Oh dear: GOP-endorsed MN senate candidate tweeted out a map purporting to show "crime in Minneapolis... Out of control." It was actually a map of drinking fountains in the city.

Love this by @HewittSTrib in his review of Dogland: “every single dog is somebody’s Best in Show.” 👏

Public leaders deserve our support as they lead our communities. No one should face any online abuse, particularly women & people from diverse backgrounds. Am so impressed by Her Excellency Mary Simon's continued leadership as #WeDeserveBetter. @EqualVoiceCA @GGCanada

Happy Reading Month, Minnesota! Last year, we took action to get every single student in Minnesota reading at or above grade level, including putting more resources behind school libraries. Thank you to all the educators helping our kids learn to read – and love to read.

2023 was an eventful year for @rogerfedererfdn! The highlight was my family’s visit to Lesotho. Over the year, 115 new preschool classes were created and the private sector raised $3.5 million for early education. See below for more on the entire School Readiness Initiative⬇️

White Bear Lake educator Karin Hogen has spent at least $1,000 on classroom supplies each of the past 15 years. Thank you @MaryKunesh9 for your bill establishing a state tax refund for these expenses. It's a small token of appreciation, but one that's needed! #mnleg #edmnvotes

Especially popular in the lunchroom. You can’t learn trigonometry if you’re focused on where your next meal is coming from. minnesotareformer.com/briefs/free-sc…

Kids can’t learn on an empty stomach. I say this as a classroom teacher who supervised the lunchroom for 20+ years. This school lunch was nutritious, filling, and free. Because in Minnesota, we will not allow our kids to go hungry.

So the INCREDIBLE teacher who gave my son his own “recommendations corner” in the book area has now lent him her childhood special book to keep up his reading momentum. The kid who was throwing books in frustration 2 weeks ago, now can’t put them down 🥹😍 #readingforpleasure

How can we leverage #technology to design for the #agency of users? By seeing technology as an aid that can unlock the pre-existing value of the ecosystem rather than as the solution. The journeys of large-scale transformations in India's #digitalrevolution are testaments (1/2).
