okay I'm making an announcement to my MN friends: you get to post about Other Stuff still. It doesn't mean you're not still doing all the stuff we're all doing out there, it doesn't mean you've checked out. It's no one's job to perform horror and misery all day online. You don't owe this space that

you see it on these desk shows now and then when one person's role is to have done the homework and know things and make a coherent argument that anticipates responses, and it's another person's role to just not listen to any of that and bleat in opposition

“Anecdotes” against rental assistance lol. Holding up a sock puppet and making it say “I LOVE paying rent!”
Council Member Vetaw argues against rental assistance money with anecdotes. Says she's heard from people who applied and weren't approved. Some of the most vulnerable people. Sounds like her argument is the money just disappears into a black hole and doesn't help people.

This morning at the Minnesota State Capitol.
An ice sculpture that reads "PROSECUTE ICE". I'm told the organization behind the sculpture is Common Defense.

After 6am this morning in Whittier, Minneapolis—FOUR BLOCKS from where Pretti was murdered.
18 agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) markings smashed an apartment window, ran in, and came out with one man.
