I think Mamdani has a massively uphill battle to be an effective mayor, but unlike most people we elect here, he seems to realize that.

"I was elected as a democratic socialist and I will govern as a democratic socialist."

No matter where we go from here I cannot believe we, as DSA, in under 10 years of reconstitution, elected a guy to govern the most important city in the world that says in his inaugural speech: “I was elected as a democratic socialist and I will govern as a democratic socialist.”

Get you friends who know how to properly decapitate a bottle of champagne in Arctic temperatures.

I love New Years more than almost any other holiday because it reminds us that we should give ourselves and those closest to us some grace regarding the past, while striving for something higher in the bear future, even if we know it will be a challenge to attain.

We’re gonna win.

New Year's Day is probably the most special holiday of the year to me. A day dedicated to the proposition that people, things, the world can and do change, a day that those of us who get stuck in our ways need more than anyone.

If I were this guy I would absolutely get sworn in on Karl Marx's personal copy of the Quran just to make losers have strokes

Just making sure that 2025 is definitely over

The MN GOP, including all candidates for governor, support masked men being able to walk into your kids daycare without identifying themselves while lying about enrolling fake children.

When Nick Shirley arrived to "test" if he could enroll his son "Joey" in Minneapolis day cares, his viral video omitted that he showed up with an entourage of masked men acting like security, multiple vehicles including vans, cameras, and men who wouldn't identify themselves. One day care owner /

you know who has had it too good for too long in this society? that's right. people who have to take care of other people's kids every day

[To the tune of “A Long December” by Counting Crows youtu.be/FDnzwZbifrc ] A No-Norm December He's not reading any posts He's gone offline to protect his mental health I can’t remember the last thing he posted and deleted Now he just texts me all his jokes

I live in Minnesota. I’m not from here but chose it, in part because of the diversity, the supportive environment for kids and families, and the overall sense of community that makes those sides work well. Now it’s all under attack by the federal government and the President of the United States.

i do find it a fascinating assumption rightwingers are making that they should be able to walk into any daycare center and observe random peoples children whenever they want

“Minnesota House Speaker Lisa Demuth said Monday that her caucus steered YouTube creator Nick Shirley to day care sites in Minnesota.” I feel like it should be a bigger part of the story that this was coordinated with MN GOP leaders, and spread and boosted on Elon’s X

Our photographer Alex Kormann captured the exact moment the presses stopped for the last time in Minneapolis, ending a 158 history of locally printed newspapers.

Snow is already insane outside. If you must travel by car today anywhere in the Twin Cities for a true necessity (food, medical) you should go NOW.

Of all the local quirks people like to turn into something "Minnesotans always leave the last piece of food" is so weird to focus on cuz like, do *you* want the last piece of whatever? If so go ahead & just eat it! But if you observe the phenomenon & don't change it you're just doing the same thing!

My frozen custard is changing the course of history

it's that time of year when a bunch of people start pretending their personal distaste for the avatar franchise can bend reality in their favor against the inevitable tide of james "big jim" cameron's next guaranteed blockbuster smash hit. you can ignore them, they are fools

The only people with decent politics still using X should be those actively engaged in monitoring right-wing online developments as an early warning system. Anyone else still using it and then complaining about Stormfront-level responses is doing something I neither understand nor can empathize with

In a somewhat ironic twist, I feel about as patriotic as I ever have after doing ICE watch outside a mosque today.
