Never forget. (Especially when you want to complain about your property taxes!)

Holy fucking shit is this absolute 🔥 Thank you @omarfatehmn.com for calling out Jacob Frey’s lies so clearly. And doing it when he’s sitting three feet from you? 😍

“now more than ever, minneapolis needs a leader. not a liar,” says fateh

This is an amazing point. The Government has dragged their heels on renewable energy for years. What snapped them into action wasn't the existential threat to our climate, but the infrastructural difficulties of tech giants. #spéirgorm

Love to see it! Let’s go a step further and put him in jail!

Stay classy Mpls!

With the Tylenol bullshit I’m reminded that women have always been the scapegoat. Remember, they didn’t burn witches. They burned women. And I have no doubt that some would like to bring that practice back.

Thank you NPR for making the more vulnerable road users the problem. This is terrible framing and irresponsible.

if we could move the headlines from "Does Tylenol Cause Autism?" to "No it fucking doesn't" anytime soon that would be great many have said before me but if the news headline poses a question...? the answer is "No." Are your hedges plotting to kill you? Find out more at 6pm!

Not that I would expect it but Disney could offer its streaming services for free and still make billions of dollars. They don't need that $12/month.

This is precisely how I feel as a Ward 12 resident/voter.

The problem is not enough voters ask questions. They see a white alternative to a brown woman and know they'll vote for the white person, no questions asked. I'm deeply troubled that she's even allowed to campaign and have yard signs when she hasn't met the residential criteria yet.

Pick up a new RCV Mayor yardsign at Bruhaven on Sunday! They look great on their own - or with friends! RSVP today so you can pick one (or more!) up Sunday. buff.ly/h5oQp9S

So ashamed of my neighbors who have Becka signs.

Ted Chiang: "The task that generative A.I. has been most successful at is lowering our expectations, both of the things we read and of ourselves when we write [...]. It is a fundamentally dehumanizing technology because it treats us as less than what we are: creators and apprehenders of meaning."

It's KER-LEAF! season, too! That's one for The Onomatopoedia: The Encyclopedia of Onomatopoeia

For the folks who have lots of minis lying around, it's a 'Zine Storage Box by @mikedawson.bsky.social!

Just in case you needed to hear it from one more place: Tylenol does not cause autism.

Fallcon is coming up in a few weeks! MN State Fairgrounds Grandstand, October 11-12. It's been YEARS since I've been to Fallcon so I'll have a lot of newish stuff including BUTTON PUSHER, EXTRA LARGE, and more! Tickets are $15 for the weekend and kids under 9 get in free! www.mncba.org

Do you know how badly things have to be going in America for us to be owned this hard by the Dutch? The Dutch of all people

Because Minneapolis is still so car-brained, let's start with a month-long pilot. A handful of commercial streets get a month of pedestrianization in the summer, staggered. I don't know if that's even allowed right now though.

I spotted another one of these 'no land grab' signs on the corner of 26th and Portland too.

Wondering about this as well.

Gentle reminder that in the late '50s, the U.S. government did not censor comics. Comics companies censored themselves. Not sure why that crossed my mind today but there it is...

Payne: "I've seen some decisions I just disagree with. The Uptown Mall vote, leaving $300,000 on the table from the Met Council. Reallocating youth programming [employees] that could have been utilized to bring these parks online."

Hey all! I did a guest post on SLJ's Teen Librarian Toolbox blog, on the process of creating a book about a very messy armed conflict, the generational fallout, and why I decided to tackle 'Silenced Voices' as a graphic novel. Check it out! 🙏

A cybertruck for your face

Election 2025: Minneapolis Mayor Race (the four contenders). My ranking: (1) DeWayne Davis (2) Omar Fateh (3) Jazz Hampton naomikritzer.com/2025/09/18/e...

The address to target is: Disney-ABC Home Entertainment and Television Distribution 500 S. Buena Vista St. Burbank, CA 91521-3515

I was a Fateh guy because he had the best chance of beating Frey at the convention, but Davis is clearly the better leader for the city right now -- just a perfect combination of good policy and clear-eyed, big-hearted leadership

I truly don't understand how Frey is running again. As in how mentally and psychologically? How divorced from reality is he?! He has no accomplishments to campaign on. The affluent aren't paying attention to what's gone on under his tenure.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

We truly need a competitive third party in this country.

As part of the Hiawatha Links/golf course redesign project talk I recall reading someone was unable to get zip code data for golf customers to see what % of golfers were actually Mpls residents. I did my own public data request for zips and got it! About 29% of golfers had non-Mpls zips 1/2

It was a good run.

A new Mayor for Minneapolis is possible — and us winning isn’t that much of a long shot. New polling data indicates that we are within 5 points of Jacob Frey. Ranking Omar, Dewayne, and Jazz on your ballot in November can defeat Frey. Together we can win! Rank the whole slate for change.

Duck Duck Coffee will be doing a directed donation drive today - please bring t shirts, underwear, ibuprofen/acetaminophen, shorts, drinks, and especially SHOES during business hours today!

Some neighbors and I in Longfellow believe we can't afford 12 years of Mayor Frey. We are organizing a Longfellow Forum for a New Mayor. Join us for a family friendly format to hear from candidates on housing, police reform, and so much more Sign up here: forms.gle/5jppXJhypevf...

"Have you ever chipped urine off your sidewalk, sir? Because it's not fun." The Cedar Inn wants to move into the larger building next door and neighbors at this well attended zoning committee say absolutely not.

emily koski says jazz hampton is her #1 choice for mayor ahead of early voting beginning on friday and explains why she is ranking him first @jazzformayor.bsky.social

A fence was O'Hara and Frey's solution to yesterday's shooting. The cops and city hall can't do anything because they can't, especially the cops. They're not a social service. And the social services at the city level can't address the systemic, country-wide absence of any real social services. 1/

I think about this post every single time I'm stuck at work when it's rainy or snowing.

It’s my birthday so you should go pre-order my and Richy’s picture book as a gift to me ☺️🙏🏾! 🔗https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/742021/mamis-magic-words-by-kiara-valdez-illustrated-by-richy-sanchez-ayala/

my debut graphic novel 'on starlit shores' comes out in just two weeks today (in the usa)!!!

This will solve nothing.

O'Hara's only job as far as I can tell is to hold press conferences where he tries to act pleading and sensitive and flex his pythons on camera.

If you’re a voter in MN you can sign onto this letter. There are increasingly less and less spaces where all people in our country, especially our neighbors who are trans feel safe and are welcomed. I refuse to be a part of a party that does not stand up for and with our trans neighbors.
