Cedar Lake Trail ribbon cutting tomorrow. Sir Lines-A-Lot out striping the trail with an excellent business name

I got to be the literal first person to use this lane last weekend *right after it dried* 😍 It's SO GOOD and deserves more attention!

The Sargent at Arms blocks Representative Justin Pearson from Memphis from entering a committee meeting about redrawing the map specifically for the district he represents.

I just stumbled upon this amazing sale and... is there any good reason why I SHOULDN'T order this cargo bike right now?! Sounds like the Fetch+4 is getting discontinued, but I can't imagine that's through any fault of the bike itself. The specs are so good! I need a cargo bike for my new dog!

Bicycles locked to every fixed object in Powderhorn Park

Why would anyone drive to Phillips/Powderhorn for May Day

Updated chrisdaniel.net/gridlinks/ to add the Walnut St pedestrian bridge closure (MnDOT call it "the pedestrian/bicycle bridge south of Kellogg Boulevard in St. Paul" and don't have a direct link for the project) www.dot.state.mn.us/roadwork/ind...

Activist Guido Reichstadter, in Washington DC, shut down the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge to protest the US-led aggression against Iran. He has called for “mass nonviolent direct action” to dismantle the current administration’s war efforts.

The old ways are still quietly working fine.

America isn’t just losing the Iran war, we’re losing it fractally. A fractal looks the same no matter how far you zoom in or out. So does the War in Iran Here's an important yet often overlooked branch of this Mandelbrot Disaster: Trump's decision to alienate Oman 🧵

Tonight I packed up my little server room, and will be leaving this behind. Now I get to build the next iteration …

One major thing that sold me on the Dutch bicycle design was the upright ergonomics. No back pain, no wrist pain, just upright, face forward riding that let me take in the world ahead without the hunched over strain.

According to my American Evangelical Christian upbringing: if you are being persecuted and threatened, you are doing it right. The worse things get, the closer we are to Jesus’ second coming, when everything will be magically solved. I can’t emphasize enough how dangerous this cult mindset is.

Sal Mercagliano talking naval logistics. So many folks focus on the "tip of the spear" -- especially those in US civilian leadership, since all they seem to think of is optics -- but it's important to remember there a whole 95-99% of a spear behind that tip. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tsDv...

Of course they are concentration camps. And @anatosaurus.bsky.social is right that once you accept the euphemism you are halfway to normalizing the thing.

Tim Walz on DHS officers who shot Minnesotans: "We're gonna bring them back and hold them accountable for what they did"

EVs aren't here to save the planet. They're here to save the auto industry.

No PERSON shall be deprived of LIBERTY without DUE PROCESS of the LAW. That's what the Constitution says. => Detention without due process is illegal, no matter the location.

NEWS — DHS wants a detention system bigger than all of federal prisons combined. A nationwide rapid-response network just launched with two words: “GTFO, ICE.” GTFOice.org

As a Commissioner on the Minneapolis Charter Commission, I want to explain clearly why I cannot support the proposed charter amendment as written. This comes down to structure, process, and public trust. ⬇️ 1/

Green Line trains replaced by buses from 7 p.m. Fri, April 24 through Mon, April 27 due to track repairs. Blue Line runs at shared downtown Minneapolis stations. Train service resumes by 4 a.m. Monday. Details: www.metrotransit.org/buses-will-r...

Never have I ever … gotten my fare checked *twice* on a single transit ride. Until now — riding the Green Line from Western to downtown MPLS. I guess @metrotransitmn.bsky.social are serious about improving conditions. Next can we improve signal priority for Green Line trains? Pretty please?🙏

These are the types of raised/tabled crossings that I want US cities to start building. They're continuous for people walking and biking instead of continuous for drivers (even if they're raised up).

High-end bicycle manufacturer Riese & Müller withdrawing from US market: cyclingindustry.news/riese-muller... Citing “the persistently challenging and increasingly volatile market conditions in the United States” -- i.e., tariffs. Existing dealers will still have access to parts. Thanks, Obama!

The most popular page on Clearview AI's website is probably the "delete me" page www.clearview.ai/privacy-and-... Minnesota residents, among others, may request that their data be deleted.

lmao completely delusional shit as usual from the people who never go outside and drive everywhere

FYI looks like basically my whole homelab is offline right now just after I left town for a bit (channeling some @why.bsky.team energy with this one), so the stats site and feeds and such will be unavailable until I get back in a few weeks. Nothing I can do about it remotely atm. Sorry folks!

Today is day 132 of the ICE occupation of MN. Zeteo just released a short documentary about the current moment- we love to see media return for a follow up now that Minnesota isn’t in the headlines.

It would be a pleasant surprise if the American political party system could pull off such a feat of agility.

Damn nice day. Hold on to your hat, though. 🤠

went to check out the techno rave outside Parliament and I don't think I have the data allowance to share a video from it but let me tell you: there sure is a techno rave outside Parliament right now, celebrating Orban getting ousted

so it looks like this spread across the country now with dicks flying in Portland, LA and Chicago and some influencers flew in to Minneapolis to cover more dildos at whipple today?

Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

One of the Artemis astronauts stood up immediately after splashdown and started collecting his carryon bags even though he was seated in the back row of the capsule.

Minneapolis City Council discussion from morning of April 9 on adult bathhouses and sex venues ordinance changes: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwMH... A clear split between the "why do we need to change the status quo, what is this?" crowd and the council members who want to do work to improve reality.

we need to get enough solid wins that members of the DFL caucuses can be pushed to be brave. we need to win back the house by a big enough margin that they can tell Klob to kick rocks.

Would you believe it? He stopped ANOTHER war!
