I sort of feel like all the women trying to recreate Carolyn Bessette Kennedy’s style with that wide plastic headband most definitely were not alive in that era. Because anyone that actually wore those things in the 90s (and everyone did, including me) recalls the sheer and unending pain involved. It felt like the headband [...]

Walking in a winter wonder…

Claire — Thu, 19 Feb 2026 15:36:35 +0000

Winter Wonderland indeed. Last night when the snow started falling I remarked that it looked a bit like November—a light snow falling on a ground almost devoid of older snow. This morning it looked like mid-December where you can get just smacked by the weather. We got 5.5 inches in our area. The airport got [...]

And so ends Operation Metro Surge. Maybe. I trust this administration about as much as I trust my cat when she promises to stop waking me up at 4 am. But even if there is a significant draw down, this isn’t ending. ICE completely fell on its ass (sometimes literally) trying to get Minneapolis to [...]

The More Things Change…

Claire — Wed, 04 Feb 2026 16:24:48 +0000

Don’t kid yourself. Homan saying 700 feds will be removed from the city leaves 2,000 here. Nothing will change. Agents will still carry on harassing and terrorizing residents for the crime of existing. If ICE would just stop impeding Minnesotans civil, constitutional and human rights, then maybe Minnesota will back down. Until someone is held [...]

Normalcy in an Abnormal City

Claire — Tue, 03 Feb 2026 16:23:55 +0000

I broke a tooth last week. Never done that before, but with everything breaking right now I figure it’s par for the course. My body tends to get upset when the whole is ignored for one part. So I think my teeth were like, “Fuck your boobs. Pay attention to us.” Mission accomplished. Anyway: no [...]

The Danger of False Confidence

Claire — Mon, 26 Jan 2026 19:36:50 +0000

I will say this: you underestimate Minneapolis and St. Paul at your own peril. This state does not fuck around when it’s threatened. You may think you've won a battle or two, but we will win the war. [...]

I am in love with whoever edits/creates Quartiles. Every week or two there’s a little nod to something in the letter blocks that makes me laugh. This one is perhaps my favorite so far (spanning two days and counting). [...]

Lizards on ICE

Claire — Thu, 15 Jan 2026 19:07:56 +0000

It was only a matter of time I suppose, until ICE invaded my neighborhood. Last week they arrested a person in the parking lot of a nearby grocery store. The man was a descendant of the Red Lake Nation. Who seems to have more right to this “homeland” than those assholes. It also goes to [...]

And Now for Something Completely Different

Claire — Sat, 10 Jan 2026 18:21:13 +0000

I won’t add anything to the cacophony of people weighing in about Renee Good’s shooting. Except to say that, when you shoot someone three times in the face (while holding your cellphone), and the first thing after that vehicle crashes to think to say is, “Fucking bitch” then there is something fundamentally broken in you. [...]

Dear ICE

GET THE FUCK OUT OF MY STATE. [...]
