Friends from outside Minnesota have asked me if there are celebrations in the street over Noem being fired. To anyone not in MN: no. people are still buying neighbors groceries and collecting for their rent and patrolling. If ice is abolished or trump dies, then mpls will celebrate

I have spent many a night outside my bed, standing guard at local stores in -20 because Noem’s rough men were doing violence on trump’s behalf

A source in the Twins org told me that they are working on a response to the sick Saint’s St Paul resistance jacket.

The source said the clothing item would β€œblow the corduroy right off those East-of-the-Mississippi hicks’ backs”

They saw budlight, failed to realize that budlight’s issue was pissing everyone off by disavowing support for trans people + people not drinking bad light beer as much. They also failed to realize that their clientele is mostly liberal leaning women while BL’s was mostly conservative men.

Man, Target had an opportunity to come out strongly against ICE. They could have, I think, fairly easily recaptured a lot of goodwill they lost and would not have lost many customers.

I remember being impressed with their statement post George Floyd’s murder. Sad that they became cowards or worse.

Commissioner Abene,
I am writing you once again to ask that you support open parkways around the uptown lakes this summer. I don't envision a near future where residents won't be scared of potentially being
abducted by ICE. Please help keep our neighbors safe and allow the lakes to be enjoyed by ALL minneapolis residents opening the parkways to noncar traffic and putting more space between residents and the roving ICE vehicles in our neighborhoods.

Additionally, now that our city is under ICE occupation, open parkways has the additional benefit of keeping residents safe in our parks by not allowing ICE to drive their blacked out SUVs around the lakes where residents are trying to safely enjoy them. Putting additional space between ICE convoys and residents is vitally important to allowing ALL residents to enjoy the parks especially as the weather gets nice.
Please do not enable ICE to terrorize people in our beloved parks by blocking Open Parkways.

What stage of hyper-fixation on local politics includes emailing your park board commissioner asking them to support Open Parkways around the lakes as an Anti-ICE measure?

Thank you for defending kingfield. Everyone in Kingfield (minus the salvation army store owner and 1 guy with a suspiciously upright US flag) hates ice and supports eviction pauses.

I censored the license plate so no one adds it to to their ICE database as a joke

We’ve been doing no MPD but have still been paying. We gotta try to stop paying for a month

Can we just try no MPD for a month? Use that money for mutual aid and rent relief and if it fails, then mid April we can have an MPD again. I sort of doubt most people would notice

The bar for every local and statewide office has to be: during the federal occupation of Minnesota did you do more to help the people than the average wine mom. If the answer is no, you should not run

3rd precinct on fire with the text: give us the Nobel peace prize

3rd precinct on fire with the text: give us the Nobel peace prize

If you’re in your 30s and your friend group isn’t talking about:
-where to put their nobel peace prize
-who to buy groceries or pay rent for
-when your patrol shift starts
-license plate numbers

You need a new friend group. Your network is your net worth

I trust rainville and his allies will consider this public questioning of a business to be just as big an affront and slippery slope as they considered the public comment session for the ICE hotels liquor license to be.

Had my shirt people do a quick mock up. You may be shocked to learn that customink does not offer men’s or unisex crop tops as an option so some subtle photo manipulation was required
