MAGA out-of-towners now review-bombing Dreamstate Cafe because they were providing food and drink to protestors after ICE killed Alex Pretti.

A lot of wishful thinking from MAGA folks on prediction markets right now.

Edit: through the first 18 days of 2026, ICE responsible for 2 of the 4 shooting victims in Minneapolis, and 1 of the 2 homicides.

Ward 11 was very wise to not elect this person.

ICE is responsible for the *only* shooting and homicide in Minneapolis so far in 2026.

Congrats to the newly-elected board of @eastbankmpls.bsky.social, which represents far more residents than any other neighborhood org. After staying on board to help with the merger of neighborhood orgs, I’m grateful to these wonderful volunteers — the org is in (many) good hands!!

The park formerly known as Marcy is now officially Dinky Park! Thanks to neighbors who picked the new name, thanks to @eastbankmpls.bsky.social for leading the charge, and thanks to MPRB for approving the change.

Just got a rent renewal offer in Marcy-Holmes with zero increase in rent through Aug 2026. Adjusted for inflation, my rent will have *gone down* 8-10% in real terms vs 2022 when I moved in. $795 in 2022 vs $825 in 2026. Grateful to everyone who has worked on housing abundance here over the years!

I don’t see evidence to support this. Cashman/Burnett losses the biggest counterpoints. Progressive pickup in W8 would have happened regardless. Council already swung left w/o a mayoral race in 2023, now Park Board got their turn. 2021 had backlash to skyrocketing crime amidst Defund Police

54.3% of Ward 7 voters picked Frey as their first choice — Frey’s best Ward outside of Ward 13 — so while Katie Cashman did slightly outperform the Fateh/Davis/Hampton trio, it wasn’t enough.

Moderate-vs-Left council races that diverged the most from first-choice mayor votes in same ward: W3 (Rainville +24 over Frey) W4 (Vetaw +15 over Frey) W10 (Millard +11 over Frey) W1 (Strahan -9 compared to Frey) W12 (Thompson -8 compared to Frey) W8 (Bassais +6 over Frey) W2 (Madore +5 over Frey)

Voter #14 at 3-08 in Minneapolis. Beautiful morning to rank my favorites!

4:3 conversion on Lowry from 94 bridge to the river bridge! Nice safety improvement for all road users by the county, using only paint adjustments. Closes a bike lane gap where you previously had to ride a narrow sidewalk.

Pink Brony Club? Candy Cowboy? All I know is that I had a rootin’ tootin’ heckuva good time riding the Scaredy Cat alley cat ride/race put on by Bonesaw. And don’t worry, that’s just dried jackfruit (my secret weapon) in my holsters.
