I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Stay free

I figure you’re getting new material to learn.

I wrote this yesterday about the hero city of Minneapolis

"The DFLer in 47A is unopposed, can't I skip?"/ "64A is a super blue district, do I really need to worry about this one?"

GO VOTE OUT OF SPITE.

GO VOTE TO SHOW THAT OUR STATE VOTES NO MATTER WHAT.

I find it funny that the fash are saying that "everyone is organised and so people must be paying them" and I think "Minneapolis is full of SF geeks, I'm pretty sure they all at least know someone who's read 'The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress'..."

Now does seem a good time to remember that Minnesota Caucuses are a little over a week away.

Today I’m helping out at my job from 20+ years ago, helping Greg & the DreamHaven crew ship books across the country to folks who inundated their webstore after seeing him on TV.

Website is still down, but later try DreamHavenbooks.com for all your sci-fi, horror, fantasy, film, & comics needs!

Friendship thou ne'er couldst fashion;
Fain would I tell | how Fenrir once
Thy right hand rent from thee."

Non-masked MN National Guard are out handing out hot chocolate, coffee and donuts to protesters. One simple act has de-escalated the situation and helped gain the trust of people. See the difference between professional soldiers and the pretend tough guys in CBP and ICE?

Conservatives seem baffled by the amount of organization going on in MSP. A reminder that Prince died in the afternoon, and by nightfall the entire city has shut down and turned into a well organized dance party celebrating his life. The only thing bigger than MSP hearts are their brains.

It also reminds me of people that are surprised by the running of all-volunteer science fiction conventions.

“The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.”

MINNESOTA VERSION OF COME OUT YE BLACK AND TANS

DreamHaven Books owner Greg Ketter emerging from a cloud of tear gas that ICE agents fired into the streets of Minneapolis.

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

I know Will wasn’t the first to say it, but I cant stop thinking about “we will never have as many guns as they have/they will never have as many people as we have” and how easy that makes it to pick a strategy

Our struggles with Ghorman are well-documented by this point.

ICE has shot and killed another Minnesotan.

A man was killed today because a reckless paramilitary force has been released on American streets against its own citizens.

Everyone should be outraged. We need Trump to remove ICE from MN immediately. Stop killing us.

If you’re not from here, I need to explain this execution was on Eat Street, a commercial corridor of restaurants and coffee shops that literally everyone goes to. Normies, queermos, weirdos, neighborhood folks. Whatever that place is in your city, imagine ICE executing someone in cold blood there.

Astounding

meanwhile, Minnesotans are out there doing Christianity on its intended difficulty level: loving their neighbor, welcoming the stranger, feeding the hungry, and comforting the afflicted.

The Bible: faith without works is dead

Bros: No problem! we will simply have Christianity without either faith or works

Yes, this is functioning exactly as intended.

I'm even rarely out in the wild (though I need to figure out ways to do that more) but the thought is very appreciated!
