I don’t even freaking recognize him, that’s like.. Sir Fieri. Dad Fieri, no longer Crazy Uncle Fieri.

moderntimescafempls Hello, My name is Dylan. I own Modern Times Cafe in South Minneapolis and have for 15 years. Modern Times is on the corner of 32nd and Chicago Ave; 6 blocks from where George Floyd was murdered, 3 blocks from where Renee Good was executed, and a mere neighborhood away from where Alex Pretti was murdered. After ICE Agents shot and killed Renee and then Alex, I was at the scene within hours. I witnessed hostile and aggressive armed goons sent by the Federal Government protecting each other from unarmed, outraged citizens. I bore witness to these atrocities and was tear-gassed, smoke bombed, and concussion grenaded alongside my neighbors. Minneapolis has been living through the abhorrent horror of the federally sanctioned abduction of our neighbors, public executions of people exercising their rights, and a targeted escalation of government violence. It's an atrocious and despicable occupation. We are entering yet another week of this occupation with a deep sense of dread and mourning. We absolutely cannot go on as we have. am sick of generating money for the soldiers in our streets and for a government that won't protect us - a government who is actively inflicting daily harm on its citizens.

Effective tomorrow we are done making money for the fascists that occupy our city. We refuse to generate taxes under the guise of a functioning for-profit capitalist business aligned with government strategy. Amidst many strategic pivots and determined leadership, Modern Times has been barely soluble since 2020. Therefore, for the remainder of the government occupation, we will function as a free and donation based restaurant, Post Modern Times. Everyone is welcome EXCEPT ICE. Hours will not change but our menu will be smaller. Staff agreed to be present on a volunteer basis, working from shared tips and community donations. Post Modern Times is a small stance amidst a gigantic fight that may shape the future of this country. I am inspired by the ways our community has grown together, our hearts breaking open, to give and receive care in all the ways we can. May we continue to see each other in the streets.

Modern Times is a South Minneapolis staple, and a personal favorite haunt. For the duration of the occupation they're renaming themselves Post Modern Times and going to a donation-only model. Everyone but ICE can eat for free.

I never had any impact on the internet but I did draw this and went kinda viral on Twitter many years ago. Haven't been able to make anything like it sense but still one of my all time favorite art pieces.

That circled around to a completely different form of art than i expected XD I hope you get to the bottom of the breathing problems, fingers crossed it’s something simple and benign!

Vaccines aren’t just to protect your pet (or you!), they’re to increase herd immunity and protect others who are compromised. Be smart.

He’s a WOO BABY

He also has vocal opinions on songs with whistling in them, which means my country playlist is in danger of duets 🤣 #belgianmalinois #malinois

I am truly bad at video games and I should stream my next play, lmao

My memory is so bad, Exo, that I promise when I visit next for a spell we can record my next playthrough! I’ll tell you I’ll decide to just use no weapons and punch everyone but the first sign of a fight I’m suddenly sneak archer XD

I’m sharing this video again because people don’t really get what these data centers and ai are doing to our planet and our communities. Especially Black communities because they were strategically placed there.

I need you to listen to these people.
STOP USING AI. STOP SUPPORTING AI.

Learned helplessness.
Really feeling it lately.

P.S. we still have the truck but this will just be a second car for errands and dog things! I’m extremely blessed to be with someone whose standards align with my own regarding prioritizing the mental & physical wellbeing of their dogs/pets. I would do the same. Whisper & Maple deserve it.

Get you a spouse that buys a whole car for the dogs today bc the truck is too tall for the new pup 💅

Well, we needed a beater anyway w/better mileage but the decision was expedited due to Whisper being scared of the truck. I couldn’t be more proud of my love 🥰

Training is starting! #malinois

Thank you! I think he’s going to come out of his shell and really shine ❤️

He did beautifully meeting Maple!

HE’S HERE

He got a full entourage welcome with @wyla.bsky.social @exoditedragon.bsky.social & @wxdragon.bsky.social ❤️

We’re heading straight back to Indiana, he’s doing so well. I think he’s going to settle in beautifully once we acclimate him & take care of his medical needs. 🥰

Thank you! I’m excited to help Al get this dog, he’s too young to just throw away because lack of space and some health problems :(

Omg how did I forget you have a maligator tooooo?!? I love the names! Al just lost their old Mal mix and decided we wanted to rescue a dog in need and happened across this lil guy. :3 We’re about halfway to Texas rn with their current dog!

I think we’re going to see what his vibe is but that’s cute!! My friend @wyla.bsky.social has a rescue Mal named Rowan, so we’ll have a lot to ✨bark✨ about XD

Say hello to our newest family member ❤️ Beautiful purebred young Malinois with medical needs - we received approval yesterday so we’re on our way to Texas with Maple to pick him up!

Name suggestions? We were thinking tree themed but open to anything!
