Now that they are building an Aldi in downtown St Paul, we can set our sights high. In 2027, we're turning the Midway Shopping plaza into a Lotte World

Formal invitation to the hockey team sent,,, if any people with connections to the hockey team wanna have them email my team my bio. I’m for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

Last year I suggested that @mnufc.com do a light show instead of fireworks for many reasons. Tonight, I saw a great light show, brightening up a snowy day. It was a lot of fun! Thank you!

Just logged in to listen as my soundtrack to watching the Olympics on mute. Looking forward to hearing the album.

I miss when you could post Brave Norman Rockwell Townsperson and the caption could be, like, “R.E.M was wrong to leave ‘Fretless’ off of Out of Time” instead of “The secret police should stop murdering people.”

US Olympic Curling Team member speaks out against ICE: "I'm proud to represent Team USA. But we'd be remiss if we didn't mention what's going on in Minnesota and what a tough time it's been. What's happening is wrong. There's no shades of gray."

Gun Owners of America is lobbying Congress to pass the SAVE Act, which would require a majority of Americans to show a passport to register to vote. But GOA opposes any law that requires showing a drivers license to buy a gun. These are not serious people.

“Suicides rise following commencement of Daylight Saving Time, compared to the return to Standard Time.”

I’ve long thought it’s better to say “it’s nice to see you” than “how are you?” bc it doesn’t put ppl who‘re struggling on the spot to be cheerful But an interesting thing about how collective the trauma is in Minnesota—when you start a work mtg w “how are you?”, you often just get an honest answer

I think it's rather sad that people are describing the ICE murders as "people are being killed by their own government", as though that were somehow unusual. The majority of murders are committed by people known to the victims (relatives, neighbors, etc), but of the people killed by strangers...

As others have aptly pointed out, police forces have been murdering people for a long time, especially POC. This terrorism from ICE is only a continuation and newest version of what we have been seeing for a long time.

At this point if I was abducted by aliens 👽🛸I would consider it a rescue mission.

📒 NEW STUDY “supports abolition of Daylight Saving Time and adoption of permanent Standard Time to minimize negative consequences including migraines.”

Paige Bueckers (Dallas Wings, Breeze FC) is donating $50,000 to relief efforts organised in response to ICE raids in her hometown of Hopkins, Minnesota. On Monday Bueckers won $50,000 in the #Unrivaled free throw competition after successfully scoring 13 free throws. (Source @brwsports)

A check in a federal database or a judicial warrant would have caught that this person was already in jail. #itsnotaboutimmigrationenforcement kstp.com/kstp-news/to...

A president cannot defend a nation if he is not held accountable to its laws.

The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny by Kiran Desai is a touching novel about connection- friendship, family, romance & fleeting kindness between strangers. As it explores loneliness & the search for home, it gently reveals how we share the same longings to belong and be understood. Recommended read!

When it's below zero outside, it's nice to curl up with a book and a warm cat. 😻

Another time - after a long flight to Tokyo, our child was motion sick and ended up vomiting on the train to the hotel. Several passengers had wet wipes, bags, etc and helped us clean up.

We were in Shanghai trying to find our hotel room. Someone recognized the lost looks on our faces, called the hotel for us, found the floor it was on and walked us up to the office to make sure we got there all right.

This made me smile a lot. 🥲 www.nytimes.com/2026/01/14/w...

I really want ppl w/o Minneapolis connections to understand You might've heard that Mpls public schools went hybrid bc so many families are in hiding. Well, a coworker just told me that today, during his kid's hybrid class, a kid's apt building was raided onscreen *Everyone has stories like this*

Here’s the @mprnews.org story bsky.app/profile/mprn...

ICE THUGS arrested a pastor & kept asking him "Are you afraid?" numerous occasions. The pastor said NO. Eventually the THUGS let him go stating that "You're WHITE, you're no fun to us!!" This is how sick & deranged these THUGS are, thanks to this REGIME‼️ youtu.be/lcSOyVrc5HM?...

My heart goes out to the newly elected council members in Minneapolis who are on... Day 3 of the job and having to deal with the federal government occupying their city and killing their constituents, a subject I imagine is not covered in orientation.

I am heartbroken. Renee Nicole Good should still be alive.  I urge everyone to use caution as you express your right to protest this horrific action by federal law enforcement. These agents are unprepared for this job, and you should not put yourself in harm’s way because of their lack of training.

I am outraged by the horrific killing of a legal observer perpetrated by Donald Trump's ICE agents in South Minneapolis. Video footage shows clearly that this killing was unjustified. I demand a full investigation and this agent must be held accountable. www.npr.org/2026/01/07/n...

The government is saying that violence rules. That snatching foreign leaders and territories, and shooting US citizens in their cars at point blank range, is justified. That resistance is not only futile, it is dangerous. They can say these things. But they cannot force us to believe them.

I am impeaching Secretary Kristi Noem, who is an incompetent leader and a disgrace to our democracy. She wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area and has brought her reign of terror to Minneapolis. One of her rogue ICE agents shot and killed an innocent woman today. It must come to an end.

ICE is responsible for the *only* shooting and homicide in Minneapolis so far in 2026.

I am closely monitoring the situation in Minneapolis. My heart is broken for the victim, their family, and our community as a whole. I join Mayor Frey in demanding that ICE leave our cities immediately before they cause any further harm.

De jaarwisseling is voor mij even tijd van gezelligheid en tradities. #gronigen #spekdikken #spekdikkenbakken

Happy 2026!

It wasn't quite as big as Beyonce Bowl last year, but Snoop Dogg's Christmas half time show with Huntrx was pretty golden youtu.be/6H3xSVPthAo?...

They control all three branches of government, yet all Trump could do in his annual accomplishments speech was yell at Americans.

Ailing wannabe dictator yelling at his people and insisting that they're getting richer and safer when all the evidence demonstrates the opposite. This is Gaddafi-levels of lunacy.

There is no room for bigotry on our turf.

My 10-year-old lost her grandpa last week. She heard this song by @theeminus5.bsky.social and said Christmas just hurt her this year. There's always a song that fits- music helps us feel, remember, and heal—even in the hardest moments 💔. youtu.be/Rd3rJUKzWLM?...

On one hand, there's a lot of security theater that people do in situations that really don't call for it. On the other, if you think what you're doing is actual resistance than be serious about the steps you should and shouldn't be taking.

Yet another unique way to stimulate cellular immunity against cancer. “Using the gut immune system to induce cellular immunity is a unique approach,” Shirakawa notes. “And it should be very easy to extend it to other antigen proteins and also infectious diseases.” #ScienceSunday

Dayne is streets ahead. Saint Clair Ave is now Dayne St. Clair Ave 🫡

Important viewpoint for everyone that puts on outdoor events in winter. “Accessibility can also mean something softer, more personal: being capable of participating fully without discomfort, fear, or exhaustion. Weather affects this aspect, particularly for fans with mobility challenges.”

“If Jeanne Shaheen or Angus King, or ideally just Chuck Schumer, went to the mics and said: We have tried everything we can to make Republicans give you back your health care. They refuse to do so. The only way you’re going to get your health care back is to elect Democrats.”

Happy 빼빼로 day! 11/11

It's been a great year for playoff games. The World Series games were wild. And in ⚽ the MN United v Seattle Sounders playoff series was extremely exciting. Best part- Loons advance! #comeonyouloons

Fun list of @remhq.bsky.social top 20. Most of what I listened to in the 90s was grungy and depressing, I finally figured out why I liked Shiny Happy People - it was different! 😄 And I cannot hear Losing my Religion without thinking of my mom- she used to sing it because it was an earworm for her. ❤️
