AOC represents EVERY WOMAN in America right now who is sick and tired of misogyny & misinformation.

She represents us and the rage we feel.

Best thing about tech conferences is the gender equity in restroom queues.

Hwy 55 in Mpls pairs all the charmless genericness of a freeway with all the inconvenience of stoplights, and I resent ever having to take it.

Map of the Boundary Waters area watershed, including risks due to mining

Yesterday, the U.S. Senate ended the mining ban protecting the Boundary Waters watershed — by a single vote.

Today, we organize within Minnesota to keep our waters safe. Next up:
1. Contacting MnDNR, manager of mining leases
2. Voting out Pete Stauber, who doesn't care about safe drinking water

Thanks @smith.senate.gov & @klobuchar.senate.gov for holding the floor to delay the vote that was planned for last night!

🚨 Senate vote on mining in the Boundary Waters watershed is happening TODAY!
This isn’t just a nature reserve — some of us LIVE here. The water in my profile photo is at risk of contamination.

Please call your Senators to keep our water safe!

At the risk of stating the obvious, Microsoft Teams is trash.

Trump social post saying “a whole civilization will die tonight” after “47 years”

Trump wearing a MAGA hat that says 45-47

For weeks I’ve been perplexed about why the Iran attacks are happening *now*.

Could it be for branding, since we’re precisely 47 years after the hostage crisis?

I mean, he keeps repeating 47. Even when threatening genocide.

I hate this timeline.

Reddit comment reading, “AND he cheats at hockey”

The perpetual refrain of “Stauber cheats at hockey” is the perfect encapsulation of politics in Minnesota.

Do other people listen to music while working, but periodically must stop to document a song's structure before returning to work?

Just me?

Ok.
Yeah, that tracks.

Data shows three-quarters of ICE arrestees in Minnesota had no criminal record The new data shows fewer than one-quarter of those arrested by immigration agents in Minnesota during Operation Metro Surge had a criminal conviction on their record. A little more than 13 percent of ...

Surprising no one, most of those arrested in Minnesota during the surge were NOT criminals. And more than a third were not on any list for targeting.

Hey jaywalking Minneapolitans, please stop. My dog gets upset every time you take your life in your hands like this. She's a worrier.

Please.

No Kings protest at MN State Capitol in St Paul

MPR app now has a login screen that pops up every time I open the app

MPR app wants to send notifications

MPR app wants my location

I remember when the MPR app just needed one click to listen to the damn radio.

On this BREAKFAST CLUB detention day anniversary, I want you to know I am still mad about this makeover after decades :) John Hughes, what did you have against cool goth girls?!

A text message ostensibly from Jane Fonda, coming from the 763 area code

Oh cool, Jane Fonda has a Twin Cities phone number!

…Does this kind of fundraising work at all?

Reminder:
They have no strategy.
There is no plan.

If this were a real thing, it’d be a great way to garner unengaged voters in the anti-ICE movement.

But of course it’s not real.

Today I learned that BTS is back.
Also that BTS was on hiatus.

Afroman prevails in cops' music video defamation suit after a brief but viral trial The "Because I Got High" rapper made waves in 2023 with the album and song "Lemon Pound Cake," using home video to mock a police raid on his Ohio home. The deputies lost their civil suit against him.

The media cannot ever provide sufficient coverage of Afroman.
It's never too much.

a sign for the ladbrokes championship with a hashtag Alt: hashtag with the word "imminent" spelled out letter by letter

[Old lady complaint incoming]

Although the current administration is unaware of this, each of the following words differ in pronunciation, meaning, and spelling:
* eminent & imminent
* incursion & excursion
* versus & verse

There's no question someone in the White House told Trump to call the war in Iran an "incursion," but he heard it as "excursion" and now he keeps calling it that - making the war sound like a holiday getaway - because no one around him ever corrects him when he makes a mistake.

It’s so weird that he keeps saying Iran is “just a little excursion;” this is 💯 what happened:

In MAGA spaces, people who have seen photos like this believe that he was in the military and have no idea that he got disbursements. The media bubbles are crazy.
