idk, some guy

Oh cool, it's an "Excel is going to make me cry" kind of day.

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Divestment activists claim win as Minnesota board sheds most Israel bonds Minnesota’s State Board of Investment has sold nearly all its Israel bonds, a move Boycott, Divest and Sanction activists call a major victory after years of pushing for divestment.

The Minnesota Board of Investment has divested 96% of its Israel bonds. Honestly, what this represents is the dedication of the BDS movement and the understanding that if you hyperfocus on one thing you can get shit done.

if you ever randomly get the urge to donate to the democratic party, feel free to venmo that money to me or another trans person instead - we'll make sure it doesn't get used to take away people's healthcare

The view northward from the bus stop at 31st & Lyndale. The sidewalk trees are all strung with white or yellow lights all aglow. There are dead leaves on the sidewalk and the lights are reflected prettily on the dark car parked at the curb.

Had a moment waiting for the bus tonight - Lyndale is all lit up for the holidays and I felt like that scene where the Grinch's heart grows three sizes.

To be clear - I still don't fuck with christmas. But the lights are real pretty.

Once again, I am thinking about the Morris Day-narrated documentary about '80s WWF wrestler Koko B. Ware that sits in Prince's vault, unreleased and taunting us all.

Turns out I fucking love moving heavy things with @tmdub.bsky.social

Tbh the fact it took 3 weeks for it to happen is a bit of a surprise.

When you fold with no concessions less than a week after voters delivered blowout victories for your party, what conclusion do you expect us to draw?

Zohran sign but it reads Sorry MA Forgot to Take Out the Trash

He stopped letting the shirt win!

Mamdani is going to implement Sha Na Na Law. Everyone is going to Get A Job.

Stepped outside just after 5:30 this morning & heard the call to prayer from a nearby masjid.

Pretty fuckin neat tbh.

I really like my new neighborhood.

“Did you grab a Prince library card?”

“I sleep in a big bed with my laser-eyed Loon library card.”

DANG

Decent people are finding creative ways to fight the power.

THE TERRORISM HAPPENING HERE ISN’T BEING REPORTED OUTSIDE OF CHICAGO

Utterly bizarre to stand at the corner of Lake and Blaisdell looking at a KFC and no fucking Kmart.

a chance to stock up on all your revolutionary literature!

of course, they've got lots of great books about labor politics, and bc my grandfathers were miners, I'm eyeing a couple on the struggles of coal miners

YouTube video by Malört and Savior Malört & Savior - Rathole (Lyric Video)

Also, the song title.

Just came across a band called Malört & Savior and the music is as good as the name.

If George Floyd's life and death kinda sorta mattered, Amir Locke's life sure the fuck did not matter to the voters of this city. That is abysmal when you think of it.

This just made me cry

I was mugging for the camera but also yes - so fucking happy.

Blurry nighttime photo of me on my bike. My mouth is wide open, face radiating joy.

Rode my bike tonight. I hadn't exactly forgotten how good it feels, but it had been a long time.

A Venmo transaction for $25 to Sanctuary Supply Depot with “Fuck Frey” in the memo

I’m not a betting woman, but if I were I’d bet that the big strong mayor is going to celebrate his win by being a dick to unhoused people. Please join me (if you’re able) in donating to the good folks at @supplydepotmpls.bsky.social so they can help our neighbors.
