Door-opener shift at the mutual aid event space (doors stay locked)

All my local mercados & panaderías

Walking up to an open restaurant and pulling on the door before realizing it’s locked and you need to wait for someone to let you in. Pretty common experience the last 2 months around the metro.

Minneapolis, February 2026

Remember when ICE vehicles drove around in circles in North for a couple days while going wild elsewhere causing those spending their days following ice for content to all fly out?

Big news for Minnesota! From 2024 to 2025 we gained residents from domestic migration for the first time in almost a decade.

Extra exciting because this is the first year of data following historic public investments made during the 2023 legislative session 👊🎉

Stained glass effect panel and light coming through it onto the ice. It says "Fuck ICE"

The Art Shantys Project, despite happening literally on ice, is very anti-ICE.

Lovely thread. Kudos to this small team of helpers.

Image of a barricade with “block aid blockade” written on it. A group of 30ish neighbors are gathered down the block around a fire pit.

We had several block parties/mutual aid fundraisers throughout the neighborhood today. I met several neighbors I didn’t yet know.

I ❤️ Minneapolis & my neighbors.

DSA breakfast sandwich caucus.

See I even posted about this already lmao bsky.app/profile/fack...

(currently asking my friends if they need anything from the store on my way to join them)

Stav heatedly saying the phrase "the hehe implies I was being a little slutty" while in a blowout argument with Adam over a breakfast sandwich, is something that is permanently etched in my mind.

I believe they're takeout only as of right now.

Idk what happened to my bike in the dream but I legit think I locked it to a door or some shit.

The fire dept showed up and the dream ended with being scolded by a firefighter for swearing so loudly but otherwise being friendly to me after determining ICE made a false report.

The dream culminated with me, off my bicycle at the entrance to a big apartment building preventing entry to ICE agents. Then the ICE agents called the fire department to try to force us out of the way.

I had a very vivid dream that I was biking around and found my way into a parking ramp, where I started biking past very obvious ICE agents so I started shouting "Fuck ICE" while circling them. Then I saw other folks in the ramp start to casually put distance between themselves and the agents.
