Something that’s struck me living in a perennial Blue State is we’ve never had feral 21st-century Red State federal governance (2016 term was awful but OG GOP still there). Yet, watching Bondi, Noem, etc. faceplant, I realized they‘ve never governed outside a Red Bubble & can’t handle the heat.

When this is all over, we’re going to be left figuring out how to put our state back together again.
A suggestion for your Friday: this comp has songs from 110 Minnesota artists. Your $20 donation goes directly to mutual aid in the Twin Cites

I first noticed the signs at a show the first week of January but over past Spruce Tree, I was parked in the proper side with everyone else, didn’t think much of it until people started getting tickets during Turf shows so I knew to check always since.

Whenever possible, I like to remind others (and myself) that this isn't just a Twin Cities thing.

Was just thinking about Battles, looked up "Atlas" and realized it came out nearly 20 years ago. 🫠 Hard to overstate how absolutely hard this song went live during that era. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpGp...
