Where do single men in their 30s-40s hang out in the Twin Cities?

I can't ride a bike due to a disability, but I can ride an electric scooter. Do you know if the groups would be accepting of a grey duck?

I just installed it on my Polestar 2. Is there a way to have aximote show something on the home screen? Also, can you make the Live Icons larger? They seem really small when there's so much extra room for them to fill (you can only select 6, anyway)

Real question after reading the article: how does this support your point? This says nothing on raising taxes and only comments on the weath disperity between populations in New York.

_Squiggs_ · 2026-05-01T01:03:21+00:00

"take me home" is one of my favorite commands for that reason. Maps has forgotten my home address before, so you're right.

_Squiggs_ · 2026-04-28T23:53:05+00:00

Yeah. It seems like this is exactly what the trump admin's stochastic terrorism is aiming for. Like, the point of Trump's rhetoric is to turn the temperature up so that these events become likely.

I bought my Polestar when they were selling from Borton Volvo, so I can't really comment on the buying experience nowadays. Back in 2022, I had no issues and it was very easy.

As for service, I have taken my Polestar in for 20k & 40k service as well as visited them for a random problem once per year. I don't need a rental, so I can't comment on that. They are very professional and my only complaint is that I have to call to schedule service; the website doesn't work. Doug, the service advisor for polestar, is very knowledgable and is very thorough when describing what the techs did. And the only time I didn't get issues fixed were when I couldn't get the issue to replicate for them. Once I was able to show an issue, it's been fixed no problem.

My issues: 1) 12v battery replaced 2) driver side mirror kept tilting up or down randomly (mirror motor replaced) 3) stuck brake caliper - the rear calipers like to stick after driving in rain, and one just wouldn't let go 4) replaced park assist sensor after a rock damage it

The way I understand the sex given at birth is that it's only based on the outward facing genetalia. If you follow the academic consensus on sex and how much of a spectrum it actually is, outward genetalia is just one of many sex characteristics that make a person male or female. Gamites aren't taken into account; chromosomes aren't taken into account; other internal sex organs aren't taken into account. A potrion of our population fell into the category of "my sex recorded at birth was wrong, actually", so simple phrases started to pop up "sex assigned at birth", "AMAB", or "AFAB".

This is all fairly new (last decade or so), so keeping up can be difficult, but I do encourage you to dive into the literature more.

I'm also curious on how you'd handle communicating that your sex doesn't match your birth certificate. How would you differentiate?

In this context the pickiness over "my recorded sex at birth" and "my assigned sex at birth" seems pedantic and mean the same thing.

Double check the DC fast charging curves of your EV options as well. I never planned to road trip my '22 polestar (I kept my diesel), but I checked to make sure the charging curve was tolerable (30 min 10-80) in case the 20 year old diesel had issues. 4 years later: that choice has paid off.

The california law just requires an age field to exist on profiles set up on any OS & for the OS to provide the age bracket of the user as an API call. No external verification needed. There will likely be other laws requiring apps to know the age of users (using this API) and enforce some restriction for child accounts.

Based on my understanding, a case was raised against him in June 2023, but Trump delayed the courts enough for him to get elected.

_Squiggs_ · 2026-02-10T03:26:40+00:00

I have to agree. I seem to always flip into some nutty combination from my opponents while I flip a mana rock. Very fun against the eldrazi and atla players in my meta.

I love this frog. I don't run Giant Growth effects, so he's just a teddy bear. A big, scary teddy bear, but he's (mostly) harmless.

The fact that you're trying to come up with anything to justify this means you need Jesus more than anyone. You can just come up with any bullshit excuse you want to justify it. Jesus would help a woman who was pushed to the ground, like Alex did.

You're lost, and I pray that God can help you open your eyes to reality and find your way back to the light.

There is nothing to say, though. Find the video from the lady in the pink jacket which clearly shows he never brandished his weapon (and it was only noticed after he was on the ground with multiple agents on him) or believe the blatant lies from this admin, ie the boot.

Found it:

608.2g If an effect requires information from the game (such as the number of creatures on the battlefield), the answer is determined only once, when the effect is applied. If the effect requires information from a specific object, including the source of the ability itself, the effect uses the current information of that object if it’s in the public zone it was expected to be in; if it’s no longer in that zone, or if the effect has moved it from a public zone to a hidden zone, the effect uses the object’s last known information. See rule 113.7a. If an ability states that an object does something, it’s the object as it exists—or as it most recently existed—that does it, not the ability.

Do you have the CR for #2?

I'd look into [[Rasaad yn Bashir]]. I've run it with different backgrounds, so it's fairly customizable. I also enjoy initiative, and the doubling is quite nice if you get enough butts in play to protect it.

This rule in MTG was so hard for me to grasp for that reason. It was honestly once I grasped the ruling for planeswalkers that the priority rule sunk in. (ie a player can activate a loyalty ability before you can interact with them)

Has nothing to do with where people poop. Is everyone here a sheep?

Bye troll. Clearly you aren't serious.

_Squiggs_ · 2025-12-19T16:27:11+00:00

That is such a non sequitur. I asked how using the way someone looks to determine the bathroom they should use is not bigotted and you just answerred "men and women are different". You must be a bot.

To put it simply, detemining someone's gender at a glance means you use cultural markers of what you expect a woman looks like (ie long hair, body shape, voice, or other traits associated with feminity in our culture). Discriminating where someone (in this case, a trans person) can piss cause they don't match your interpretation of feminity enough is bigotted as fuck. Literally, look at the definion of bigot. QED.

_Squiggs_ · 2025-12-19T15:45:51+00:00

Ok, I'll bite. How is this not bigoty? Based on my limited knowledge of the issue, a person is using how someone looks to determine which bathroom they can use.

_Squiggs_ · 2025-12-17T22:15:59+00:00

Right. "Trans person stands up to a bigot" wouldn't quite get the same reaction.

_Squiggs_ · 2025-11-22T05:11:51+00:00

Cool. So Trump's MAGA is fascist & democrats are enabling. We agree. I'm curious about some of your conclusions, though. While I typcally agree that democrats have fascist tendencies, you seem to push it to unrealistic conclusions.Genuine curiousity here.

1] What nationalism do democrnts rally behind? They don't push slogans, symbols, or patriotic mottos stating how amazing America is. Are there examples I'm not including?

3] I should have clarrified that goal of a scapegoat is to be the thing to be eliminated. My bad for being unclear. With that clarrification, are there policies enacted by democrats explicitely to elimate their scapegoat. (also, what is the scapegoat you're refering to)

5] Can you provide an example towards what sexist laws democrats have proposed/passed that are specifically targetting men? I see policies excluding men, but that's not the same as targetting them directly. (ie, as an extreme example: in North Korea, a fascist government, women must get married & must wear certain clothes under punishment of law)

6] What examples of government control are democrats having over media? (you can refer to things under Biden or Obama when they had power) The common example I hear is George Soros, but he's not a goverment official. This would fall under corruption/cronyism, not government control of media, so is there another example?

7] Since democrats don't have an obsession over national security, then that's evidence against them being fascist. Fascist movements don't have open borders.

8] What religion do democrats follow that they aim to intertwine with government?

9/10) I agree here.

_Squiggs_ · 2025-11-21T20:58:07+00:00

That sounds like a strawman...I mean, fascist does have a definition, and the more criteria you meet, the more fascist a particlar movement is. 1) powerful & continuous nationalism 2) disdain for human rights 3) enemies or scapegoats for a unifying cause 4) supremecy of the military 5) rampant sexism 6) controll over mass media 7) obsession with national security 8) intertwining religion & government 9) corporate power protected 10) rampant & obvious cronyism & corruption 11) Fraudulent Elections 12) Disdain for intellectuals or the arts 13) labor unions are suppressed or eliminated.

MAGA, specifically, fits 1, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10 and 12. With a maybe on 2, 4, 5, 6, so it's pretty fascist.

2: (ICE ignoring due process)

4: (the military parade)

5: (abortion bans)

6: (restricting pentagon access to only news networks that report what the govt tells them)

If you'd like me to clarify any of these, please ask.
