Related - I had to do a plate check via Defrosty yesterday because a late model Hyundai had limo tint all around, including the windshield. Came up negative.

An absolutely perfect album, as are the subsequent two Talk Talk releases, and is Mark Hollis’ sole solo album - a capstone to his legacy.

Holy crap, these are absolutely gorgeous. Can’t wait to spin ‘em this evening and see if they’re as great as the Discogs reviews say they are.

Yep. It’s times like these when my automotive autism is a blessing and not a curse.

Funny that the three California cities I lived in don’t have Spanish-derived names: Carlsbad (German), Petaluma (Miwok), Sebastopol (Crimean).

And I have loved the music of Cocteau Twins for decades.

Heroes.

“Winters Salzetta O’Brien & Richardson, LLC, a law firm in Chicago, Illinois, won a $900,000 settlement against Budd Company… after a 17-year-old was killed attempting to mount a 16-inch tire onto a 16.5-inch wheel.” My dad was a juror in this case - I remember that it really shook him.

Need a bike? This is about 20% of Chicago’s Working Bikes’ basement collection. Mostly Schwinn and Raleigh ten speeds, stacked two high. Destined to be donated, shipped overseas.

A friend who owns a bike shop (Bedlam Bikes, Benton Harbor, MI) had these fun challenge coins made.

I LOVE this guy!!!! I hope he's wearing a bullet proof vest - cause those are some serious zingers and ICE has thin skin. "Put away your weapons. Nobody's threatening you, you pathetic babies!"

Avanti!* *reproduction

As if anyone actually walks in Schaumburg, IL.

Did I ever mention that we got stickers and that $1 from each sale goes towards the Immigrant Law Center of MN? Shirts are going out this week! #abolishice

It’s February 4th in England already … so it was 40 years ago today that the Replacements from Minneapolis, Minnesota played “Kiss Me on the Bus” on “The Old Grey Whistle Test” @mplsmusichistory.bsky.social youtu.be/B8-1iSqJnQc

Absolutely floored at the turnout for this afternoon’s Alex Pretti Unity Ride. Guessing 3000 or so riders in Minneapolis, in 15° temps.

My brother bought a couple of Camp Snap 8 video cameras for the film/video department of the art school that he works for. Pretty neat, and seemingly worth the $200 price.

This summer’s hottest jams? analtrump.bandcamp.com/album/fuckin...

Remember: Alex Pretti was a cyclist. This is simply the appropriate reaction to a gigantic SUV bring driven recklessly.

The @bikepackingcom.bsky.social folks put together a map of all the Alex Pretti memorial rides happening this weekend. Find one near you! @bikesky.social

Chrysler TC by Maserati!

Woo-hoo, a little victory for meeeeee.

On Saturday we ride for Alex Pretti 1:00pm at Washburn Fair Oaks Park From Angry Catfish: “We're asking folks to host rides and come together. Bike shops and non-profits, cycling orgs and alt cycling collectives, city and rural. We are many but we stand together as one.”

Ooh, tonight’s hotel has an in-room CD player!

The oh-so-awesome @perennialcycle.bsky.social ‘s workshop has been turned into a print shop this afternoon, screening Abolish Ice art onto the apparel, bags, etc that folks are bringing in. Lots of food and cash donations are rolling in as well.

There is a video out this morning showing ICE agents wrestling a man onto the ground in Minneapolis and then shooting him. I counted twelve shots. It looks like two ICE agents fired at the man. He was wrestled to the ground and beaten by approximately 6 ICE agents before being shot.

That’s literally my former, western Sonoma County, winter attire.

The spawn’s sign.

In solidarity with today's ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA blackout, MinnMax is donating $1 to the Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota for every share of this Bluesky post for the next hour.

It warmed up a couple of degrees since the sun rose. It’s now -20°. Time to vaporize some boiling water.

Also happening Sunday at @perennialcycle.bsky.social

Neighborhood watch is taking on a new form in Minneapolis and other cities under occupation by federal immigration agents: ICE Watch. These folks, who're tailing federal agents as they make arrests, are passionate, determined, and just about everywhere—and ICE is getting frustrated.

First time in 39 years of home ownership where I’ve planted a sign in my yard.

Heck yeah, @mischieftoy.com !

From the spawn: "We have a lower low temp on Friday than Norilsk and same as Yakutsk. These are the northernmost and coldest cities in the world, respectively. And the only two large cities built on continuous permafrost. Welcome to Siberia.”

Saw this about 90 min ago. Not shown - the MNDOT plows positioned on 35W ≈100’ shy of some key exits, like Washington. Ready to shut the ramps down if needed.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.
