Please do not purchase Luck be a Landlord on Xbox. I will be making a $10,000 donation to The Palestine Children's Relief Fund to (hopefully) help offset the revenue the game has generated for Microsoft.

Well Being in Times of Algorithms—An essay towards a better World Wide Web, and how well-being is connected to social media.

The city’s youngest mayor was also, arguably, its most progressive. St. Paul Mayor Melvin Carter reflects on what went wrong on Election Night — and what went right across eight crisis-driven years in office. www.twincities.com/2025/12/21/q...

@chrisbratt.bsky.social back at it with a masterful display of what the games community can accomplish. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ybj1...

Wrote my annual* list of the best songs of the year, check it out if you like alt-country or the year 2002 or want to discover the next Radiohead before nobody in music circles can shut up about them in 12 months *that I only sometimes actually publish

Hey Minneapolis please read!⬇️

After ICE did this in Illinois, the Secretary of State revoked the plates, sent a cease and desist to ICE, threatened to suspend rental car licenses for allowing ICE to swap plates and set up a tip hotline to report plate tampering. MN deserves the same action. www.ilsos.gov/news/2025/de...

We have received so many donations and we are still almost out of blankets AGAIN. If you have extras, if you can go to the Goodwill By the Pound locations, if you can find a bag sale, we give them out at the same rate as we are getting them in, it is dangerously cold out.

Just sent $250 to @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social , down to match another $250 if folks send me venmo confirms

Someone yesterday posted on the i94 conversation about how the whole process seems to be asking what the road wants, not about what the constituents who exist near the road/use the road want. I feel like a similar thing is happening in ai, what does the llm want? Not what do us folks want.

There isn't much i feel like is missing from the twin cities canon, but we do need a place with the energy of @wonderville.nyc , it's imperative i'd say.

We need to permanently retire "get that bag" and bring back the shame of selling out!! Sorry!!

sounds like a Racket article to me tbh

church doodles.

noon means it's time to report every single commercial property and rental larger than a duplex who have not cleared snow from their sidewalks yet! deadline is UP!

Normalize asking what things mean

From the Southwest Voices newsletter: Minneapolis Public Works screwed up the sidewalk cafés.

This is the primary advantage, but yes they are also very bright

A verified true fact is that Bob Prevost saw Blues Brothers at the Roseville 4, and now as the holy father is doing papal bulls affirming the sacredness of movie mindset. Good things coming out of Europe's microstates

@leaflet.pub dream feature, the ability to reference cards from other people's leaflets, and having those cards work exactly how local cards work

Blind Alley No 389

thinking of the potential of using @leaflet.pub as a commonplace graph of sorts. I feel like reading leads to branching paths, and storing those paths as a graph (not yet searchable, would be sick) along with collected quotes would be fascinating, then maybe tied together based on referenced works..

Should out @spiralganglion.com and future (feeling?) of programming (coding?) (computing?) for a great ep on eso (lang?) (music?) (games?), and for the dys4ia mention, everyone should play it, and check out every mediafire link left working on freeindiegam.es, the only important website

Also... if anyone builds this before me, hmu I may have a great domain for you

Why stop at two?

Somebody call Bill McGuire and get this done.

When that CVS it finally torn down, the only rational next step is building Spruce Tree's mirror on the other side.

I’m raising money for Groveland Emergency Food Shelf, a South Minneapolis nonprofit that provides emergency groceries for those in need. They’re currently struggling to keep up with demand, and they’re getting their first $16k in donations matched. I’ve got $50 on it! Can anyone match me?

This seems outrageously cruel. And just a handful of months before these folks would have been set to enjoy the release of one of the biggest games of their careers too. The imbalance of power in the games industry remains utterly fucked.

To my mind, fencing off pedestrian right of ways which were authorized and funded by state and local jurisdictions without a public review process is blatantly illegal. No different from Trump closing federal departments he doesn't like.

Very first light rail vehicle through West 21st Street Station in Minneapolis!

has anyone written about the process of conversational repair in analog games? specifically thinking about stuff like: - "i move my meeple 5 spaces" "i think it's 6 spaces" - "oh, last turn i should've given you an extra 3 tokens. do you want them now?" - "it's too late now, but for next time..."
