update i attempted to post this take on tiktok and got flooded with people telling me what churches should do and how much money they all have because they're tax exempt and we are cooked you guys

reminiscent of my first time playing a game and I sat in a chair wrong and died.

I picked mine up yesterday!

We placed 7th in the Trivia Mafia Regionals today, which means we just missed making it to the finals! A top ten showing out of 25 teams is already pretty great, so congrats to Dex's Trivia Runners!

@ericroper.bsky.social brushing over the role media played in propping up Frey. Where was the media condemnation of the deeply racist snake oil attack ads on Robin or the AOM flyers that darkened Fateh's skin? Why did no one care about Frey deleting his texts and voicemails when ICE was in town?

This is the take.

i'm white but i'm not "misunderstanding what they not like us means" white

Panera’s moderately caffeinated lemonade was loosely associated with 2 deaths before it was taken off market. This article alone has 4 examples of ChatGPT encouraging young people to commit suicide, and OpenAI’s own public stats estimate over a million users discuss suicide with ChatGPT each week.

frey's bros are some of the most toxic people i've encountered online and seem to be emblematic of the culture Frey cultivates

i'm back to making broccoli and cauliflower over rice every day for a late lunch and this is why i buy frozen because a month ago i couldn't stand to look at another floret of broccoli.

I can’t believe Zohran is transing the trains already www.mta.info/article/f-m-...

imagine living a life so petty that you're complaining about a bench in a park

Has Speaker Johnson, who prides himself on starting the Civility Caucus, commented on a member being verbally harassed and berated like this?

the way she keeps telling herself she's a good mom while one of her adult daughters failed out of college because she was doing the back up work of taking care of these babies

Aaron's choice of outfit for the finale of GBBO is just pitch perfect. I love it so much.

holy shit????

If you are a parent of a kid in Minneapolis public schools, please, please, PLEASE take 2 minutes to email the school board ([email protected]) and superintendent ([email protected]) to tell them to settle with the educators' union and give them what they want. Your emails truly help!

i also think non-profit salaries need to be much higher but a lot of the narrative amongst older, white, wealthy donors is that only a small amount should go to overhead and salaries and everything else toward "doing the work" but like...come on.

100%. The entire system around politician compensation needs reform, which is not going to happen with the current politicians support by that system.

This is one of those completely baffling things to me. It's not "part time" if half the year, you're working 16 hour days.

This is the big thing! It's actually really bad that congressional salaries are just $174,000 for the demands on their time and the amounts of travel they have to do. The mayor of Minneapolis makes $140,000. State legislators in MN make 51,000, significantly below market for the metro.

oh so this is just McCarthyism.

Minerva has started just cooperating for me to take her meds every day and it’s like she knows they help her feel good.

as a millennial who graduated college in 2008: please can we stop

Woke up with the Sinners soundtrack in my head: youtu.be/3eL-XNmcuLQ?... If this doesn't win an Oscar, they're broken.

I will never stop dying on the hill that so much of this would have been avoided if the response to Obama is a muslim had been "so fucking what" instead of the utterly dungbrained "OH YEAH EXPLAIN HOW HE LIKES BACON AND BEER THEN" nonsense that we were force fed for 8 years

both cats have the zoomies oh no

Look I get publishing a broad spectrum of opinions but I already fed them this morning

Not me discovering that Stray is on sale on the switch at nearly 10pm

*cough* minneapolis *cough*

for those who don't know what "hoisin sauced myself" means: youtube.com/shorts/wdOli...

i just hoisin sauced myself on toothpaste from costco. Was in line and thought "huh, that's a decent deal, let's grab the five pack." Got home to discover I already had two packs of toothpaste in the closet so now i'm good for literally a year.

this week's taskmaster has the quote "i don't think you necessarily needed to contemplate a hate crime" and god this show is so good

succubus - female demon that seduces men incubus - male demon that seduces women vengabus - non-binary demon that likes to party

That "historical fact" says absolutely nothing about who I am now or how I might present, nor does it creates a compelling interest for the state to regulate this in such a way. It's horseshit, plain and simple.

also me and my inbox after noon on a friday

he’s doing pilates

well i can't leave the country

sandwich guy acquited!

too bad it's a daughter because she could say "this is me son, altima"

one of the weird threads i keep seeing in my ward specifically is this narrative that Aisha isn't responsive to people in her ward, but they are never specific about what they're trying to reach Aisha *about*. And that's really telling! if you're just emailing to yell at her, why?

It's almost like the aggressive attack on trans people was just a pretext for rolling back any kind of gender equality whatsoever

THIS IS THE THING Your sense of safety being threatened *has all happened under Frey*. More of the same is not going to change that. My god.

I am never not gonna be mad about the Minneapolis public not connecting Frey to complete control of MPD operations for the past 8 years. www.startribune.com/election-day...

yeah this is accurate. when i was younger they were called Blue Dog Democrats for some reason.

just discovered that Scott Graham literally only comes onto bluesky when he wants to yell at leftists, which seems to be the case with a lot of the Frey-aligned centrists The Nazi Bar getting too quiet for you? You won. Go celebrate that.

this is what i'm talking about. his vols are all gonna be the old lady centrists. this is what i mean by *turnout* engine. we *get out the vote*. And you need that if you're gonna outweigh the suburban republicans.

fucking finallly

guys I’m sorry but have you looked through Getty images for yesterday 💀
