Nice! I spotted a Fuck ICE one near me, too.
Unfortunately an official did come and take away the sign. But she did make an entire loop first!
Absolute legend at the Frost game tonight!
I just learned that Northside Mutual Aid (supporting North Minneapolis families impacted by ICE) is still trying to meet $80,000 in rent needs from FEBRUARY.
Can we move some funds in their direction? 🌻
You can sing "stupid, evil motherfuckers" to the tune of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
ian is a trusted community member who is working so hard to coordinate meeting several high-priority rent needs tonight (just one of many such nights) — can you chip in or share? can you share with your out-of-MSP networks? it’s a huge help! 💕
Currently tearing my hair out because I adopted an urgent rent need for a family that needs to pay $3050 RIGHT MEOW to stay out of eviction court and then I got an urgent request from another rent fund and there’s $320 left in my Venmo account. So much need and I wish I could be everywhere at once 😭
To any Democrat who ever said about any issue, "Maybe if we agree with Republicans just this far, they'll stop there," remember that you were wrong, it was obvious at the time, and you really should never believe that again about any issue, ever.
It’s not just Medicaid funding they’re withholding to MN. It’s food assistance, child care assistance, social services, job training, safety testing, public health, disaster relief. SNAP. Free lunch for kids in school.
They hate us for loving our neighbors, and are collectively punishing us for it.
HEY, I AM DOING ANOTHER FUNDRAISER FOR MINNESOTA RENT FUNDS! AND GIVING AWAY ANOTHER SIGNED ARC (Advance Review Copy) OF OBSTETRIX!!!
YOU COULD GET TO READ IT EARLY (it doesn't come out until June) AND HELP MINNESOTA FAMILIES STAY HOUSED!!!!
*able, goddammit it. Edit button when?
I feel absolutely gutted for my fellow Bennies. Those women should be aboe to receive their education without fear of sexual violence.
It's a tragedy whenever and wherever it happens and my thoughts are with these young women.

Important thread on the impacts of protests.
I am SO happy to see people keep helping Bailey treat her cat’s cancer without losing her financial footing.
If you love cats & believe in mutual aid & have a bit of margin, consider adding your help to the cost of radiation therapy?
She has $1601 of $12000. She still needs $10,399.
Please read this 🧵
We need less than $300 to completely fund these two rent needs!
Can you chip in or share? 🌻
DID YOU KNOW?
If you have Delta Sky Miles, you can donate them to help a kidnapped-and-released person fly home!
They are set free on the streets of El Paso or another Texas town with no phone, no money, nothing at all. Your miles can get them back to their loved ones!
Alright folks, I’m back on my barnraising bullshit with @ziibiing.com and Stand With Minnesota. 🌻

Boosting for the evening crowd. A little over 1k to go on this GoFundMe for rent & bill assistance.
Working in coordination with standwithminnesota.com, I’m raising rent funds for Minneapolis immigrant families in need. We now have a $5000 match offer (!) and are going to help as many families as we can to stay housed today.

Thank you so much! 🌷
This whole article is GREAT
One of my absolute favorite bookshops sent out a newsletter saying they could really use some love. Once Upon a Crime is a killer shop and they have been demonstrating, observing, helping to collect mutual aid, you name it. Stop by or order online! onceuponacrimebooks.com
Thanks for reposting!
Boosting a GoFundMe for Paola's family. Her stepfather has been detained and she's the sole earner while her mom recovers from giving birth. The campaign has $1800 left to raise.
I found this campaign on the Stand with Minnesota page.

For the record, I'm fine with open borders. Especially if this is the alternative. Fuck this.
Heroes come in many forms and this is one of them
I didn't realize that Curl-Salemme *partnered* with FIERCE Athlete. Reposts/endorsements of their views would have been bad enough, but this is a whole other level. I'm incredibly disappointed in @thepwhl.com that they're tacitly standing by these trans exclusionary views.
For fuck's sake
I never met Kobe, but my spouse has been to their cafe. And of course I believe my friend that he's genuinely a good person - she even babysat for their little girl. No one deserves this.
