Who knew Douglas Adams made up drug names as a side gig

Normies Say ¡Chinga la migra! @midwestprimonotemo.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

I am utterly in thrall of these drug names. Unfortunately not available in the US. I desperately want to prescribe Maxtra Gargle or Tantum Verde to someone.

Wikipedia entry screen shot: Benzydamine (also known as Tantum
Verde and branded in some countries as
Maxtra Gargle, Difflam and Septabene), available as the hydrochloride salt, is a locally acting nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)

We can’t just move past what SCOTUS has permitted this Administration to do to people who have lived and worked in the U.S. for years and even decades.

Sure, Andy, most workaday line prosecutors work for both parties. But Folk wound up being a ranking prosecutor. And his track record is clear: he jumps into DOJ under Republicans and nopes out under Democrats. We don't have to pretend that EVERY DOJ attorney is nonpolitical

Former U.S. Attorney for Minnesota Andy Luger, a Democratic appointee, is supporting Folk. He said any attempt to tie Folk’s career to Trump is “utterly ludicrous.”

Luger said when he was leading Minnesota’s office, Folk was in Washington D.C. briefing attorneys in the Biden Administration on “high-level policy.” Luger said federal prosecutors commonly work for administrations from both parties and voters should put more emphasis on Folk’s prosecutorial history than any administration he worked under.

Getting reports of bad election ideas in Signal groups. Defend democracy by shooting these down. No, you can’t show up at a precinct & be a challenger/observer. Those must be appointed by a party, nonpartisan campaign or ballot initiative. Letter must be accepted by officials. No letter, out you go.

This one too. Like, dear God Lake Harriet parents you’re just going to opt out of MPS because your kids go to Armatage? Huh? What is wrong with you? What are we doing here?

Harriet Lower Elementary: "We surveyed over 1,000 parents from every single school in the district. We are hearing loud and clear that without community buy-in, this plan will lead to enrollment loss, enrollment loss that has been grossly underestimated by district leadersạẠỊ

We need to think of education as a community resource, a common public good, in which the goal is make sure every kid gets a good enough education, as opposed to a system where parents are supposed to get “what’s best” for their own kids. That fucks the system.

Normies Say ¡Chinga la migra! @midwestprimonotemo.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

In a system in which parents with the means and the wherewithal to ship their kids to any school they want, parents doing “what’s best for their kids” actually worsens overall outcomes because they drain resources away from MPS. Doing what is best for your kids worsens public education for everyone

People have legit said if Kenny is closed they will leave MPS. Like, WTF? Kids in the Kenny area will go to excellent nearby schools! Honestly it’s this consumerist idea that parents get to shop around for the “best” education for their kids that is killing MPS, not the closure of a a few schools.

Normies Say ¡Chinga la migra! @midwestprimonotemo.bsky.social · 03/10/2026

I find this rhetoric utterly deranged. Kenny kids would go to Armatage or Windom. Both excellent schools essentially in the same neighborhood about a mile away. Our city’s kids have recently had a genuine assault on their security and this ain’t it.

assistant at Kenny Elementary School: "The proposed closure of 16 schools is an assault on our students' sense of security. It is an affront to each one of us as educators, and it is a destabilizing threat to every community and neighborhood in our city."

It's just after 1pm on another picture perfect fall day in Chicago. So far today, masked federal agents have taken people from Brighton Park and suburban Aurora. ~1 year after the "Blitz" began, the alerts haven't subsided. ICE is still breaking windows and destroying worlds.

The government moving or hiding jailed people to avoid review by courts isn't some loophole in our habeas corpus rights. This government behavior has been considered a violation of the people's habeas corpus rights since at least the Habeas Corpus Act of 1679. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habeas_...

Jailors were forbidden to move prisoners from one prison to another or out of the country to evade the writ. In case of disobedience jailers would be punished with severe fines which had to be paid to the prisoner.[5][6]

The Uptown neighborhood in Minneapolis is struggling with many commercial storefronts empty. BUT: the empty ones are mostly large, recent build/modern store fronts that were intended for premium retail (eg North Face store etc). The run down old stock smaller storefronts are mostly full!

Whole unschooling thing just smacks of people washing their hands of our societal wide moral obligation to make sure *every* kid gets a decent education. People from poor neighborhoods spending $ they barely have on driving their kids to suburban schools aren’t celebrating “unschooling”!

Many people including liberals treat educating their children as a zero sum game where their only obligation is to maximize their kids’ educational advantage, as opposed to thinking of education as a public, social good where the goal is to a decent education for everyone.

Everyone who was against the PATRIOT Act 20 years ago was called a terrorist sympathizer. Many don’t remember the world before it. Background checks didnt even exist the way they do now prior to it. The surveillance state became normal. Just like they said it would All in the name of “anti-terror”

After 9/11, the U.S. built an anti-terror apparatus. Trump is using it at home.
Waning attention to international terrorism and other threats has former officials worried.
