Racist whistles aside, posting and immediately deleting a video is something done intentionally, isn’t it? What is the scenario where you get all the way through writing the script, making the video, reviewing it, uploading it, and publishing it before then deciding to pull the plug?

Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

My people.

Every year I suffer in silence as the annual season of dread, sorrow, and darkness ramps up while my entire community revels in the beauty I myself cannot bring myself to enjoy, consumed by the knowledge of what lies ahead

i can't believe how many of you love fall. fall is the season of eternal stomach pits for me. i can't stop thinking about how winter is coming and somehow worrying about winter is worse than actual winter

The point is not that he failed to end homelessness. The point is that he made a promise to focus on solutions, and what he brought were bulldozers

The Star Tribune building is 3 blocks from the park where the Minneapolis march started. And for a newspaper that now considers itself statewide, there were more than 70 events scheduled outside of the Twin Cities, throughout Minnesota.

100,000-150,000 people march through downtown Minneapolis but it doesn’t make the front page if the Star Tribune. Instead, the top left story is “Ooo e-bikes dangerous.” How many head injuries from car/pedestrian, car/bike and car/car crashes are a year? Do they get top billing?

Full front page of Star Tribune. Stories are about injured person from e-bike collision, Scott Jensen running for governor as MAHA, impact of shutdown, and restoring water quality at Swan Lake.

The Tiktok realtor finally did St. Louis Park and naturally the top point of discussion is the hellscape of the Costco parking lot. As a local I will once again share How It's Done.

Not Shakespeare, but the scene of an upgraded Lt. Barclay performing a monologue from Cyrano de Bergerac left an impression on ten-year-old me

most kids would be better taught Shakespeare by a few viewings of Star Trek: The Next Generation than the way his work is traditionally taught

A larger zone arguably reduces the performance gap between the two starting pitchers. Skubal doesn’t need an expansive zone to get outs.

It can be difficult to square the triple nature of mass-market masculinity as toxic, persistent and fragile all at the same time. Enter “man wipes,” at once an earnest product, a too-loud laugh at a dirty and tired joke, and in every way a symbol of modern crisis of men. In this essay, I will

There is no safe space for flushable wipes. Not in your pipes, not in our environment, and definitely not in my DMs.

Plz don’t use flushable wipes.

Sender: was a bit embarassed to admit this last night, but here, within the secure environment of a bluesky DM, i will admit that i use man wipes
they have mint scented ones now
Me: They are so bad for plumbing and the environment
