HOLY SHIT

good timing, flipping from Twins-Tigers to Knicks-Spurs

☀️awoooooooooo☀️

I am extremely proud these four people represent us.

semi-serious, semi-silly question: where is the Twin Cities going to keep the Profile in Courage award?

Check out Ronny Chieng’s Harvard speech.

do NOT do this ffs

Every time people cite construction as a reason for small businesses closing in Uptown, I think about how the Minneapolis City Council funded a $900,000 construction hardship program that Mayor Frey did not implement.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ This would have been support for small businesses in Uptown.

nobody who capitulates to the circus in DC gets anything good in return

Watching a series of former Confederate states rush to eliminate any vestige of black representation in the House pretty much answers the question whether the Voting Rights Act was still necessary.

#AcademicSky, Over on the professor subreddit, someone has suggested we recap the 2026 school year with #haiku. I love #poetry and words, so I'm all for it- Bewildered students Faculty sigh, faces to palms Admin plans more cuts

whyyyyyyy the fuck would you hack Canvas? leave academia alone, we have enough problems as it is!

If we’re gonna do AI education in school, the only appropriate thing to talk about is how damaging it is to our critical thinking abilities. How its answers are wrong or flat out imagined. We should teach the concepts of probability and correlation. And a militant focus on literacy in general.

John Lewis had John Roberts' number from the jump: takebackthecourt.substack.com/p/john-lewis...

KILL THE PESSIMISTIC MINNESOTA SPORTS FAN THAT LIVES IN YOUR HEAD

Had Hillary won, and gotten to pick 2-3 SCOTUS justices, you’d be living in a different country. Roe and the VRA would be intact. Citizens United would be gone. Political gerrymanders would be unconstitutional. Racial ones wouldn’t. Trans people would have a constitutional right to use the can.

I don't want a motherfucking ballroom, especially since I'll never be invited to use it, and neither will 98% of US citizens. I want USAID. And NIH. And NSB. And NASA. I want free breakfast and lunch for school kids. I want healthcare for all.

Film you’ve watched more than six times with a gif Hard mode: no Star Trek, Star Wars, Marvel, classic Disney, etc.

arrests?! my friends and I used to do this in suburban hotels when we were in high school in the late 80s and I'm not even sure we were ever asked to leave

Pisces: Your eyes go black and birds fall out of the sky as you smile for the first time in centuries. All is transpiring according to prophecy.

all good vibes #DeVotchKa #FirstAve

Bluesky is the website with the highest number of Jeopardy! contestant profile pics per capita

I’m glued to the Artemis coverage because it is so unlike anything we get to see in the news these days: cool shit done by smart, super competent people working together closely. Positive vibes but not treacly sentiment. Also (probably) a glowing alien god of peace about to emerge from the capsule.

IT'S GREAT TO BE A MICHIGAN WOLVERINE

ok heart rate, you can come down now 💛💙GO BLUE💙💛

Y'all there is a woman and a black man circling the moon and NASA's mission control+ science teams are so diverse and people are nerding out about science and exploration this is all a gigantic middle finger to the stupid and hate and grotesque ghouls running our country

moon joy! 🌚

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

🥗 Imagine cutting $1.4B from WIC and then claiming you care about kids’ nutrition. Their hypocrisy reeks. MAHA is a scam. Always was.

People tend to die in concentration camps.

I went to school with the Fab Five and I agree that this is a whole lot of fun, especially with both the men and women making the Elite Eight 💛💙

1. Twins 2. Tigers

Elizabeth Banks

The question that broke America fundamentally was ‘do all people deserve basic rights?’ This question was too hard for us. Too hard for our leadership. It still is. So now all of our rights are in jeopardy.

Mustang Sally or Mack the Knife

did this come out of one of those “you can only react by saying positive things!” exercises?

this was the congregation I grew up in, I had my bat mitzvah here and my parents were married at the former location in Detroit 💔

hey! fun stuff if you're into DCC RPG!

I don’t think Trump and his people are capable of engineering “distractions,” I think the mind-numbing chaos we see every day is straightforwardly the result of giving the dumbest, cruelest, most corrupt, most selfish people of a generation near-unmitigated power

If it’s true that the United States bombed an elementary school and killed scores of children it is an unfathomable crime. I have never been more disgusted to be an American.

I'm hearing reports that the elderly despotic leader is now afraid to reenter the capital and is attempting to establish a functioning government in a gilded palace located in a remote southern part of the country.

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

Shame on the USA Men's hockey team for allowing themselves to be used as political props by a fascist, narcissistic sociopath who is also a child rapist.

party of fiscal responsibility, huh

Life advice: - be kind to service workers & tip well - don't curse the moon, because it can hear you - learn enough black magic to cause some gentle mischief - be the mossy forest horror you want to see in the world

You won’t find cleaner waters than the Boundary Waters. Think endless streams of water filled with bass, walleye, trout and northern pike – total wilderness, only accessible by canoe. Why would we let a Chilean mining company pollute these public lands, take our minerals and ship them off to China?

Dr. Michael T. Osterholm, an infectious disease expert at the University of Minnesota, called the arrangement “a recipe for disaster.” Given the deep cuts at the C.D.C., he said, “I think the C.D.C. is one disaster away from being a disaster itself.”

Rev. Jesse Jackson's "I *am* somebody..." remains one of the all-time great pieces of 20th century rhetoric / agitprop And he could deliver it at a Black separatist meeting, the Democratic National Convention, or on god-blessed Sesame Street (see below 🥹) RIP to the Voice of the Voiceless
