I heard this referenced on a stream, and I'm like - whoa, there's another "Jesse" pop song I haven't heard? and well... the 90s were a hell of a drug www.youtube.com/watch?v=1sOU...

Don’t lie, Lisa. I’ve got receipts.

Horrific. If you think the consent decree is “reforming” Mpls cops please consider: “Chicago is nearly seven years into a state consent decree that is intended in part to address issues with the department’s promotions system”

this is one problem with urbanist spaces being male dominated - their ideas of what is safe are completely different from mine, if they even ever consider safety. it's why they'll see nothing wrong with moving buses from nicollet mall to another street - why not, they'd go faster, right?

i wrote another article on @streets.mn about two more incredible "aunties" - my friends Reyna and Alice, two hardworking and passionate forces in the active transportation world. streets.mn/2025/12/04/t...

“If you want to build great cities, you build them for women. We are the ones out there taking more transit, hauling our kids and groceries around, making lots of the buying decisions, and deciding if our kids can walk or bike to school.” -Alice Tibbetts Latest Aunties article is out. It's great!

REJOICE!! SOMEONE HAS PUT THE VIDEO OF JESSE VENTURA SINGING WEREWOLVES OF MINNESOTA WITH WARREN ZEVON BACK UP ON YOUTUBE, HAPPY FIRST WEDNESDAY!!! (It starts at the 5-minute mark)

and Larson even had the foresight to depict Roger Stone in the wacky murder suit

The Trump Regime in one frame:

I wonder if it's a modern phenomenon, this combo of feeling of wanting to humanely thank people stuck talking on the phone with me about health insurance, while simultaneously feeling a deep and enduring rage at how useless and imprecise the information provided is. Probably as old as bureaucracy

London is fast becoming a cycling city. As each new piece in the network appears—which has more than quadrupled from 90 to 431 km since 2016—so do new cyclists. Its infrastructure now sees a stunning 1.5 million daily users—a 43% spike since 2019—moving nearly half as many people as the Tube below.🧵

The coverup of these powerful white men’s support of & direct links to nazis and nazi ideas is a media disaster at least as bad as the Iraq WMDs fantasia. Vance listens to Yarvin! Those ideas are vicious and explicitly supremacist!

We keep doing these pilot programs and are shocked, SHOCKED!, by the incredibly positive results each time. At what point can we just, ya know, stop with the pilots and make this policy already??? #ubi

Dear neighbor, I want to let you know that we are witnessing increased enforcement actions by agents in South Minneapolis. There continues to be reports of residents being followed while driving, stopped and taken away. 1/

The rich want us to pay higher property taxes by refusing to allow density in their enclave

Don’t threaten me with a good time!!!

The biggest technological revolution of our lifetime is underway and it's not AI:

Family of one of the men taken in Saint Paul by ICE is trying to raise another $460 for legal assistance: gofund.me/e6d651172

Well that sounds familiar “there was a pitfall we didn’t really see at the time: you could win power through airtime, but you couldn’t govern with it” www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

Protect our freshwater and soils! www.minneapolismn.gov/getting-arou... it is really cool the city offers free sand (25%ICE MELT/salt) to residents! 😄

Interesting to read about the Seattle mayor race. One thing that sticks out is the example of big money having an effect on the race (but not quite big enough to defeat Wilson) "We can infer the amount of money Harrell spent likely helped him close the gap" www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

i really have not wanted to make a patreon because i feel weird about it all and don't want to use it to like offer anything exclusive there but @wedge.live says i can just make it and forget it so www.patreon.com/cw/TaylorDah...

Really a grounding truth about software industry: “Software failures are universally unbiased. They happen in every country, to large companies and small. They happen in commercial, nonprofit, and governmental organizations, regardless of status or reputation.” spectrum.ieee.org/it-managemen...

This is how you do it.

Statement from President VanDassor on the actions of HSI in St Paul this morning

I enjoyed listening to the new mill city times podcast episode today! Fun to get to hear what some folks think in a format longer than a social media post. Two things that stood out to me:

NEW EPISODE TODAY! The last two mayoral elections have featured remarkably high voter turnout. Any plan moving forward must reckon with this unique environment of highly motivated voter behavior. We discussed what that means re: strategy millcityhall.com/episodes/202...

Kayseh has been a tireless investigator of fraud within his community & pulls no punches, and if he says it’s bullshit, it’s bullshit. Also shame & discredit to Fox9 for its 2018 bullshit that current bullshitters amped up to harm innocent people.

NEW EPISODE: Did Fateh max out the strategy this year? and other key questions and takeaways. Lot of links in the show notes if you didn’t catch the takes and data dives already millcityhall.com/episodes/202...

Seems like good material for @ehbforbet.bsky.social and company to consider re: municipal revenue

This really feels true to my experience and observations

The super rich are buying EVERYTHING. And that means regular people can’t compete for the things we need. Like politics that is responsive to real needs! We need wealth taxes to directly tackle this and stop the rich from squeezing out of everything

Another family whose loved ones were taken from Bro-Tex has posted a Go Fund Me www.gofundme.com/f/support-al...

Interesting, no specifics in the article but if it follows the pilot that would mean something like $500/month to 1,250 households.

They lied about it. All of it. A thug cop shot an unarmed woman five times without justification, boasted about it to his colleagues, and then this administration tried cover it all up by arresting her and charging her with felonies.

Finally finished my blog post on the Minneapolis Mayoral Election and demographics. I posted it to an old medium account that I forgot I had. Let me know what you think. Here's what I found 🧵 medium.com/@damia025/pr...

This seems like the right direction to me. What I’ve read about Waymo is they have the strongest record on diligence/safety in AV tech. But more cars doesn’t make our community more liveable. I don’t want to spend effort championing Lyft/uber either. Active transportation is the way.

it's give to the max day, and i know a place that will MAXIMALLY utilize your donations for programs and policies that make minnesota a safer place to bike, walk, and roll! consider donating to @bikemn.bsky.social as you round out your GTTM donations. www.givemn.org/organization...

Getting ads for this Disney game on Twitch and … what are you cozy gamers doing just hanging out with Cruella DeVille in Wishblossom Ranch? What do you think she’s ranching, huh?

The family of one of the workers taken by ICE from Bro-Tex yesterday has set up a Go Fund Me. www.gofundme.com/f/fn4bw-help...?

Wish I could be there! Recommended if you have time tomorrow night!

“It is incredibly frustrating we are not getting participation from MPD,” Timmerman said. Timmerman said the delays are part of the reason why the estimated cost to contract with an outside law firm to assist with the investigation has doubled from $90,000 to about $200,000.

After months Team Minneapolis declaring only THEY are moderate, others are Far Left Extremists, I became very confused to hear of Mike Newcome from Lake Elmo. Says HE is the center. So is he Team Minneapolis, too? Are Jacob Frey and Mike Newcome the same person? www.startribune.com/third-party-...

The legendary HOPE hacking conference has been banned from its venue at St. John's University over what the university seems to be calling an "anti-police agenda." Part of a broader crackdown on security research / hacking / open source: www.404media.co/hope-hacking...

Federal agents from ICE, DEA and the FBI raided a St. Paul paper distributor Tuesday morning. Hundreds of community members responded in protest, clashing with officers. At least two people were detained by authorities, according to a witness.
