noise freaks heed this - I'm going on a mini tour with some good pals this week. Starting this Wednesday at New World here in Minneapolis!

When they replaced the second floor room with the pneumatic musical instruments it sealed my fate forever. The kinetic sculpture after was amazing too

huge enormous Yunker Farm W god that place was incredible

This one is near and dear to my heart as a former Section 8 recipient. It took me over 10 years to get to the top of that waiting list, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without it. Losing their vouchers would be devastating, and we can help!

Just got a message from South High saying “We currently have requests totaling $33,965 for rent and we have $7500 available tomorrow. Please try to share the gofundme widely! Thanks”

Well, that simply will not do. I'll match the first $900. Please help my fellow South High families if you can! 🖤🧡🖤

Santa better not partner with palanteer. Id be so pissed

If and when ICE leaves, they’ve still kidnapped our neighbors and left them to rot in concentration camps.

I lied and specifically it was 2:20 but the whole hour block was a three part synchronized effort 😎

DRONE NOT DRONES: the 11th annual 28-hour drone; a benefit for Doctors Without Borders and MPLS aid YouTube video by Drone Not Drones

playing Drone Not Drones tomorrow 2pm

Is this detailed anywhere I can reference?

Great. If our documents aren’t safe, theirs aren’t either

EVICTION MORATORIUM NOW

hey man rent is due today and at this point an eviction moratorium is a public safety issue

you just gonna let all these people get kicked out onto the streets and then scooped up into detention?? don't feed this cycle of violence

One of the hardest things to explain to people who aren’t here is the very real feeling that we are in a war against the federal government. Not only are we occupied by unaccountable armed, masked paramilitaries, but we are constantly aware our neighbors might be abducted in the blink of an eye.

Chuck Schumer just announced demands on DHS to avoid shutdown:
1. End roving patrols, tighten rules on warrants
2. Enforce accountability & unified code of conduct for agents
3. No more masks & require bodycams

There are *already* standards on much of this.

The issue is DHS isn't following them!

the creative ways people are showing up and helping is largely invisible but trust me: it's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen

To people outside of MN. And it’s not just Mpls that hasn’t slowed down, either.

Downfall Bovino Edition. You're welcome.

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”

That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

I am just gonna say it, these guys are completely emasculated by the knowledge that they have been out-organized by a group that is significantly made up of women, and all the bullshit call of duty nonsense is cope for their wounded egos bsky.app/profile/jeet...

Yeah, I'm not saying it's not bad at all, but in the overall schema of harms facing the community we can't let their low effort attempts to rattle us into becoming inactive.

Totally. People need to understand that it's a bullying threat, and as long as they are good on their OPSEC (these trolls are NOT genuises) folks can continue to keep eachother safe.

I think the most notable aspect of this to me is it exposed a lot of otherwise 'normal' people who are still finding their legs in this moment to the kind of mindless fear trolling and posturing that the rest of us have been enduring for a decade+ in any type of public comment box

Make it 3 days!!!!!

Don’t ask don’t tell worked for them before? 🤷‍♀️

impeccable, bolstering

they're getting soooo tired of this, they have to be

If it's sufficiently low-friction it should, hopefully, only need to be done once per member, the first time will suck for everyone but I really do think something like this & good hygiene with actual face-to-face trusted neighbor vouching could be important step towards resiliency in this layer
