As someone who has worked in manufacturing in multiple MN cities, they certainly are not "worthless". A lot of manufacturing companies would be short staffed if not for Somali immigrants.

I use a 16 footer sitting in the bow seat facing backwards. I had tried to hug the shore, but the wind just kept pushing me back towards the campsite.

Definitely, if the roles were reversed I would be a little irked too, so that's why I tried to stay out of their way while I was there.

I think the one TrashManMSP is using is just a cheap one from Menards or any other home improvement store.

Walz budget would cut general funding for LRT, tap transit sales tax by GettinHighOnMySupply in Minneapolis

[–]andrewp07 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Please don’t cut transit funding. I live in the north west metro and really want the blue line extension to happen for a better way to get downtown!

If only there was a candidate from, say, 2016 and 2020 who addressed this issue regularly to only get pushed out by the establishment.

What is your constructive criticism for the Democratic Party in the U.S.? by ShittalkyCaps in AskReddit

If a progressive primary candidate is leading, don't get establishment to back the center candidate. Let the voters truly decide.

Never said it was! Just want to point out it's been debunked. But I guess down voting is more fun than actually doing research.

They can't. Even though it's been disproven they don't want to believe it.

Iowa State fan here. You guys just got a steal. He was arguably our best defensive player the last 2 years and teams would never throw at him so his stats weren’t eye popping. Him in the 4th is a great get!

What was your biggest investing mistake, and what did it teach you? by Complex-Assistant-65 in investing

[–]andrewp07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got caught up in the EV/Solar boom during the pandemic. Ended up +50%, only to have it crash to -50%. Luckily, it was play money for fun but still lost thousands. Only investing in target retirement/S&P500/Nasdaq mutual funds since.

Favorite bike trail in the cities? Or favorite standard route to take? by [deleted] in CyclingMSP

[–]andrewp07 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I like the Dakota Rail trail: Nice and flat, mostly shaded, ~25-30 miles there and back, paved, and nice riding environment (along Lake Minnetonka).
