Minneapolis, but with a St Croix River and Lake Superior itch. Anti-carceral and pro-density politics. Pun lover. Union enthusiast. Imagining a better world with fewer cars.
Shout out to @brandonbeck4.bsky.social and @fiveburger.bsky.social. Your jokes make it more fun to be a wolves fan.

I also think defense attorneys are bad, but for the morally correct reason (antagonism toward anyone who attends law school).

Proud to be in this photo. The feeling of gathering with neighbors to protect ourselves was so powerful and positive. The tingle of pepper spray I felt in my knuckles, fingertips, eyes, and lips aren’t much compared to the feeling that we will win. Major thanks to the people leading this resistance.
One more shot from the ICE activity in Cedar Riverside this afternoon.
So fucking proud of everyone who showed up to document, yell, give the finger to feds, and care for our beloved immigrant neighbors. We keep us safe

This is just an incredible moment in history. It feels like it’s turning and this might be a low point but it’s really really bad!

@fiveburger.bsky.social a guy in a purple wolves hat got off the light rail with me on the way to tonight’s game. I wanted to ask if it was you but then I realized I can’t ask a stranger “are you functional moron??”

You should never be venmoing people for anything less than $20. If you bought someone a beer, they owe you a beer, they don't owe you money, or you just like them enough to give them a beer
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

I wrote about Ta-Nehisi Coates and Ezra Klein, why swallowing live frogs is a bad idea, and how context and history can release you from bright-kid syndrome, the illusion that you yourself are going to have every answer or fix the world.
You don't have to swallow frogs
Klein and Coates show that if you don't know what your core beliefs are, you're going to get played.

It would be more honest if more people would say "I am doing OK amidst the horrors being suffered by others." It's actually not true that everything is terrible for everyone right now. We're living under unequally distributed fascism.

For this window between Francis’s death and the white smoke at the end of the conclave, I believe the chicken restaurant should rename themselves POPENO instead of POPEYES

I’ve seen some good Wolves chatter on this website but everyone seems afraid to speak the obvious truth we saw last night: This team will never lose again.

I’m at the wolves-nets game and this sequence from Etienne was hilarious. He’s in this play-by-play five times and they’re all bad
