End of the year shout out to my landlord who is raising our rent by 10% next year (aka nearly an extra month's rent a year), replaced their office assistant with an AI chatbot, and still can't figure out how to secure our packages 🫠 I'm sure the extra money will help!

MPD doesn't need another $38 million for yet another new building. Plowing sidewalks and traffic calming much better use of this money and will actually keep people safe.
🏆 Council Member Robin Wonsley has earned the Transportation Budget MVP award for amendments funding sidewalk snow clearance pilots, $2.3m for ADA ramp construction, $2.5m for traffic safety improvements, & $700k for protected bikeways.

Hey, I want to offer some helpful tips for coping with the cold for ICE folks who might have come from warmer places.
1. Wear cotton socks! Cotton is nice and soft next to your skin and will absorb your sweat so your feet stay warm. Cotton everything but ESPECIALLY socks!

Good morning to fuckers in our neighborhood kidnapping our neighbors! Can you see the city skyline? No? You’re wondering if Minneapolis burned down again overnight? Oh no, sweetie. That’s ice crystals in the air . It looks like it will get to around -8F without windchill! Please enjoy your stay!

It's both grounding and terrifying to use my experience as a #dietitian to validate shelter-in-place kits for our immigrant neighbors under threat by #ICE.

One of the largest manufactured home parks in the Twin Cities area is stuck in limbo.
An out-of-state company purchased the community and raised lot rents, spurring a legal dispute over whether the park should still be held to an agreement that capped costs for tenants.
