Well I’m just going to call out the rest of the day

Diners have fully stopped seasoning food and no is talking about it. I feel insane. I don’t know how many more blank eggs and hashbrowns I can take.

A week or so late to this, but here it is! This fall, Minneapolis Public Works crews are constructing dozens of treatments like this, as well as median islands, as a part of our Neighborhood Traffic Calming, Vision Zero, and other related programs.

As of yesterday — 2 weeks before Election Day — 9.3% of Minneapolitans had voted early. Often it’s Somali-American-heavy Ward 6 that leads the pack (pop-up center there today), but map looks like normal distribution, indicating early voting widespread. vote.minneapolismn.gov/results-data...

Have you heard about the uniquely Minneapolis partnership between water service workers and freshwater mussels? On #ImagineADayWithoutWater, we’re proud that our residents don’t have to. Our scientists, staff and non-human partners provide safe, reliable and accessible drinking water year-round

I’m outraged by this attack on Representative Omar. Trump and his DOJ have a bizarre obsession with tearing down Minnesota, our leaders and our communities. This latest action, even as voting has already started in Minnesota, is a transparent attempt to interfere in our elections.

We Stand With @ilhanmn.bsky.social 🩵 For a decade, Trump has targeted @repilhan.bsky.social with vile rhetoric. This morning, federal agents raided Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's home. No president should ever be able to weaponize the federal government against his political enemies. #IStandWithIlhan

Our new investigation into 500+ U.S. citizens held by immigration agents also features a searchable database for incidents involving minors, tear gas & Americans held 24 hours + My main takeaway? This is only the tip of the iceberg projects.propublica.org/american-cit...

So I edited this story. And I wanna share on thought on language, & telling the truth We talked about: the "government is lying to you" It may sound saucy. It may sound like opinion But it's just true And if something is true then you should just say it, clearly That's just good journalism

Yes that is my BEST FRIEND @nicolefoy.bsky.social in my favorite newsletter

The federal government is lying to you.

Successfully bullied the building into turning the AC back on

Saint Paul supremacy let’s goooooooo

Thanks to all who stopped by our Transit to Work Day celebration downtown! As regular riders know, commuting by transit is a great way to save money, ease stress, lower carbon emissions, and get the day started right.

Watched Cocktail last night to get in the right mind frame for Digger this week. The mind frame being “Boy, Tom Cruise sure can make a bad movie.”

Make a plan to take transit to work this Wednesday! And if you're headed downtown (or to the University of Minnesota), stop by our official celebrations for an AM pick-me-up!

Every September, my building turns off the AC for the winter too soon. So I unfortunately will be evil for the next 4-6 weeks until it’s no longer 80 degrees in my apartment.

Calling downtown commuters! We’re celebrating Transit to Work Day this Wednesday, Sept. 30 from 7-9 a.m. Enjoy free coffee and donuts, weigh in on local transit, and grab a selfie with Metro Transit’s mascot, Skip Traffic. See you near the giant wind turbine blade at Nicollet Mall & S 5th St.

NEXT WEDNESDAY: @minneapolismn.gov, @metrotransitmn.bsky.social, and MVTA are celebrating Transit to Work Day in downtown Minneapolis! Stop by 5th and Nicollet between 7-9 am for coffee, donuts, stickers, and more!

Damn, the hottest club in Minneapolis today is apparently the Lebanese Festival in NE

Tomorrow, Saturday the 19th! Ribbon cutting and celebration for Upper Harbor Park from 10:30-12:00. If you haven't gotten a chance to check out this incredible new space yet, you've got to get over there (and if you already have, here's an excuse to do so again).

I was going to say anyone over a 4th grade reading level understands the real lesson of the original Stanford prison experience. But then I remembered where we are as a country. Anyways, highly recommend reading Humankind by Dutch historian Rutger Bregman.

10 Idaho Statesman reporters — more than half the staff — were laid off Thursday by McClatchy Media, our hedge-fund-backed owner. Sadly, many don’t have large savings to sustain them while looking for new positions. Please consider donating to help reporters cover their bills. Any amount helps!

Appreciate this story from @wcconews.bsky.social about how the MPD Property and Evidence Dept. handles recovered bicycles. The one thing you can do (today!—don't wait!) to give yourself a bit of insurance against theft is to register your bike w/ serial number on BikeIndex.org youtu.be/-a5eAxlR6-w

Join us Sept. 10-19 for Welcoming Week, a citywide celebration that brings neighbors together to share stories, learn from each other and honor the many cultures that shape our city. Learn more about Welcoming Week events at minneapolismn.gov/welcoming-week. #WelcomingWeek2026

It’s think for yourself thursday

The Minneapolis Police Department is on the scene of a shooting in the area of 15 E Grant St. involving multiple victims, including two police officers. Please avoid the area. Additional information will be provided as it becomes available.

I feel like I say this every year, but genuinely: I have never seen this many people at the opening day of the fair.

On this Day of Remembrance, the City of Minneapolis stands with the Annunciation community.

Cleo visited City Hall for the first time today to celebrate "Bark Down Barriers," an ordinance change I am proudly co-authoring to remove fees for pet owners based on felony record. Thank you to my co-authors (Wonsley, Chavez, and Chowdhury) and advocates for their hard work!

On August 27, we encourage you to honor the Annunciation community by spending time with your neighbors. Join us Thursday, 1-5 p.m. at the Pearl Park Rec Center for a Day of Service and Remembrance.

Ooooh my god you hate the state fair? Should we tell everyone? Should we throw a party? Should we invite the eponymous men from Grumpy Old Men

We gotta shame these people

Our long national nightmare is almost over 😭😭

We’re being out-Minnesota’d by Michigan!!!!

Neighbors, we want to hear from you! Please join Council Member Aurin Chowdhury and I next Wednesday, 8/26 from 6-8pm at Sabathani Community Center, 310 E 38th St, for a town hall on the process to recruit a new Chief of the Minneapolis Police Department.

Minnesota continuing to fight ICE every chance we get

Buying tickets for a show in January 2027. As if that’s a real time.

My wife was an election judge at one of the precincts they visited in northeast Minneapolis. Sounds like the election workers did what they’re supposed to do when some very weird people came in asking about vouching.

My partner’s parents sent me a package unannounced (ominous) but it was just a box full of Star Trek action figures from the 90s. Still in the package!!!

Don’t hesitate to come to the polls; DOJ monitors will be outside the 100-foot zone, you don’t have to talk, you also don’t have to freak out, if you see them talking to anyone before they vote (they can only do so after) or engaging otherwise, tell the precinct head judge. We’re trained to help.

Minneapolis rules imo

Meet Minneapolis is looking to commission a local artist or designer to create an illustrated cycling map of Minneapolis! I'm hoping to see some unique visual languages and cartographic ideas come out of this. More details: minneapolis-2021.s3.amazonaws.com/images/Cycli...
