Due to a confluence of family and plumbing emergencies, we've had to push the May 1991 Teen Life episode a week. We'll have it to you on September 2 -- thank you for your patience! #Sassy

The slow but real progression into fascism as charted by the évolution of the lego police officier Lego police officier looking meaner and meaner.

Good morning Bluesky !

Thanks! I will be!

Hey all, I recently had to spend a week in the hospital and decided to restart listening to AWT90210 from the beginning. And it made some very long nights a lot more tolerable. So thanks! Long time fan and supporter!

Musk has admitted that he and Trump plan to collapse the U.S. economy completely and that if Trump wins, USians should prepare for hardship. The plan requires millions to sink into poverty, food insecurity, and be preyed upon by organized crime, addiction, and corporations.

Just a reminder that Donald Trump, Musk, and their regressive inner circle have been plotting to engineer a Great Depression for years now. When you have trouble affording rent, food, or your local economy starts to collapse, remember, someone did this on purpose to you. #3E

I always appreciate my spouse but especially the last few weeks. They are awesome, and my rock. I'm lucky.

Married to Spouse for 12 years today. Yes, we got married the day the law changed in MN

All holidays are made up, wth?

Spending my birthday morning sipping cold press and posting Happy Juneteenth on all of the whiny posts about "a made up holiday," as you do

Dammit. Driver says he didn't see it. Who takes a bag full of books?

Left a bag of library books in my Lyft last night. Hope I get them back!

Upon this response, JK burst into a million shards and a great wind scattered her unhappy soul beneath the arc of a newly formed rainbow.

My local library closes this weekend for scheduled renovations for the remainder of 2025. I'm legit sad about it. I ❤️ my half mile walk. Going to a different location by bus just won't be the same.

Angry crowd boos Georgia congressman Rich McCormick over support for Donald Trump agenda, DOGE U.S. Rep. Rich McCormick said during a town hall that he does not want to see any president be “too powerful.”

So, here's what will happen: Republican members of Congress will stop holding town halls and all these angry old people will reelect them anyway.

I remember when right-wing media said that I wasn’t qualified to be a member of Congress because of my credit card debt. My debt was nowhere near $1.2 million.

Do they think the same of RFK Jr? Or does that standard only apply to young people? We know the answer.

This is hilarious. I especially like the annexation of Green Bay and the mystery Mississippi River announcement.

The DOGE kids showing up at Treasury:

Go vote, NE Mpls! #93 at my polling place this morning!

The remote work debate was funny because it forced the question "Is a job something valuable you do or is it a place you go to be watched like daycare" and the answer for a lot of them was yeah it's the daycare thing now come on inside recess is over

From the All of Mpls email blast: Among the serious harms associated with the rising crime is the closure of many small businesses that provide much needed jobs and contribute to the overall vitality of our city. In the past few weeks alone South Minneapolis lost one of its favorite restaurants, a Frattalone's hardware store, and a CVS. Most of the money that was slashed from the MPD budget appears to have gone to fund pet projects of the extreme-left City Council majority** One example is Ward 9 Council Member Jason Chavez's recent announcement of a City grant to his supporters to form a new workers collective at May Day Café. While the recent closings of Frattalone's, CVS, and Revival will result in the loss of more than one hundred jobs, the extreme-left Council majority** continues to give money away to their ultra-leftwing supporters. This is not how the City Council should be spending our tax dollars. Please continue to reach out to your City Council Member and urge them to restore the cuts they made to the MPD recruitment budget. Thank you for your time, your support and your commitment to our City. Karin Birkeland Chair, All of Mpls

I mostly offer this as comedy, because it’s laughable that Jacob Frey’s millionaire PAC is blaming lefties for the closure of … CVS? And the Revival restaurants that closed metro-wide?

I was dozing and listening to this episode, and the way I jerked awake when they said the name of this book. LOL. I had to restart the episode.

Spouse and I were #73 & 74 at our polling place this morning. It was -5°F and sunny, so, not an unpleasant quick walk to cast votes. A neighbor offered us a ride home while we were bundling up to walk back. We thanked him, but walked home.

Your periodic reminder that if you need to get out of your house FAST, do not bother trying to stuff your cats into carriers, just scoop them up in pillowcases. (You can drop said squirming rage sacks into carriers for added security if you have time.)

Thou Shalt Not Allow Polio to Come Back Holy shit, what the fuck.

The polio vaccine worked so well, humans forgot polio existed — and somehow that’s the problem.

I love the drone panic because its a reminder that despite all our technology and societal advancement we're never more than one unanswered question from reverting to peasants worried we'll make the stars mad
