WE DID IT! Yesterday was the largest single day of protest in modern U.S. history. Across more than 3,300 protests, marches, and demonstrations in all 50 states and abroad, at least 8 million of us gathered to say: America is a democracy, not a dictatorship. This country does not belong to kings.

On Thur. March 26th, folks from Duluth, MN to San Antonio, TX will be gathing on bridges that cross I-35 to promote the big NO KINGS rally taking place on March 28th. Spread the word. Sign up your bridge at: dmbr.org

I don't find sarcastic comments about beating people with a bag of rocks funny or acceptable. We are dealing with to much violence in our society right now to normalize this kind of rhetoric.

Drush's Final Act Interesting proposal to make drush obsolete. "My end goal here is the death of Drush. It has served an incredibly long and useful life. Its death will be its most impactful and generous act." https://weitzman.github.io/blog/drush-final-act

I like to check in from time to time to see how the Timberwolves were doing on this date last year. Here is where I find the info. www.basketball-reference.com/leagues/NBA_...

Also on this day in 2020, a lovely sunset at one of the coolest ever beaches. #Iceland

U2 has now also released a song directly referencing Minneapolis and Renee Good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y3zi...

Best way to get me interested in a segment of a late night talk show, is to have FCC chair Brendan Carr tell me that I can't watch it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=oh7D...

Playing Horseless Carriage tonight. (First time). I've played some complicated games before. But I don't think I've ever seen a game with this many pieces. #BoardGames

This is the Task Master interview I've been waiting for.

The Bangladeshi Nationalist Party (BNP), led by Tarique Rahman, claimed victory Friday in the first elections held since the previous government was toppled in a student-led revolution in 2024. n.pr/4rgSK3n

I think that most Minnesotans understand: 1) That ending the ICE surge does not end ICE presence or activity in Minnesota. It just goes back to pre-surge levels. 2) That the surge is just moving elsewhere in USA to disrupt other communities. 3) This is not over.

"As many as 1,400 people were killed during 2024's weekslong anti-government protests, most at the hands of security forces, according to the UN." Today Bangladesh is having their first election since that violence. www.bbc.com/news/live/cd...

Many of the worst dictatorships in history were born from leftist ideology. I hope we can keep that in mind as we try to dig ourselves out of this mess we are in and that we are thoughtful and cautious about what comes next.

Supposedly this video has 180K views, which can't be correct. I must have watched it close to 100k times myself. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Vlg...

This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

I heard threats of blanket retribution coming from one ICE opponent today that are as terrifying to me as what I'm seeing from ICE and DHS. I hope we can do better than that.

I work with a team of talented developers in Bangladesh and will be thinking of them today as the head into this election. Hoping that things go better for their country as a result of this election. Two years ago they were on extended lock-down, internet shut off, and violence in the streets.

Just for the record, I didn't know that Canada was treating the US so unfairly! Are they really?

The halftime show was "different/interesting". I didn't understand it and I didn't especially connect with the music. But, I enjoy seeing new things and stretching myself. I was certainly not offended in any way. If it irritated a few closed minded folks, that's a plus.

"What the president of the United States did today with Obama and Michelle Obama and just uh how deplorable and racist this is as a distraction tactic." Dan LeBatard and team has a political rant today. www.youtube.com/watch?v=LXvd...

I tried watching Star Trek Discovery (seasons 1-3) in advance of watching Star Trek Starfleet Academy. Discovery is just bad. I'm very surprised this lasted 5 seasons.

Rest in peace Renee Good. Thank you for supporting our immigrant neighbors. You’ll always be our hero. 🕊️ 💜

Haven't seen any #WNBA contract updates lately, so I looked it up. www.espn.com/wnba/story/_... Seems that the league just put forward it's latest offer. "This ended a more than six-week wait from the players association for a counter to its last offer." #Lynx

Minnesota United preseason games begin on Saturday watch all games on mnufc.com -Sat Feb 7 Loons v Sporting Kansas City 3:30 CT -Wed Feb 11 Loons v DC United 2:30 CT -Sat Feb 14 Loons v Charlotte 12 CT

The books felt like this, too. They’re like a kids’ book version of the original series, with more straightforward morality and two clear good guys in Dunk and Egg. Loved em!

The big trade hasn't kicked in yet. Starting on Sunday everything will be better.

Can I manage two different accounts with the official Bluesky android phone app? Not seeing how right now?

I created a new account for chatting about the Minnesota Timberwolves and Lynx. I don't like mixing my despair about current politics with my use of sports as a distraction. @stpaultim.bsky.social is where I'll talk about current events and opensource software. #NBA #WNBA #Timberwolves #Lynx

As much excitement as there was for a potential Giannis trade, there was a lot of nervousness, too, at the prospects of saying goodbye to some valued players. Jaden is staying. Naz is staying. Julius is staying. Rudy is staying. Nothing ever got close with MLW. Wolves march on.

Happy end of NBA trade speculation and rumors day, to all who celebrate.

It's weird watching the Timberwolves tonight, knowing that some of the players might be playing their final game on the team.

Some people seem to love speculating and discussing possible trades for the home team. Not, me. I find this stressful. Can't wait for trade deadline to pass. #Timberwolves

But also, this may be one of the best conflict-of-interest statements ever?

Trump and his nazi minions are running a savage concentration camp here in Minneapolis. @kellymorrisonmn.bsky.social details it:

I'm hearing a lot about why the Timberwolves SHOULD trade for Giannis if possible and that he would be worth a high price tag. Here is a thoughtful counter opinion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-iW...

Another statement by sports pundit, Nick Wright. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pig0...

One example of an NBA player speaking up. It's pretty mild, but at the same time it's pretty powerful for someone in his position. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1gGE...

I think Dillingham has given up passing the ball. Just grabbing as many points as he can, before getting traded.

Is it safe to listen to Timberwolves podcasts again?

I got permission from a friend of mine who is an immigration lawyer to share their Instagram post on my feed here. If you are looking directly for another place to help/direct aid, I know they are close to reaching their goal and every little bit helps!

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

We profiled refugees who: Arrived in the country legally. Applied for green cards. Were arrested by ICE and detained. One refugee who was arrested found out they got their green card after being released. This is an unprecedented operation. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/26/u...

Wolves finally snap a miserable, five-game losing streak against the zombie Warriors. Seeing Bones Hyland get going was the most significant development. 17 points on 6-9 with 7r and 5a. He's so important right now.

Why is Edwards sitting out this game? #Timberwolves

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE
