Wemby gets away with so, so many fouls.

No such thing as too many Mayday photos, right? 20 years on and I still can't enough of this parade. This year just felt extra cathartic. #Mayday #Minneapolis

Minneapolis celebrates spring with a parade of giant handmade socialist puppets and a festival where people row the sun across the lake. This year's Mayday festival was today, and I'm going to try to share some photos and videos (many taken by others) to try to explain it for my non-local friends.

Oh, man. Mayday this weekend and Doors Open next! Peak Minneapolis.

Happy May Day! I fucking love it here

Unfazable Minneapolis

People who are talking about young people needing to learn AI because they’ll get left behind have it exactly opposite. People need to figure out how to navigate the world expertly without AI so that then AI becomes a really helpful tool.

You can see the Minneapolis Mayday Parade this Sunday! It's so great. www.maydaympls.org

Jaden turned himself into prime Scottie Pippen and I am HERE FOR IT!!

You know what would be amazing?

The upcoming investments in low-stress bikeways in Minneapolis are so, so impressive. go.minneapolismn.gov/final-plan/b...

This is an indictment of the Denver Nuggets.

They’re all playing like Gorilla balls because they wore Donte jerseys and saw him during practice.

That carousel image view was so much better. Yet, here we are back to the grid less than a week later.

We've got to close the HERC, they say. Meanwhile in Japan they separate their trash into burnable and plastics.

I can't believe this. @normcharlatan.bsky.social you're a Minnesota Legend, my man.

Escalante Petrified Forest State Park. Come for the fossils. Stay for the view, I suppose. #rockintuesday #bluetue #stateparks #utah #landscape #hiking #photogaphersofbluesky

They may be mourning the Lowry, but I’m still in my feelings about the Hollywood Video. Where can a guy even rent a DVD these days?

welcome to green bay DDS 😤🔥🧀

Does Roper know we already have the nice riverfront over here?

Jaden McDaniels vs bad defenders

Not sure which of the Utah Mighty 5 was our favorite, but Bryce Canyon made a good case. Hoodoos for days. Make sure to click on through to view these tallboys. #Utah #NationalParks #BryceCanyon #Scape #photography

The region is called the Driftless because glaciers missed this corner of the Midwest during the Ice Age. It offers a rare glimpse into what the region looked like before much of it was smoothed over by glaciation. Here's Great River Bluffs State Park, about 40 minutes northeast of Beaver Creek.

Canyonlands National Park was unreal. The La Sal Mountains off in the distance somehow grounded the view from Buck Canyon Overlook. April 2026 #mountainmonday #nationalpark #canyonlands #utah

If you ever install real beadboard and follow the instructions about sealing it first, use a folded over piece of 60 grit sandpaper and clean out the groove before installing each strip. It’ll make the whole process much, much quicker.

Beaver Creek Valley is the unsung hero of Minnesota State Parks. www.mnisforlovers.com/2021/05/beav... #forestfriday

The fight for the Boundary Waters isn’t over, it just looks a little different now. We will not give up. That would play right into their hands.

I maintain that Las Vegas is dumb. And beautiful. And more than a bit shoddy. But it's kind of fun. #architecture #lasvegas

Twin Cities bike friends: does anyone happen to have this silver adaptor for a Weehoo bike trailer and no longer need it? A Minneapolis Public Schools teacher friend who does bike education needs one!

Why would you do that when you could cover up a desert habitat?

Looks like Minneapolis is running away with the city of the decade for the 2020s over on Reddit. Wish it was because we’re a cool place, but I suppose standing up to injustice ain’t bad. www.reddit.com/r/decadeolog...

All MLB teams in the style of Mr. Met.

I see that the creeping bellflowers have emerged to torment me once again.

Somehow we'd never been to either of the big Hmong markets over in St. Paul. Corrected for half of that, at least. It's kind of cool having two distinct big cites sitting shoulder to shoulder.

Here's an exercise for the class: Let's put these two pieces of testimony together and see if we can't explain the former with the latter.

Suburbanites aren't staying away from downtown Minneapolis because of crime, they're doing it because of Netflix. They go out once a month instead of twice a week and every other force is downstream from that.

Dumbest timeline. Looking for the puniest possible blame — bike lanes? — to justify your priors instead of gigantic societal factors. Nicollet Mall has been in decline since the Megamall if not before (our mistake was thinking subsidies would bring retail back). COVID hollowed out the offices.

Lotza Mozza is like 6 bucks right now at Menards. If that’s your thing. Now back to ripping out the rusting tin ceiling in our bathroom.
