Welp, time to hide your puppies tomorrow

According to the investigative report, Eagan band teacher Brett Benson had a “pattern of predatory grooming behaviors … with numerous students” going back a decade in two school districts.

@governorwalz.mn.gov and @ltgovflanagan.mn.gov this is on you. Your MMB policies are inflexible and inequitable. Repeal RTO now

How are those no heat before Thanksgiving people doing now?

Media need new standards when talking about mass shooters. Fixation on name, identity, motive, etc. only encourages more of these terrible actions. So while we work towards assault weapons bans and getting rid of our gun loving supreme court, start with this: www.startribune.com/annunciation...

media should not interview minors who have just survived a mass shooting

O’Hara couldn’t tell you the first step to stop this but I will. Ban assault weapons.

I married into and was welcomed by a a loving, accepting and caring family all brought up by Annunciation School and Church. The heartbreak, grief, and trauma this community is experiencing is immeasurable.

You can’t harden targets enough when powerful ghouls harden hearts

We deserve a city government that works for all of us—where decisions are made based on what’s right for the people of our city, not based on who is most loyal to the mayor. We deserve better.

MPLS alerts needs to get its shit together….I’m more confused now than I was before.

3.5 y/o should not have “air quality” in their vocabulary

The pottery studio next to the taco place has had a sign up for ages that says "Could we please give the police to the grandmothers?". It made an unfortunately good backdrop.

O'Hara was quoted in the paper *today* saying MPD didn't have enough staff for an 8-person investigative unit for non-fatal shootings—the same program St. Paul is using to cut its gun related homicides in half. Got plenty of guys to run interference for ICE tho.

“The commissioner of the Dept of Revenue recently highlighted the benefits of the agency’s hybrid model, noting increased productivity, improved employee recruitment and retention, expanded job access in Greater Minnesota, and cost savings of $2.45 million annually from reduced office space needs.”

@ltgovflanagan.mn.gov @agellison.bsky.social, Simon, Blaha and the exec council who let this happen….totally bogus

NAMI MN is hosting group-Holding Steady: Mental Health Support for Workers Impacted by Federal Changes

Having your three year olds healthcare data stolen feels particularly violating

I frequently use the National Center for Rural Mental Health’s intervention hub to support MN schools. NCRMH is grant funded through IES- this would be a huge loss to rural mental health professionals, students, families and communities who already face large shortages of support personnel

The ancestors told me they survived autocracy with Girl Scout cookies. @madaswell.bsky.social delivered 🩷

Stop fucking saying he blamed “DEI,” which is some abstract, non-tangible idea. He is blaming people of color having jobs he thinks they aren’t qualified for. He’s blaming race. He’s being racist every time he says it. Journalists need to get fucking backbones, my word.

Someone at Google is up to good trouble

President Trump told the American people that he wanted to be a dictator on day one. Now in office, he and his administration are making good on that promise with illegal and unconstitutional actions that directly threaten Americans’ economic, personal, and national security.

Klobuchar is saying they were caught off guard….the whole playbook is right there

According to the Minnesota Management and Budget website, federal grants make up $39.84 billion of the State of Minnesota's current two-year budget.

How are we fighting back MN?

What’s the likelihood of a special session to make some protections here in MN?
