I don't wanna COUCH my words here: I know JD Vance, his eyeliner, and absent Ashley Moody are used to running away from people when things get tough because they care more about themselves and their billionaire buddies than the people they represent. But this is my home. /1

As feared/suspected, my student loan payment is doubling starting next month. The spread between that payment and my mortgage will be very thin. Going to cling onto my 2.99% mortgage rate for dear life.

Was lucky to snag tickets to see Sara Bareilles last night and it was just incredible but extremely emotional. One of the best things I’ve ever experienced live. She is just beyond talented and that voice is something else.

MN came in 5th. So much for the narrative that we are anti-business and scare away growth with our whacky policies and taxes.

I have to go 2 weeks without lifting 10lbs or working out 😫 but apparently I could do light running except that I fucking hate running. The only time I ever want to run is if it’s literally a life or death type of deal.

Can’t wait for this! Also, can some local billionaire or multi millionaire splash some money around and pay for the new park to get built? Given all our fiscal issues, I’m worried that that parcel is going to be dirt for years.

AP NORC: Trump approval at 31 points. A majority of Americans, 51%, *strongly disapprove*. AFAIK, strong disapproval crushing overall approval by 20 points is unprecedented. There is no political downside to opposing authoritarianism.

Latest WSJ poll: "63% want to pause AI development 61% want a billionaire wealth tax 59% want Medicare for All 57% want a $20 minimum wage 58% want to end U.S. military aid to Israel" This is the center of the country politically. it is time all adjust to this political spectrum, esp. media.

Meanwhile, CM Shaffer wrote an op ed in the Minneapolis Times saying we need to cut $25 million more, didn’t say what we should cut, and then proceeded to complain about how city council meetings are often awful (news flash: we knew that already)

Oh, there will definitely be robots killing people. That is not far fetched. We already have drones with weapons. We all see how far human-looking robots have come. We know every police department will force them on us, and the military will want them too.

My idea for the French Meadow and CC Club starts with a bulldozer and ends with a lot of housing and ground level retail. But that’s just me and I don’t have the ability to buy it.

I’m not going to read this trash but I’m assuming the author didn’t look at any polling. It shouldn’t be surprising if you talk to anyone with young children, but universal day care/day care subsidies is popular and there’s bipartisan support among the electorate.

Many people who were critical of MPD cost overruns were denounced as alarmist or anti-police. Now MPD has admitted to the abuse of overtime hours. I am grateful current leadership is cracking down but deeply frustrated by this betrayal of the public trust and the time it took to get answers.

They are so shameless. Also, the generic attributes here are highlighted as something special? Be for real - any serious presidential contender knows how to win, fight and message. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t have the resume to even be considered.

I have complicated thoughts about AI. But I know one thing - if you want to work for a big company and have an email/meeting type job, the expectation is very much “get on board or get left behind”. If that’s not for you, that’s fine. But that’s where we are.

Oh, Danni. "That's a jammy jam!" "Stay put honey!" I love to see my community (annoying people) represented on Bake Off. Representation matters. Could not have said it better than @ariadnereviews.bsky.social (& will be using this jpeg a lot too): ariadnereviews.com/2026/09/25/b...
but MY GOD, if it isn’t a good time! When I look into their eyes I see a glimpse of Ye Olde Bake Off, a time before the option of being a baking influencer or aspirations of a cook book were a thing, they’re operating on vibes and a level of eccentricity usually only reserved for people who run private zoos on the grounds of their stately home. And the girls that get it get it and the girls that don’t never will.

Our mayor and some friendly CMs will spend more time and effort on removing transit from Nicollet and courting data centers than enabling this underused area to be turned into an urban, mixed use neighborhood

At first you think they’re just hyping Judy up with that “beast mode”. Then you see her lifts and realize they’re underselling it. Small, thick, and mighty for the win, every time.

Rahm Emanuel, who has about a good a chance of being president as I do, has been profiled like 9 times in the last couple months in major newspapers. It really shows you how profoundly out of touch the people are that drive much of our national political discourse.

Hey, who remembers that time that Arnold Schwarzenegger said that nazis and confederates were losers, and that if you support them, then you are a loser too? And then half of the GOP turned against him and said "Don't call me a loser?"🤡 And so Arnold told them again, louder this time? I remember!

Everything I’m reading about aging and health points to eating beans all the time. Every meal should have beans. Snacks should be beans. It’s all about the bean.

Sure seems like they are risking lower rural turnout if they try to distance themselves from Trump. It’s a desperate move that could easily backfire.

Received an update about The Loma construction, which started earlier this month at 33rd and Nicollet. They are hoping to complete construction by Oct ‘27. 13 month build. Plans still include an African restraurant on the ground level. Looking forward to more good food options in the neighborhood.

They still haven’t figured out the basics of how insurance works. And they still don’t have a real healthcare plan of their own. They want people to die.

A post that’s so eye-opening because this is exactly what liberals will say is GOP distraction tactics, almost as a parody— and here it really is what Gaetz is saying unironically as his GOP message.

We have our answer on what actually happened with the woman and the dog and the bat in Minneapolis. www.startribune.com/bat-rabies-m...
A bat found in downtown Minneapolis last week tested positive for rabies - and on Monday, health officials said they identified the woman who may have handled it.
The Minnesota Department of Health had posted public notices seeking her so she could get a rabies assessment.
The woman was walking her dog around noon on Sept. 15 and noticed a bat on the sidewalk on Hennepin Avenue between N. Washington Avenue and N. 3rd Street. According to the Health Department, she picked up the bat with a plastic bag and gave it to a passing couple who offered to take the bat to a wildlife rehabilitation center in Roseville.
The bat died shortly after arriving at the rehab facility, and its rabies test came back positive on Friday.

Voters can be weird and fickle. But there’s also been points in our political history that cause people to shift their political orientation in a way that’s enduring. We might be going through one of those now.

I find it interesting people want to use Waymo so they never have to talk to a driver. I 100% guarantee you that in-ride ads will be coming. So you’ll listen to ads most of the ride, unless, of course, you pay more to disable them.

Martiya, a new restaurant owned by the Afro Deli, looks close to completion at 3030 Nicollet. The sign is up and looks really nice, along with the interior. Looks upscale yet cozy at the same time. Very excited to see what the menu will be like.
