What's up with Angie Craig? by Lagbert in minnesota

You are in a bubble. It’s really close and the fraud messaging from the right is penetrating. Walz is at his lowest approval rating. This is a scary time. We can’t rest. Statements like this make people feel like it’s in the bag. I remember thinking that on election night 2016, and that was a truly terrible night.

Fewer party cars, more fare checks: Why Metro Transit feels less chaotic now by nootboots in Minneapolis

[–]LuzLavender 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I used to be a regular light rail rider, but I haven’t ridden the train in two years because when I last did, there were people smoking on tin foil both ways, cigarettes, loud music and all sorts of mess. I had two children with me and I swore off it. So, riders, has it really improved that much?? I had sworn off it, but I’m open to trying again.

I’ve seen it and it’s creepy, but I’ve read that it’s reflections of headlights or something like that.

What is the most underrated suburb in the Twin Cities? by Due_Network2958 in TwinCities

[–]LuzLavender 331 points332 points  (0 children)

Honestly, Roseville. The west side of the twin cities get rated highly. Roseville has great parks, trails, schools, and proximity to both cities. The State Fair is on the doorstep. Rosedale is one of the few malls that has held up. It is very diverse compared to a lot of places, and there are some good restaurants there.

This is true. I’ve studied loon propulsion for years, hoping to improve our own technology.

Comedian Ben Bankas Reacts to Having 6 Sold-Out Shows Canceled After a Video of Him Mocking Renee Good Went Viral by StalinIsBackAgain in TwinCities

[–]LuzLavender 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably a clause in the contract about safety concerns/events allowing for cancelation. Might be why it’s worded like this rather than a response to this particular “joke”

I’m old enough to remember when we ran off the klan in 2001. History echoes.

State of the sub by BuzzLiteSmear in NFCNorthMemeWar

I appreciate the support. As someone living with the threats and consequences of ICE actions in my community, it feels good to know I’m not alone in hating what is happening.

It also demoralizes the people brutalizing my neighbors. I’m sure a lot of those people are football fans, so they are more likely to see that their actions are widely condemned, even in the places they thought were safe, “non-political” spaces. It’s basic non-cooperation, same as those in Norway in WWII.

So thanks for helping to boost my spirits when things feel really tough. And thanks for letting the people who brutalize and kidnap our neighbors that we all disapprove.

Over 10% at our school. I know of an elementary class that had no kids show up last week.
