i guarantee this guy has life insurance policies on every member of his family this is him making bets hoping for a payout

Commentary: Out-of-state investors buy up manufactured home parks, then implement aggressive rent hikes on residents who own their homes but rent the land beneath. As eviction rates climb across the state, homeowners need protection from these practices. minnesotareformer.com/2026/02/25/m...

Jokes we tell

Huh, wonder if they were smuggling Fentanyl. What a crazy time it would be if Cuba killed US drug smugglers.

do you want to support a MN artist and own a trans/gay soft cuddly bat? have I got a one-stop shop for you

It’s disorienting how fast the country moved on. In Minnesota, families are still living with raids, detentions, and federal force in their neighborhoods. The cameras left. The headlines faded. The fear didn’t.

It feels like 2020 all over again, after the national protests were done and we were left alone to pick up the wreckage and seek some sort of justice for George Floyd. Except this time it's not even over. There is no drawdown.

Dispatches from MN: it's getting really hard, guys. The media has left, the donations are drying up, and ICE is still here kidnapping people. It's hard not to be resentful that other people have the option of setting this aside for.other things.

it sucks our media is so easily manipulated by incompetent fascists- "uhh, yeah we're totally leaving Minneapolis, so u guys can go home now....hehe heh heh"

we had the windows cracked cuz our property management likes to crank the heater up and you could hear those two helicopters and that drone all night long

They were so low & loud & persistent in South Minneapolis last night that my cat started panicking & seeking cover to the point that @phoenix-rights.bsky.social had to put him in his carrier & we had to sleep with it between us in order to achieve a semblance of calm & get any further sleep.

More than half of the kids in state care are Indigenous people. Ford is attempting to hide Ontario's contribution to Canada's ongoing genocide against Indigenous people. From residential schools to the present child "welfare" system, Canada has never stopped committing crimes against humanity.

"I need someone here now, or else I'm going to have to shoot this kid." -- ICE terrorist when a cyclist followed him

Ultimately, the people freaking out over the snowballs aren't *literally* afraid of snowballs, they just believe they should be able to kill anyone who annoys them and they get wish fulfillment from cops, a class of people that is mostly allowed to do that, and are furious at a rare exception

i really really need to make sales soon so we can buy groceries and pay bills, got a bunch of headbands made!! check these out! there's a ton of designs up ko-fi.com/kflstudios/s... #bsnm #handmade #mutualaid support a minneapolis local!!

unfortunately we are going to need help with rent this upcoming month, if anyone's got a few bucks to toss in my tip jar or wants to buy stuff from my shop. short month and low sales really sucks ass. it's cool that walz and frey are off fucking around and the landlords aren't backing down either

reminder, i am offering pay what you want shredding services in south minneapolis! i use the resulting material as rabbit litter if it's the right kind of paper, otherwise its just shredded and fucked up before getting tossed in the trash 📃📑🗞️📦

today would have been my dad's birthday, please consider checking out my shop and buying something or donating. even a little bit helps right now! dad taught me to sew and make jewelry yay i need help getting our rent paid so bad. we should be ok next month cuz im vending more, this month's been 💀

Also a reminder that the Epstein ring literally promoted pro-censorship and puritan laws and social policies (which is exactly what these harassers are doing!) because censorship actively protects traffickers. Especially queer censorship. Especially artistic censorship.

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Until this country reckons with police and policing, nothing will improve.

So the US supreme Court just ruled the usps doesn't have to deliver mail to black people

I've watched a few in my life, and the thing is- even when the president is not a senile lunatic- they're genuinely not very entertaining or informative. It's sort of like "attending mass for the American civic religion"- not recommended.

I think bsky probably does have a reputation for bullying but also I think men need to learn to act normal to me, by force if necessary

jfc this is absurd

instead of watching the sotu tonight, we are going to do chores and make dinner. if he drops dead please let me know if its going on as long as they claim, will probably see people frantically posting about it anyways lol

Every single hotel that benefited from Operation Metro Surge should pay the rent for a family affected by it for 6 months. To start. Then make real amends.

can we do billionaire choppy choppy and get some money back yet

Absolutely wild considering what's happening in this city. Wtf. I voted to raise my property taxes to avoid this. What's going on here?

Police Departments make a lot more sense when you realize they are just a New Deal make-work program for every city’s violent but sensitive oaf population

If this man dies, ICE murdered him. This is how they work. They don’t need mass graves and unburied shell casings they will just put weak and vulnerable people in positions where they can suffer and die and then wait. If they survive they can do it again. You do not hate the modern Gestapo enough.

this is the only compelling anti-kink at pride argument ive heard

While the NYPD frets over snowballs, it’s good to remember they’ve raped men with batons and turned Rikers into a de-facto death sentence for people committing the crime of “looking suspicious” or “talking back” so maybe the mayor of New York can tell these lying pieces of shit to shut the fuck up

is it just me, or is the internet as a whole running and loading like complete ass lately? i'm running across it on my desktop, on the phone, just everything grinding all slow and shit what's nuts is it's both connection AND websites, like two bad tastes that go slower and more bandylegged together

planning and execution was sloppy but we appreciate the fighting spirit

i swear to fuckin god we need community volunteers with cowcatchers on their vehicles to gently nudge people like this into a ditch, for the safety of others lol

Are you fucking kidding me. This should be an instant license suspension.

With protesters calling for an eviction moratorium at Minneapolis City Hall this morning (to quote the banners): “We fought ICE to keep our neighbors here”; “now we’re fighting to keep ‘em in their homes.”

The Canadian government on Monday announced plans to send aid to Cuba, which is currently being squeezed economically by a US oil embargo. A Canadian aid package to Cuba would be the latest rebuff to US foreign policy.

my local park is full of hundreds of snow sculptures and someone has been adding museum labels

🙃

Repeatedly watching how she pulls the mic away when he speaks on private equity & I can't stop thinking about the way that our employment system forces people into craven cowards that have to do real-time self-preservation calculus that results in actions that conflict entirely with class solidarity

I hate st louis

People's attention is drifting away, partly because ICE told everyone they were leaving (FYI: they're still here) and partly just because ... people get tired of stories and want to move on. I get it. We're also, frankly, tired of this story. But it's not actually over here.

heads up to people like me that have art files and silly things they have kept for years
