Hitler was bad.

An essay that, you know, I didn’t think I’d need to write.

A charred, desiccated chicken drum stick lies on a much-used baking stone. Half of it is coal black and the whole thing is very unappetizing

Oh hey, look what I found in the back of my oven. Leftovers!

why wouldn’t you? I have fun changing my duvet covers and sheets with the seasons

I was about to tell everyone that the bike lane along W. River Parkway between 44th St. and Lake Street is mostly clear pavement and good for running (or biking, walking, etc.)! Then I looked at the weather forecast

Oh man, Soul Coughing has not aged well for me. I think that album might be their punishment.

Good for you for saying something. Assholes never stop acting like assholes on their own.

hey Minneapolitans: Anybody been out on W. River Parkway? pondering a run

I think @weratedogs.com should see this miracle of athleticism

Photos from St. Paul today captured by MPR photojournalist Kerem Yücel. He filed them even after being hospitalized after being injured by a less lethal munition.

See, I am not a big fan of pecan pie—it's too sugary for me—but I would never say it's undebatably bad.

this is it, this is the wrongest thing I’ve ever read on the internet.

75% of Lunds shoppers today are elderly gents who have been sent out with a list and have no idea what to do. Gentle slow-moving bedlam has ensued

I had my doubts for a second there

a group of five turkeys launching a practice sortie as the ranks grow off camera

Attention Twin Citizens: this morning I ran across the gathering of a veritable Turkey Army under the Ford Bridge. Cars and cyclists were met with derision and belligerence. I fear they have heard about our Thanksgiving plans and they are preparing an all out Turkey Trot

it's really pretty here. Yes, even in November

well, it was also the name of my elementary school. But I’m not really crying about it

or maybe unripe elderberries?

Looks kinda like the berries from False Solomon's Seal. Maybe from a squirrel cache?

I know someone who takes Zepbound and she doesn't vomit (AFAIK) but she just "forgets to eat" all day. It sounds like medically induced anorexia and I worry about her. But she is working with a doctor and says she feels good, so...

Delouse and Guitar

Adobe offered to summarize a Hunter S. Thompson piece in 5 bullet points for me yesterday. I suspect he would have had some choice words about that

I enjoy the ones by writers and other slobs like myself who took up running in middle age. But they always feel the need to rehash the Pheidippides story and I am over it

I read a lot of books about running, and can I just say: Let's stop writing about Pheidippides. Really. He's been dead for thousands of years. Just let that poor man lie already.

Oh no, I'd be sad to see Nokomis Hardware go. I was just in there last week and everyone was so nice and helpful.
