I don’t care about fancy jerk chefs opening new restaurants.

Baba’s Hummus House and the Himalayan Restaurant are two of this city’s best restaurant gems. They set the bar.

Such beautiful and perfect expressions of culture, family, and love we are all so lucky to experience. Right here in Mpls!

I also got those! I can’t remember what they were called years ago—but they also seem smaller. So almost like eating chips! 😂

I’m in my sleeve season. Meaning the season I accidentally eat a whole sleeve of thin mint Girl Scout cookies in one night.

Even the idea of just simply transferring all the things over is terrifying. Like driving a new car off the lot. Immediately you’ve introduced it to the melting snow grime and the boring drive home along suburban highways.

I bought a new computer at the end of Dec with a “refund” from my $18k furnace that I took out a loan for, and it is still sealed in the box because:

1. I’m afraid I will need the $

2. I want a full dedicated day to set it up perfectly—like I’m a shiny new factory robot with no outdated parts.

Learning there were words/categories for my repetitive behaviors—like echolalia and stimming—gave me such a newfound freedom for embracing them.

I do a hair bend/flip in fingers thing that is constant and so weird-looking, I am sure! My arm bent in a V to my head since I was a little kid! 😂

What do you mean by this. Both what "unaccompanied" means and in the growth and what it is attributed to.

Every day I have a tune that are can't stop singing in my head or randomly out loud—like a verbal tic—and sometimes one embeds in me for days, like this lyrical parasite that refuses to leave me. I am singing right now. And right now. And right now.

Me: The helicopters. The drones. I think they’re taunting me.

Concerned Therapist: …What do you mean?….Where do you see these…helicopters?… Why would they be… targeting you?

Me: Well… because I have a tarp on my roof that says F*ck MPD and the Surveillance State?

Concerned Therapist: 👀😵‍💫

Daniel Suitor is live-skeeting or ICE-skating, whatever we call this coverage of Federal Judge Jeffrey Brian’s contempt of court hearing, and we’re all gonna wanna follow.

But as I stood side by side with protesters on the streets of Minneapolis and opposite dozens of armed Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents at the Whipple Federal Building after Renee Good's killing - and again after the killing of Alex Pretti - I couldn't help but question whether I made the right call last year.

Mayor Jacob Frey moves after buying house in southwest Minneapolis Frey and his wife, Sarah Clarke, have said they would likely move to a house after having their second child.

Better headline: Jacob finally goes home

Flannery on the right is the correct answer. This gentle giant just wants to love you and make you happy. He’s patient, a good listener, and loved quiet evenings on the couch.

Does require picking up his shit in a bag.

Who would you rather date and why

At the Rocky Horror Picture Show in Minneapolis, they’re throwing out ICE whistles shaped like dicks.

Notice no mention of Israel.

CM Chavez has been a good ally for lots of folks in Minneapolis. Way before ICE invaded us, he was showing up trying to intervene and get answers and resources for unhoused neighbors. Can you help take care of his family's need? He's been Out There doing the work for years.

I am not sure how “distraction from the Epstein files” became such a common refrain for anything this administration does. Everything they do is strategic, intentional harm for its own sake. The “distraction” from one thing to another is just collateral damage.

Do you think they know I’m onto them…

And then further stating it is thr “official title” and the digital team “opted to leave” this incorrect title and again insisting that I must be “confused.” 🥴

Can you imagine being… me…and still being annoyed by this? 😅

Almost a year later and I’m still annoyed by a large news outlet insisting that calling Joe Thompson, the then-U.S. Attorney for the District of Minnesota, the “Minnesota US Attorney General” is correct.

Thank you, AuDHD, which is shorthand for AutoDisputations. Journalists say.

Aw, man… that is the most deeply human part of all of us. Being hit with the idea of mortality—or losing someone you love—it unravels everything in you and exposes the rawest parts of ourselves. And also so much love we are conditioned to bury.

My dogs are actually performance artists, always finding new ways to mock me and my existence. The brutal duality in this one hits at a whole new level. They’ve made themselves *into me*. They’re pushing boundaries in both context and medium. I’m so proud of them. ☺️

The concept of a “lethal dose” comes from toxicology, not policing. But its use by law enforcement accelerated around 2017, when the DEA adopted the 2-milligram "lethal dose" benchmark and began translating seizures into “potentially lethal doses” to support their "human-impact" narrative agenda.

Headlines should reflect verifiable facts, not law-enforcement framing. For example:

“Federal agents seize 7 kilograms of fentanyl in Minneapolis”

“12 charged in Minneapolis fentanyl trafficking case”

Or, with attribution of the claim: "Officials say fentanyl seizure equals 3.5M lethal doses."

Fentanyl and opioids are god-awful drugs that have killed people I love. There is no denying the destruction the Sackler family and Purdue have caused in our communities.

But this is about how institutional law enforcement rhetoric so easily become headlines that shape public undestanding/

Law enforcement-generated headlines are not accidental. Decades of media research show crime framing directly influences: 1. Public support for law-enforcement expansion
2. Perceived crime severity independent of actual crime rates 3. Tolerance for surveillance and enforcement measures.

Feds arrest 12 people linked to 'Family Mob' in Minneapolis, remove 3.5M doses of fentanyl Twelve members of the "Family Mob" gang are now in custody after a massive drug bust in the Twin Cities where the FBI and local authorities seized 3.5 million lethal doses of fentanyl, methamphetamine...

Headlines matter. Take this one, for instance. Why wouldn’t they use “7 million safe doses” instead? (JK.) But it’s important to note that this headline draws directly from the FBI press-release language—showing how institutional framing moves into news headlines with little or no transformation.
