Delighted of course, to celebrate Pride. Vital question though, did any of you guys call yourselves Obergfellers after you got married?

Trump said MN Gov Walz was "Whacked out...a mess." I say Walz leads with honesty and compassion. I'll take open-hearted over a bully any day.

This is the most Virgil Flowers crime solving, ever.

A 40-Year Fight to Get Speed Bumps Powderhorn Park fought for change for 40 years. After stop signs in the ’80s and four different mayors, they got their speed bumps — finally.

Why, just this morning we were sitting on the front steps, watching cars slow for the speed bumps. A lovely early summer morning in Powderhorn Park.

Why, just this morning we were sitting on the front steps, watching cars slow for the speed bumps and seeing bike commuters not terrified. A lovely early summer morning.

#font people what the hell is going on with this 3? Is that an upside down E? Why are the numerals on Florida license plates so weird?

Listening to it over the last few days. My skin is crawling. Shallow breathing, and a constant need to shower.

What does former MN Senator and carpetbagger Norm Coleman have to gain by toadying up and defending Hegseth?

CrimeW@tch Mpls creating fake profiles of Black people and pretending to speak for/as Black residents in South Minneapolis is some real next-level racist, nefarious shit.

Good eye, Molly.

Honestly, Franklin Ave is such a mess, that offering consistent lanes (for bikes and cars) will probably bring traffic back. I truly dislike traveling on Franklin because of the inconsistent parking signage and lane shifts. I might go by the Fetus more if they make it less of a PIA to get there.

Help me understand, how is this great? End 🧵

bolster domestic production, and they aren't going to make America great again. They are just going to make lunch a little less interesting; they'll make small, US producers a little more desperate to find markets; and they'll churn a little frisson of fear down the food chain. 🧵6/

that week they were still younger and fresher than any foodstuff shipped from West Coast producers. Buyers routinely said it looked better, tasted better, and the kids actually ate it!

These cuts are not going to prove a point. They aren't going to strengthen markets or bulwark our borders or 🧵5/

When I purchased from local growers for school meal programs, the produce would often arrive the day before it shipped, barely dry from the fields, practically still respirating. When those bunches of beets, heads of lettuce, cases of kale, potatoes, and carrots hit the prep tables later 🧵4/

going to have to find other sources or rely on mass-produced food from far-away farms and factories in other parts of the country. 🧵3/

Most of Trump's sudden budget cuts have not affected me personally - not yet - but this one cuts close to home. People I love and care deeply for are going to be hurt by these cuts. School nutrition directors I worked with, Second Harvest program managers and hungry families are all 🧵2/

Earlier this week, USDA cut more than one billion US dollars designated for schools and food banks to purchase from local producers. Fresh, local food grown and produced for K-12 schools and food shelves has been cut off from regional markets.

Mr President. Throwing our country into chaos is a weak man's way to compensate for his crushing fear...

Yes, it's personal and it's mean, that's the point. Julie's is just as angry and she skipped the personal insult. She wrote hers with a Dr's Without Borders pen 🔥

@johnsandford.bsky.social listening to Golden Prey and remembered that the great Richard Ferrone has passed and we won't have his voice guiding us through future Lucas and Virgil adventures. Especially pissed cause I can't tell him they're called "brahts", not "brats".

Welp, just like that the park across the street is brown, humidity in the house is comfortable, and walkways are slippery with mud and refrozen snow melt in the shade. Spring came quickly.

"Fascism always fails"

Russia invaded Ukraine.
And by the way, Mr Trump, you are kowtowing to the leader of a former, and failed oligarchy, a weak leader.

Where are the voices of the Greatest Generation? Why are we not hearing a deafening chorus of elders demanding Trump honor the US history of fighting fascism?

Thank you, Oliver Steinberg, whoever you are, for a laugh that kept me going all day.
Trumpery, a real noun that means "worthless nonsense."

First week at a new job, and the person doing orientation mentioned as an aside, apropos of nothing, "Well, we know they are using chemtrails to control the weather." I questioned whether I should complete my onboarding.

Pilsen Chicago photo dump. Even if the dead of winter this neighborhood is alive with color.

I've felt the silent power of an observant owl and it was chilling. I can't imagine what that's like for the rabbit.
No pics (it was dark) but I rode back down there this afternoon and it was gorgeous.
