Also, Timberwolves co-owner and Minnesota landlord Alex Rodriguez (yes, that A-Rod owns over a thousand housing units in the Twin Cities) was recently in Minnesota to lobby for a new stadium.
He should receive a very frosty reception.

People in Minnesota are being hunted by federal agents. They are in hiding. And if they cannot work to pay rent, they will no longer be able to hide. We need so many things in Minnesota, @governorwalz.mn.gov - a rent moratorium is the bare minimum and within your power to enact.

ICE is still very actively brutalizing the Twin Cities metro region. These thugs need to be brought to justice.
This is the aftermath of an ICE kidnapping a few blocks from my home in St. Paul—an hour ago. A quiet street full of broken glass and at least three wrecked cars. The target of the kidnapping was taken away by ambulance. He was on a stretcher and covered by a sheet, though a cop said he was alive.

I love the color in your final painted version. The darkness that looks so closed in or claustrophobic in the original Woman in Red Armchair painting ends up feeling more like a spacious or celestial backdrop in yours, which I think is a really nice effect

My point is it doesn't take much complexity for us to experience a system we're interacting with like there's some kind of a person in there if we want to. It's like a whole category of fun

Another must watch, appreciate the folks over in Elliott Payne's office doing the work and getting the word out like this.
An 18 year old was taken today in the Hennepin County Government Center.
Any leader thinking collaborating with ICE will be good and help end this surge is forgetting that no one in our community is expendable.
