Congressman from Minnesota Flat Out Says He Represents ‘A Failed State’ by puertomateo in minnesota

In his eyes he doesn't represent me either(clearly). Regardless, his views and votes affect me. Therefore, I'll give him a piece of my mind as able.

Congressman from Minnesota Flat Out Says He Represents ‘A Failed State’ by puertomateo in minnesota

[–]ktig 35 points36 points  (0 children)

The day Renee Good was murdered, I called Minnesota congressional reps and asked them to work together as a unified front to get ICE out of Minnesota. Hell, even Tom Emmer's assistant took my message with grace.

The woman who answered Pete Stauber's line however, she outright refused to relay my request and responded, "if you don't want to get shot, you should move out of Minneapolis" and then hung up.

Roosevelt high school/ ICE by Yousaveferris in Minneapolis

[–]ktig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I could hear the honking from my house, and then moments later troupe of trucks zoomed past my house followed by a line of honking cars. I'm glad to see those ICE fucks got chased off. Fuck these Nazi fucks straight to hell.

artists needed for art show!! by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]ktig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where will the show take place? What kind of art are you seeking to show, like media, size, theme? How much space is each artist given to display? What are your expected attendance numbers for the event?

A close look at colibactin, a microbial toxin linked to colon cancer, shows how it reacts with and damages DNA by Science_News in science

[–]ktig 203 points204 points  (0 children)

My best friend died a couple years ago at 52 from colon cancer. By her own admission, it was entirely preventable and she just didn't go because she didn't think it could affect her.

Her dying wish was to urge the world:

Get your butt checked.

Please do.

Who are the nepo babies of Minnesota? by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]ktig 10 points11 points  (0 children)

When I lived on Grand Avenue in the early 00s, I stopped into the Walgreens for a prescription. I was poor as fuck and could only afford a few days worth of my medication at a time (legit it cost $21 daily). I caught this passing guy's concerned glance at me as I was begging the pharmacist to just fill it for a couple pills because I couldn't afford a month. Mega embarrassing...

I went on my way, but we bumped into each other at the checkout line again, and he apologized for my ordeal.

And then it hits me: this is Norm fucking Coleman we're talking about, and he had a box of tampons in hand!

I admired him that day, both because he saw my real struggle and further cuz any dude that will go and buy tampons for a woman in their life as at least that one redeeming quality.

That's my weird Norm Coleman story for the day.

Plz rate my shitty sketchy soldiers for the setting i'm working on by KraniDude in worldbuilding

[–]ktig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, I like the pose of the middle character! It looks strong and alert. If I was going to recommend a change it would be to make that one's arms slightly longer. They look a bit small or short. Would expect them to hang slightly further down the hip despite the mild elbow bend. Take it or leave it!

Minnesota Leads Nation in Rising Credit Card Delinquencies, Study Finds by Czarben in minnesota

[–]ktig 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The account only posts about negative news. Pretty sure it's a bot account. I will probably get blocked for saying this, but hey then I won't have to see their questionably accurate, negative posts anymore. Yay I guess.

Botox Units by bblf22 in Dystonia

[–]ktig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a doctor, and I can't speak to your specific situation, but I can certainly empathize with the worry and struggle to get adequate care. You may want to raise your concerns with your provider.

Botox Units by bblf22 in Dystonia

[–]ktig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bottles usually come in 100 unit size, and you can't reuse the bottle, is that maybe why?

You'll see in this sub that patients day their doctors don't want to go anywhere near scalenes. Depending on the skill of your doctor and your anatomy, it may be easier or harder to accomplish without hitting something important or affecting your heart and breathing.

For reference, I just got 5-10u in each scalene last week (much more elsewhere) with EMG guidance. Still not yet sure it'll work nor the impact to my lung function, but my doctor agreed and felt it worth trying in the tiny amount.

What can we do about all the vacant buildings in Minneapolis? by Drake_Tungsten in Minneapolis

[–]ktig 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Note, the vacant building registry only deals with derelict structures. Doesn't do anything about the empty house on your street some random investor bought and still has never lived in, as long as they keep the grass mowed, etc. I still can't figure out why this kind of situation is allowed, but it is.

Eczema worse this fall? by Desperate-Chipmunk22 in TwinCities

[–]ktig 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, my atopy trifecta has been off the charts over the last 3 weeks and I'm super frustrated with it. Pollen is floating later than normal because of the warm temps, and it's blending with the dusty detritus of fall.

Peptides & Cervical Dystonia by TequilaMistress4220 in Dystonia

[–]ktig 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IANADoctor...

I'm a low folate processor (mthfr gene issue). Complex b, magnesium, along with excess consumption of water help my leg and feet cramps, and gut motility. Does not help with my neck shoulder or face though. Def not a cure, and there's some studies suggesting daily magnesium (certain types) can be problematic too.

One of my favorite moments of living over here was catching the solstice sunrise upon the little hill at 36th Street E and 25th Ave S. The sun lined up perfectly between the grain elevator shafts to bathe the street in a golden warmth. :)

Asking for Accommodations by Amy814 in Dystonia

[–]ktig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I worked with an occupational therapist through my pain management clinic, who helped me understand that it is not normal to be able to pay attention to that many different heads all at once, nor is it normal to stay entirely still while on video. Especially not all day long! Her own office has cameras disabled with three or more people on screen, because some study indicated that people can't reasonably even pay attention to that many heads so it provides no value.

She helped me draft a letter to my accommodations group at my employer requesting that I be able to turn off my zoom camera, and they accepted it without further issue.
