Just preaching my message of "wanting to do less more often" we all have our reasons.

From a Washington Post story titled "How women feel about Trump’s presidency"

NEW EPISODE: "The Creation of America's Car Culture." Producer Ilana Strauss talks to @norton.bsky.social about the two men who, in the 1920s, teamed up to sell more cars and shape the way cities handle traffic. Their legacy can be felt across the country today. podcasts.apple.com/lu/podcast/t...

Business rent is way too high on Mag (not Miracle) Mile so companies are just shuffling around. H&M moved two blocks down the road to save cash. He's blaming "murder and crime" in one of the safest parts of the city because the real problem is "landlords." Almost like that's the whole gambit.

Hats off to Koegel. Seems like she fought hard for transit funding against some seemingly dishonest shenanigans. www.minnpost.com/state-govern...

well, here’s your first test, Mayor-elect Her. no home for CBP!

If you want to explain transit use, you need to care about whether transit is useful. Technology is a poor approximation of that. All technologies can have a huge range of usefulness, and none are useful if you ignore the network design and urban form. 6/6 humantransit.org/basics-acces...

Left my old job back in 2018. But I was there for 18 years so occasionally I will have dreams about still being there or going back to work there again.

Say what you will about Nvidia but at least they produce a physical product that doesn’t activity encourage you to kill yourself

new video up at my youtube page on the history of the filibuster and why it’s Bad. watch/share/subscribe/etc! youtu.be/a30e7lw6KL4

Ideal St Paul house

Pelicans are awesome! One of the handful of things I miss from Florida

You do it by zoning pickleball courts to only be near things like refineries, rendering plants, munitions testing grounds and the like

/80 When I open Microsoft Word, the only thing I want to see is a blank page and a cursor staring back at me. Why don't you "take a tour" of my nuts. What is any of this? I've never clicked on any of these but "BLANK DOCUMENT"

Small building Wharton, TX

Felted fall landscape!!

Single-Stair Sickos might like to learn that a lot of European cities used to produce detailed books on their built environment, including complete floor plans. Here's a snippet from Hamburg und Seine Bauten (1914)

When Groundswell opens back up I’m gonna buy a whole loaf of their banana bread. I miss it so much

If you are an archeologist with sinister intent is your RESPONSIBILITY to rush to Washington D.C. and start digging around — you need to discover some sort of dangerous, bloodthirsty ancient cryptid, up to and including a primordial life spirit the discovery of which triggers some sort of cataclysm

People say bad things about nepotism, but I kinda get it. Children get a lot of unteachable skills from their parents that allow them to exceed in the same field. For instance: I've become really good at drinking 4-7 beers and complaining about the inferior quality of modern consumer appliances.

excuse me??

Gotta keep that family tradition of insider trading alive and well

Trump learned an important lesson here. Nothing will make multi-millionaire, privileged Democratic congresspeople (and their most vocal donors) cave faster than messing with air travel before a holiday. He arbitrarily cut flights, and Dems immediately folded. What a bunch of country club pansies.

Cars might work fine in California or Florida, but they’re not practical here in Canada. We have winter.

Genuinely such an interesting long thread on why these suits look crap and yet how a particular type of crap suit has become a cultural signifier for right-wing men.

Minnesota Appellate Court Watch: a quiet week on the docket overall, but punctuated by one of the loudest cases I've seen in a while. A reversal of the denial of an Order for Protection that is as searing as our appellate courts ever get. CW: domestic abuse, sexual extortion, housing instability

Happy November 10th

Let’s retrofit this onto the former Midway Walmart

I found a bunch of cool photos from the Hennepin County Library (Whittier Alliance Records collection) of the old Sheffield Elevator Company grain elevator. It stood between Harriet and Garfield Avenues along the 29th Street railroad (Midtown Greenway), now occupied by the Soo Line Garden.

woah plot twist

reminded of the only good essay from daily kos. almost 20 years old and nothing has changed. www.dailykos.com/stories/2007...

Until the sun burns out

I do not think a single constituent has ever said that to her. I do think she hears it a lot from people with net worths over 8 figures that she meets at fundraisers though

Reminds me of this 1910 postcard, depicting St Paul as the "center of the earth"

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

turned the heat today so I guess it’s finally be-cold-for-the-next-5-to-6-months season

Charlie Brown-ass logic, smdh

overheard in minneapolis: “new place opened in north loop” the place:

The core problem is Democrats want the government to function and Republicans want it to cease existing

The explosion of the atomic bomb was so intense it burned "shadows" into walls

Saint Paul

oh wow the Barriger Library posted the press kit for EMD's release of the GM6C and GM10B, imagine the future where these panned out @sandypsj.bsky.social @a320lga.bsky.social @rustbeltenjoyer.bsky.social

we have been conquered by the Irish and the German

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

This is why the Winged Wheel represents Saint Paul
