Step 1: Make a playlist of 400-500 favorite songs. Step 2: Record a single custom track of you saying "Oh god, it's so hot. I'm burning, I'M BURNING! HELP, HELP, PLEASE SOMEONE LET ME OUT OF HERE AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHGGGG!" Step 3: Add track to playlist, set to random. Step 4: Die

If we can't pass a law banning fundraising texts, let's pass a law requiring candidates to read your replies to them. If they're gonna beg me for money I should at least get to swear at them a little, as a treat.

7 fundraising texts during the SotU. Sheesh.

Minnesota Constitution Art. VI, Sec. 9. Going around the back of the executive and legislative branch to negotiate policy with the federal government is beyond the pale for ANY judge. Absolutely "conduct prejudicial to the administration of justice." Chief Justice Hudson must resign, immediately.

The UK arrested Prince Andrew. Hakeem Jeffries is telling Democrats not to boo Trump at the State of the Union.

Ossoff: "Among today's false prophets are the election deniers who indulge this president's obsession with overturning the 2020 election. Hear me when I say this -- they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission."

I appreciate Klepper asking Frey about things like eviction moratorium, MPD assisting ICE, & how the mayor could do more, and I'm not surprised at all that Frey dodged those questions and responded with polite fluff. He praises Minneapolitans but we have to work harder because of his lack of effort.

Going to make a thread of every reason to NEVER vote for Newsom. Let's start with:

It’s not a withdrawal until ICE is abolished. I have neighbors everywhere.

Looking forward to Friday’s anticipated ICE drawdown, @governorwalz.mn.gov!

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

When a sitting representative refers to the Super Bowl halftime show as “pornography,” people should use that to reflect on how they and other representatives are simultaneously working to ban, censor, and restrict “pornography” and what that actually means

Well then play it. Play it again and again until there’s an answer. Make them answer for sending Nazi death troops to wage a war of terror against the U.S. civilian population.

To repeat. -- And to repeat: The political faction saying we must all have to log legal ID before speaking or accessing speech on the Internet, and the political faction who believe transgenderism is a dangerous mental contagion that spreads by speech about transgenderism, are the same faction.

We're not talking enough about how much the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department run by Dawanna Witt is collaborating with ICE. Arresting at Whipple, working with ICE to arrest legal observers, failing to trespass ICE when not welcome in hospitals and schools. Shame.

Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests

Christopher Nolan should have cast Helen of Troy the way the Greeks would have: by casting the most attractive young man in the company and giving him a really fuckable porcelain mask. Having a WOMAN play Helen of Troy??? Talk about inaccurate. The Greeks would fucking riot.

Shit is nuts. This week I spoke to a crim. defense attorney from mpls who mostly does federal work. He said a client got arrested with 19 pounds of meth & an indictment was coming. Then the feds had to forgo the indictment because they don’t have the resources. Walking away from 19 pounds of meth!

I want to make sure I got this right. They could have stopped funding to DHS and ICE by forcing a shutdown. But instead, they threw them a couple more weeks money to keep terrorizing citizens?

Not sure who is making Greg Bovino’s travel arrangements out of Minnesota but heads up babies in laps don’t need to buy their own seat

The funniest shit is that I feel like the huge turnout downtown is almost because of the cold not in spite of it. The fact that it’s -10 degrees out led to just more defiance, like thousands out there saying, it isn’t even that bad out.

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation. Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

This poll shows that 74% of Democrats support abolishing ICE, with 53% *strongly* supporting getting rid of the agency. Any elected Democrat who wants ICE to exist is outside the mainstream of their party and the people they purport to represent.

E.B. White giving it to reply guys

Would @cbsnews.com lie to us? #hacks

getting awful sick of hearing liberals use domestic abuser logic to chide protestors for property damage as the state murders people

“ICE agents, get out now because historically, this ends with you hanging from a lamppost and your body paraded through the streets.” - the …we rate dogs guy

Remember the video of that door busting ICE raid over the weekend? Not only was it done without a proper warrant, but the man they were looking for had checked in with ICE two weeks earlier. The chaos and violence is a performance. www.fox9.com/news/judge-i...

The sex goods shop going from "we do not have the capacity or the desire for a gloryhole" to having the capacity and desire to run a full blown supply distribution center for the community is incredible stuff

Counter protest is in downtown to prevent Nick Lang and co from making their way to cedar riverside! the organizers at CAIR MN put out this vid to clear things up www.instagram.com/reel/DTinxwF...

This 100% goes for that copypasta that is circulating around right now telling people that "community leaders" want everyone to stay home on Saturday. Stop sharing it, you have no idea where it actually came from.

This is why we celebrate the Boston Substack Party, when the patriots wrote strongly worded pamphlets about tea.

Some ICE vehicles got taken and a streamer is saying that the entire MPLS city wide battle plan, operational overviews, tactical details and agent lists + id info just got found in the car lmao these clowns driving around with hatchbacks full of their whole shit like the villains in an immersive sim

Jacob Frey meeting with national reporters who don’t know anything about his failures

is this about Greenland or Minneapolis?

Petition to change the Minnesota motto from the French "L'Étoile du Nord" ("The Star of the North") to "Tread On Me and Slip," with inspiration from Scotland's "NEMO ME IMPUNE LACESSIT" ("No one provokes me with impunity")

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness. You could be next.

Privacy advocates: ICE using private data to intimidate observers and activists

Thinking to myself "as cold as it feels to you, it's way fucking worse for them" has a warming effect that makes the temperature a bit more bearable.

Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.
