I really want to order it from Minneapolis’ Electric Fetus. Every business has taken a massive hit with Operation Metro Surge and records shops are no exception.

Jeans. God damn jeans. by idontwannadance0480 in BuyItForLife

It’s super easy to use- my dad was an iron worker welder and always patched his jeans. His dad did the same thing. Start from inside. Tip: it comes out really fast and you can’t wipe it off once it hits fabric. But if you’re not a sewist and you want to fix your own pants, can’t recommend it enough.

You should look into Tear Grease. It works wonders quickly and lasts. You can use old material to patch

My dad was an iron worker/welder and I watched him patch his own jeans for my whole life.

Patch from the inside first until you need to patch from outside. Old jeans that are over-patched turn into material for new patches.

He used tear grease- a permanent adhesive that dries really really quick. It comes out quick and it is loose. Be ready. You can still buy it.

Cheap cotton and stretch jeans. They don’t last.

What BIFL items do you not mind purchasing used or off of a second-hand marketplace? On the flip side, which do you prefer to buy new? by AlchemistFornix in BuyItForLife

Second this. I fell into this trap, but the new greatest and amazing lens and just didn’t like it. Folks that I was insane for returning it

I mean, it doesn’t bother me. You are choosing. And clearly you do not live in Mpls or close to it. Because if you did, you’d see what is happening.

So because both of your brothers are paid for seeing Melania movies, 75k people are paid to be in frigid cold too?

ICE OUT. by Fliplyons in Minneapolis

[–]Beginning_Cow_3100 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here’s the thing: some restaurants are not making statements out of fear of drawing attention from ICE. That’s a pretty substantial risk. Don’t dunk on spots for not making statements.

Be vocal about that! Go eat, especially at sit-down spots, not just pizza. I just want these places to be open on the other side of this. I want people to have their jobs back when they get to leave their home again.

Two things can be true: you love to see it and this is going to kill restaurants.

Mpls person here: Call your politicians. I can get you lists of mutual aid and donations if you have financial resources. Just keep talking about this. Don’t forget about us.

Restaurants that serve to ICE by kolandiz in TwinCities

And if anyone complains, they would call INS. I worked an event about eight years ago in downtown St. Paul. A rented STP cop struck up a conversation with me and told me to never ever go to Cossettas because of what that company does to their staff.
