I was so sad when the nurses woke me up from that beautiful nap!

Not a complaint per se, but biking east on the south side of the Washington Ave bridge with the new higher fence is a trippy experience on a sunny morning as you rapidly move through bars of light and shade for the whole stretch. For me it’s like rapid flashes of blue and red lights.

Aw. My wife and I had our first date at French Meadow after meeting on a dating site (in 2007!). I had the vegan reuben & she though I didn't like her because I disliked all the movies & books she mentioned (just trying to show that I had my own opinions!). Fortunately, she gave me another chance.

She posted a video on Instagram about the accessibility mods they made for her including a lower workstation and the lower side table.

Skipping this ballot question is equivalent to a NO vote. PLEASE vote YES! It will cost taxpayers NOTHING to increase school funding, and do nothing to the state budget. Please read! voteyesmnstudents.org

Question 1: Were you looking at your phone when you drove into a hole? Question 2: How was it possible to drive into a hole without taking down any orange cones? (Or maybe they did?) Question 3: Were you trying to be clever by getting around other traffic and you wound up in a hole?

My neighborhood mutual aid is raising $4000 to pay the legal fees of a neighbor facing deportation. So far they’ve raised $2200. Just $1800 to go! (They’re using our neighborhood GFM to collect the money—the total shown reflects all the money we raised last winter) www.gofundme.com/f/aid-for-re...

When I say suffer, I don’t mean mild inconvenience. I mean suffer. It’s not simple when you’re faced with a real life situation where your ideology clashes with the literal safety of your child.

I’ve been off of here most of today because I don’t need to get my feelings hurt by people who don’t care to understand what we went through. Before I had a kid, I had ideologically pure ideas about how we would support MPS, but what they put our kid and our family through gave us truly no choice.

I’m never going to stop laughing about the visitor from Vermont who introduced himself and asked me my age (45) while we were watching fire dancers on the Greenway tonight. He was shocked and delighted that so many grown adults come out to events like this here! 😂

Afro deli catered lunch was a hit at the last event I planned. I've always wanted to use Lu's Sandwiches, but it's hard if you need gluten-free options.

That's new! The anonymous option was still available when I attended one of those 2 weeks ago. Absolutely floored that they thought it was a good talking point to highlight that most providers have options to set up payment plans.

Sucks that the Univ of Minnesota libraries are closed to the public. If the past several years have taught us anything, it’s that knowledge is necessary to fighting stupid bad fascists. So here’s a helpful doc on how to assist good U people who want knowledge freed: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Thank you for sharing this! I am one UMN Librarian who is very frustrated that our Libraries are no longer open -- I take a lot of pride in being a resource for the whole state.

In the continuing fallout from Metro Surge, I'm trying to help raise about $300 to get some new school clothes and supplies for a teenager whose father was deported. This kid has been devastated and done so much to help her mother and baby sister. My venmo is @Megan-Kocher-7

Look at this adorable loaf pan I got for like $10! (I realize it it deeply midwestern to shout about the great deal I got)

Really showing my age by belting out the lyrics to Phil Collins’ 1985 hit “One More Night” during the cooldown in Zumba class. Hadn’t thought of that song in decades, but the lyrics were deep within me.

I’m looking for recommendations for noise canceling headphones (ear bud or over ear) that autistic people find useful. Comfort is a big deal and let’s pretend price isn’t a variable. Bc I have no sensory issues with headphones it’s so hard for me to figure out what works for someone who does
