  Hey, if anyone here in #Minneapolis is looking for a #car that has not-great-but-not-terrible gas mileage, manual transmission, and doesn't spy on you, check out this Craiglist listing: https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/cto/d/minneapolis-2008-toyota-matrix-6500-obo/7949455219.html I know, I talked shit about this car on here before. But it's not a bad car, it runs and drives well and it's better than a lot of the alternatives. Low mileage overall, just put in an almost-new JDL...

  Ugh the C2 key on the piano is getting stuck. It's an electric Yamaha with weighted keys, am I going to need to take it apart now...?

  Hi team, I'm looking for a #bicycle helmet that is rated for ebikes, is inexpensive, and will fit my oversized noggin (hat size 62cm or 7-3/4"). And ideally won't be too "sporty" looking. I was looking at Schwinn Avion, price and style are right but it's just a little bit too small for comfort. Does anyone have suggestions?

  Hey #music people who know about #piano education: I need a few books that will help me get from "was a promising student 30 years ago" to "can play acceptable parlor/swing piano" or at least keep me busy for a year or two on the way there. I can read music, I've played various instruments but very little piano since I was a kid. I'm thinking maybe a couple of technical etude books and some enjoyable music to play. I think I might have some Scott Joplin sheet music l...

  I'm spending too much time on social media today

  What is the story that we want to tell? What does a pluralist society with both political and economic democracy look like? How do we avoid demanding conformity of each other, even when our differences appear fundamental and irreconcilable? What is the fundamental promise of the left, rooted not in "immortal science" or other slogans, but in care and love of humanity and the world? The basic premise of pluralism is that in-group and out-group distinctions are important and pre...

  This is Vida Gomez, co-chair of Northern Nevada DSA: https://nitter.net/CubanInReno/status/2072173251632239042 This shit is all over DSA now. I'm doing tech workers organizing which also involves some local (Minnesota) DSA people. I don't know where the local branch stands at all. Do I confront them? Do I stay quiet until/unless something comes up? I don't know. I am not doing well #antisemitism #minneapolis

  In some ways we as a society are lucky that the #MN15 are who they are (not so lucky for them, I suppose), because this will help them to be heard and be the inspiration for the next generation. And there couldn't be a better inspiration. I have had the honor of knowing some of the defendants quite well, for a long time. We've gotten into it, we don't always agree on everything, which is as it should be. But I've always respected the hell out of them. It's easy to talk shit...

  Jan 23, not your social media "general strike" "Major labor unions in #Minnesota are supporting the call, including Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) Local 1005, SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, CWA Local 7250, and St. Paul Federation of Educators Local 28 — and organizers expect this list to grow." Even without the MFT, this list of unions is enough to bring the metro to a standstill if the membership actually participates. https://inthesetimes.com/artic...

  Would anyone like to help make a #CICD pipeline for a #Minneapolis community archive project? I am working on an @11ty website but I don't want to use GitHub Pages, Netlify, etc, but at the moment learning how to set everything up feels kind of overwhelming.
