I just took this picture at Armatage park in So Minneapolis after watching the fog develop. But then I just took a drive, and no where else is foggy right now. It’s entirely localized to this park

Park ball fields lit up behind dark trees at night. It is foggy

This is a picture I took in Boston 13 years ago.

Stops listed:
NORTH STATION
HAYMARKET

PARK STREET
BOYLSTON

The stop “BUTT” has been hand written in pencil, you’d be shocked to know.

Today in me being insufferable: A number of the zines and band posters inside that record shop, uh, belonged to me. The HF production design team borrowed* them from myself and other Chicago music scene/record store folks. The More You Know etc [*no I didn't get paid lol, I did it For the Culture]

Reporting the difference this way is a choice. How different would this story be if the headline was the inverse? They charge Medicare a reduced rate, not private insurance an increased rate.

Don’t know if I can just read past this

There's no question that Rivers Cuomo felt some paralysis after Weezer's 1994 self-titled album. Known colloquially as The Blue Album, it is a true achievement of '90s power pop-punk. <highlight added> Twelve perfect songs, produced by The Cars' Ric Ocasek, full of nerdy irreverence and offbeat songwriting that manages to stick like it's the fucking Beatles or something. But on top of this newly signed band releasing a well-constructed album, they became MTV darlings thanks

This is why streaming services are bad. The youth are not seeing the end of Old Yeller at too young of an age because they are just flipping through channels. I have a very healthy fear of rabies because of that movie.

Murder with a pen instead of a gun absolves the murderer of responsibility for his actions. The man who shoots a healthcare CEO is a murderer. The CEO who denies claims and then people die is an entrepreneur.

why do ppl think the oligarchs are going to give anything back to the community? why do ppl think a data center will solve our property tax increase that the CORPORATIONS have caused? capitalism DOES NOT care about us nor our communities, it only cares about profit. don’t be tech oligarch shill.

charlie rybak on twitter: Not to mention the fact that it's pretty clear the Star Tribune needs this money. When you see future budget cuts at the paper or budget cuts at the city level, remember this moment.

2 Screenshots from the move "Back to the Future Part III" (1990): First, a close-up of a handwritten letter on old, crumpled paper. The cursive script reads, "your friend in time, Emmett L. Brown, September 1, 1885." Second, Marty McFly, played by Michael J. Fox, stands in the rain at night with a look of shock and concern on his face as he reads the letter.
