I’m having an am I getting gaslit at city hall and the media market right now moment? Because the mayor, some colleagues, and the strib are making seem like everyone and their momma wants to see Waymo’s and cybercabs driving around Minneapolis powered by AI. Replies on this thread say otherwise.

its genuinely crazy how much this country normalizes and rewards violence against women. seeing the news cycle for what it is recently and knowing the federal government is run by pedophiles and rapists.... survivors are not doing well. check on your friends.

it's never too late to delete your meta accounts! wife and I deleted this past January for... reasons; and while its sometimes annoying to not be on IG, I really don't miss it at all It was hard severing the connection to some old friends, but its not like we were talking often anyway

Renee Good should be alive today. She was our neighbor, out observing federal agents & looking out for the people around her. I'm holding her family close as they file suit seeking the accountability that federal officials have refused to give them. 1/

Her killing shook every corner of the Southside, especially the immigrant families who already knew this fear too well. We won't forget her, and we won't stop fighting for her. Caring for your immigrant neighbors should never cost you your life. Abolish ICE. 2/

This isnt that far off but I had lots of issues with this quiz. The qs make a lot of assumptions in their answer choices, esp around Globalism and Free Trade things that in my politic need to look radically different than what the choices allowed for ++ you can't give a lawyer a "it depends" option
My result from 12 axes political compass quiz was Eco-Socialism with most compatible Philosopher Andre Gorz

there’s a very stupid piece of gaming memorabilia in an online auction that I really want. It’s way under what it would normally sell for (like $40 with shipping) I have no need or use for it. It’s just kind of dumb and nerdy and i can’t stop thinking about it

Anti-trans ads are popping up everywhere and it's important that we remind people that these attacks are happening because opponents of equality don't have answers to the issues facing most Americans - they are trying to move votes through fear and misinformation instead. Don't take the bait.

None of these individually will turn back the tide today - we are swimming upstream against billionaires and a tidal wave of bad narratives - but the work that happens now *will* matter and will shorten the distance between today and a better future for all of us. Get in the work.

9. Make sure the young people in your life know that you are a safe person for them, for their friends, and that you are there for them no matter who they are or who they love. 10. Share the wins. Lift up the stories where we *are* winning on trans rights and issues (and we are)!

7. If you are a journalist, a content creator, someone who puts together panels/committees/boards/etc. think about how you can bring in trans voices and leaders to your spaces and work - not just on trans "issues." 8. Mentor and support trans people to *be* leaders - not just on trans "issues."

4. Talk to your family members, close friends, or colleagues - people who know and trust you about how *you* reached a place of support on trans rights. 5. Go and buy some art (in any medium) made by trans creators and creatives. 6. Tell a trans person in your life why they matter to you.

1. If you personally can, give to trans orgs, trans journalists, and trans mutual aid. 2. Write a note to a local foundation or funder in your area and ask them to invest in trans leaders and trans work. 3. Thank and celebrate candidates and electeds who affirmatively support trans rights.

We can spend the next decade or more stuck in a loop debating the trans "issues" every election cycle; or we can listen to trans leaders and do the work to win now. The question is not *if* we will win, but when. And all of us can do something. Here are 10 real and tangible actions you can take:

The City Council has been speaking publicly on reigning in on MPD. I know CP Payne has made it clear that this is a priority. Additionally, this week I brought an action to increase rental license fees for cost recovery. I hope you support our residents and don’t force us to cut more services.

Jokes aside, the city and MPRB failed to come to agreement. I’ve been consistent in my perspective that city residents deserve a commitment from the Mayor and Council about how they will rein in MPD overspending, improve non-tax revenue, and protect bond ratings. So far, no tangible offers.

We must contend with the reality that without meaningful reform to the MPD and the needed financial oversight of the department, we will continue to see budget shortfalls and property taxes will continue to go up as a result.

Another parallel to how oil execs have long known how their practices contribute to destruction of climate & the future of the planet. There's a lot of energy railing against ai & data centers lately that could benefit from also facing the predecessor that is the fossil fuel industry. Same fight.

Reminder: It's ALWAYS a good day to give to @outfrontmn.bsky.social , who are Minnesota's largest LGBTQIA+ advocacy org. They need funding in order to face everything ahead of us all—regardless of elections/ political climate. Funds are tough to generate when work is accumulating & needs to expand.

Also FWIW I wrote about this way back in 2022 after the Dobbs decision leaked.. I want to share it because although my writing style and voice have changed and grown -- a lot of the points I made then stand still today (don't follow me on substack, I've left the platform)

My last couple posts have been about this and its gotten some traction so I want to expand the thought. No one is coming to save us. Not some secret cabal of military leaders, not the courts, not the international community, and esp not the Dems It is to us to design something new & different

Roe, Jan 6, Climate Change, Ongoing wars, Disaster Relief, Housing Crisis, 2 different recessions, student loan debt all issues that came across Dem laps with the government under their control at 1 point or another, and I have never seen them do anything that I would fix/repair or meet the moment

A friend asked me about the midterms, I said, I do think the Dems will win the midterms generally and are likely to take control of Congress She asked, “what do you think they’ll do? expand the Court?” I said, “Same thing they did with Roe. I don’t think they will do anything meaningful at all”
