Pack of coyote babies at the northern end of Nicollet Island. June 7 at 12:55.

The sandcrawler at night.

America’s Greatest City

What a view✅ Hanging with pals✅

I know Target Field has been around for 16 years now, but I still love having to put on sunscreen to go to a baseball game.

Peter shouldn’t have had to guess at this Jeopardy clue today. Educate yourself, Peter!

A few weeks back, there was this good article in Racket about doing a LRT doubleheader with Twins/Saints. Saturday is another opportunity with Twins at 1:10/Saints at 6:35. @snackeru.bsky.social and I will be doing this doublebill. HMU if interested or going to the games. Weather looks perfect.

The UofM wearing the old style Gopher logo on their jerseys is a great look @snackeru.bsky.social!

MINNESOTA MENTIONED No, really. I about died of shock

D&J Glove Repair coasters are handsome and versatile. Happy National Donut Day to those who observe.

Light rail tracks over 35W and the colorful Riverside Plaza near Downtown Minneapolis. Have always loved this spot!

I also did a panoramic shot! Surprised it turned out okay.

Stunning sky tonight in Minneapolis.

Those clouds don't look good...

I know the team stinks, but with overlapping promotions, you can go to the Twins game on Friday for $10 a ticket, get beers and hot dogs for $2 a pop before the game starts, and stay for fireworks afterwards. A fun date for like $30 for two! mlb.tickets.com?tfl=Minnesot...

“Our pool is bigger than skyscrapers” is my favorite Minutemen lyric

Awoooooooooo!!!

I'm guessing @normcharlatan.bsky.social loves being able to pick OKC 1990s player Gary Payton in 82-0. OKC was such a great team in the 90s.

Today is the the first Tuesday of June. I looked at today’s Strib and at lengths of papers on the first Tuesday of June in previous years. 2026: 22 pages 2016: 36 pages 2006: 50 pages 1996: 108 pages This Sunday’s length: 50 pages A Tuesday paper 30 years ago was TWICE as big as a Sunday today.

Strib laying off 15% of our workforce tomorrow 🫥

The earliest buds I spotted at the Lyndale Rose Garden!

The Twins are selling their City Connect hats for $20 tonight, plus I had a 10% off coupon. I wouldn’t pay $45 for this hat, but I’ll pay $18.

The Loonies were a sevens team in the short-lived maybe defunct sevens series Premier Rugby 7s. I have a jersey even

I still have my t-shirt.

This is the logo for Minnesota Underwater Hockey Club, which has been "playing underwater hockey since 1975." Their waiver requires players agree that: "Life-sustaining air, without which UWH players cannot survive, does not exist at the pool bottom where the puck is located and play occurs."

Then there was the Minneapolis Loons from the North Central League in 1994. Lasted 2 seasons, I think? Greg Olson was the manager. Not the best look at the logo but couldn’t find much better.

What about UMD’s alternate mascot the Maroon Loon?

After @k8c.bsky.social posted the Rochester FC loon logo yesterday it got me thinking, how many Minnesota sports teams have a loon logo? Turns out not as many as you would think! These are all the loon logos I could find, starting with the obvious: The Minnesota United FC logo. Classic. Beautiful.🧵

I’m starting to think every Minnesota sports team needs a loon logo.

This is like watching Joey Chestnut eat hot dogs

I finally found my Replacements at Coffman Great Hall photos. Pretty sure this is Feb 15, 1985. A few highlights. @chrissteller.bsky.social

IYKYK

Good morning all you lovely people on the sky line

Al's Breakfast is the real deal. Best blueberry pancakes in town.

TC bike parking review: Lake Harriet Bandshell A- The sail shape is such a fun fit for the space, I love it! Functionally, the rack is fine and I have no complaints. A- only due to quantity. ⛵️🚲 @tcbikeparking.bsky.social

Nicollet Island ... you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy.

Frida found a cool surface.

All respect to Annunciation parents, their advocacy amid horror is incredible, but I think they may have to come out and say we need to elect DFLers this fall for any hope of significant gun regulation. www.startribune.com/after-a-frus...

Here's my obligatory "Look Cedar Lake Trail is open oh my god it is beautiful and I love bike infrastructure!!!!!" pictures.

Does anyone know what goes on in this box that juts out from the Guthrie Theater? I think it might be the crypt for the Ghost of Christmas Future.

I don’t need another Tshirt. I don’t need another Tshirt. I don’t need another Tshirt. I don’t need another Tshirt. I don’t need another Tshirt! 20% goes to Smitten Kitten Mutual Aid fund. Ok I will get another Tshirt. (Hats & totes too) www.makeamericaminneapolis.com

If Bob had brought Suze back to see the Dinkytown alley his room looked out on. #DylanAlley

People, I’m starting to think the Twins might actually be a halfway decent team.

FYI: Bob Dylan was born in northern Minnesota.

We really needed this sunlight.

We are less than two years out from Duluth willingly tearing down the birthplace of its most famous son, the literal room where he was born OTD in 1941.

Happy 85th birthday to Bob Dylan! This is a mural of Bob on 4th St. SE in Dinkytown. Is that a bus with wings or a streetcar with wings in the mural? Definitely route 6 …

Shoutout to the guy at the Cloudland with the Plywood Minnesota jacket.
