Nightmare shit. Who are these judges? (Also, how was McCollum the only MN congressperson to sign that June letter??)
Hundreds of people have seen their immigration case dismissed, only to be arrested outside a Fort Snelling courtroom and placed in expedited removal.
Judges quick to end immigrants’ asylum cases as ICE agents wait outside courtroom

Get yourself a really cool and different advent calendar! Kids love learning about weird critters (eels are very weird, complimentary). Adults concerned about nature or just looking for a break from all the STUFF will appreciate the knowledge & art in this. C'mon. Do it for the eels.
This year we have sold 31% of the advent calendars that we sold last year 😓
The art is so pretty and colorful 🥺
The facts are so good 🥺
Eels are so cool 🥺

i know you would *never* let a PSL touch your lips, you don't have to tell me, I have a decent burr grinder and a beginner machine at home. But solidarity is solidarity, and retail worker's unions are *incredibly vulnerable.*

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

If you’re in the western suburbs of Minneapolis, Base Camp Coffee and Unmapped Brewing in Minnetonka are giving people a free beverage if they bring in a bag of non-perishable groceries to donate to ICA Food Shelf. They’re doing this through the month of November.

Community members, you can do this too, even without a kid in MPS! Tell them we all do better when we all do better! It's in EVERYONE'S best interest to give city kids a great education!
If you are a parent of a kid in Minneapolis public schools, please, please, PLEASE take 2 minutes to email the school board ([email protected]) and superintendent ([email protected]) to tell them to settle with the educators' union and give them what they want. Your emails truly help!

People are taking down their Jacob Frey yard signs *as we speak.* (For real! Heard firsthand from a Senior Caucus comrade yesterday about one such household! 😅.) Don’t let up in sharing why you’re supporting the Slate for Change—it’s @dewayneforminneapolis.com + Omar + Jazz for me—we can do this❣️

But Graham is right that Tuesday's election is vital. While I give Frey credit for not derailing the city's transportation consensus, he is running with a slate who are absolutely hostile to it. None of this is guaranteed. So many people have fought & scrapped for a decade to make it happen. Vote.

The greatest difference we could make to our future generations is not…any of the shit we hear people saying about tech.
It is learning how to care for each other enough to create and hold a real, lasting peace.
