  1. Hey #TwinCities folks, Marissa is doing a reading at Bryant Lake Bowl! It's a fun event backed by a "futurist soundscape" from Martin Law.

  2. It would be an absolute delight for the #TwinCities to show up in such numbers for the #Minnesota15 that we overflow the overflow room AND have a crowd outside the whole time (3pm to 5:30ish TODAY) in the delightfully surreal exaggerated grassy hillocks of the Diana E. Murphy Federal Courthouse, 300 S 4th St, Minneapolis

    Nothing's been organized but i hope some people bring food so we have a real party atmosphere leading up to the press conference!

  3. Veterans For Peace Will Not Be Intimidated by U.S. Government Surveillance

    Veterans For Peace Statement - August 19, 2026
    [first screenshot below]

    #VeteransForPeace (#VFP) is not surprised by news reports that our #TwinCities VFP Chapter 27, along with activists and organizations associated with #DirectActionMinnesota (#DAMN), was targeted by the #DepartmentOfHomelandSecurity (#DHS) for #surveillance. The #Trump regime has repeatedly shown itself to be lawless and to have no respect for truth or the well-being of people in our country or around the world.

  5. I have just hit a milestone; 400 applications sent out since March. I have some interviews in the work now, but wow how time flies when you're looking for work. If anyone knows of any #cybersecurity positions open in the #twincities area or #remotework, please consider sending them my way!

  6. @ianrbuck The wild part to me is that it looks like a fairly high traffic road next to the building, so I assume there would be a decent amount of noise and disturbance from that. I can't imagine how an occasional bus would be better than consistent road noise + accidents.

    So this happened Thursday afternoon at #MSP #TwinCities #FAA

    Described as “brief” outage, but we arrived at our destination 3 hours late.

    Maybe they didn’t tell new hires not to play their favorite video games while on the job.

  8. After two Prince albums and a Morris Day album, I felt like I should keep the Twin Cities vibes going by listening to the debut Soul Asylum album for the first time in many years, back when they were called "Husker Jr" by critics due to their association with Bob Mould as producer.

  9. The low temperature this morning: 80 degrees (Fahrenheit -- about 27 Celsius).

    That's the *low* temperature. Dew point was 81F!

    Earlier this year, on January 23, the *high* temperature was -9F (about -23C).

    A difference of 89 degrees (or 50)!

    On that January day, I did go out for a couple errands, and every time I felt like an astronaut suiting up for a space walk and wanted to get back inside as fast as possible.

    This morning it was faster to go outside -- but I wanted to get back inside just as much as I did when it was cold.

  11. Worst air quality in state history: Officials escalate conditions to ‘hazardous’ in #TwinCities, central #Minnesota

    https://bringmethenews.com/minnesota-weather/officials-escalate-air-quality-alerts-in-twin-cities-central-mn-as-wildfire-smoke-worsens

    Wildfire smoke from 17 known wildfires in northern Minnesota and many more across the border in #Canada has been making its way south through Wednesday, with a smoky smell becoming increasingly prominent in the Twin Cities as the day wore on.
    The situation was so severe in the far reaches of northern Minnesota that it’s believed that a new record for air particulate pollution was set on Wednesday, touching over 600 AQI in West Duluth during the morning.
