Vince Mpls@vincempls.bsky.social · 6d ago7/8 While continuing to produce delicious icons, Pearson's is bought by private equity in 2011, then changes owners twice more. New flavors are introduced, some popular, some not. The land under the factory is sold to an Arizona real estate capital firm, and leased back.
The five year old has been HARASSING me about when the Mandalorian comes out on digital, because he fell asleep in the theater during the second act where Baby Yoda builds a little Yoda Hut, finally proving that Yodas just Do That I Guess. He cites this scene SPECIFICALLY.
Wife and I are discussing rearranging the house, and she just confessed that she doesn't like her desk being in the middle of the front room because "I feel like Pilot from Farscape" and I understand this is not the correct response here but I've never been more attracted to her than I am right now.
7yo: “Papa, you have some white hairs in your beard.” Me: “I know honey.” 7yo: “…Papa?” Me: “Yes, honey?” 7yo: “You’re going to die soon.” Me: “…probably.”
Raised a glass at the bar and said "TO OUR NEW FAITHFUL ALLIES: IRAN!" and before @punsultant.bsky.social had a chance to hush me, the table next to us all clinked their glasses and said "TO IRAN!"
ALERT 🚨 ALERT 🚨 THERE ARE DUCKLINGS IN THE BACKYARD.
I will never leave Twitter of my own volition, but I will continue to give them ample opportunities to remove the option to stay.
Congratulations to @thisboldericon.bsky.social on your election to Progressive Caucus Secretary. Progressives and leftists need strong fighters to stand up for us in the DFL, and you’re the biggest fighter I know, so I know we’re in good hands. 🫡
It was nice to see so many friends today at the DFL Hennepin County Endorsing Whatever today. Lots hated enemies, too. Still nice to see you. And even more people whose relationships I need to repair. Very nice to see you, too.
I’ve decided to delete a post for two very good reasons. 1) I had implied in my post that a friend of mine was engaging in unseemly behavior. I do not believe that is the case, because they are more earnest and pure than anyone I’ve known, and I hope they can one day forgive me. 2) that’s it!!!!!!
This provision was successfully added to the Constitution Report right before the report was adopted by the convention. Huge thanks to @thequeengeek.bsky.social for pulling this whole thing together. I mean, obviously I was integral to the whole husband-and-wife team thing, but this is her victory.

Strobe lights or other similar devices at a DFL convention? That’s a paddlin’.
Dex Anderson@dexanderson.com · 2mo agoI had to leave the room during Klob's entrance rally because her team handed out fucking strobing batons. I have a sensitivity to strobes. It's an immediate headache and potentially seizing. It is UNACCEPTABLE that I have to be worried about fucking STROBE LIGHTS in this space.
This was actually foretold by the Principia Discordia.

Kaytie is a hardworking activist, a hell of a friend, and she deserves to be seated at tomorrow’s convention. If you know me, you know that I understand more than most what she’s going through right now. We owe it to ourselves as a party and as a community to do right by Kaytie, and seat her.
Ms. K tweets@whatmsksaid.bsky.social · 2mo agoif u are a delegate to this weekend’s Minnesota DFL state convention, i am asking for ur support in seating me tomorrow, Friday, May 29 @ 4:00pm in Rochester. i have been duly elected three times this year by my SD60 DFL community. community elections matter more than secret committee decisions:
Very good thread from Taylr on this, however one quick note: while it is true that endorsed candidates are forbidden from openly supporting non-endorsed candidates, it will require their home unit going out of their way to rescind their endorsement. This happens approximately 0.00% of the time.
taylr@taylordahlin.com · 2mo agoother DFL endorsed candidates cannot support craig now that flanagan will be endorsed. running to a primary leaves craig on an island while grassroots groups are fired up for flanagan, like indivisible MN
My Twitter alt has been banned for posting a screenshot from the Local 58 Contingency video. 😂
I’ve spent 2 of the last 5 months either in the hospital for a life threatening illness or in rehab for a debilitating injury. You can do nothing to me. Except maybe giving me another life threatening illness or debilitating injury. But aside from that, I, uh, well I guess you could kill me, but hey
Relax Walter, I’m talking about taking away your legislative responsibilities, not Happy Hour.
The Seven Year Old went to a church event with some neighbors, not looking forward to when she comes home all like "Papa did you know God lives inside all of us!?" and I have to be like "NO! HE DOESN'T!! HE LIVES IN A BIG HOUSE IN THE CLOUDS!!! IDIOT!!!"
I changed my middle name from Patrick to Mohamed, but people are STILL like “oh here comes Donavon Mohamed INDOVINO Cawley,” there is just no escaping Italian-American discrimination in this country. 😔
Completely deleting a voters’ record after they die might sounds like it’s a good idea - Republicans sure think so - but it actually takes away a check to prevent voter fraud.
Due to a clerical error, we have repealed the new Minnesota state flag, but not the new Minnesota state seal, so now our flag is this.
“Columbo Rising From The Underworld To Stalk The Wicked” An incredible piece my wife @thequeengeek.bsky.social commissioned @brandonbird.bsky.social to lovingly paint. Apparently the both of them know me better than me.
My “WE ARE NOT A REPUBLICAN PAC” shirt has people asking a lot of questions that are already answered by the shirt.
