Print whistles if you can. Be ready, print signs because they're coming for you next. What are you going to do when they come for you?

You've seen the videos. Minneapolis is not the burned down apocalypse they've projected over the last 5 years. Stop click farming and do something. We have over 30k constitutional observers here. If you can't protest, put a sign or a candle in your window, buy gift cards from mpls businesses.
I hardly ever post here but I'm so angry and frankly it's all very frightening. It's a dystopian world you can't imagine. Iceout pings my phone non-stop. I came home from work Friday to whistles as ICE kidnapped a neighbor it was the third or 4th time they've been here in a week.
There are so many businesses helping but they can't sustain it all as business is slowing.

Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice
Singing through the bloody mist
Weβll take our stand for this land
And the stranger in our midst

You get used to it after a bit. By Christmas we're pretty adjusted to the cold weather. By February we're saying it's warm. The hardest part is figuring out when to wash your car.
Tiny whistles
These whistles are so tiny. I had a rare (these days) moment of humor imagining I would have the most amusing flatulence if I happened to swallow one.
Remember, all elections matter. Every single one of them.
Greg Ketter in a cloud of tear gas.
Greg Ketter of Dreanhaven books is 70 and fucking angry. I'm angry too.
No one interested in it at all here.
CNN in Minneapolis: We are seeing thousands and thousands of people, we've been standing on the corner here for the past ten minutes. This this crowd has not let up. It's just continuous.
I'm so tired. We're all so damn tired. I don't really post here often but I am a real human. This place though, Minneapolis is one of the warmest cold places in existence. You'd have to come here to understand that we are full of amazing people. Look out for your neighbors.

I'd go golfing too.
I feel like we could pen a "We told you so" letter to the SCOTUS. We did warn them they created a monster. They gave him Carte Blanche and he knows it.
