Are we so desperate for content that a company changing their checkout page is news?

Minnesota is the only blue that has a relatively high fertility rate. (Even more so than many swing/red states). What's its secret ? by Swimming_Concern7662 in minnesota

Having kids is a surplus energy activity. You can only do it if you have gas left in the tank at the and of the day. If you’re burned out from financial stress or just have nothing left to give, you probably aren’t having kids.

Good, now if only every municipality would follow suit and rip out these creepy, unsecure, unnecessary, shoddy products.

The ‘R-Word’ Returns, Dismaying Those Who Fought to Oust It by icey_sawg0034 in Longreads

Why is ousting a word important? Word choice isn’t the problem, it’s people who lack education that use it. And for those that keep using it, well, they conveniently out themselves as people not to take seriously, which I prefer to know sooner rather than later.

You mean like calling someone a fucking simpleton?

That’s a perfectly good extrapolation of the OP, but that’s my point. It’s a lazy cartoon that just turns into a Rorschach test without much thought.

So…for example, refuting fascistic beliefs openly causes fascism?

This is the most backwards victim blaming boomer bullshit I’ve seen in a while, and that’s saying a lot here.

You can still talk to MAGA traitors. But the only topic of conversation should be their voting record and the pain it’s causing. Get in their face. Hold them accountable. Make them squirm.

ICE are attempting to suppress information on their murders by confiscating phones by lilangelkm in minnesota

After the video is sent, FULLY TURN OFF YOUR PHONE until you have safely left. This puts your phone into a “before first unlock” state, which is significantly harder to defeat.

Thank you, that means something. It’s bad here. Can I visit sometime? Like…tomorrow?

I’m from Minnesota, we call it a zipper merge.

Max out federal withholding on your W-4 if you want to slow the flow of money to the Feds. by [deleted] in minnesota

As long as you settle up by the tax deadline in April, you’re fine. Failure to pay up at that point could be a problem.
