I thought I saw Magne Furuholmen on the streets of Oslo but then I realized, no, he would not look the same today as on the poster in my teenage bedroom!!

I sorta want to see the prompt for the deranged Trump airplane king shitstorm.

Initial estimate for No Kings Twin Cities at 100,000! So many Minnesotans SHOWED UP to protect our communities, our country and our democracy that the 1+ mile march route looped back and found thousands hadn’t even left the starting point! 👏❌👑

I guess it’s ok to be glad Jimmy Kimmel is back on the air and also hate his non-stop fat jokes. Sometimes free speech is 🤮 speech.

Queer & Funny Improv Festival returns Nov 9th! www.verygoodimprov.com/queer-and-fu...

The Norweigian show “Skal vi danse?” (their “So You Think You Can Dance”) is very confusing when you don’t know one of them is a celebrity.

Those Young Republicans on the group chat weren’t kids. Tamir Rice was a kid. The Exonerated Five were kids. The girls on Epstein Island were kids.

Over 300,000 Black women have lost jobs this year In Minneapolis, Sheletta Brundidge is hosting a job fair for Black women, by Black women. This is what community looks like. When doors close, we open new ones. 💙 kstp.com/kstp-news/to...

I just watched a debate show here in Norway and it was so civil. No one was talking over, yelling, being hyperbolic. Everyone was intellectually honest and the moderator asked real questions. I feel like I haven’t seen that in many years in the USA.

Wait, did Kristi Noem arrest Mamie Eisenhower?

Ah yes, the airport, where people go to show off their hacking wet coughs.

What logical fallacy are you seeing most this week? A lot of Ad Hominem out in the world these days. www.logicalfallacies.org

I just saw a website with the question “How do you measure success” on their FAQ. I guarantee that is not a Frequently Asked Question. It might not even be an Ever Asked Question.

The great thing about being 53 is all my friends my age still think their thoughts on Taylor Swift are relevant. Do not go gentle into that good night, motherfuckers.

I don’t know you, I don’t owe you.

I just watched a little bug find the beam of sunshine on my dad’s wall and I am mentored.

My statement on the GOP shutdown.

Somebody has to find women that served with Hegseth and ask them about him.

Please come to my production of “My Fair Gravy” about a man who mentors a full gravy boat into becoming the belle of the ball.

I need a new policy. When I can’t find something that I bought for HUGE and thought I brought home, I think I will pretend we donated it to the most beautiful charity in those last sad days.

I hope I never forget how nice it was to go to the beach all summer.

People who like dark chocolate also like when they see a stranger crying on a subway. I assume.

Back on my Fallout 4 adventures. A lot of great mods I’ve never played before. Point Lookout! What a treat!

If I have to hear the Allina hold message say "quick care" one more time I might need some quick care. But thank you for the sweeping muzak.

My parents taught me never to call anyone after 9pm and now my dad keeps calling me after 9pm. I know there are more pressing uses for a time machine but I just need it for a sec.

The Target store windows downtown are still covered with images of racially diverse models. Literal window dressing.

Oh wow I was going to make a killer joke but then I found out rapturetimeclock.com actually exists 😳

800,000 people died of COVID and they did not care.

Do you think Bluesky is ever going to take off? Has it taken off for you and I'm the only one in weird tumbleweed land?

A thread with details and timeline.

Coupons make me nervous. I can't rest comfortably knowing I could save 20% at Walgreens but have a limited time to need something at Walgreens.

You can slide a little dateline and see when the leaves are going to change colors! #LeafPeeping www.dnr.state.mn.us/fall_colors/...

Yesterday he begged for civility for his friend, today he’s laughing at murdering civilians.

I hope being as bigoted as Nancy Mace is makes your butthole leak nonstop.

I thought I found a beautiful shell at the beach but it was somebody’s fake nail. Beautiful all the same.

Women are too emotional to be in leadership?

Time and time again, Mayor Frey refuses to stand with our LGBTQ+ community. As @jchavezmpls.bsky.social said, “Refusing to sign our motion to deny these contracts is harmful to our LGBTQ+ community.”

It’s hard to know what Jesus would do because Home Depot parking lots and Hyundai plants did not exist at that time.

The hold music for the Allina Mental Health line is a muzak version of "I've Never Been to Me" and it's a little on the nose.

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

I’ve been trying to avoid Amazon by using eBay more. I finally got a package from eBay that was just the seller sending me an Amazon package with a gift message. Ha ha, oh well.

I know a lot of people are being doxxed by the far right because they were too honest in public about how they felt about the Kirk assassination. I wrote a quick guide about the first things you should do if this is happening to you. (Not paywalled) www.patreon.com/posts/85220523

Finally! I’m back on the algorithm where they show me videos of men athletes performing base level kindness captioned like they’re humanitarians of the century.

I saw a person coming out of the store with a big bag of potting soil. She looked really happy and I did not yell, “YOU GROW GIRL!” For this I award myself a medal of valor.

Well, it might be a little noodle soup that puts you right, worth a check.

Have I though? Have I been “successfully unsubscribed”?

I have an appointment at 4pm and I don’t want to be late, so I think it’s important to spend the next four hours being miserable and then almost be late.

Pretty soon Uptown Minneapolis will just be dispensaries dispensing to other dispensaries. Or maybe a giant dispensary that dispenses dispensaries.

Another funny thing about going back to my old Google calendar is that it has my dating anniversary instead of my wedding anniversary, that is soooo cute! 😍
