Effin spooky 🦇

Hey folks, MN Truth Commission is doing a listening event at Stewart Park tonight, 6:00-7:30.

🚨🚨 VERY IMPORTANT AWOO NOTICE. IF YOU HEAR AWOOS TODAY, THEY ARE REAL 🚨🚨

thank you mary moriarty! right wing agitators will not stop targeting minnesota, and this is why it is important we elect a successor who we can trust will continue to prosecute trump's foot soldiers. vote for cedrick frazier! anders folk is a partner at jones day, one of trump's favorite law firms

Sexual violence can haunt victims for a lifetime—especially when there is injustice. Dolores Huerta taught all of us that it’s never too late to make it right. A beautiful, transformative contribution at the end of a life dedicated to making the world a better place.

Hennepin County Attorney is charging Cam Higby and James O'Keefe with unlawful voting and identity theft over their stunt in the Minnesota Primary where they represented themselves as specific voters in a precinct in order to "test" the vouching system. lol. lmao even.

Thank you to everyone who came out to Sabathani last night for our Meet the Candidates School Board Forum! It was pleasure having everyone in the room and on zoom as we discussed the future of Minneapolis Public Schools.

two toxic strands of bsky discourse intertwining here -a version of "yet you participate in society" where any engagement with a field implies uncritical support for it -the "attack your side" tactic where you yell at the smart football lady on bsky, not the league, because she might listen to you

She fought for us. She fought for her community. She fought for survivors. We love you, Dolores Huerta. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

I just really hope someone is using their graduate degree to help archive the feminist internet of the 2010s because I wouldn't have pursued my job or my life had I not had it as a younger person, and present and future feminists need to be able access it

Once Upon a Time in Harlem, a new documentary that uses footage shot at a 1972 party in Duke Ellington's apartment attended by the surviving members of The Harlem Renaissance, some of whom hadn’t seen each other in 50 years. Looks amazing. [kottke.org]

*1400* kids missing from school between Minneapolis and St Paul this year. This is heartbreaking.

I just looked at my informed delivery email and it looks like we’re gonna get a “Michele Tafoya is too liberal” postcard in the mail???

Hennepin in Uptown

Make no mistake, we will always have @ilhanmn.bsky.social’s back.

Following the Brazilian role model (where a huge whatsapp group of 10 million users asked ppl to do this), French social media users are being encouraged to block Far Right accounts and never engage with them Video with context In french here: www.instagram.com/reel/DfASR-e...

The Minneapolis City Council is adding another way for community members to make their voices heard during the budget process. The City Council will host two informal listening sessions for residents to provide feedback on the Mayor’s 2027 recommended budget.

Hey Northeast Minneapolis! Right now Prospect Park, the University, Marcy Holmes, and Cedar Riverside are ahead of you in the vote count. Fix this! Get thee to 980 East Hennepin via bike, bus, foot, car, or other conveyance and exercise your right to vote. vote.minneapolismn.gov/voters/vote-...

Thursday is a paid holiday. Because Flavor Flav said so.

Join us this Sunday in Northeast Minneapolis for GOTV! We have fresh union printed @seanlimmn.bsky.social sample ballots, and our beloved congresswoman @ilhanmn.bsky.social will be joining us. 🤌🤌 Sign up to doorknock with SD60 DFL this Sunday, November 1 @ 1pm : www.mobilize.us/keithellison...

Happening tonight at Sabathani! We will have lawn signs available as well!

A year of campaigning… And just 7 days left! Vote now through Nov 3rd. Let’s do this. ZackforMN.com #minnesota #election #vote #localmatters

We are proud to have Representative Cedrick Frazier represent the DFL on the ballot this year for Hennepin County Attorney. He is the only DFL-endorsed candidate in this race, and we encourage all Hennepin County DFLers to vote for him on or before November 3rd!

Much of what @nerd4cities.bsky.social is praising is the Hennepin design. So it's important to remember Frey's first instinct after becoming strong mayor was to appoint a public works director (Kelliher) who wanted to kill the Hennepin Ave bike lane. We had to fight to keep it in the plan.

"The site has become a perfect storm – land never intended for human habitation has become a home for people who say they have no place else to go." (story is really well done!) www.minnpost.com/community-he...

everyone I know has been channeling their trauma from January into continued action, incl voting, and I hope the DFL understands we want heads on pikes

🧵 Minneapolis early voting thru Monday. 7 full early voting days to go, but precincts in blue at/above 2022 *total* early vote. Orange = below ‘22’s total , but again, full week to go. Only 1 precinct (7-10 in Stevens Square) is below 70% of ‘22. Pace seems certain to smash 2018 midterm record (52k)

I took exactly one photo the whole night and it’s perfect.

Hey y’all 💗 Thanks to your kindness, we've made progress, but we’ve had to reopen our GoFundMe. We still owe UPS about $40,000. If you can donate or share our story, it would mean so much. Thank you for your continued support! gofund.me/c55f7fe89

"The rich are only defeated when running for their lives." - CLR James, The Black Jacobins

Can we stop calling them "prediction markets" and call them what they are, which is betting/gambling platforms? My teeth itch every time someone says they're "trading" on one of those things. Betting. What you're doing is called betting or gambling, Kevin.

this man is a gotdamned patriot

i don't think anyone should run explicitly on banning online gambling but i do think that a democratic-led government should just quietly take steps to undermine the industry and create an inhospitable regulatory environment

Expanding the court is the moderate centrist position
