I guess I now have to do a thread on shoes in ancient Mesopotamia in response to this (which happens to be from one of my favourite accounts).
I’m not an archaeologist, nor do I really know anything about shoes, but let’s go on this journey together.

Obviously being president is incredibly exhausting, and Trump is old and probably declining faster that the administration will ever admit, but if you’ve never tried to turn being visibly sleepy into a sort of pensive skepticism you have not fucked with enough meetings to speak about this topic
the Doug Mills video embedded in the NYT Trump aging story is pretty amazing

Photos from St. Paul today captured by MPR photojournalist Kerem Yücel. He filed them even after being hospitalized after being injured by a less lethal munition.

I’ll admit it: I can’t look away. When it was just personal drama it was tacky, but now the allegation is on the table that a major political profile journalist was secretly advising and doing catch-and-kills for RFK Jr while ostensibly covering him—making it highly newsworthy. Deal with it, prudes!
Just opened my copy of status and saw "Ryan Lizza will publish his latest entry into his ongoing Olivia Nuzzi series in the next 24 hours or so, Lachlan Cartwright reported in his newsletter Breaker."

Just at the purely electoral level these are three of their weakest issues. None of my business, but it might be useful to have someone in state party leadership who wants to win elections instead of doing anti-woke reverse virtue signaling
If messaging out of Minnesota’s GOP to Congresspeople is any indication, our state is going to spend 2026 drowning in messages targeting Somali community, immigrants, and trans folks.
These aren’t “distractions” they’re active attempts to scapegoat anyone seen as “other.”
We must stand together.

Self-driving cars only reduce any of the problems of private car ownership if they’re safer (seem to be?) and cheap enough that people give up owning cars (not for a long time, if ever). Otherwise they have the same problems, e.g., this concert traffic jam isn’t better or worse with no drivers
Waymo privatized another public street:
Chanel approaching 4th, San Francisco
Possibly queued for a Billie Eilish show at Chase Center ~half mile away.
The light rail train on 4th seen passing in front of this roboherd has more passenger capacity than all of them combined.

I had an overnight job in college, and even on nights I wasn’t working I would be up all night because I slept afternoons. One night I was endlessly milling through the UMN campus buildings and ended up in the law school library. And I stopped suddenly in the stacks and said “…I should be a lawyer”

Met Trump tonight at a trance show in Red Hook. VERY down to earth and not at all as he’s come to us in media. A real mensch. And of course anyone who loves trance is good by me

Two guys who stuck their thumbs right in the nose of their own party’s elites by appealing directly to the voters and won unthinkable victories in the highest stake elections possible. Not hard to see why they had a “we’re not so different, you and I” connection

Gotta wonder if there’s some simmering hostility towards ICE among local law enforcement leadership. Untrained, masked federal goons smashing windows and tear gassing old ladies is bad optics and splashes back on their profession, which has something of a standing PR problem baked into the job
An ICE employee was among 16 men arrested after trying to solicit a minor for sex in Bloomington, Minnesota, police say
"When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges said during a press conference. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

At the ribbon cutting for 1st Avenue for the potion from Lake to Franklin. Fine looking street. Just some final clean-up and spring planting left.
New facilities on either end being built next year (1st Ave Franklin to downtown on north end, access ramp at the Greenway to the south).

A verified true fact is that Bob Prevost saw Blues Brothers at the Roseville 4, and now as the holy father is doing papal bulls affirming the sacredness of movie mindset. Good things coming out of Europe's microstates
