i led a partnership with 1p at my last job as they were building out their developer tools (~4 years ago?). easily one of the most rewarding moments of my career. it’s been tough to root for them for a few years now but i’m gutted by this. sigh.

i've been doing convention data for DFL campaigns for 8+ years and i need y'all to understand that maddie is one of the sharpest political data minds in MN. these frey guys love to wail that the "math ain't mathing" when in reality the numbers were never on their side (also they're bad at math)

totally, and i'm not ruling out the possibility that these newcomers are simply recycling a bad faith talking point they received from someone else (e.g., the folks @taylr.bsky.social mentions below)

totally, i'm sure a lot of lydia's older supporters are proudly anti-progressive and anti-aisha. i was just shocked by the number of young folks **in lydia t-shirts** that had done so little homework.

here's how i'd classify ~40% of the lydia supporters in 10-7: - under 35 - first-time caucus goers - led to believe that aisha is the status quo candidate - no opinions on the aisha other than some lydia talking points (see quote below) a single phone call from aisha's campaign could sway them imo

really hoping that @metrotransitmn.bsky.social expands upon this partnership. imagine being a transit rider in the twin cities and being able to purchase fares via an app that isn't trash!

very excited about this. as someone that works in tech and despises surveillance capitalism, @transit.app has always been intriguing to me b/c it's one of the few good free apps out there where the more you engage with it, the better the transit experience is for you and your neighbors.

lol digging through his old tweets and lo and behold:
A tweet by @aswarformayor (Aswar Rahman) from August 6, 2017. Aswar is pictured holding a plastic water bottle in front of a large truck that has an American flag and hundreds of water bottles.A reply tweet by @kanadgupta of a City of Minneapolis drinking fountain. Above the fountain is a sign that says "You bought bottled water and spent WHAT? Minneapolis tap water costs less than a half cent a gallon."

ok if we're talking hilarious 2017 minneapolis mayoral campaigns, it is important that aswar rahman and his giant truck of plastic water bottles are a part of this conversation

the page appears to be responding with a 500 so that'd be my guess!

obsessed with the idea of a media bias analyst reading a damning investigative piece on minneapolis police use of force and another on snowplow naming contest submissions and thinking "yes yes these are the same"

i got interviewed by the nyt for a tweet that took exactly one (1) braincell to write
This is a screenshot of a tweet by @kanadgupta. The tweet says: "for your humble consideration: 'abolish ice'". The tweet is quoting a tweet by @MnDOT (the Minnesota Department of Transportation) that is asking users to submit ideas for a snowplow naming competition.
