It's been a little surreal reading posts from around the country praising the Minneapolis Police Department for standing up to ICE and saying more police departments should be like the MPD.

Fun Fact:
If you live in the 7-county Twin Cities metro, chances are the jurisdictions you live in have, since 2020, recommended STATEWIDE RENT CONTROL and JUST CAUSE EVICTION PROTECTIONS as goals/strategies to address impediments to Fair Housing choice:

In 2025, running was the dominant activity, walking increased and evidence suggests Gen Z’s increased interest influenced both, according to a year-end analysis of data by Strava.

Change just one letter in "mihra" and you get "migra."
There's no coincidence here. Right?
Hey mihra, what should landlords do when immigration enforcement demands entry to a rental unit without a warrant?

The Minnesota Multihousing Association has the time & resources to adopt an AI assistant (www.mmha.com/mihra) to provide incorrect legal answers...but apparently it's a challenge for them to put out a statement about best practices when dealing with immigration enforcement in/around rental housing.

The idea of framing this vainglorious billionaire lot as modern day versions of the gritty, hard-bitten, working class, manual laborers who, for a pittance of wages, risked their lives and used their hands to make real the skyscraper dreams of the wealthy and middle classes is….lunacy.
I guess it's fitting that it's a reimagined, worse version of someone else's artwork

I observed this today in an office building. Is TP at drinking fountains a regular thing? If so, do you review, or is there a separate reviewer for drinking fountains (+ related accessories)? @twincitiestoiletpaperreviews.com

I'm not great at working from home—too many distractions. But today I channeled it into a full cleaning & descaling of my Moccamaster. Tomorrow morning's coffee is gonna be amazing.

Why has my CM, @ward4.minneapolismn.gov not said anything about ICE/HSI patrolling our streets yet?

She posted on FB yesterday about how wonderful it is watching snow fall downtown yesterday; guess it's fine as long as you don't watch your constituents abducted.

A Minneapolis woman & American citizen was arrested early Tuesday after confronting ICE officers over arrests of three neighbors in north Minneapolis. She appears to be the first observer arrested by ICE since it launched an immigration surge in the Twin Cities.

The Met Council also operates the largest Housing Choice (aka Section 8) Voucher program in the state.

How many of the commissioners have relied on subsidized housing to afford their home either now or in the past?

Yet again, MPRB's poor plowing on the northside results in snowmobiles driving on the trails. MPRB also simply does not plow the trails closest to the river, which are the most scenic.

Do trails in south Minneapolis look like this?
