100%. Also their current CEO is a completely shareholder value focused dude who lives in Florida but wants his employees in the office. The last one was bad but he was marginally more human.

Minnesota’s Biggest Companies Call for ‘De-escalation’ of Tensions

The corporations here might as well have just stayed silent if this is their response to ICE: www.nytimes.com/2026/01/25/b...

I used to work at 3M - several friends still do. The CEO now lives in Florida and only just said anything about all of us on Wednesday.

Once again: Focusing on their lack of training is a mistake. With "better training," their violence would simply cost more, and they would still kill whoever they wanted, but make it look more professional — to make people more comfortable, the way many of you are at ease with local police violence.

It did. They're not my favorite donut in the city, but they're popular and there's a decent chance kids were there.

That first cat is a majestic lynx and I want to pet it.

I worked with Alex on a project at the state fair and he's excellent.

I was home with the kids (just one of us is protesting out of precaution) while my husband went to his. His words when he came home: "It didn't feel that cold!" (He had snow pants, a balaclava, heat packs and ski goggles on.)

ICE detained St. Paul resident ChongLy Scott Thao in his underwear. The suspect whom agents were looking for was already in prison — and has been there since Sept. 4, 2024. bit.ly/4qxjGeJ

I went to The Best Steak House once when I had first moved nearby to Frogtown years ago.

Never felt compelled to go back, I guess, but this sure comes across as either intentionally bad or tone deaf. www.facebook.com/share/1763LV...

I figured. There are definitely some outstate folks that are starting to wake up to the horrors of ICE, at least, just not sure if it's enough.

That's what we've been telling you! So don't vote to fund them and show up for this.

Nope nope nope.

And the Science Museum! www.facebook.com/share/p/16Pp...

Good, but ICE should be abolished. It shouldn't receive any funding at all - not just any more - and I hope you'll talk to Klobuchar and McCollum about it, too, since they don't seem to be listening to us.

I emailed McCollum about not funding them at all and got a generic non response. Should call her office today.

Well the U isn't closing completely, but only essential employees are to report to the TC campus.

Right? This and the train museum are popular when the weather is rough like it will be tomorrow, so this is saying a lot.

There is one word in the English language that explains what Minneapolis is experiencing right now: tyranny.

We are under assault by a tyrannical government and its little jackbooted commandant. We are going to keep fighting, and we will win, stand with us.

The model train museum is excellent and I've only been there for kid's birthday parties.

The Children's Museum is closing, too!

Just got an email from our CRM provider - based here - that they'll be closed Friday. First I've seen of anything from a non retail business.

In the same email, they shared "it's worse than you're likely hearing" if you're outside MSP, which is very true.

Bad photo of leftover Lanna Thai's curried fried rice.

Still have Lulu's Salsas leftovers in the fridge.

Ope, just got an email that they will not. "Employees who plan to be away on January 23rd must use vacation or personal holiday time with the supervisor's advance approval."

The U of M's unions are trying to get it to close. I don't see it happening, unfortunately, particularly given their response to date.

Also telling it's pretty much all small businesses - those with the most to lose, really.

This is my kid's school district. He's actually in a PreK through Community Ed so he has school still, but no Discovery Club so one of us has to leave work early.

Bringing him to school today felt eerie. All staff there. No kids except the PreK, and about half of them at that.

I didn't end up taking the PTO I'd planned for last Friday and was debating moving it to this Friday but I'm not quite sure if that counts for a strike? SPPS has it rough since they're off Monday-Wednesday already.

So very shocked ICE is lying yet again.

I have a really warm coat that just has an annoying (but still functional) zipper I'll try to drop off.

Unfortunately, it seems he was rearrested. For reporting to Whipple as he was instructed to. Insane..

To watch The Price is Right. Because drinking at 10 am is fine if it's with friends, right??
