Yes. This is a Minnesota state government problem to solve, not a recipient issue. You might notice a provider asking more questions to support documentation of claims but DO NOT DELAY OR INTERRUPT CARE because the feds are batshit.

Flock and LPR either get contained, or we live in a totalitarian state. There is no reason that a government should be able to compile a standing database of where people are at all times.

MAPE has filed an Unfair Labor Practice (ULP) against Macalester College for refusing to bargain in good faith. Contract negotiations have been going on for nine months. Read the full story here: https://mape.org/news/mape-files-unfair-labor-practice-against-macalester-college

thingkig about good time with spørt, remembering memories of famous Vikings playœrs BESTA and RODALM

With all my heart, I beg you to bite the bullet and migrate from Substack.

People who keep pointing out that golf courses use as much water as data centres as some sort of defence of data centres drastically underestimate the amount we also hate golf.

“Go, tell the Spartans, stranger passing by. That here, obedient to their laws, we tweet."

Bugs the shit out of me that when a company or production hires a person with an abusive past, it’s always framed as “don’t you believe in second chances😢😢😢” and never, NEVER, “is it worth it to put every woman at this company at risk?”

From a homeowner, please understand that this is not funny. Housing markets only do this when they are under extreme duress.

This is absolutely the wrong direction for St. Paul. There is nothing ethical, nothing effective, nothing economical about displacing unhoused people temporarily. The only thing that solves homelessness is housing. Full stop. I implore you, @mollycoleman.bsky.social to oppose this.

Crash, and it's not even close. Some have had lower production values or been annoying. But none were radioactively bad like that one.

As always: if there's any class of people who do not have due process rights, then *nobody* has due process rights, because the government can just claim someone is in that class and there's no process to establish otherwise.

Rewatching fever/valks highlights and thought of this. For no reason I’m sure.

You're not wrong about the facts...but it has some disturbing implications about which timeline we're in.

this was indeed the conclusion of my article recapping Todd Blanche's nomination hearing ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

Remember all the people who yelled at me about how much safer cameras will make them How if I have a big problem with it all I have to do is not drive a car Remember, very annoying subsection of online urbanists: you advocated trading our privacy for safety. But the cops are all stalkers.

The carceral system we have in America is every bit as lethal and unjustified as the violence of street policing.

“You must appeal to people who believe you deny reality by denying reality”

DURING DISABILITY PRIDE MONTH. They're doing this immediately after cutting Medicare and welfare to kill us. That's not hyperbole. I lost someone I love who deserved care but got fatal neglect from these evil Skeksis motherfuckers instead. Journalists: Identify necropolitics. Call it what it is.

Furthermore, ICE delenda est.

this is how you remind me...that i haven't checked this off my bucket list?

The way that I was not surprised.

Gonna be a long day at work today but at least it’s WFWTD.

He's not the most damaging jurist on SCOTUS, but he'd better hope Sam doesn't die.

The League of Beneficiary Gentlemen.

Reuters confirms. 11 more people captured by ICE have been sent to a maximum security prison in Eswatini (formerly Swaziland), a country where they have no ties and committed no crimes. reut.rs/4wpbIGU

That is not how "law" works. A thing is lawful or not; "voters" come into the picture elsewhere, by voting for people to change the law. And this extra-judicial "voters" argument fails on its own logic: what power do voters have over a second-term President? Or have we just abandoned that law too?

NEW: He was picking up a work crew to take them to construction site at 6 a.m. on Tuesday morning. ICE showed up. And now this small business owner, the father of three American citizens, is dead. www.thebulwark.com/p/he-lived-h...

If the GOP starts sacrificing psykers to keep Mitch in control of the Senate/Astronomican, that’s a very bad sign for the direction of our country.

Seems to me like the party has a little less than 3 weeks to do a fire house primary, which would be the right thing to do and energizing in the wake of the nonsense

Racism loves transphobia loves interpersonal violence loves misogyny loves ableism loves…

Getting reeeeealy tired of people insisting that the paper bag in the fridge labeled “dead dove, do not eat” has anything other than what it says on the label. The contortions I saw…for a totenkopf! The literal “we are the baddies” iconography.

understanding the malleability of sex as a core tenant of transness is to me what informs my radical positions on bodily autonomy as a fundamental political issue because so many debates boil down to the question of whether or not you are allowed control over your own body and how it changes.

the use of “performative” as an insult here is why these people are losing their primaries. yes, voters want you to perform their anger and disgust! they want representatives to represent their symbolic interests! the idea that good representation is necessarily quiet and unobtrusive is wrong!

the double slit experiment but I’m trying to observe a functioning democracy

As a Minnesotan, I celebrate July 2-3. Save the Union, then capture the flag.

Donald Trump has made more than $1 billion (yes, with a B!) from his crypto schemes. And last year, Angie Craig was the only Minnesota Democrat to vote to let Trump get rich selling crypto coins. It's just wrong - and we deserve better.

NEW: In the term ending last year, the Supreme Court passed a troubling milestone: The Shadow Docket overtook the normal process. That means more unsigned decisions with no reasoning and secret votes from the highest court. @kbmorales.bsky.social has your scoop: www.propublica.org/article/supr...

Today we celebrate 55 years of the merger of 5 postal unions to become one - The American Postal Workers Union! Since 1971, we've proudly represented postal workers in their fight for justice, safety and respect in the workplace.

The only 'fairness in sports' argument I want to entertain is, "how do we make it so everyone can play the sports they like, and not only those who have wealthy parents/are independently wealthy themselves"

The way I wailed when I saw it was cancelled. Bawoooo!

This is a fireable offense. But if this is is what takes NT down and not…her myriad other sins of bothsidesism and normalization of creeping fascism for the sake of access journalism… Whatever. I’ll still take it.

Not coincidentally, I’m queer and not gay. It matters.

Trans siblings, it's a bad day If you need to remind yourself why it's worth it to stay alive, here's an essay I wrote a few years ago about a new translation of the Book of Job: archive.is/UXHPD It might help a little 💜🏳️‍⚧️💔

This is the everyday quotidian violence we allow on our behalf.

The TL;DR, as always, is this: SCOTUS will allow Donald Trump to wreck separation of powers and the rule of law, but they draw the line at wrecking capitalism.
