What is happening in Minnesota should terrify you.

And I mean terrify you to the bone.

The federal government is actively lying about things we can see with our own eyes. They are murdering people in the street, blatantly lying about it, and blocking the state from investigating.

”rumpled library detective“ is a pretty good description of my actual profession, tbh.
Who do you aspire to be?

1. author of mild esteem
2. semi functional human
3. rumpled library detective
4. mossy forest monster

This wasn’t exactly normal times (January 2021), but it was a gorgeous winter Sunday in the park and the whole neighborhood was out enjoying it.

Irate middle-aged midwesterner here. Yup.
ICE can't even deal with irate middle-aged midwesterners. how does he occupy hundreds, if not thousands, of polling cites and precincts? trump v. illinois clarified that he has no legal authority to unilaterally commandeer national guards, how does he move forward from there?

How you can tell the protesters aren’t paid agitators: Watch the videos. It’s the accents.

Those accents have a favorite Zorbaz.

Those accents can tell you EXACTLY where they were on 10/31/91.

Those accents have thrown a bra off the SkyGlider.

Those accents get emotional about Randy Moss.

I am deeply frustrated with our electeds’ response, but legit question for those who’ve thought about this harder than I have: what should they be doing if their response was ideal? I hate what’s happening here, but I sure don’t them want to give the govt any excuse to come down even harder.

The U of MN, including libraries, is moving to U card-only access to buildings. Non U affiliates will not be able to freely enter. The statements from U admin are pretty mealy-mouthed, but this is a concrete (if unfortunately necessary) move.

Very very minor all things considered, but WTF is the deal with Noem’s comically large cowboy hat? She looks like Yosemite Sam.

Just like every January in Minnesota, I’m eagerly looking forward to ice out.

Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.

Here we see the Pope giving new meaning to Abbot Suger's "architecture of light"—a metaphysical theology that informed the design of Gothic cathedrals—through the medium of sound, establishing once and for all that the sonic impact of angel song is best represented by dubstep. In this essay I will

If a man calls a woman “crazy” please know that it’s actually code for “she is reasonably upset by the compounded experiences of injustice that her mere existence has subjected her to and I don’t want to acknowledge it or I fear I will realize I’ve benefited from the culture of it.” Hope that helps!

The attorney general and the FBI director, a manosphere podcaster bro, pulled into the situation room a member of Congress best known for getting kicked out of a Beetlejuice musical for drunkenly giving her date a handy, in order to pressure her about the president's child sex trafficking scandal.
