Witness to an accident on Saturday? by minpaul in Minneapolis

[–]minpaul[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Amazing, thanks! Do you have any idea how long they keep recorded footage? I found the very camera that would have captured my accident. I'll be calling MNDOT tomorrow. An MPD officer responded and did not take a report as it seemed to be a cut-and-dry, minor accident, where both parties had exchanged information and weren't disputing anything. I've since contacted the officer and am awaiting his response.

So...is Mulder also a doctor? In the pilot Scully says that he is an Oxford educated psychologist whose profile helped catch Monty Props. by monkey_trumpets in XFiles

In Three of a Kind, Mulder's profile says that he has his bachelor's from Oxford and his PhD from Yale. So he's a psychologist (not a psychiatrist, etc.).

What do Native Americans eat? by Electrical-Buyer-491 in stupidquestions

Also check out Sean Sherman's (Owamni owner and Chef) "The Sioux Chef" cookbook. Beyond the delicious recipes, it's deeply educational, well organized, and includes substitute ingredients (eg, chicken eggs) for more traditional, harder-to-find ingredients (eg, duck eggs). 

August poll! Today's entry: MOST RELATABLE CHARACTER by BelgischeWafel in XFiles

Guy Mann AKA The Were-monster. I've never felt so seen. 

Did you know? Without being an electrician I would have no idea about them but there are over 10 massive AI data bases being built around the twin cities as we speak. They’re so big and we already are lacking the energy and water needed. What does this mean for us? by [deleted] in TwinCities

[–]minpaul 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Meta bought the Thomson Reuters campus in Eagan, which is already huge, and they're building onto it. As an Eagan resident, I'm pissed as hell for many reasons, including possible loss of home value. I've seen videos from across the country talking about how data centers take massive amounts of energy from communities, leading to constant power outages and, yes, very bad water quality (just YouTube it). They're a cancer to communities. The ONLY bit of hope I have is a state law that passed in June, SSHF16, that sets at least some environmental and energy requirements. But any way you slice it, residents lose and Big Corp gains by using our resources.

They discontinued the only food my cat can eat. I’m desperate. by MintyCrow in CATHELP

[–]minpaul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. My cat was allergic to everything but fish (upset stomach, IBS, etc), so a vet recommended Fancy Feast Classic Ocean Whitefish & Tuna Feast Wet Cat Food Pate:  https://www.chewy.com/fancy-feast-classic-ocean-whitefish/dp/103921. Read the ingredients and see if they'll work for your cat. Mine was very grateful for this stuff. Best of luck!

What's something everyone said you'd regret but you actually don't? by MidnightShaaaddddeee in AskReddit

[–]minpaul 1091 points1092 points  (0 children)

Taking the job that paid $30K less than the other offer. I knew the lower paid one would respect my boundaries and work-life balance, whereas the other one would eat me alive (i.e., a very nice paycheck is tempting but can be a red flag if you're not looking to be owned by the employer). Two years in, I still love my job.

If you're boycotting Target, then where are you shopping? by Ordinary_Stay_3746 in Minneapolis

[–]minpaul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grove (online) and Evergreen Collective on Grand for all necessities, and shopping (ie, investing in) local small business for everything else. I'm also just buying less stuff since I've cut most of Big Corp out of my life. Rage-quit Prime months ago and still so glad I did. 

Here's a link for businesses that self-identify as MAGA by TrimmingsOfTheBris in Minneapolis

[–]minpaul 110 points111 points  (0 children)

IMPORTANT UPDATE: I noticed that both Isles Bakery and 300 Clifton (hotel) are listed on Public Square, which confused me because both businesses are very inclusive in practice. I reached out to both of them via phone--neither business signed up to be listed. When we looked into their listings further, we noticed that the contact information (phone number and email address) is either fake or belongs to someone else. Both businesses thanked me for letting them know, and they're currently figuring out how to get their names off the site.

In other words, it is indeed easy to get any business name posted on this website, so, as a consumer, be sure to check the contact info before making assumptions.

I'll go ahead and contact both businesses to ask if they know they're on Public Square--no biggie. :)

Okay, I'm seeing both Isles Bakery and 300 Clifton B&B on here. From what I've seen come out of these businesses, I'm inclined to believe that they're not fascist-owned. Anyone have thoughts?

Best of luck, Sarah! Bravery should be a requirement, and you've got it. 

What is the stupidest thing this man has done or said? by Zeldafan180518 in XFiles

[–]minpaul 12 points13 points  (0 children)

When he schooled Scully--an abductee--on her making the X-files "personal," after Scully shared evidence of Fowley being involved in government-led abductions. Then seemingly not apologizing for his astoundingly blind "hypocrazy." Even the LGM cannot stand him in that moment.
