Minnesota - L'Étoile du Nord. Pro-Constitution. Up North is a place, not a direction. Go Wild.

I realized people didn't have a grasp of this when the East Wing was torn down and some Europeans were posting criticism that we weren't ALL protesting at the White House. Finally someone pointed out to a Londoner that they live further from DC than the Brit is from Moscow and it clicked for them.

I'm trying to figure out why on Earth you would need to conduct a pre-dawn raid on someone over paperwork their parent filed roughly 40 years ago. They probably had film crew at the ready, Kristy Noem-style. www.foxnews.com/politics/ilh...

I have liberal couple as neighbors. One is a LEO. (Probably not common, but it is possible to be both!) Their messaging is similar at times. The flag comes out when a coworker is injured or killed. I can understand it.

After everything that has happened to us so far, anyone still falling for his lies about Minnesota needs to get a mental evaluation.

Do not believe anything this administration is trying to spew! Minnesota is OBVIOUSLY not overcome with violence, murder, and mayhem! Incredibly sick lies from a federal government that wants to see its citizens suffer. Truly hoping no one instigates violence based on some old man's delusions.

Agree! Now, older parents expect to be sent pics and video of every life moment/meal, receive constant calls/Facetime, and even track their adult child's movement. I know a gma that used her grandkid's babycam while babysitting and once back home cont'd to monitor the family in secret. Gross!

When I became a parent I began to realize how bad my relationship with my mom was. Recently, she was MAD I had fun plans for my anniv because she and my dad "didn't do those things."🙄 Meanwhile, I WANT my kids to find joy and success. I LOVE when they get to do things I didn't. They don't owe me.

It is absolutely cruel. BTW, capital punishment varies from state to state in the US. Roughly half the states have banned it (guess which ones!). This was a state-led execution.

Same! The hallway carpet was brown (land) so I developed some careful aerobatics to swing myself off my doorframe and onto my bed that was positioned along the same wall as the door.

Mamdani certainly seems to be living up to the hype. This is what you get when you vote to lift each other up instead of cut each other down. Well done, NYC!

SEN. SCHMITT: You deny seeing Bon Jovi at State Farm Arena that night in Atlanta? You just perjured yourself. JACK SMITH: I don’t even like- SEN. KLOBUCHAR: There was a Bon Iver thing that night in Eau Claire. SMITH: That’s right, Amy. I saw you there. KLOBUCHAR: Living room deal. It was nice.

Are all of the books formatted for British English, then? I would prefer that if that was how the author originally wrote it, but not if the book was written in American English.

Even an educated person with a manual labor job doesn't have the same daytime ability to stop and read news or keep up with the daily changes that those in power are making. Phones are away and their hands are busy. Those w/ the lowest pay go to a 2nd job in the evening. No time to question things.

Great list. I never played your #4 and #8, so I'd replace them with Return to Zork and Castle of the Winds.

Use a Whirley Pop if you want the best popcorn, but the lid is difficult to clean. We have the color-changing one and it's always been a hit. whirleypopshop.com/product/whir...

This is insane. I was reading Orwell at age 14 in school. Under these rules, I wouldn't even be able to borrow the book from the library. And kids aren't allowed to purchase ANYTHING from the library bookstore? They can't even ENTER it?? How could even one person think this is a good idea? INSANE

I've always referred to a major interstate with as a freeway. Lesser, but still fast roads that have occasional stoplights are highways. With MN roads, 494 is a freeway, 61 or 52 is a highway. My daily world doesn't have tolls, but those are just toll roads if I'm in someplace like Chicago.

I figured I'd make an attempt to transition to MapQuest, but it already has no record of the second address I entered. It is a long-established address (not newly created for new construction or anything) so this is not looking promising.

This year's Minnesota State Fair felt like a big hug. My family was among those 204,000. It was crazy busy, but totally worth it. It was therapeutic to wander among so many rebel loon-wearing neighbors and view so many anti-fascist/pro-human pieces of art created by adults and children alike.

What on Earth is she talking about?? If anything, I have seen more faded Trump signs disappear and, instead, more blue campaign signs are popping up in places that never displayed any before. The shift is going the other way, lady!
