<———- Has been on Ayd Mill Road twice in the last two weeks.

<——— Hadn’t been on Ayd Mill road in probably 30-odd years.

Was talking to someone new on here recently about how one upside of everything is finding out there are loads of cool people in town you haven't followed yet. I saw this person's avatar and about fell out of my chair (and followed)!

That people are taking Tom Homan, a documented corrupt goon who built up the infrastructure of mass deportation in this county, as some voice of reason is a failure of an entire society.

We need some language in the nomination that a very specific list of people are not allowed to accept the award on behalf of the city. Like, they don't even get to be on stage or associated with this in any way, shape or form.

I liked it better when songs about Minneapolis were about how pumped the singer was to only have 24 hours left in the tour bus before they got back to the city, back to life.

The Hortmans were assassinated seven months ago. The Annunciation Church school shooting was five months ago. Renee Good was murdered three weeks ago to the day. It has been eight days since they took 5-year-old Liam Ramos and his father. It has been four days since Alex Pretti was murdered.

Rabbits United Against ICE Minnehaha Parkway Minneapolis, MN 1/28/26

After the Springsteen song, YouTube autoplay served up Bowie and Reznor's "I'm Afraid of Americans".

Boosting this GFM for Ward 11 rental assistance organized by @jamisonwhiting.bsky.social. Also includes an email address for folks in W11 to contact if they need assistance: www.gofundme.com/f/minneapoli...

just saw 4 ice agents go up to a house and knock and within 1 minute there were 30 people out whistling and they left. we will not take our foot off the gas

“A popular destination for protestors.” The word is locals. People who live here.

Very little if anything seems to have changed on the ground. ICE is still out there terrorizing neighborhoods and trying to disappear neighbors. None of us on the ground are buying this bullshit. We will keep organizing and fighting.

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

If I was a Democratic leader-type person, I simply wouldn't go on the podcast where the guy looks so confused by everything he hears. "Wait, wait, wait, wait....Wait! You're telling me that cold, thin, but strangely savory pancake comes from.....the poe-tate-TOE??!!!"

I can't wait to see how we make Tom Homan crash out. He's an alcoholic so I think we can really leverage that. Let's get him a DUI and a set of whiskey plates

"Patient, plodding, a green skin growing over whatever winter did to us, a return to the strange idea of continuous living despite the mess of us, the hurt, the empty. Fine then, I'll take it, the tree seems to say, a new slick leaf unfurling like a fist to an open palm, I'll take it all."

anyone else feel like this thing has been crazy close to midnight the entire time youve been sentient, so moving it gives you no emotional response

Here’s the deal, they captured my face standing outside of my kid’s preschool in a high-viz vest. The database is going to be so big it’ll be useless. Employers will ask why you aren’t in the database and unless you explain you were doing mutual aid, the people hiring will think you’re a bad person.

If you're wondering how reporting on Minnesota by people unfamiliar with Minnesota is going, someone located Fort Snelling as sitting at the mouth of the Mississippi River.

Ice luminaries on Lake Nokomis, which is on a flight path from MSP airport. #ICEout

It’s not over.

Hoo boy this article is good. As one of ana’s chauffeurs on a boring commute this captures it perfectly

My report from Minneapolis, about the things you'll never see. newrepublic.com/article/2057...

Lake Nokomis tonight #community

more people are still mobilizing. train them up so you can recharge and we can sustain long term. this is the new world. the future is arriving now. let’s go.

Until every taqueria is open and partying without fear of ICE, I'm not letting off the gas

dream bigger. ask for more. take more space back. reduce your dependence on consumerism and the state. take care of each other.

the power holders see what’s happening and trying to make symbolic concessions to divert destabilizing energy. the time to push harder is now.

No, no we're well aware our house is still on fire.

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

they will never break minneapolis’ spirit. this is why we will win brass solidarity band brought the resistance and joy from george floyd square to whittier tonight

Thought I was doing pretty good and all, but just realized I haven’t once logged in to my stupid play money movie stock trading game FOR THREE DAYS. If you needed a metric for “Is Mateo out of sorts?” This would be it, people. Soup aside: send help!

Random drama

Need this on Touchtunes ASAP

They are rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic thinking it'll fix the hole caused by the iceberg. But we are the iceberg.

Like the hash browns situation, it might be the stress talking, but this very well could be one of the best chicken noodle soups I've ever made.

BREAKING: Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino has been carried away by a small Minnesota owl, reportedly used to patch tiny hole in nest

And then walked by this awesome sign

Defund the police had to walk so Defund ICE could run so Defund the police can sprint

we are going through it!

"ICE OUT" on Lake Nokomis in Minneapolis, as seen from my flight leaving MSP airport

Stopping at the gas station just to clean my windows so these assholes clearly see my indignant middle finger.

What *is* the collective noun for a group of ICE agents? “Murder” seems insulting to crows. “A homicide of ICE agents”? “A criminal negligence of ICE agents”?

listen, we are going to do BEAUTY and we're going to do it TOGETHER and we are NOT leaving anyone behind and it's going to take real work and we are going to get tired but the end (there is no end) will be more life and more beauty and more of everyone and we are going to do it

#SouthMinneapolisAlleys #MPLSDérive MELT ICE

I don't know that there are words enough to express how much I am looking forward to, come March, the catharsis of anger-singing the whole of "Lifes Rich Pageant" along with 1500 other inexpressibly tired and fed-up Minnesotans.
