Annihilation. Embarrassing for Notre Dame on network tv. I thought ND might make a little run in the 3rd but Michigan ran away with it. GO BLUE! 〽️

Ope! Hannah Hidalgo 1-8 and just 3 points? Michigan’s defense has been smothering her, we’re flat out outrunning ND, and crushing them on the glass.

A while back, I wrote about Jennifer Sey and XX-XY Athletics are stoking anti-trans hysteria by a) gaming the media, & b) offering money to cis women who speak out. Just a few people can be tied to the entire anti-trans hate campaign:

Oh fuck, that’s so many kinds of fucked up.

Know any twin cities small-business owners? I'm hosting a gathering of businesses against fascism on Wed. Nov. 19 @6pm. Working w/ ISAIAH to connect business owners with a broader anti-authoritarian movement with shared demands. Please send anyone you know who might be interested my way! The plan:

Ducked out of my home office between meetings to go outside and put the holiday lights up because it's inexplicably 70 degrees out.

Professional Women's Volleyball is coming to Minnesota!!

😮‍💨

Just realizing that every time I get the Spelling Bee Queen Bee, I pump my fist and say to myself "Queen Bee, bitches!"

Reads like a Mad Libs.

No thank you!

Wow. Can't say much else. The overhead corona was unbelievable. The most intense reds and greens. ❤️💚😍💃 She'll be dancing until sunrise. I visited Franconia Sculpture Park over summer and it has been on my aurora photo bucket list ever since. That's where I went last night. Schafer, Minnesota.

This is A+Twin Cities content, thank you @millcitythreads.bsky.social and @walkingminnesota.com.

AMAZEBALLS! #aurora

okay NOW we can call it the skyline

This Wicked Part 2 promo is really elaborate.

Say their names cemetery Minneapolis, MN 11/11/25

Finally got a legit aurora viewing! SQUEEEEEEEEE! (I’m sure there’s a trick to taking better photos. I just pointed and shot.)

“LIV basketball” I’m gonna use that.

Teams have been saying that hosting All Star is a money-loser so I wonder, given how Phx and Indy approached the last couple, if hosting ASG weekend becomes part of the billionaire owner arms race once everyone’s practice facilities are up and running. Plus, every team has more tv money coming.

She has done so many very impactful things beyond this, but wow, she seems pretty cool. (Hope that young woman doesn’t get groped by someone else while she’s in that premium seat, as President Sheinbaum recently was on the streets of Mexico City. Because, you know, FIFA dignitaries.)

Every Minneapolis election since 2017 reinforces for me how much the Well Meaning White People of Ward 11 were ready to move on from John Quincy. (Maybe at the 10-year mark I will stop dwelling on this. 😅)

We asked our members today what we should do given the news of how the shutdown is ending and 80% of them SWIFTLY said “Bye, Chuck.” So, we lean in. Lil petition in the thread if you wanna sign it.

Let me guess, they’re getting Republicans on record taking shitty votes. Also, I suppose, the good senators making the best of a shitty situation the cavers put them in.

Quick snapshot of the @runforsomething.net candidate sign-ups -- we're building a party of fighters, not folders.

Important to understand this. There's a reasonable chance that your Dem Senator who voted against it and is acting mad now was in on the play. It's the same reason why they scheduled the surrender for AFTER the election this week. They didn't want people pissed at Dems right before an election.

“The scientific evidence shows that anyone who goes through puberty as a male has permanent advantages over females and they cannot be entirely mitigated by hormone treatment.” And which scientific evidence would that be? Actual science, please, not just what you think.

This seems too good to be true. But it is good. And I guarantee there will be another case later.

Light these MFers up. Leave a message tonight, call again tomorrow. You can call their district offices in your state, too.

Since we’re playing chicken with people’s health care: The fact that there are subsidies to ACA premiums with any kind of expiration at all is a compromise that Republicans extracted to water ACA down in the first place. Precisely so they could have this opportunity to attack it again in the future.

If Schumer is grinning… Dems are not about to do what I want them to do.

This Lynx fan empathizes with Current fans. But as a neutral, that was fun.

I really wanna see what a Goldeneye goalie helmet looks like.

TakeAction is doing a ton of work right now, especially around public schools. Black Visions is going strong. Reclaim the Block sunsetted but gave all of their money to other organizations through a democratic process that centered Black youth.

Yes, one of my big takeaways: Progressives didn’t win mayor but except for W7 (kind of expected), did very well on everything else. Most council members won comfortably, unfucked the Park Board, EHB for BET!

😍

Strikingly, of the 45 Minneapolis Police officers whose videos we've just released, more than 24% have killed community members while on duty, and a large swath of other officers had numerous accounts of egregious actions against the community. 🚔

As long as you know what you’re committing to do and you have the proper support to do it (because those people will make your life hell if you let them), this seems like a solid way to go about it. Especially if you’re someone who otherwise has a lot of privileges in life.

I *wish* we could explain away a third term for jacob Frey as ranked choice voting’s fault. That would be weirdly comforting to me! But sometimes the truth is simpler—and pretty uncomfortable. We don’t do uncomfortable here. 🙁

Y'all, we need to cope with the fact that a distressingly large number of people like Jacob Frey. If you've lived in MN for even a little while, especially if you've also lived somewhere more diverse than here, you know how whiteness does around here. It happened again.

Thank you to @dewayneforminneapolis.com @omarfatehmn.com @jazzformayor.bsky.social and every other candidate who saw through his gaslighting, lies, fences, and all of his bullshit to try to make a real difference here. Thank you for doing the work and trying to make a better city for us all. 💙💙💙

My RCV take: It’s not preventing Minneapolis progressives from achieving desired city-wide results. It is actually showing that progressives are close even when not winning. And it’s affirming something about the electorate that we don’t understand, can’t accept, or don’t know what to do about.

Okay, that’s excellent content.

The IRS is reportedly not offering its Direct File program next year. Here’s a look back at how TurboTax owner Intuit spent two decades fighting to prevent Americans from filing their taxes online for free: (Published 2019)

Many of you know Gigi from her pins and her DJing and general person-about-town connection to the city- she can use some help covering medical expenses for an upcoming surgery. Please give if you can! www.gofundme.com/f/supportomg...
