a norwegian on Threads posted this and i just don’t know how much more clearly we can emphasize how much Americans are being ripped off by our system which is built to concentrate wealth at the top

on October 14, a black bear entered the Mammoth Lakes Library at 6 am. it was the 100th anniversary of the publication of Winnie-the-Pooh. the bear went directly to the employees' food supplies. i know what you're thinking. the answer is yes. he ate a pot of honey. this was a pilgrimage.

This was such a great answer from Abdul El-Sayed about his previous criticisms of President Obama.

Honestly. If that guy’s strategy is to wear us down, then he doesn’t understand Minnesota and our winters. We endure and thrive because of each other. To my Somali neighbors and friends - you are needed and loved.

Goddamn, this point by @anandwrites.bsky.social really needed saying.

Hey, fellas, before you write that white hot take about how rape is such a tricky thing and, I mean, who can really say what happened and, you know, maybe we should not be too judgmental, I'd like to remind you that instead you can simply shut the fuck up.

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

After graduating from U of MN (@umn-tc-aaup.bsky.social), it took more than a decade to pay off my student loans. In Norway, Norwegians pay no tuition for public universities (the highest ranked universities). Parents’ income does not matter – no tuition. www.barnesandnoble.com/w/so-this-is...

Sophie Cunningham's -28 in today's game is the worst single-game +/- in a win in WNBA history. #WNBA

The #Lynx held a celebratory availability for Coach Reeve today with the media and entire team in attendance. She shared an emotional moment reflecting on the journey from being an assistant coach for multiple franchises that folded, but refusing to give up on the @wnba.com:

I don’t know man, who is “the Democratic Party” if it’s not the voters?Democratic voters choose candidates, not party leaders. And party leaders need to listen to what voters are telling us - and right now they are demanding our party be bolder.

All the hate on Caitlin Clark lately is *wild*. She is NOT bad at basketball. She's just not as good as Olivia Miles.

Hey Minnesotans - time to Stand with New Jersey! They’re going through what we did with Whipple. Info on how to help here: www.standwithminnesota.com/jersey Thanks to @ziibiing.com!

This is what it's like having Olivia Miles on your team

horrible. this country’s turn away from science based medicine in the name of “wellness” is killing children and will kill a lot more. www.propublica.org/article/more...

The Senate GOP is selling out America’s public lands to foreign mining.

Let’s figure out a plan to save HCMC and put all of our hospitals on steadier footing. The latest funding blow - $170 million per year cut by Trump via HR1 - will push HCMC over the edge. We must be the grown ups in the room and craft a plan to keep HCMC open.

True Aussie legend.

"My fellow Americans, we’re bringing money back to our country. We’re using a thing called tariffs. Here’s how it works: You have to pay more for things, and that money becomes the people’s money. (The people are my family and me.)"

The level of anger normal Minnesota people have at their elected representatives is palpable. It's not about party, but the perceived failure of local/state electeds to do anything of substance to protect residents who pay their taxes and get left facing off alone against masked, armed men.

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Team USA Curler Rich Ruohonen: "We'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention what's going on in Minnesota...I am a lawyer, as you know, and we have a constitution... and what's happening in Minnesota is wrong. There's no shades of gray. It's clear."
