Chicago is a cycling city after all

I think his mental state is in rapid decline and everyone around him is independently going after their own depraved pet project

Did you know that a big portion of the Pioneer Press archives are now online? A century of searchable news starting in 1861, that was previously relegated to microfische. www.twincities.com/2025/09/25/m...

I de-facebook-ified it: leaflet.pub/c44e9235-1f9...

I wrote 2,000 words about the 2025 Saint Paul election if you need something to quibble about today. My apologies that it is on Facebook but it's 2,000 words. www.facebook.com/share/p/1BJZ...

If you just say a place name in a skeet with an exclamation, like, "C'mon Seattle!" or "Watch out, Miami!" I can't tell if it's about football or some kind of federal activity happening there.

When the Indianapolis Indians play the St. Paul Saints on opening day next year, we’re going to see a combined total of seven interlocking cap logo letters on the field at the same time. That has to be a record.

US Civil War What-If I've yet to see explored is one where the war lasts through 1867 and the Confederacy faces a presidential election while the war persists

Step 1 of authoritarian consolidation: Destroy state capacity Step 2: antagonize security forces

St Paul DSI is in proceedings to force the demolition of the blighted CVS building at Uni/Snelling. If you are cool and you live in St Paul you will email [email protected] and tell them that you support requiring the demo of that building

There are an uncountable number of ghosts haunting these people's minds, slights that no sane person could remember or articulate are appearing in these people's dreams and driving them mad

Well don't I feel stupid

Time for a new constitution!

It took Trump 60 minutes to murmur out a wet "that's all, folks!" before the UN Tuesday. Given that he was talking to himself and no one outside the greater Trumpiverse can hear him, it's the only thing he could say.

Feel like if this is how the law works, there’s no reason to make a budget deal because there’s no reason to believe anything that you win via Congress will actually happen anyway.

Happy 40th Birthday to my one of my oldest and dearest friends, @stagemadness.bsky.social. Let's get a "Happy DanDay" going in the chat.

Talk Of Fascism Dangerous, Warns Ministry Of Compliance

We know that that beer is down and THC seltzer is up. But the relationship between the two isn't that simple. For my column this week at @vinepair.com, I interviewed folks in the country's most mature hemp-bev market on how the Great American Crossfade is actually playing out on the ground.

you are about to see the nation’s beer distributors—aka “the toughest lobby you’ve never heard of”—lose their fucking minds

The "young male loneliness" debate, like the "is it fascism?" debate, makes it easy to get stuck in an unresolvable academic back & forth with dwindling space for talking about (much less acting upon) concrete things to deal with the problem regardless of what label is ultimately decided.

The cure to male loneliness, nay, all loneliness is to purchase multiple feet of submarine sandwich and then invite people over to drink up all of the beer that has accumulated in your basement refrigerator over the past year.

This reminds me of when we were doing a rent stabilization planning process in St. Paul, a landlord called into a zoom meeting from a beach bar while on a tropical vacation and complained that rent control was going to destroy his livlihood. You can't make this shit up!

It is pretty crazy the extent to which the landlord class, when not protected by a PR and legal team, will just come out and say that they believe themselves to be our social betters and shouldn't be held accountable.

was definitely interesting seeing the demand for "hard truths" about BLM and also the demand to carefully consider the "economic anxiety" behind MAGA overlap in time (and in some characters)

EXCLUSIVE: Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin will halt abortions in October in response to the GOP budget "defunding" provision It's the first known PP affiliate to drop abortion services in the wake of the law:

Kinda curious what answer JD would give if he was asked "and why is being called a Nazi a bad thing?"

They've lost the 9yos

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Early voting is afoot! Now is as good a time as ever to vote Yes on Question 1 in St Paul, so we can be a normal city www.voteyesforafairerstpaul.com

Happy three years since I asked @dogsbestfriend.bsky.social to marry me! She still makes me happy every day!

Hearing that this round of Rapture-watch was just some guy calling a shot and picking Rosh Hashanah basically out of hat is kinda lame. Guys used to do like an acrostic of Leviticus, then run it through some numerology to predict the Rapture. No one wants to work anymore!

Wow 7 people from Minneapolis to go against 5 from Saint Paul. I guess whatever it takes to make it a fair matchup!

Greetings from Chisholm

We like to say things are "beyond parody" however it is wild to recognize that even on the Righteous Gemstones when a character had to literally carry a cross they did so without wheel assistance.

Someone who I can’t recall right now said a Dylan performance exists outside of the good/bad continuum. It just is.
