Imagine if the story is true, clear documentation exists, and the public release is what swiftly causes it to happen.

We’re still in the “everyone working for the WH imagines This Is It”. Once we get to “some people in the WH are thinking about What Comes Next” is when the zesty stuff starts.

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

Signed!

Last night Indeed workers held a powerful picket line outside the NE Mpls taproom to keep the pressure on management to settle a fair contract. Appreciate everyone who made it out & everyone who has signed the online letter. If you haven't signed please do & please pass the link to others!

Some thoughts on decency, empathy, and being decent. stuckness.ghost.io/decency/

Not sure what shorthands to use for a social media version of the engineering triangle, yet there's tradeoffs that the power user (consumer) doesn't like to confront. You can have two of this list - Wide User Base - Robust Infra (Ex: Strong Yet Nuanced Moderation) - Not Funded By Ads or Investors

“I’m a Grok guy” is the single most embarrassing phrase ever uttered in the course of human history.

TCDSA showed up in solidarity to two picket lines today: the Starbucks Worker’s United Red Cup Rally on the 1st day of their open-ended strike & the UNITE HERE local 17 informational picket at Indeed Brewing!

"First US born Pope excommunicates US President" is an increasingly plausible headline, and if/when it happens it will be a coin toss whether it is the #1 headline of the day

It's a slow news day so I decided to share my St. Paul Mayoral election first choice votes dot density map. Same deal as my Minneapolis map. All points are randomly placed within each precinct. Let me know if you have any questions or thoughts! arcg.is/19uH482

Deeply proud of the work we accomplished this year in @twincitiesdsa.org. All volunteer, fully member funded. I've made DSA my organizing home for 9 years now because it's disciplined and focused on building the power and infrastructure we need to win. Join us at go.dsausa.org/twincities

When Twin Cities DSA members voted to endorse @OmarFatehMN.com for mayor, we knew the task before us would be hard. Landlords, Wall Street developers & corporations like Lyft poured millions of dollars into this election to spread racist, Islamophobic lies to protect their profits.

remember that week where mike johnson was saying stuff like Trump was an FBI informant working to take down epstein from the inside. then he got lightly challenged on it and stopped saying it

Democrats at every level of power could simply repeat "he must resign" over and over and over again. It's what the GOP would do if the situation were reversed. Further erode his power by pushing him to lash out more.

Tonight was a good test run for when It Happens

Amazing!! #northernlights

Honestly the absence of "Northern Lights, Minnesota" on the trending topics list is proof of anti-Minnesota shadow banning coming down from the highest levels of Bluesky

i wish my mother were still alive, and we ever lived in minnesota, and she were still there, because i would do the aurora borealis joke over the phone just for myself because it would mean nothing to her unless i also wished that she had ever watched the simpsons which i suppose i could

Hello lovely.

Aurora Borealis. Saint Paul, MN

From a St Paul Dept of Safety and Inspections email: construction permit for a new $11m CBP building construction permit at 670 Bayfield Street next to the downtown StP airport. Note location right near the runways. "Great" place to deport from! @mollycoleman.bsky.social @melvincarter.bsky.social

Threw together some notes from this whirlwind 24 hours:

For everyone using TouchTunes today to play "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" remember that it will cost you 3 credits instead of 2 due to the length of the song.

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

no matter what the circumstances, democrats are always saving their energy for a mythical future situation where they will do something good

Tina Smith should be the first to call for replacing Schumer since she's already not running again. And if she's not up to the task of breaking senatorial congeniality for the greater good then she should resign and allow Walz to appoint someone who can actually fight for the next year.

Reminds me of this 1910 postcard, depicting St Paul as the "center of the earth"

Wish I could recall who deserves credit for "I don't actually think Dem leaders are controlled opposition, but if they were how would it look much different?

Trump getting booed at the Commanders game

is it good when the dems in the house of representatives start calling for the senate to be abolished

This is why the Winged Wheel represents Saint Paul

I think I would move to a remote part of Alaska rather than give a quote to the New York Times about how great it was to get a hug from a robot.

I helped plant a seed last year at work. It grew into a bakery.

sometimes an Oxford comma can make all the difference

lmao.
