Saint Paul now, Portland OR then. Soccer, baseball, bikes, dogs, and cats. Timbers, Thorns FC, MNUFC, MN Aurora, Minneapolis City. Twins and Mariners. He/him
Saint Louis Cardinals Country Music Night is *the* promotion at *the* venue of *the* team that will get me my ass handed to me, if I tell my wife I got her tickets for that
I can’t be told what to do but I am listening to the Brandon Flowers THRASHER album preview at the suggestion of a text message
Going the speed limit does make other drivers furious, but the 2–3 times I felt like I was most in danger was when stopping correctly at red lights. Whipping around me to run the red light, or even to whip around me to turn in front of me, seems spectacularly reckless
Once again I regret to inform that I feel better after doing the workout I started so reluctantly Why does this keep happening to me???
The snow I thought I’d be hearing about forever was the one in April of 2019, people were ripshit about that one when we were looking at houses in late spring/early summer (from Portland OR)
When this happens you have to pick them up off the fan base to get them going again
I’m on my own for the Twins game today so I get to ride over from Saint Paul
#baonpdx Did somebody collect Kling’s pre-game speeches? I want to make something like an alarm clock that starts my day with a random Kling pre-game. Maybe somebody already did this sort of?
My daughter and I are going to miss the Tackle Box Premium bottles with the fish under the caps
Just got a closeup of the ball before kickoff of Dundee vs Celtic and the ball had DUFC written on it in Sharpie like I did with the youth league balls we bought when I was club president
You know you’re dealing with the real incorrigibles when you find some floor sweepings of weed in a Bon Maman jelly jar
Gravel Influencer@gravelinfluencer.bsky.social · last wk.This has got to be the saddest police "trophy shot" I've seen. Some Coors, Angry Orchard, a few marijuana buds, and a couple of bongs following an underage drinking bust.
First time in my life platelet donation didn’t work. Pretty bummed
There’s a local kid, in high school now, who during COVID loved to roughhouse with Lolly and Ivy. I think for him it was one normal thing in a crazy time. He came over this evening and WORE them OUT. They love him back and you love to see it
Twin cities 4-season cyclists: What’s your winter cycling setup? What do you like about it? What would you change? Anybody got a low(er, anyway) drivetrain setup they like?
Might be the case that Ted Lasso’s been gone too long for the schtick to stick
Couldn’t tell you why, as I was casting about to read something yesterday, I picked up George Saunders’ “Lincoln in the Bardo.” Read the whole thing not quite in a sitting. Now I need to find people I can talk to about it
Don’t think this place is literate enough for the joke I was going to make
I suppose the evolutionary biological reason for my toes still ringing hours later after I stubbed them is so that I “don’t fucking do that again”
Only in Minnesota, maybe: Walking into the polling place, a woman and her very young daughter were walking out, and the daughter was asking where the boat was. She thought they were going boating
Back in Saint Paul, fixing to get ready to go vote. Looking forward to making my Flanagan texters very happy, and my Craig texters very sad
Trump Said to Have Used Porta-Potty to Leave Minnesota State Fair
I think that Trump/Turkey/serving cart/safety thing might have looked something like this
Anybody in the Twin Cities feed have any experience with basement egress window installation/repair places? There are a lot of contractors to choose from, I’m wondering if there’s a contractor people like
At the game, LA Queens v SF Firebells. We’re on the Firebells side (shady), so we’re Firebells all the way
