lydia “there is a war on cars” millard’s campaign getting up at the crack of dawn to put flyers featuring herself on a bike on every windshield in the neighborhood is pretty funny

first thought seeing what they chose to put on this image is how rob is always telling people who want him to stand up for trans rights that he can only do so much as a governor with a red legislature

now more than ever we must honor frankenstein friday in our hearts and try to keep it all the year
Why is Frankenstein Friday important? Frankenstein Friday seems meaningful in how it invites us to revisit a story that’s more than a monster tale: it asks questions about creation, responsibility, isolation, and what it means to be human. The day gives us a moment to pause on themes that perhaps resonate even now — the ambition to “play god,” the consequences of neglecting what we create, and the yearning for connection in a world that often alienates. Celebrating the day means acknowledging that what seems like pure entertainment (a green creature, lightning bolts) has deeper roots.

i do not think these are all being placed by the homeowners (let alone renters lol), i think there must be a lydia millard staffperson sticking these in every corner of every intersection. just blatant astroturfing

uiowa’s satire site filling gaps the DI won’t: “ICAP sent an open letter [that] urged [the College of Engineering to disinvite] an Iowa arms manufacturer implicated in the illegal killing of two Gazan paramedics….ICAP’s demands were rejected out of hand.” www.thedoilyallergen.com/p/dear-daily...
Dear Daily: How Do You Get the Blood Off Your Hands? BYRON LÓPEZ ELLINGTON AND ASHER OCT 25, 2025 BULK This article is not satirical. In its publication, The Doily Allergen hopes to bring attention to a topic that has not received sufficient, accurate coverage from other local media. On September 12th, 2025, local human rights group Iowa City Action for Palestine (ICAP) sent an open letter to Ann McKenna, Dean of the College of Engineering, and Kalindi Garvin, Director of Engineering Career Services. The letter urged them to live up to the College's purported commitment to ethics and global safety by disinviting American Ordnance, an Iowa arms manufacturer implicated in the illegal killing of two Gazan paramedics, from the Engineering Career Fair. The paramedics, Yusuf Zeino and Ahmed Al-Madhoun, were killed in their ambulance while going to assist five-year-old Hind Rajab, who was brutally murdered alongside her family. In a response from the Dean, the evidence included in this letter was ignored, and ICAP's demands were rejected out of hand. "Allowing an employer to recruit on campus is a commitment to student choice," she wrote. The Daily Iowan reported on ICAP's protest event publicizing the letter. However, ICAP holds that the student newspaper did not represent their positions and demands with the fullness required for the severity of the situation, mentioning only "alleged Israeli war crimes" rather than any details on the specific killings of Zeino and Al-Madhoun, nor the fact that they were attempting to assist Rajab before her infamous death. The Daily Iowan also continues to use hesitant language except when quoting directly. They fail to refer to the Gaza genocide by name, despite the International Criminal Court, the United Nations, the International Association of Genocide Scholars, and hundreds of other human rights organizations condemning it as an act of genocide. In an interview we conducted with ICAP member Uchechi Anomnachi, he stated, "In [The Daily Iowan's] fervor to present 'both' sides of the story, they privilege perspectives that dehumanize Palestinians. There is no moral equivalence between voices that argue it is wrong for civilian populations to be bombed and besieged, and those that condone Israel's genocide. If DI's standards require them to pretend these perspectives are equal, their reporting will inevitably distort the truth."

what it’s like to rent from brian fitterer’s IPG!
"Now we have to put in work orders online," Mack said. "She just started that after she pepper-sprayed one of the tenants. Then she put out a letter saying we had to email or call for everything. I called today — no one answered. But I saw them in the office, so I came down and said, 'Hey, I've got this money for the rent.' She comes back with a ledger and the money order and says, 'No, we can't accept this. I asked why. She says, 'You owe eleven hundred something. I said, 'You told me $11." This, she said, is part of a larger pattern of neglect and obstruction. Maintenance requests are now tightly controlled, and even blocked. "Now people are going down and having [Tinal sign a receipt copy, because they have so many days to fix something. But she locks the door. You have to call her — and she's blocked some tenants. Not everyone here has Internet." "She's out of control," Cavitt said. "When I told her about the piss in the carpet, she said, 'That's not high on my priority list.'" Maintenance apparently stripped the floor after the words "Nasty" and "Stank" were painted on the carpet. Mailboxes remain open and unsecured. A laundry room has a sink clogged with moldy water. closes. Sometimes it latches. Sometimes it doesn't. It needs replacing because this stuff affects us too." There are four reported code violations regarding faulty doors, according to city data. 1 Minneapolis City of Lakes Violation Details Total count ool There are over 104 Tier 3 code violations between 2215 Blaisdell Ave and 2119 Pillsbury Ave. City Dashboard Data shows there are 5 violations for faulty door locks between the two properties. "No, what needs to happen is people need to quit breaking it," Johnson replied. "This is a city issue. Call 911, even if you don't think the police will show up." "It is frustrating when we fix stuff and people keep breaking it," Johnson said. "My staff is working extremely hard. You know how long it's going to take to get this property where it needs to be? Probably a couple of years." "I want to see things get better for everyone," Cavitt replied. "Maybe we could have a running list of what's getting fixed or what's on the radar." "I'm not going to do that for you," Johnson said. "It's dangerous for me and my staff to be here." "What about the assault I dealt with last fall?" Cavitt asked. "What makes your safety trump ours?" Cavitt said. "Just food for thought."
