We really needed this rain

One of the benefits of the new BRT lines is that the #1 most crazymaking part of riding the bus—which is every sixth person who hits the pay box acting like they’re only just now hearing about how the bus works—is gone. Worth every person hopping on without a ticket

The union organizers who talk about Aramark truly know ball

We really don't talk about Aramark and Sodexo enough.

If during the ICE Occupation, you saw Brad Tabke, who won his last election by 14 votes, doing amazing work protecting his community from masked, armed paramilitaries, including stopping a warehouse concentration camp, because he knew it was the moral thing to do, you should help him win reelection.

Rumors of my death may have been exaggerated.

WATCH: New footage from a home security camera in shows National Guard soldiers tackle a woman to the ground, put her in handcuffs, and detain her seemingly without any justification or provocation🧵

Truly one of the stupidest and also best jokes in sitcom history

In electoral context: It doesn't matter how many posts you make (pro or anti), what matters is how many doors you're knocking, how many calls you're making, how many GOTV plans made. Only people paying attention to your expressions of sentiment are those already committed in some direction.

PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT Yer man got the jacket. It’s absolutely over for you hoes

A big through line of the last decade has been various parts of the broad liberal-progressive-left discovering the difference between there being coordinated interests within the Democratic Party Coalition vs there being a unified thing we can call the Democratic Party.

I wrote about "American Skin" back in february after the release of "Streets of Minneapolis," when people were complaining that Bruce Springsteen should be writing about the police shooting black people: www.salon.com/2026/02/10/b...

By destroying the regulatory state the Trump Admin is just speed running all the black ops stuff from Ministry for the Future

I recall 10-15 years ago there being a small yet vocal anti-anti-GMO cluster on the liberal-left who lacked much beyond a "I fucking love science!" + persistent desire to distance themselves from popular sentiment they didn't arrive at first. Now I think we're seeing a similar anti-anti-data center.

RETVRN

People have been asking me if I know of a resource like StandWithMinnesota for New Jersey, and I haven't found something comprehensive. So, for the moment, I have put together all the links to NJ orgs, crowdfunding links, events, and stuck them on a page of SWM. standwithminnesota.org/jersey

CYCLE OF HATE and then the pic is this

This morning, a neighbor was kidnapped by ICE in the Corcoran neighborhood. The individual had his window broken into, and he was snatched from his car. It would be great to get more observers out today and, moving forward, it would help to be more engaged in your local areas from 6AM-8AM. 1/

Yesterday was the filing deadline for many Minnesota races, and while there weren't any major late-breaking candidate announcements I do think it's notable that the MN GOP has no candidate fielded for 3 senate races and 14 house races; while the DFL has a candidate in every single legislative seat.

I think anything worth analyzing about the failure to challenge Klobuchar happened before March 1st, and any analysis of events since is Monday morning quarterbacking. We gotta understand why none of the (sizable!) bench of left electeds felt it was worth taking a crack and fix those conditions.

My wife hadn’t seen one before mine arrived. Her reaction: “Holy shit”

Yes’m

I only had to wait 2.5 months for my birthday present from my wife to arrive

Crop art in the MN Secretary of State’s office. The QR code works! At least it did for me. I hope my picture of it works too. 🌻🌻🌻

This is absolutely nuts: hackers are hijacking high-profile Instagram accounts by simply asking Meta's AI chatbot to change the email on the account. Meta's AI does it, hacker gets password reset code, they're in. A staggering security issue www.404media.co/hackers-simp...

Everybody's using this morning to shoot their best Pride tweets off, but as a Dad I just want you to know I'm proud of you all year long.

We really needed this rain

Honestly, I was expecting more Jacket photos…..

If I thought a new piece of technology was a net gain for society I would simply not let people widely viewed as untrustworthy, arrogant, and morally repugnant be the most prominent advocates.

We really needed this rain

Moved to Minnesota was a real culture shock, because people were like "I would kill and die for Julie Blaha" and I was like "the State Auditor?" and they I'd have to follow up and say "whoa put the knife away"

MUG vindicated

Stop the steal!

Republicans also having electronic balloting issues at their convention. Guess @twincitiesdsa.org is the only group in town that knows how to run digital voting systems. The socialist movement will be run on OpaVote / OpenSlides.

little point of Minnesota pride here: "All the agents who had been to Minnesota told me they never wanted to go back, for any reason."

☀️ 83°F didn't stop me from trying on just-delivered @saintpaulsaints Hipster Corduroy Jacket pre-order

Whatever opinions I have on the presumed DFL candidate for Gov, I do enjoy seeing GOPers lose by massive margins, so I hope Mike Lindell runs as an Independent

Today!

My beautiful St Paul jacket has been delivered and I am hours away from home Woe is meeeeeee

Sounds like The Jacket is arriving in homes, let's see these fits

I have obtained The Jacket

Contemplating my own masculinity as I enjoy a nice morning coffee with my freakin’ wife.

No matter how any specific primary or nomination goes, there will certainly be a large number of candidates who talk decent/good now, win by a wide margin in Nov, and still need a lot of continuous pressure day after week after month to take big bold steps going forward. Something to think about now
