i’m gonna expand on this. when we say, “destroy everything,“ it means medications, ID, phone if they have it, birth certificate/Social Security card if they have it, last mementos or even ashes from loved ones, Clothing, Food, Library card... You name it. & actively being criminalized for it.

for those moots who are not locals, the major of St. Paul has chosen to destroy two homeless encampments in St. Paul with no real plans for the people being displaced. when they do this, they literally just bring skid loaders through and destroy everything

The only difference is that I'm the senior and I would do it to combat loneliness in youngsters.

She cycles around, sets up her bench and a small table with coffee and cake somewhere, and chats with complete strangers. The goal is to strengthen the neighborhood and combat loneliness, particularly among seniors.

Good Morning! #OnThisDay Aug 4 1937: Chicago Milwaukee St Paul & Pacific Train No. 100 "Hiawatha" departs the Milwaukee Road Depot in downtown Minneapolis, heading for Chicago. At top speeds of over 100mph, these were the fastest scheduled trains in the world.

"renewable technologies have matured faster than even their boosters could ever have imagined. They now offer humanity an unlikely exit ramp off our current highway to climate hell — if only our politicians and business leaders had the wit and mettle to grasp this slenderest of lifelines."

‘Renewables offer humanity an unlikely exit ramp off our current highway to #climate hell – if only our politicians & business leaders had the wit & mettle to grasp this slenderest of lifelines’ My take in Irish Examiner today. www.irishexaminer.com/opinion/comm...

Electric cargo bikes were swarming the Longfellow Market yesterday. Look at those beauties! Cannot recommend a car ➡️ bike switch enough.

Use Gory Brand Nail Varnish! and Smoke Bambles!

He cites users' ability to mute & block folks as a positive, which is good. It's also why right wing chuds thankfully can't get a foothold here - b/c they violate community norms & get nuclear blocked out of normal people's timelines. Bluesky isn't a *liberal* bubble - it's a *decency* bubble.

Bluesky's new CEO Toni Schneider on the platform's reputation for being a liberal bubble: "Yes, we definitely want that to change. It is already changing. It certainly wasn’t designed to attract one specific group of people."

GO VOTE IN THE PRIMARY or other people will own your future! I want 50 people under age 50 to vote and tell me about it here. Early, in-person primary voting now through August 10. Primary election August 11. Find your county's voting locations and hours (some are extended) here:

In some modern places there are no schools. In others, no plumbing or water treatment or toilets or only a pretense of medical care. Here we waste our wealth of riches destroying the planet and starting wars and shooting guns and being mean.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.

The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor

The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.

My response to people who say families with a full schedule of activities for their school age children can't get by without a car.

Alexa just lost 30 years and sounds like a 17-year-old yapping about the temperature. She cannot possibly know meteorology.

Wild seeing our mayor doing political ads for the non-DFL endorsed candidate.

Take the rest of the semiquincentennial off, packaging copywriter and designer!

The lesson from Minnesota in the last 12 months is that no community, no position, no election guarantees the elevation of moral angels. To blame malfeasance on members of any specific group is ridiculous. From native born to immigrant and across all races, people are flawed. Don't throw stones.

Weeks of blazing, roasting heat then 2 inches of rain in one day. How are plants and trees supposed to evolve in real time to survive this new abnormal?

My anecdote is that we have been able to go from a two car four person family to a two e-bike, four bike, one car family and life is better because of it

This new information must be treated as seriously as any #MeToo workplace event. The world must see that men have no particular lock on depravity.

New allegations of inappropriate behavior surface against St. Paul Mayor Kaohly Her

The mayor allegedly commented on the breasts of a female police officer and plastered her own portrait over photos of high-ranking police officers inside the department’s administrative offices.

startribune.com

In the last 48 hours, Saint Paulites have learned about multiple allegations that Mayor Kaohly Her engaged in sexual harassment and misconduct toward city employees. These allegations are serious, and must be fully and thoroughly investigated.

I am very curious about the process for choosing this outside law firm.

RM@rmx.bsky.social · 7d ago

So in short, they Mayor thought she could do an end-run around the Council, avoid any real scrutiny with a law-firm she likely chose herself, and make the whole thing go away.

Everyone! The most important people in public are pedestrians. They don't need to watch out for you. Their safety is not a "shared responsibility." Let's get that straight right now.

As far as I know, I do not. If I do, they probably would have let me know by now. Probably via Facebook.

Sen. Roger Marshall: "Who didn't have a friend who took this vaccine and had some time of complication? A stroke, a blood clot, a young man getting some type of heart inflammation. That's what destroyed the trust in the American people for our government."

bruh, you cannot, must not look away when they trying to sell you $31 million in police overtime (to an already bloated $230 million budget), sell you a "mysterious" $30 mil budget deficit and need for you to pony up more cash. You should be outraged. You should demand better.
