"This one neat, timesaver trick from the 1900s..." 👵

Many workers have missed shifts without jobs being destroyed making it challenging to measure labor impacts with conventional sources. We use real-time daily data from Homebase to measure impacts. Thanks to UChicago and Homebase for making the data available. #EconSky #NumbersDay

The Gen X urge to relax and not do it

SORKIN: Kash went after Wray, saying he 'doesn't need a govt-funded plane to go on vacation. Maybe we ground it.' What's your view on his use of it? TED CRUZ: I'm a big fan of Kash Patel. The FBI had an important job at the Olympics. I would've loved to be in that locker room. Kash, congratulations

I made ☝️this a #twitterpoll, at the other place... #Klobuchar came 4th place among these options.

A MN protester accused of assaulting ICE officer had case dropped after vids showed no assault. LA protester accused of assaulting ICE w/ “hat” had case dropped; judge said govt acted in “bad faith” In Chicago, 92 ppl were arrested for assault/impeding ICE; 0 convicted DOJ keeps lying and losing:

Worst kind of local TV segment is where they politely talk around the edges of federal govt bad faith, as if a large scale violent crackdown arises from miscommunication between levels of govt. I will award a local Emmy to anyone willing to say this is not a series of oopsies. It's on purpose.

The Gen X urge to be runnin' up that road, be runnin' up that hill, be runnin' up that building

Minnesota residents and lawmakers say the promised drawdown has not materialized, and they are seeing ICE use more covert tactics to continue operations across Twin Cities suburbs. By @ncsscibelli.bsky.social

The discovery that ICE began using Subarus shook me to my core. My culture is not a costume

I do Ok at selling stuff on FB Marketplace... but we'll see. www.facebook.com/marketplace/... #seriousinquiriesonly

In 2025, only about 59% of Americans gave high ratings when asked to evaluate how good their life will be in about five years, the lowest annual measure since Gallup began asking this question almost 20 years ago. https://to.pbs.org/3MxuWJg

“They were hellbent on not allowing anybody to help him until he was dead,” she said. “I was right there, and they — all of them — made the decision to deny me access to give him the best possible chance of survival.”

What will really blow your mind: by lunchtime today, it'll be 40° in #Mpls. ☀️ #meltice

What the hell are we doing here? What possible benefit is this to the economy? Immigrants start new businesses in much higher proportions! www.startribune.com/sba-minnesot...

DHS lies nonstop

Uhhhhh i don't WANT to spend MORE on healthcare.

Fundamentally, Republicans want Americans to die. That’s the message from blocking new lifesaving vaccines. That’s the message from gutting FEMA. That’s the message from their street goons gunning people down. Republicans hate Americans and want us dead.

Egregious, mass scale violation of Constitutional rights. 1A, 2A, 4A, 5A, 14A. Magats: "yes, we voted for that." 🐍

I made a chart of Minnesota federal lawsuits with captions of “v. [Bondi/Noem/Easterwood/Lyons/Trump]” over the last three months. Almost all of these are immigration habeas corpus cases.

Report: Less Than 14% Of Those Arrested By ICE Had Criminal Record https://theonion.com/report-less-than-14-of-those-arrested-by-ice-had-criminal-record/

Every photo from Minneapolis looks like this. Cops decked out with guns and full tac gear facing off against people in bathrobes, parkas, and sweatpants armed only with whistles and cell phones. Yet every verified MAGA chode on X dutifully calls it a riot or violent insurrection.

"Debaser" by Pixies Album: "Doolittle" Time: 07:10 am

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

Fun thought exercise: who would you prefer to see as #MN's next Governor? 😵 🗳 Sen. Amy #Klob? 🗳 former Sen. Al Franken 🗳 former Gov. Jesse Ventura 🗳 surprise Walz re-boot!

If you’ve been vaguely worried but unsure how to talk about the kidnappings happening all around us, this might help.

lol stay mad

Galactic brain @kstptv.bsky.social headline tries to blame "pedestrian" for this... and, WTH, maybe implicate a LRT transit angle??? #waroncars But the reader comments are NOT HAVING IT ✋️ NOT TODAY #KSTP!

Brett Favre is a fucking moron. He said he's "going to stick to what he knows", which is Kid Rock and Lee Brice (whoever the fuck that is). What an idiot. If he stuck to what he knew, he'd be stealing money from needy families while holding a football.🖕

My favorite winter event in Minneapolis was tonight! Thousands of illuminated ice sculptures on Lake of the Isles. It’s pure magic.

Stop having liars on national political talk shows. Why is this so hard??

It doesn’t get any more disgusting than this.

In an interview last week, Joe Scarborough said he was surprised at how SCOTUS had ruled in favor of Trump, e.g. immunity. How clueless can one be, not to have paid attention to who was being appointed during Trump 1.0? Pretty clueless.
