YES. Birthday wish activated. This definitely counts as a good snow storm. My wish also involves hoping everyone can just get cozy and snuggle in. Apologies to those of you who were hoping that Fool's Spring was Real Spring.

People taking this storm seriously - Costco was sold out of butter croissants.

As an adult, I think about guillotines way more than I expected. It's not a stretch to go from guillotines to nuclear bombs. The impetus for creating deadly technology always starts with fear of "THEM." The opposite of that is feeding the stranger, protecting the child, loving your neighbor.

Be a tourist in your own town. Share a photo.

Cheers to Friday.

Between the wind and Littlest having many bad dreams, I think this is a 3 cups of coffee morning. The bad dreams: One of her besties grabbed her foot and stole her sock. Her baby doll got chomped by a crocodile. A dog ate her cheese that fell on the ground. I forgot to hug her last morning.

Can't we just sell of the MPD tanks and pay rent for people that way? If we get in a war they can just call up the National Guard.

It is the perfect weather for this meal. #pasty

The plan for today is officially - Make pasty and watch Andor Because I do in fact make the rules.

Was having a bit of a crap morning, and then I read this - and it helped me a little. Maybe it will help you too: "...you and I are the same, and that we all belong here. It’s our job together to take care of one another..." minnesotareformer.com/2026/03/12/w...

- Fascists - Oligarchs - the GOP - ICE agents - Bigots - TERFs #shitlist

- Right now, someone somewhere is pooping. - Public health drastically improved once people developed processes that kept feces out of water supplies - People have jobs testing fecal samples - My grandma used to say "baska" instead of "shit" so we wouldn't know she used swear words #shitpost

For the morning shift. We’re not gonna go back to Target yet.

I don’t like AI because it turns people into the dummy sitting on the ventriloquist’s lap. Who’s puppet are you? Who’s giving you voice? Stolen words, stolen thoughts, and stolen agency. No thanks. Hard pass.

Can we start shaming people who don’t have empathy or imagination or respect for basic human needs like housing?

Jakey’s current legacy: - bulldozing homeless encampments - blocking sidewalks to prevent unhoused people from seeking shelter in public spaces - ensuring more homelessness as a result of a federal occupation targeting citizens and residents - wearing a baby - saying “Fuck” once

Council Member Jason Chavez's Statement on  Mayor Frey’s Veto of Pause Evictions, Save Lives Dear neighbor, I am disappointed that Mayor Jacob Frey vetoed the Pause Evictions, Save Lives Ordinance. 1/

Frey - WTF?! Who is paying you to be so shitty?!!! You had a chance to be a good neighbor.

This is a powerful letter from Minneapolis Legislative Delegation asking Mayor Frey to sign Pause Evictions, Save Lives. 16/17 state legislators who represent Minneapolis signed onto this letter. It’s time for Mayor Frey to sign this ordinance and support our immigrant neighbors.

Sorry if you were hoping for real spring. I wished for at least one more good snow for my birthday.

Do you need some words? You can use these, no charge: Mayor Frey, A very very easy way to decrease homelessness in Minneapolis is to sign Pause Evictions, Save Lives. Put action behind your swear words about ICE. Sincerely, A Minneapolis Resident

Monday morning reminders: - fuck ICE - You deserve love and care, unless you've chosen to be a bigoted fascist - joy is resistance

Soft sunset exhales: breathing a moment of peace - the wonder of sky. #Sunset

Sunset alert!

Shout out to *ALL* the badass women out there. You know who you are, you don’t apologize for it, and if someone doesn’t else can’t see it - that’s a them problem for not recognizing badass women. #InternationalWomensDay

*Picks up a bottle from the ocean, reads message* Friend, Republicans in Congress are doing bad things! Please rush a donation to our Democratic consultancy so we can offer more bad advice about how to stop them!

“Oh yeah, it’s the day when time is nonsense” ~ Middlest kid, upon waking up and seeing 9:34 AM instead of the usual 8:30ish.

Verdict, really pretty. Could be cheesier. Will tweak that next time. Link to recipe in reply.

for the cost of all the war bullshit the usa has done over the past 70ish years or so, we could have probably completely eradicated every single disease on the planet, including ones that infect animals, and had no homeless people anywhere. i'm not really joking about this, jesus christ what a waste

Caramelized Onion & goat cheese bread progress. I hope it tastes good- this is the fussiest bake I’ve done in awhile.

Sunday! Come and raise money for rent relief!

I'm going to attempt a carmelized onion and goat cheese pull-apart bread today. It's nice having time to bake.

I don’t need a puppy, but I now have favorite neighborhood dogs because I miss having a dog.

I am now on Spring Break. So I poured myself the good whiskey, and I'm not going to do ANY homework for like 2 whole days! (I'm a nursing student. Of course there's homework over break.)

Finished filing tax forms like a responsible adult person who hates the regime and thinks it’s so fucked that her tax dollars are being used to kill kids and destroy families because the president is a racist senile pedo.

Yo - friends of mine not in Minnesota - can you send some $ for this one? Please.

True Tales From my house, last night bedtime edition- Littlest: “I not tired. I want to run. I hide!” Parents: <spontaneous duet of “Where the Streets Have No Name”> Littlest: “That’s a good song, Mom and Dad!”

Free market advice to Target's new CEO: Spend those billions on: - rent relief and housing stability in your HQs hometown communities - providing small business grants to immigrant owners - acknowledging your mistakes and apologizing publicly We don't need your bullshit.

I suspect my community is actually superheroes disguised as regular people.

This is cool. For those not able to attend the Jason Isbell show tonight at the Armory, it’s being livestreamed on @thecurrent.org. And proceeds going to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota www.thecurrent.org/feature/2026...

Post a .gif about why you are the way you are:

Congrats to Rep. @katiejonesmpls.bsky.social and family, who biked to the hospital last week and came back with baby Hans. Here's what she told me about the ride:

One grandpa was a vain alcoholic youngest son of rich wheat farmers. He married the middle daughter of a Finnish Lutheran minister who worked as a line cook. The other grandpa had polio as a child, never finished high school, delivered groceries during WW2, and married a high school salutatorian.

Look- it’s gonna take an actual real deal general strike if we gonna fix this ourselves- or I dunno - the wacko end times folks will get what they want I guess

I don’t usually consider myself a lifelong supporter of ANY politician - but Jason Chavez will have my vote and support for ANY office he wants to campaign for. Deep and genuine care for all of his constituents - everyone deserves that from their elected officials.

🚨AWOOOO FOR RENT RELIEF🚨

I love that so many of us "Awooo!" in our hearts when we aren't in a place to politely "Awoo!" out loud. This is a Minnesota appreciation post for the first Wednesday of the Month.

Sometimes I forget that not everyone has a Minneapolis and St. Paul feed and they have to like... build their own collection of awesome people with interesting experiences and opinions and hot takes on a social platform.

My birthday is coming up soon. All I need are several impeachments. If you can't find that, abolishing ICE and an eviction moratorium would do. If I must, I'd settle for that guy keeling over. You know which one. Might as well wish big. I'm not getting any younger.
