That was a wild game. On to Seattle!

This seems to be teasing Ben Folds Five’s return. www.instagram.com/reel/DaQq2nj...

really cool new map available of bikeways in the city of minneapolis! "At the end of 2025, there were 89 miles of trails, 36 miles of curb-protected bikeways, 24 miles of bicycle boulevards, and 140 miles of painted bike lanes in the city." experience.arcgis.com/experience/8...

The rule is, if there are more people on stage than in the audience, you wrap up your performance and just go get a drink with the audience.

the future of tech is 500 distinct apps offering to take notes for you

This is a heck of a good read.

First day at Bauhaus/last day at Bauhaus. 😭

Well this sucks.

Not every day you get to see them pave the road in front of your house. Yes, we did sit on the stoop like kids for a while.

If you're wondering if it's going any better in the Charlotte Hornets fan base, the answer is it's not

Am I missing something the wolves don't have a legitimate 4 now yeah?

lol

Colbert arrives at the Obama Library opening in a tan suit. 😂

In late 2020, months after the murder of George Floyd, our colleague Justin Ellis moved back to his hometown of Minneapolis to begin work on a book about black life in the city. His brilliant new work, 'The Cruelty of Nice Folks,' is in bookstores now. defector.com/justin-ellis...

Look, I'm a dog person, but these people are fucking insane. There's plenty of other dog parks around south Minneapolis. Let this one close without sounding like a fucking moron.

It looks like they're brewing Yodas in there. defector.com/promises-mad...

I got sucked into Love Island USA by my wife and eldest daughter, and then I learned that it was their plan all along.

This is fucking everything. I love this.

When in Texas… #fuckthisshit

This was my daughter's english teacher at Washburn this year. My daughter loved it. So glad teachers are keeping things old school in certain contexts. (gift link)

I'm going to be in San Antonio during games 1 and 2 of the NBA finals. Should be interesting.

If you’re looking for a google replacement for search, I highly recommend Kagi.com. I happily pay $10 a month for it. They have a fun “small web” feature too. No ads. No ai crap in search results.

I wonder if they'll actually ship it this time mastodon.social/@markgurman/1...

At the point with my health clinic where I just schedule an appointment first available months out and then put myself on the waitlist. works every time to get an appointment within a couple of weeks.

ahahahhaahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahahah hahahaha NO

girl you know it's true

she's toast but we all knew that already.

Mayor Frey sucks. Why do people in Minneapolis keep re-electing this fucking clown show?

Subscribing to and reading Racket is like a cheat code to meeting cool people in the Twin Cities and finding cool things to do. If you are new to the area, or are in a moment of transition in your life, truly can't recommend it enough.

Saw "Obsession" today. Great flick!

Watched the AI doc on peacock. Jfc.

Remember how wild it was when the Twitter conversations really got rolling? When silly comments shook the guardrails and our raucous giggling broke bubbles? We could make Bluesky dangerous like that. We could feast in slop with the funny nazis and feel alive again

A Minneapolis neighborhood school created a @moonpalacebooks.bsky.social registry of books to send home with kids for the summer, and Moon Palace is selling them at a 20 percent discount! Order the books for local students at this link by May 29 moonpalacebooks.com/gift-registr...

White House today, probably: "Hey, we have to cover up this settlement story. Let's indict Raul Castro."

If you live in Minneapolis-St. Paul and you aren't subscribed to Racket, why not?

Indigo is my new favorite Bluesky client (Apple ecosystem). Have a good iOS, iPad and Mac app out of the gate. But its main feature is to allow blending with Mastodon. For those few people posting over there that I want to follow, a good thing (I'm bad at checking it).

Still have seen no reporting on it but buried in the Tax Omnibus Bill that the MN legislature passed the other day is an extension of PTET through 2027. Not sure if gov has signed any of these bills yet, but I expect this to go through.

Like everything else, attending concerts is getting more expensive and confusing. Here are tips for trying to nab more affordable tickets to the big shows and other ways to save money; like attending the littler shows that still offer big fun. www.startribune.com/ways-to-save...

This is encouraging, though i still wish they'd nuke these into the sun.

WELP

Hey Twin Cities, you should get outside this morning if you can! It’s a top ten weather day out there right now, so take advantage! We only get four or five of these a year!

Sending the alto saxophone I played in high school to my 87-year-old father so he can try and play it again (he also played in high school). It's just rotting in my basement, so why not? I told them he has to take a video of himself playing it once he gets his chops back.

100 percent this. I've gone from dreaming of this reality to it being possible in two or three years with my small business. We've looked at many off-the-shelf software solutions, but can't stomach the prices and lack of control around features, etc.

Activated 3rd places for teens, a topic near and dear to me. (14 and 16 year old daughters). They spend most of their time at coffee shops or the library or MOA/malls early on the weekend before they enforce the age limits. Some all ages music venues would be nice for them.

The goal tends that Wemby gets away with…
