere is free speech. And a free market. If the results of free speech and a free market upset people or hurt the platform, that doesn't make it was free.

If you have not talked to your parents about the internet, please do. We're coming up on another election year, and if the last 2 taught us anything, it's that it's as important to check in on our parents' online dealings as it is our teens.

My mother officially follows an influencer. It's an ex-Amish man who "makes Tiktok videos" about being Amish, leaving, etc. However, Mom still has barely, if any knowledge about what Q Anon is. And she knows to talk to her *actual* financial advisor before investing in crypto 🫡

[Hank Green @hankgreen]

A comedian ruining his relationship with a large portion of his fanbase because he wanted to be like all of the other boring-ass Netflix Special "You Cant Tell Jokes Anymore" crowd is actually just depressing.

Your queerness, dear one—and I know you don't want to own queerness—is a gift. It is a beautiful and holy part of who you are, who God made you to be.
It won't go away because God doesn't fix what isn't broken. 2/

You'll never believe what comes up for 2001 ...

Watching two couples/four of your closest friends who are in their 30s do, "In sickness and in health," is not the premarital counseling I would recommend. I hope that stereotypical "tough first year of marriage" is easier than the year we're engaged.

Srsly just kept hearing Taaaammmeee Jansen in my head in a VERY Minnesotan/Scandinavian accent, and nope. Not doing that! I already didn't like my nickname & didn't wanna make people change but time to do it!

[Tamara @SignedTammy]

Going to start going by my first name all the time everywhere (even on this God forsaken site), in preparation for changing my last name in '24.

Also I don't think I can change my handle because I *may or may not have* created this account under an old work email lolllll

@43County @dirkchatelain Because the family trauma.

There are so many people dressed in all red on the Big Ten Network. I’m blown away! Shoutout to all the Husker fans that showed their support for women’s athletics and the Nebraska Volleyball team. @HuskerVB

@tim_sprouls None of those on this trip, but a black bear DID run out in front of us near Orr the last trip 😅

[Tamara @SignedTammy]

We've done Ely, Grand Marais and the entire North Shore a few times these last 3 years, but today we finally did the "blink twice" drive through Cook @tim_sprouls
