Of course the Michael Shannon, Narducy, and Co. show is sold out. Wasn’t thinking on that one.

Spotify starves artists to pay this fuckin clown millions. It can feel daunting to leave if you've lived in it for years, but streaming music is a utility now, it's easier than you think to swap providers (and bring your playlists/library with you). Here's a good guide from @bcmerchant.bsky.social:

Yes, That Mancini’s: How a Legendary St. Paul Steakhouse Raised $35K for the Resistance - Racket ‘The Gathering for Good’ brought the West 7th neighborhood together.

One St. Paul native dubbed Mancini’s “the supper club most likely to be chosen for cop retirement parties.” But, this winter, the timeless steakhouse became an unlikely hub of anti-ICE activism.

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

Cause Of Death: Fox News Toward the end he sat on the back porch, / sweeping his binoculars back and forth / over the dry scrub-brush and arroyos, / certain he saw Mexicans

White House to pause $259M in Minnesota Medicaid dollars in fraud crackdown It’s the latest in a growing list of fraud-focused threats and probes from the Trump administration.

It’s hard to describe what it feels like when your government seems to want nothing more than to make your community suffer in every way possible.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people local newspaper reporters are rarified elites instead of ink-stained wretches driving their Honda Civic to a crime scene so you know don’t have to rely on Nextdoor and the police press release.

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”
