I just got my very first person to person email which was obviously written by AI. This is like the time I caught COVID like 3 years after everyone else.

Seven Urbanism Lessons from the Minnesota State Fair
Much like Al’s Breakfast, the State Fair revels running against the conventional wisdom about what Minnesotans want in an urban experience. That’s one of the big reasons I enjoy going, …

Historians will study this era. A whole crop of PhDs will try to explain why we thought putting ground, granulated rice or rice crispies on roasted vegetables made them fancy. I may not see this damage undone in my lifetime.

Using fencing to curb homelessness in the Twin Cities is an insult
Agencies and governments turn to fencing instead of actual solutions for problems related to people experiencing homelessness.

Portland bar and club managers talk about "It" happening like medieval Europeans talked about Prester John. Times are bleak now, lads, but one elderly man's failing organs are all that stand between us and 150 million Americans launching a drinking binge.

Every day, but especially on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, we're reminded of the systemic racism that plagues every part of the U.S. criminal legal system – from arrest to sentencing and even reentry. Here's what the data shows 🧵
Infographic card with quote: “There must be a recognition on the part of everybody in this nation that America is still a racist country. Now however unpleasant that sounds, it is the truth. And we will never solve the problem of racism until there is a recognition of the fact that racism still stands at the center of so much of our nation and we must see racism for what it is.”
