IT'S NOT TO LATE TO HELP MINNESOTA FAMILIES AND BE ENTERED IN A DRAWING FOR ONE OF ***FOUR*** BOOKS!

I probably should have said a time zone for "5 pm today" but obviously I mean Minnesota's

My Heart Bleeds Purple When your body is frail and can’t carry you further, remember: art is resistance, too.

Do what you can for Minneapolis. πŸ’œ

Whatever your capacity, offer resistance. You don’t have to be out in the streets (and don’t let anyone tell you otherwise), but you can resist. Progressives cities need a lot of help right now β€” not just MN β€” and every bit helps.

It’s been a long weird few months in the Twin Cities, so I’ve been quiet. I’m doing ok, staying safe, protecting my communities. Thanks for all the new follows.

"A Tale of Two Topas" may be one of the best-written episodes of a serial ever written. It's so good.

Dr. Seuss would be disgusted by the new Wal*Mart commercial. I hate capitalism.

I propose November 1st as resurgence day. Halloween ends, and we all pick up the phones again. MasterCard and Visa, bare minimum, once per day. Every day. All of us. They are only hiring the usual number of holiday workers, this would frighten credit card companies. β€œIt’s not going away”

Y'all want help fight fascists? Support public journalism (y'know, the kind the government keeps defunding).

a man with curly hair and glasses is making a funny face and saying huh . Alt: Steve Brule is making a funny face and looking at the camera and saying "huh?".

Centrists when they hear a Socialist advocating for a thing that does not directly benefit them but does materially benefit the majority of people:

In small town Wisconsin, we had a teacher who it was said (later proved in court) was being directly profiled and stalked by he police.

He was black (Tortugan) married to a white teacher. As high schoolers most thought it was β€œover-reacting.” He was a loud, mouthy leftist.

Everything the mainstream media considers a "radical left-wing belief" is a compromise position. The actual radical beliefs are things we can't discuss because they're too far outside the Overton Window for most people to understand.

"Among those arrested was David, a 31-year-old healthcare worker...David, who is gay, was wearing a rainbow Pride wristband as he says he was simply trying to pee when he was arrested."

There's a difference between isolationism and simply saying that we need more competent leaders to run things while we sit back and participate in the global conversation.

I've come up with a new online insult, and I'm waiting for the day someone figures out how devastating it is.

Just respond to someone who's being obtuse or intentionally obstinate with "Ok, Fitzgerald."

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. πŸ€·πŸΏβ€β™‚οΈ
