Man in critical condition after shooting involving ICE agents along I-5 in Stanislaus County The acting director for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) identified a man shot by federal agents Tuesday morning in Stanislaus County.

I would like to talk more about how ICE shot someone else yesterday and he is in critical condition! The coverage is really horrifying because DHS is giving a similar story to the one they gave about Renee Good and so much news coverage is just buying it. Please talk about Carlos Mendoza Hernandez.

I've seen those English dramas too, they're cruel

One of my former neighbors got upset about a truck parked in front of his house, and another neighbor came over and projected a yule log onto the side of it (it was December). There may have been caroling? This is a way better solution than prohibition, imo. Think of all the seasonal possibilities!

Having been raised by a mom who wouldn't let me do cheer bc "it used to be the only option for girls" when she was growing up, truly so pissed Title IX is being used to discriminate against trans athletes with bs lawsuits to punish our state for caring about people.

Crime in the United States has dropped immensely in the last 35 years

Still recovering from the number of entitled white dudes repeating "let's bring back civility!!!!" in DFL politics, in between statements that would be considered socially inappropriate if made by their opponents.

THIS! Like, teach them to knit! Build tiny ships in bottles! Solder a keyboard! Frost cookies to look like cartoon characters!

If you're really worried about fine motor skills, let's not confine the youth to only one obsolete art...

bluesky could be better if there were less people posting about how bluesky isn’t twitter in 2015

I don't really know what "Leave a Future" means, but I can tell you it is an anagram of "Refute a Value"

I have a documentation joke but I forgot to write it down

Was telling a former exchange student about this yesterday; she stayed with us a year ago and was surprised at that time by how little politics was discussed in public spaces/school.

Proud to earn the endorsement of the @stonewalldfl.bsky.social. LGBTQ+ rights are fundamental human rights, and every Minnesotan deserves to live safely, openly, and with dignity. I’m committed to defending equality, supporting kids and families, and building a Minnesota where everyone belongs. 💙🌈

Bakken museum 50 innovators LEGO monifigure hide & seek handout featuring Dillon White aka dadchats

The Bakken has a dadchats minifig in their scavenger hunt, which I think is amazing, but if they don't also have a momchats "can you griddle it" exhibit I'm going to riot.

I missed my chance to give this a standing ovation, I was getting mini donuts

This is incredible!!

I wrote my undergrad honors thesis on how US politicians and media use women's rights as a propaganda for war in the middle east, when what they really want is proxy battles and oil. Can we share the cinder block?

I found a salon that when I ask for bangs my stylist will go "...I think that's unwise, let's discuss your actual motivations so that I, an expert in hair, can help you find something suitable". Now I just need to find this person in every other professional field. AI would never.

When it comes to AI agents / AI tooling + coding, I hear an awful lot of talk about:

Efficiency

Iteration speed / PR output rate / lines of codes produced

I hear zero mentions about:

Quality

Customer obsession

This will bite back, and it probably already is...

Keith is right: Jess is a voice we deserve and need in government, especially in this time of great challenge to moral courage.

Some professors at the University of St. Thomas are doing a research project on the effects of the ICE occupation on Twin Cities parents. They're looking for parents who are US citizens, who live in the Twin Cities metro area, and who have kids ages 5-10.

I learned Spanish after I was hired to teach it at a school where I had not applied for that job, because another teacher told me I just needed to "stay one day ahead of the class."

Colleague: I have a problem I'd like to solve.
Me: Hell yeah, let's do it. What's the problem?
Colleague: SOLUTION!
Me: Sorry, that's a solution. Not a problem. But, based on that solution, is the problem X?
Colleague: No?
Me: Okay, what's the problem?
Colleague: So...solut...solution?
Me: *Sigh*

"The prison is too well-organized. Have you considered a warehouse surrounded by alligators?"

Love this, would totally buy

Do you know how many Pete Hegseth types I grew up with? Little rich boys that told me I didn't get to have an opinion on War and Peace because I'd never be drafted. Then I had to watch them play fight club in their mansions when they didn't even know how to square up to throw a proper punch.
