The fourth Dungeon Crawler Carl book isn’t really hitting for me. It might be time to take a break and get into another book so I can return with new enthusiasm.

That’s just the top layer.

I’ve become a big fan of both Eagan and Woodbury! I like how every Saint Paul suburb has a good collectibles shop.

I heard the most amazing song on The Current today: “STAMPEDE” by Genesis Owusu. It took me back to listening to Bloc Party for the first time.

Being in Saint Paul is exposing me to many new suburbs.

Not electing Kamala Harris has got to be the
most colossal fuck up America has ever made .

She got fired the next day.

So far the war in Iran has cost an estimated $5.5 billion.

That's roughly $1 billion per day.

$41,666,667 per hour.

$11,574 per second.

People do not want this.

They want a living wage. They want healthcare. They want to be able to afford a home. They want their basic needs met.

I thought it was great!

Yeah, looks like a decent route and less than an hour!

Can you take me higher?

Them: "The new CEO of Target wants to be known for his candor."
Him on ICE: "Safety is our North Star. It guides everything we do and it's one of our core values."

I’ve been going to Target since I was a teenager and it was the default choice for just about every purchase. Not anymore.

This interviewer gave him the perfect opportunity to talk like a human and say “diversity is good and ICE is bad” and instead he piled up the soulless corporate speak. LOL. Good luck, Michael.

So glad we found this boy. One more day in the Humane Society and I bet he would’ve been gone with someone else.

During the daytime, Porky is off somewhere in the house doing his own thing. I’m used to apartment cats being right on top of me. I find not knowing where he is at all times a little unnerving.

Nola reports that when she woke up this morning, Porky was curled up in the crook of my leg.

3rd's pretty good!

This video comes up in my YouTube playlists on occasion and I love it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=A9Tp...

Perry: This St. Patrick’s Day, don’t forget Irish music’s anti-fascist roots Dropkick Murphys, the iconic Irish American punk band, are headlining a free block party March 6 near where Alex Pretti was killed by immigration agents, contributing columnist David M. Perry writes.

NEW “We’re celebrating a tradition that is at its core about resisting occupation and maintaining community in the face of horrors. You can’t keep politics out of Irish music. No one should try, for two reasons. First, it’s ahistorical. Second, Minnesotans are ready for a big anti-fascist party.”

I will continue to pay attention from the first minute of the season to the last but this is definitely the story arc.

When the annual “best bike cities” ranking comes out, it won’t matter where we land

If you’re building a bike network that allows people to do this, you’re winning and your goals moving forward should be:

1. Expand the network locally so anyone can do it

2. Share what worked with other cities

Shut your foolish mouth!
