Suburbs to Minneapolis girl. Working on giving the benefit of the doubt to people who don’t deserve it.

Cancer sucks. Miss you, dad.
So excited for this line! I’ll be heading downtown later today to visit Christmas markets and see a show at Orchestra Hall.
And we’re off! The first-ever METRO E Line trips departed a little before 4:30 a.m. this morning! No fares are required to ride the E Line today until 10 p.m. thanks to our sponsor, @minneapoliscollege.bsky.social. Check the schedule and plan your trip here: www.metrotransit.org/route/eline

This woman is a million times stronger than the ICE assholes who tried to intimidate her.
Thank you to all the people like Lucia

I’m a teacher at one of the public schools in Minneapolis. One of our janitors, Henry, is majorly behind on his rent, struggling to afford his heart medications, and can’t afford groceries.

You think Elizabeth Shaffer is going to hold these people accountable like Katie is? Such a loss for Ward 7 and our city.
I have a grand total of zero patience left for the top paid city staff in charge of community safety not being able to answer basic questions about crime trends and personnel allocations as we deliberate our budget.
Worth watching not just because it's fun. The Frey admin choosing to implement the budget priorities of their friends over their foes is not how the council's power of the purse is supposed to work.

I don't care if you think that AI can do some really nifty things. It's being rammed down our throats by obscenely wealthy men who are also, obviously, both dangerously right-wing and mentally unstable, and no rational society should be allowing that to happen. End of discussion.

They’re killing people as a twitter joke. It’s depraved. Can’t let yourself lose the capacity to be appalled and disgusted and outraged by this.

If you claim you aren’t going to work with ICE, mind your damn business when they come to town.

It seems when ICE wants protection from the people of St. Paul, the police are willing to take the call but when the people of St. Paul need protection from ICE, they can’t be bothered

Can’t stress this enough!
spoke with the executive director of my local food bank today and got this really incredible line: "if you donate 1 can of green beans, we can give away 1 can of green beans. but if you donate a dollar, we can give away 6 cans of green beans"

it doesn’t get any clearer that america’s betrothal to fossil fuels is about letting energy companies pick our pockets to prop up their obsolete industry
Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

Andrew Cuomo gave more money in taxpayer subsidies to Elon Musk than the entire cost of Zohran Mamdani’s free bus plan.

It’s not unreasonable or radical to want our tax dollars to go to programs that help us, instead of as giveaways to billionaires.

This! Food shelves have more food buying power than you and can get more for your dollar.
When policy and elected leaders betray us, it’s up to the people to do what needs to be done.

If you can give cash to food banks, now is the time. Trust that they know how the stretch the pennies best, giving cash is the best way. Every donation, every share matters.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.
