NO WEAKNESSES AT THE SKYWAY My first pandemic live show. The second the Menzingers start “America,” I am both going to start a pogo pit and burst into uncontrollable tears.
anyone looking for Ruston Kelly tix? Gonna be in Denver that weekend so looking to unload them (just looking for face value, I think it was like 65 after taxes for the pair)
Here’s all the candidates for mayor / city council — A guide to the 2021 Minneapolis mayor and City Council candidates I still hold a grudge against Fletcher for beating Ginger in 2017, but he looks leagues better than the other two running in Ward 3 I’m skeptical about Shiela and am concerned that she will turn out to be all talk in the end, but I’d still take her over Frey or anyone else. Would also recommend anyone in Ward 2 to vote for Robin Wonsley Worlobah! Or at least donate if you’re not in there The ballot measures are here — What's on the ballot I honestly don’t know much about Question 1 except that I’m generally skeptical about giving more power to the mayor when the city council could have it. I don’t see the upside there, so I’d probably vote no Question 2 is getting rid of MPD and replacing it with the Dept. of Public Safety. I’d vote yes for sure Question 3 is to allow rent control. It should be noted that it wouldn’t even automatically create rent control, but would simply allow the city council to impose / control it if they so wished. I’d also vote yes Beyond all that, I have no knowledge of smaller elected spots like park board or whatever else
this is v helpful thank you! That’s how I felt about the ballot measures from what I read but didn’t know if there was some nuance I could be missing somewhere.
I’d push harder toward voting no on question 1. Right now a lot of executive power is spread across 13 council members. Consolidating that executive power under one strong mayor makes it a lot easier for fewer, wealthier interests to influence one person (or from all of that support to come from a limited geographic area of the city) as opposed to the current system of having to get a majority of 13 people who geographically represent the entire city by nature. Current system isn’t perfect but the whole “14 bosses” narrative being pushed for Yes on question 1 is pretty easy to pick apart.
just let me know! I won’t put them on sale in marketplace or StubHub til a week or so before the show probably
Anyone have Turnstile tickets they'd sell? Stubhub looks NUTS. Glad for them, but those are Taylor Swift prices.
@coleslawed still thinking you want my Ruston tickets? If not that’s cool, I was just gonna put them on StubHub toward the end of this week if not!
My band's got a show at the Terminal in a couple weeks, shamelessly gotta plug it here - It should be a lot of fun, all the bands playing are sick! Also, if any of y'all are in a band and wanna rip a gig ever just shoot me a message! Here's the event page!
man... if i could find a cheap flight for this weekend, i'd totally go to see all elite wrestlings' FULL GEAR event at the target center.
I just got mine. When I got my flu shot, the guy at CVS asked me if I wanted one. But obesity and anxiety also qualify you for them, FYI. Lean into your broken humanity and go get one ASAP.
