The power lines set was so cool on many levels.

So, first it was the occupation, then it was the trade deadline. Now what’s the Timberwolves’ excuse? Aside from the OKC game, it’s been hard to watch. Today there was a first quarter sequence where they turned it over 4 straight times and then Randle got blocked. I’d be embarrassed.

Pronunciation I-O, not A-O, podcasting dudes.

This season of Bridgerton is one of the better books in the series (IMO). In the book, Benedict has a cold. In the show, he somehow gets torso tears defending maids from sexual assault. The cold makes him more vulnerable & more likable. Some showrunners don’t trust romance authors & it’s just dumb.

I keep watching Ian McKellan do the Stranger’s Case on Colbert every time it pops up in my feed, so I wanted to see how they set it up. The whole interview is good, but if you want to get to the performance, skip to about 20. youtu.be/2l2RqzVG4ag?...

Good piece by my @mprnews.org colleague @jcollins.bsky.social niemanreports.org/minneapolis-...

Currently experiencing that time-honored Minnesota tradition where it’s above freezing and everyone is waiting in line for the car wash that will take a month of salt off the vehicles.

GSW is out of the Giannis pursuit, right? The fact that Ant complimented Jaden tonight really makes me worry about what dealing Slim would mean to this team, whose members have a tendency to work themselves into knots. He stays here in summers, works hard, improves, and grinds. Keep him.

Anthony Edwards, man. Wow.

Not a good idea to scrap with DDV, even if you’re bigger.

What if the Mike trade was just about reducing the tax burden?

I was on vacation and missed this. Appreciate that DDV took the time to tuck in his sleeves. Biceps bared and Ginger beard representation switched on for the community.

I’m not a Vikings fan but I’ll take every MN victory right now.

ICE breaking their door down without a warrant was just the start of a miserable ordeal. What bravery to make this story public, knowing that you’re already a target. 🙏🏻 youtu.be/UVYy57H30DU?...

THESE LAWLESS MOTHERFUCKERS.

Mike. 😢 I’ll miss him so much. Seems like it was time. I will now begin prepare fortifications to keep Jaden in the building.

I just got back from vacation in a very different time zone, where I just casually checked scores and felt above the ups and downs of this Wolves team. Wishing I could stick my ears into the ocean and listen to the whale calls at the moment.

Mike looks real bad against a lackluster team. I’m sad about it. Don’t get why he’s out there, TBH.

So, FanDuel’s camera looks like they smeared Vaseline over the lens and the sold two commercials for the first break? Ruh roh.

Really don’t GAF about these body cameras. These ghouls have killed two people aware that they were being filmed, including filming themselves. This is a distraction to appease conservatives.

These motherfuckers aren’t stopping just because Bovino is going to terrorize people elsewhere.

Kare 11 local news just read, in full, this statement from Michael and Susan Pretti, the parents of Alex Pretti. "Please get the truth out about our son."

Was in a filled room today that reminded me that college students and the people who teach them and/or run support are amazing. Witnessed people stepping up in so many ways and finding humor in the darkness. Be safe and stay warm tomorrow, Minnesota. ❤️

Wow. What a mess.

They just look so out of synch. Rudy just came over and got in Ant’s space after the pick. Plus, this “defense.”

I keep building and rebuilding playlists and every one has this song at the forefront. We don’t have to do this to kids, for fuck’s sake. I’m so angry. youtu.be/BLcM3fq6Quk?...

Please help us bring Liam Adrian Cornejo Ramos (he’s only 5 years of age and is currently in pre-K. Yesterday, he and his father were kidnapped by ICE. This will help the family with legal services to help reunite Liam and his dad with their family. gofund.me/be8a1b2ab

Bueckers just got 37 points and won $50K for an #Unrivaled free throw challenge. She won that game for the Breeze. Just so scary good. Shooter making shots. 🎉

Lan Down. 😜 #Unrivaled

Important announcement: I do not like that the Eagan Costco has moved the butter out of the dairy room.

JFC. Two SPPS special ed vans stopped this week and now this.

I don’t want any city to be the “next” city. I want them out of here and I want them to go live on a 1980s cruise line in the ocean, where the only people they can harm are themselves and the technology is outdated and they have to bail water all the time and have diarrhea from the bad food.

Men posting about MN professional sports teams never winning championships…Lynx and Frost, fellas. Just put a little qualifier about men not winning championships, ok?

☮️ & 🖕🏻

Both of those Texas games hurt in different ways. Rockets because they could’ve won that it if they played cleaner and worked together. Spurs because they forgot stingy defense & working together on offense was a thing & dug themselves a real big hole. Short staffed for both, but what team isn’t?

Anthony gets 55 with an infected toe and a wonky hamstring. Incredible.

Hey, officials. Don’t get pissed at coaches when you miss the fucking fouls. Unbelievable that you would choose to insert yourself in the game like that. I’m laughing because this is what officiating in the W looks like on a good day.

Would love to know what Jaden said to Castle. I’ve also noticed that Jaden is directing the defense tonight. It’s a huge step and I love it.

Speaks to the quality of officiating that there have been two challenges in as many minutes. 🫠

I'm sure everyone will be SHOCKED to hear that the videos do not show the whole "people came out and attacked ICE with snow shovels" thing that ICE claimed was what happened. This was not a remotely defensive gunshot.

Lord. This Timberwolves team just fully can’t work together if they start flailing. Too much “I’m gonna fix it by myself” and not enough “we are going to fix this together.”

Got wrapped up in a very hysterical game of Telestrations. Just turned the game on. Looks like the first quarter went ok?

How much more in your face can it be? "Why are you asking me for my paperwork?" "Because of your accent." "You have an accent too." "Where were you born sir?" "Where were you born at?" "Put your hands behind your back."

I really enjoyed when the wolves were playing together in the first quarter. And that’s the only positive thing I have to say about this game.

Refs let this game get out control. It’s a shame. Inconsistent reffing confuses players.

I hate listening to national commentators. The level of analysis is “it’s interesting.”

That was clearly the Mike moving screen call and I’ll never forgive this crew for neglecting to do the job.

How ridiculous that a team has to challenge a player stepping that far out of bounds.
