If we could please stop anthropomorphizing LLM’s that would be great.

I’m finally getting into an IOP program next Monday after three weeks of phone tag 🙏🏻

Every season is soup season, but since I started Lexapro, it’s even more so. Anyway, being dehydrated makes me actually experience the side effects I’ve learned.

PM press recently had a sale so I grabbed a random assortment of zines and books to add to my TBR

Reason number whatever I love living in Saint Paul: Tow guy was able to get my car to a place that was open today and I got my tire fixed for under $25.

Stressed. Eating noods. Featuring Pad Kee Mow from Mango Thai

Do I call AAA now before it’s snowing or tomorrow at a reasonable hour but it might be snowing.

So I had anxiety all day thinking something bad would happen

I need to put air in one of my tires. Why is this always happening when it’s less than 30° out? 😩 I know why I’m just mad about it

I want a sabbatical only winning a lottery can provide

Constant laughs. Wish I watched it sooner.

I have DOMS from my PT appointment I’m that out of ahape.

Minneapolis/St. Paul is the only place on the planet with a private locals only feed on Bluesky. There’s a non-zero chance someone in the Twin Cities is literally only seeing and talking to other locals on here right now. “Do you know there are other people on here?” Honestly no, not really

Picked a random movie to watch & landed on this. I found it pretty enjoyable. It leans on millennial humor, so if you’re not the target audience, you might not like it as much.

My upstairs neighbor got a walking pad and I finally had my question answered if it’s loud or not.

Current status of the fundraisers for those killed by ICE: Renee Good: $1,499,580 Alex Pretti: $1,289,249 Keith Porter, Jr. $302,423 Parady La: $45,848 Heber Sanchez Dominguez: $47,991 Luis Beltrán Yanez Cruz: $18,640 Victor Manuel Diaz: $2,538 Geraldo Lunas: $2,260 Luis Gustavo Núñez: $1,935

Sometimes not saying anything at all is best. Oof

Oh, you have a quiz due? Have you thought instead just cleaning your whole apartment?

Deleting Signal now that I know it’s been compromised. Find me on Gaia online

Tone change isn’t a policy change

Announcement! Black Hart & Black Garnet Books are teaming up for Black History Month! All month long, if you come in and show a receipt from Black Garnet for a book you’ve purchased, you get 50% off a Heggies Pizza!

oh commuters just found the motherlode of ice agents at a suburban hotel, including, potentially, bovino himself. a bunch of confirmed ICE and CBP cars from the bovino convoy there. spring hill suites in maple grove. people of the twin cities, do with this info what you will.

Went to the store to grab some essentials(jalapeños)

One of the best organizers I know in the Twin Cities has a great line, "We can't always take away the hurt, but we can take away the alone."

Protesters chanting "We're not cold, we're not afraid, Minne[apolis/sota] taught us to be brave" in Boston tonight outside Government Center station.

I’ve been eating a lot of fucking jalapeños 😭

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

I can’t make nobody do nothing but I’m over this A wonderful man who was trying to protect a woman, who took care of vets , had a legal gun Was killed in cold blood I do not care to dissect how the cowards try to justify this I don’t wanna hear from the folks who thought this was a game

people outside of the Twin Cities continue to have the most tone deaf shit to say

Settings > Content and media > Autoplay videos and GIFs > Toggle off I really don’t need to see it.

Live somewhere else and want to lecture people on the ground right now? As an alternative, may I suggest fucking off into the sun

I’m tired of this coup. ffs we really are on our own

There has been an increasing sense in Minneapolis that we are on our own, that our elected representatives are unwilling and/or unable to take action to get these murderous Nazi thugs out of our community. I really hope that changes today. The time for pleading TV hits ended weeks ago.

ICE attacked an observer after they tailed a group of clergy on a spiritual pilgrimage. Our digital producer @sam.vp just so happened to be with the clergy on their journey. He spoke with the observer who was attacked and others who witnessed the assault.

I finally googled what food noise is. I always thought it was the sound of people chewing loudly, apparently not. Instead, it’s the voice in your head thinking about planning what you’re gonna eat for dinner?

Stay warm strikers

Nothing like a little brown out during a cold snap 😓

just now realizing that I’ve had a pound of jalapeños every other day this week I probably should add a little variety in my diet

This is the key thing that white commenters keep refusing to understand or at least acknowledge: "can we just team up until the fascism is over" isn't cool to say when half the people saying it don't mean the part where YOU are in constant danger, just the part where THEY are in danger.

This is who federal agents are ripping out of their communities and shipping across the country. This is the danger we're being protected from.

we need to know who this muthah truckah is he will be held accountable

According to all of the compliance training that I have to take regularly since I work at a bank, I can assure you the whites are doing OK

If he’s dead we would know b/c TMZ would be all over it.

If I didn’t sleep so much, I could be watching this while I’m the treadmill
