We went to the north shore to bear witness to their absolute banger of a snow storm. Drifts as high as our shoulders
![Statement from Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan on White House Border Czar Tom Homan Saying ICE Surge in Minnesota Will Soon End
ST. LOUIS PARK, MN [02/12/26]—Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan released the following statement after White House Border Czar Tom Homan said ICE Surge in Minnesota will soon end:
“I’m relieved that this violent paramilitary force will be removed from our streets, but I won’t believe it until they're actually gone. Minnesotans stood together against this chaos and cruelty. We never gave up on our neighbors.
But I will never — EVER — forget nor forgive the fear, violence, and chaos the federal government has laid on our doorstep. ICE has killed two Minnesotans, Renee Good and Alex Pretti. and harmed so many more. Our children, like little Liam and Chloe have been targeted and traumatized. I will never forget the terrified looks on their faces. Our schools, our small businesses, and our churches have been targeted, closed, and harmed forever.
This is the first step in many to truly get justice for Minnesota. We must rip apart this agency that operates outside the law. The government must restore and repair what’s been broken. Minnesotans deserve justice and accountability, and I won’t stop until we get it.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:o6b6p7w54st6r7ze6nmjv4it/bafkreidw3lmpuazr36nmxoauyiqjtaiq7btte6vch7ks7x65wuuwlvjgiy)

The Twin Cities are still occupied, and we're still documenting the invasion.

And I work for a somewhat prominent healthcare system. Like give me an employee discount or something?
the fact that Sandwich Guy is facing this 'wich trial at all is evidence of subpar justice. he is a hero being put through the judicial grinder. i hope the jury wraps up a not guilty verdict without delay or loafing around
I went to St. (Saint?) Paul! I saw the Alebrijes, met one of the artists. Found raspberries on Raspberry Island. My St. Paul enthusiast friend brought me to Penzey’s to use my gift card and get the Sichuan Peppercorns for my husband
This guy sells maple syrup candy out of his beat up pickup truck on 61 in two harbors and also ships his stuff.
Pretty sure it’s a northern flicker
Cats Of Webber-Camden. Did not see a bodega cat but I’m told one exists.
Very high ceiling of a bathroom
Stickers smacked onto a paper towel dispenser. One says twink sniffer
I wager to say the bathroom in the California building in NE has the highest bathroom ceiling in all of Minneapolis
Stopped by a friends after my *first* therapy appointment and she had me planing cedar rice knockers while we drank bee balm tea and watched the squirrels and birds…which was like a bonus two hours of therapy
They’re just doxxing youth activist home addresses back in the day😂
I’m so sick of older squirrels asking when I’m going to have kits. YOU 👏 GREW 👏 UP 👏 IN 👏 A 👏 MAST 👏 YEAR 👏 GRANDPA 👏
Jason is one of the people working the hardest to make Minneapolis an even better place to live. They care for so many; it's time to care for them.

This is a story I never wrote about, despite having a folder of information about it, and it still haunts me. I am so glad John Edwards covered this.
Storm from last night is trying to turn our maple tree into one of those stupid tree pencils. Maybe the derecho tonight will finish the job. Other part of the tree landed inches from a bedroom
Vera’s Garden on Lyndale. It was a sanctuary for me as a queer teen from a conservative small town. I would drink their hibiscus tea and read the City Pages.

Random question. When walking down the sidewalk do you walk around these or do you just go for it?
It’s worse than we thought 🦠
How long until they cancel this?
