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…

Eldest kid passed her drivers test on the second try. Huge relief.

Spurs double down on hideous color scheme with the fan t shirts.

Predicition Markets are the absolute worst and need to be outlawed or heavily regulated. (gift link) www.wsj.com/finance/inve...

We were by the new 7 Brew so of course we had to try it.

Passing this along - fucking scammers leveling up, here's a new one to pay attention to.

suspend jokic for a game. Wolves in 5

good to know i can still find a stream to cast quick when ABC decides to cut into this game with this stupid mothercucking press conference.

Wolves bench depth going to be put to the test.

The Little Bird Deli remains undefeated. Had another sandwich from there today. I haven't had anything that I haven't liked there. Support your local delis.

Jokic looks ready to give up basketball. It was a good run.

Jaden McDaniels, damn. what a half.

Wow, Kiper's best available is *still* Shedeur Sanders.

Returning from RDU after a few days. My parents have lived here since 2003, I’m hard pressed to find a previous time period with as much population growth as now. It’s nuts.

@sarahcastic.bsky.social I’m assuming you saw this? https://kottke.org/26/04/0048785-well-here-it-is-at

Billboard on southwest corner of 43rd and Nicollet is gone!!

Open the Fuckin’ Chick-fil-A, you crazy bastards, or you’ll be living in Hell

Bluesky isn’t dying, and any chart on Bluesky usage that starts after Feb 25 is going to give you a distorted view. But it is a problem that Bluesky’s active user count isn’t increasing.

If you're an Apple fan at all, this book is so worth buying the hard copy. I read it in a few days, and that rarely happens anymore with books.

Eldest daughter coming back from Costa Rica today. Her host family gave her this. So cute. She had a blast.

Eldest daughter is in Costa Rica for a school trip. I got her a 10-day international pass on our cell provider. It's like she's not even gone. Getting lots of texts and photos. It's great. I love that connectivity in this modern world is so much easier than it used to be.

He kind of makes Koski look like a radical leftist. I wish we’d had another choice.

Dead. Probably Cornell. The Ben Folds Five Reunion show I had to miss because I was in a wedding (had front row). Floyd sometime in the 70s.

I need one final Walker Texas Ranger lever pull with a cut to Chuck’s funeral

Chuck may have passed, but his Action Jeans will live on forever

Even though it's currently 43 degrees, it just feels like spring outside today.

If you or a friend have processed a bunch of $$$ through your venmo or other personal account, read this and take heed so you know how to categorize or report this $$$ when you do your taxes minnesotareformer.com/2026/03/19/m...

This has gotta be my best work setup yet.

lol wisconsin

My dead father in law would be happy. He kept removing himself from our family because of this.

feels like nobody wants this war except for supreme leader and a few of his most idiotic syncophants

Anyone locally actually know the local “band” The Gillyweeds or any of its members? It feels like it’s some weird elaborate AI hoax… I am mutuals with the person who did their artwork and “produced” their last album…

We've been talking about this in the group chat for the last hour. There goes my productivity today.

My #blizzardbrunch was reheated dominos from yesterday at my office. Nicollet Ave is a ghost town today.

yeah fuck off cross lake mayor.

Tree blew over in the wind overnight in front of my office. Already gone. Should have known it was risky to cut the roots out to put the sidewalk in this summer. Luckily, it caused no damage.

The third iteration of The Malt Shop is 🤌 So good.

It felt a touch early to be subjected to Steve Martin's F-bomb tirade in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, when I was a kid, but I'm pretty sure I let my own kids watch that when they were way younger, and I might have skipped that scene?

Happening now: Jamison Whiting staring at his equations, realizing he can't broker peace between the city's far left wackos and the supervillains.

If bluesky was down for you yesterday it’s because you’re on one of the servers that was having issues. They have many! https://status.bsky.app https://clearsky.app will tell you what server you’re on - click on my profile once you login.

No, we’re not…

So much for America First, eih?
