In the autumn of 1883, a national paper reported that "an Iowa woman has spent seven years embroidering the solar system on a quilt." Ellen Harding Baker used her stunning quilt to teach astronomy in an era when women could not attend college www.themarginalian.org/2018/12/06/e...

People saying what Amy Klobuchar was doing here looked tame do not understand the body language, tone, and affect of Minnesotans. She basically tarred and feathered this man in the town square while cackling with glee

Teach your son to wait. Teach him that other people are as important as he is. Teach him to apologize and go back to the end of the line if he made an entitled decision. Teach him that girls and women deserve respect in *all* scenarios—not just during sex.

🌟History trivia!🌟 Combining Minneapolis and St. Paul into one city seemed like a probable outcome in the 19th century. Back then, Minneapolis was in better shape than St. Paul, and one commentator suggested naming the combined city "Minnehaha": "Minne" for Minneapolis, and "haha" for St. Paul.

Correction: he’s preserved over *** $7 billion*** for Minnesotans, which the Trump govt tried to deny us. That’s roughly equivalent to 10% of our state budget.

In an age when the Peter Thiels of the world are smiling and saying evil does good because it is competent, we are entering a time when we will need to be aggressively "pro-human." Or at the very least, Pro-Good. And we have to build power, unapologetically.

MN voters: amending the state constitution requires a majority of voters to vote yes - abstaining from the school funding question on your ballot this year is effectively a no-vote. Please take a sec to get informed before you submit your ballot! www.lwvmn.org/2026-constit...
A portion of the MN official ballot that reads

Constitutional Amendments
Failure to vote on a constitutional amendment will have the same effect as voting no on the amendment.
To vote for a proposed constitutional amendment, fill in the box next to the word "Yes" on that question. To vote against a proposed constitutional amendment, fill in the box next to the word "No" on that question.
Increasing funding to school districts
Shall the Minnesota Constitution be amended to increase the funding going to all school districts from the permanent school fund, which is a fund that supports school districts without raising individual income or property taxes, effective July 1, 2027?

(This is a photo of my ballot where I have selected yes)

It is the duty of the extremely online to send this to your friends, relatives, or colleagues who own portable generators.
Three geese flying with carbon monoxide alarms on their backs. The geese are flying through an intense blizzard over the US. The geese are wearing wool hats with pom poms on top. They are not afraid. The text reads: Carbon monoxide safety geese brigade. Ever loud! Every lifesaving! Ever bird! Make sure your carbon monoxide alarms are working. Keep your portable generator outdoors and 20 feet away from your home!
