It is one of the great tragedies of our time that in order to be meaningfully chronically online, you have to deal with so many people who are organizing grifts. Thank you to everyone on the ground in Minnesota for protesting ICE; like grifting, it is an essential part of fighting for democracy.

I love our little group chat

I’m finally actually getting somewhere with my nerd nite talk! Goal is to finish the script and have rough slides by Monday night so I can do a practice run.

Oh so this is why he keeps calling the DFL the Democratic party of MN instead of the Democratic-Farmer-Labor party

“You have no idea who I am” — Simon Rosenberg But the man sure can lob a completely unwarranted ad hominem attack

Can’t sleep because I have too much adrenaline and dopamine from watching a grown-ass professional grifter throw a public hissy fit when people called him out

If you aren’t living in Minnesota right now but want to help, the first thing you need to do is shut the fuck up and the second thing is listen. If it’s too hard for you to do two things, then just shutting the fuck up will suffice.

Simon Rosenberg, like so much of the Democratic consultant class, made his fortune driving the party into the ditch we find ourselves in now. People like him will abuse their power to prevent any kind of accountability for their actions—even to the point of trying to erase their own history.

Again, I do not rate pieces of shit.

Just caught up on the whole Russian bot thing and hoo boy imagine having to wake up everyday with your head as far up your own ass as @simonwdc.bsky.social has his

Regular Saturday morning routine: I need to do things, but kitty.

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.

Seems unfair that you only get to use the bouncy slide to get off a plane when things have gone wrong. The bouncy slide should be a treat they give to the best passengers who did the flight correctly.

Last night I went to a cocktail bar and ordered what I thought was a cocktail Turns out it was the best jello shot ever. Anyway, highly recommend Crowbar.

For those who are hedging right now on whether ICE should exist or not— the question of what would you do in 1930s Nazi Germany is here and you have a chance to answer. This is not who we are as a nation, our beloved communities deserve better.

Not surprised, but I am disappointed.

So today I made the mistake of opening a social media app that wasn’t Bsky. Maybe someday I will learn.

Okay I think I’ve probably exceeded my morning shitposting quota so now I’m going to make a London fog and do my puzzle

(Stole this from someone in my neighborhood Facebook group)

Hey @governorwalz.mn.gov, @mayorjacobfrey.bsky.social, @amyklobuchar.com, et al Next time you want to make a condescending statement to your constituents who are out here protecting your other constituents, instead try thanking them for doing your jobs & remaining peaceful despite the atrocities

Local guy tremendously impressed that the Smitten Kitten is doing all of this amazing mutual aid work but also now skeptical about earlier claims that they don’t have the capacity to run a gloryhole.

Now that I’m all fired up from my morning sky scrolling, gonna go fuck some shit up* *leisurely shop during the Costco exec member hour

calling the office of Amy Klobuchar and leaving a voicemail of me just screaming

The Strib sucks. Give to @racketmn.com instead!

Can someone teach our elected officials the following things 1. Don’t take screenshots of text on a desktop 2. Stop posting screenshots of your posts from other apps. If it’s too long for one post, make a thread! 3. I know you’re not going to do 1 & 2 so for the love of god USE ALT TEXT

So are we paying taxes this year or nah

Today on Reddit: your protest inconveniences me because of my unwillingness to follow license plate laws so you are actually the problem

I don’t trust people who set their electric blankets to any temperature other than High.

Can someone come fill the cats’ water fountain? The motor noise is driving Colin and me crazy but the cats are on our laps so obviously we can’t be the ones to fill it

Nevertheless Amy K persists at doing the absolute least

Highly recommend adding these @decemberists.bsky.social songs into your regular rotation. youtu.be/67Ud_vzYaQw

YESSSS PEGGY

These Costco puzzles have a glossy finish that is basically incompatible with the lighting in my house. I was just so annoyed about it that I went and did the dishes. Who even am I???

I don’t love that ICE has turned bsky into my doom scrolling app instead of my precious little snowflake safe space app. I’m going to go channel my feelings into the 4-pack of 1,000 piece puzzles I got on clearance at Costco.

Donald Trump is going to declare war on my state so all bets are off and that means I can eat leftover Mississippi pot roast for breakfast and you can’t say a fucking word about it

Hang this in the louvre.

Why the fuck even are men

What in the copaganda fuck even is this statement

It’s been over a year since I left my last job. They still haven’t replaced me. After their 6+ month attempt to hire someone, they gave up for a while. But now they’re hiring for a slightly different position and the job description is 90% my ideas that the CEO shot down 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

My partner @jasoncapsaicin.bsky.social made a step by step guide on how to break up ice in your neighborhood in Minnesota. Enjoy!

Went to check on some things for our upcoming lobby day and caught the Capitol right at sunset. 📷 Nikon D800 / Nikkor 50mm 1.4

This is probably my favorite post-Walla era Death Cab song.

A few months ago, ICE hired me I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!" My latest for Slate

But one of my friends said that there are just some bad apples in ICE and another said everything’s fine cause compared to Waco this is nothing

I have never felt more seen

Well I got like an hour

WHY IS EVERYTHING IN ILLUSTRATOR 2026 BROKEN

3D PRINTED VUVUZELAS. Minnesota, you know what to do www.printables.com/model/441398...

I posted about vuvuzelas before @lookitup.baby did, but they’re getting all the attention for it simply because they are way cooler and way more popular than me 😄

The audacity of Instagram to tell me I have a notification but actually it just really needed me to know—at 12:51 AM—that Minnesota Memes is using Meta AI
