I don't know who needs to hear this but if you're only "fine" when everyone in your life walks on eggshells around you you're not fine.

Lol we got these at reg
The top notch organizing in Minneapolis and the Twin Cities Metro to defend our neighbors has shown to be effective at derailing abduction attempts.
It has also shown that some of you didn't have neighborhood group texts before now.
I'm sure your potluck attendance will improve after we win.
Before I came, I asked a local friend if the cold (it's going to be -20 or so in the coming days) would stop people from coming out. "No, we'll be there. It's ICE who can't handle it."
Could you hear our cheers from the overflow room?
Didn't know this was going to be my tipping point but I'll say it: if Prior Lake is with us we're going to win ⚖️
A lot of non-Minnesotans are asking how they can help people in the Twin Cities. Here's a very easy way that will cost you absolutely nothing.
Do not vent in the replies to videos or other posts from Minnesotans.
We're all on edge, and your rageposting and doomposting isn't what we need right now.

Taking a break from all this and going to church
Your opening remarks were a stark reminder of how real the situation with ICE raids has gotten on the ground in Minneapolis. Thank you for framing the meeting with that perspective.
Deleted a tweet because I was confusing two events. Thanks!
I was genuinely dismayed that this very good dig on St Paul didn't get the round of applause it deserved
If you lost your Silverado I found it.
That Hoffman clip was when I knew Fateh could win endorsement.

Thanks to Rep. Koegel, Sen. Dibble and Rep. Jones for speaking the truth that the budget is being unfairly balanced on the backs of transit riders (and the future transit system we should be building), while road funding is protected. #mnleg (1/2)
i saw so much leadership from the mayoral candidates on site. @omarfatehmn.com talking to an upset woman who saw agents take people away. @jazzformayor.bsky.social running around trying to deescalate. @dewayneforminneapolis.com checking on the person who was injured
no mayor frey

After a powerful day of organizing, the Ward 10 Convention ended with us in first place with 52% of the delegates. This win is a testament to our transformative work together over the last 4 years and the power of our vision of a city where everyone has what they need to thrive.
Having served on a Community Advisory Committee, I think a lot about how we need parks to be a third space for everyone in the community.
Too many want parks to be an extension or their backyard and not something for visitors outside the city or even the neighborhood to enjoy.
If you see a good girl on the train no you didn't
Jason might be more popular than hot dish in Ward 9
Ooof.
Same here in 9, South auditorium feels packed
Hope you feel better soon!
My body is ready
Interesting to learn that that, "75% of rejections are from ATS" was from a random now defunct company ad from 2012
High praise.
60 miles without an aid station is 100 miles, actually.
Nothing brings me more joy than people-watching on a bike corridor.
Happy to speak more on any of these, or share the story of getting 86ed from Surly for wheeling my bike to a location visible from the back patio
Yep, this is front-of-mind for me whenever I park my bike.
Factors for me are:
1) which bike do I have ($$$)
2) how long will the bike be locked up
3) is the locking location visible from my destination?
