as much as i’d rather build something new, we have to takeover and gut the democratic party all that infrastructure belongs to the people, not the loser ass DCCC consultant class that has reduced it to nothing since the clinton era

I was just looking at these Census stats. Workforce participation among Somali-American adults in Minnesota is actually higher than the rest of the population.

Write in anyways!! I’m asking for anyone in Ramsey to write in me, or literally anyone, against Bob Fletcher.

ST. PAUL POLICE PUBLIC SAFETY ALERT: If you see this man, call 911. Then get the heck out of there and lock your door. Serial sex assault suspect on the loose. www.twincities.com/2026/10/23/s...

This is just a generic shop sign in Minneapolis

I bet if DJT wasn’t president, Iran war would’ve never happened.

My cousin organized a series of masked concerts in NYC so immunocompromised and other covid-conscious folks can still enjoy live music events, and is raising funds so he can keep doing so! Love and appreciation to anyone able to chip in 🙏🏾♥️ www.kickstarter.com/projects/pos...

Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

Um. Trump is an evil person. And he's in charge of American nukes...

republicans used to complain about the violence in gangster rap and now they want to livestream an execution

Ok. I'm late gen x. I literally was operating under "children should be seen and not heard." Until a few days ago. I am 48 years old! Trauma is real. For sure!

Genuine question from a newly diagnosed autistic. Why are the death rituals so creepy in the US? Why do so many people care when a person dies- and they HAVE to go to a funeral. Yet, they were entirely absent when the person was alive? What is this?! I think its performative wildly repulsive.

A new app lets you find out who’s behind the political mailers you receive, which comes in handy for people who don’t want to be manipulated by self-interested billionaires. Learn all about it from @juddlegum.bsky.social who created the “paidforby” app. joycevance.substack.com/p/paid-for-b...

My parents are passed. Being able to use my words and be blatantly honest to my relatives has been absolutely liberating. Especially for a recently diagnosed person with ASD. It RULES. Because I didn't have to follow everyone else's rules. I love this for me.

ProPublica is the indispensable journalistic institution of today; MUCH better than both the Washington Post, which has crumbled, and the the New York Times, which is in the pocket of Israel & the weapons industry

This guy... Oh? Dead you say? Okay then. Bye.

I caught a cold from my daughter who babysat a stuffy teething baby 9 days ago. It's miserable! Either I didn't get sick very often when my kids were younger... yet it's highly likely that instead of being sick, I took a 12 hour sudafed and powered through it all.

And if you're already a subscriber and/or just want to buy me a coffee or something stronger, you can do so here. I'm grateful for your support.

Remember when people called it "surfing the web" because it felt so cool and exhilarating? Ain't nobody surfing Chat fucking GPT.

We do not have to let people suffer for capitalism, and also we need houses and food. Workers deserve rest and care. That's a choice we can make as a society

My man looks like a beluga whale pitching Bitcoin

If we do not change how this system functions all we’re saying by encouraging a career in the trades is “hey this will get you by until you’re forty and then we’ll stand idly by while you slowly die”. We have to change the system. We cannot trade school our way out of capitalism

Dammit. This fucking sucks. I hate it here.

Well, the president won't (for once). His ICE "agents" well... they will do that on his behalf? /s

And while we're on this fresh hot thread let me add that after Michael Baskins' TWO ridiculous Ward 2 runs, during one of which I was DFL precinct secretary and noted as he falsified his home address, I can also report he is the dumbest candidate I've ever met in person. and THAT is saying something

I told Jimmi Pickles she was cheesy. She didn’t think it was funny

they might've spelled the name of the country correctly on that aislop EO from the other day but that's about it

People saying what Amy Klobuchar was doing here looked tame do not understand the body language, tone, and affect of Minnesotans. She basically tarred and feathered this man in the town square while cackling with glee

FYI.

LOL. Is there a bsky group for carpal tunnel?

With little more than a month to go until Election Day, my job is to worry. I am paid to look around corners and see what might go wrong, not simply to assume that everything will go right. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/just...

If a sentence in your newscast starts with “President Trump says…” you’re failing your audience.

Just saw video of people at Kare11 in the rain protesting the moving of Jana Shortal’s show off TV. Not sure I’ve ever seen such a thing before…

I hear the Butterball hotline just expanded to telehealth

Ani Difranco wrote an autobiography that my daughter is reading. I love this. And I feel old.

There's so many children playing at the playground across the street. I love this so much.

Also, Democracts who want to ban "men" in women's sports... It's okay to vote blue no matter who: because voting Democract is 80% less fascism than their opponents in the RNC.

my car ran out of gas on the side of the road and my insurance company is saying it's totalled

I just spoke with a retired NBA player who told me that when he got drafted, he went out for ice cream to celebrate and was denied service. All these stories are still within living memory and they're still being contested at the highest levels of our government.

I had not seen this clip where Tammy Duckworth advises Democrats to "not impeach anybody," "get back to work" and "allow" Donald Trump to "save face" and I would just like to remind the senator from IL that the federal government took 4,000 Chicagoans and murdered a 38-year-old father last fall.
