That honestly sounds like a good set up! I also have ancillary perfume trays (mostly of stuff I’m trying to use up or remind myself to wear)

I’m constantly arranging and rearranging so I feel that! My husband made me a perfume cabinet as an anniversary gift this year and that also made me realize that it’s easier for me to look at fewer perfumes and just change them out more often. The visual clutter gets to me!

I separate first by season (ones out of season live in a drawer) and I group the shelves in my cabinet by the vibe/feeling they give me

oh commuters just found the motherlode of ice agents at a suburban hotel, including, potentially, bovino himself. a bunch of confirmed ICE and CBP cars from the bovino convoy there. spring hill suites in maple grove.

people of the twin cities, do with this info what you will.

i think the "immigration turns high trust societies into low trust societies" people were already on really shaky ideological ground but now they're watching neighbors helping one another and calling them paid antifa agitators

If you are running for president you should make clear you’re gonna send Greg Bovino to prison

On the bright side, I might get to waste everyone’s time in a trespassing trial this week. Not exaggerating when I say this would improve my morale so much lmao

There was a call in my neighborhood rapid response chat for more patrollers to go out. Seems everyone is tired, so very few people were out. My husband and I went out and when we did, saw that countless others heeded the call too. I love my neighbors so much. Tired but unbroken.

Protests happen, but most of what is happening in Minneapolis isn’t protesting.

More accurate terms:
- observers
- witnesses
- volunteers
- neighbors
- residents
- people

β€œWe attempted deescalation techniques (having six armored officers beat the man senseless, taking away his gun, and pepper spraying him). Unfortunately he was still resisting (alive), so we were forced to escalate (shoot him five times in the back).”

β€œWhat was his crime?”

β€œAssaulting us”

One thing that would make me feel better is if other people also bullied the big Minnesota fragrance tiktoker (Maria Helen rue) in her comments for posting a cheerful β€œhere’s new perfume releases!” video today

things are horrific on the ground at the scene in mn right now, and another upside of the signal chat network is that people are learning what is happening in real time.

find yours. join it. build it before you need it.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.
