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.

I’m not taking any f*ing chances. We need to campaign hard and get out every voter we can. We all remember what happened last time the quants told us not to worry because it was statistically improbable.

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, …

But a dollar is a dollar. And it’s fair to ask if we can do one why we can’t do the other instead.

It’s probably because I’m 50 and sometimes think about old establishments that used to be- but this is one of my favorite Simpsons jokes. I don’t think 20 year old me would have anticipated that.

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.

I sang it with a choir once. We were repeatedly told to listen to each other rather than the PA system. The delay can trip you up. It’s easier to do if you have an in ear monitor. We didn’t have them but of most do. If you’re already trying to ignore distractions booing shouldn’t be hard.

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.
