30.10.2025 20:06 — 👍 3 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0St. Paul Como Park defeated Simley in the Class 2A State semi-final 4-3 in double overtime. Class 2A’s Mr. Soccer, Elvis Hernandez, scored 2 goals for Simley in the final minutes of regulation to tie the game. Blessed Htoo’s second goal of the game was the game-winner for St. Paul Como Park. The Cougars will play #1 seed Blake in the 2A Championship game on Friday, at 2:45 p.m.
Some *elite* names in this MN state high school soccer semifinal (also, hell yeah Como Park!)

It was the thing I didn’t know I needed.
This tracks. We got Rumi and a Saja Boy in our house.

So either way, nope, fuck this guy.
Sophisticated art/jewelry heists — so long as no one is hurt/killed — should have a 48hr rule applied:
If you pull it off, don’t hurt/kill anyone, & don’t get caught for 48hrs, you are completely immune from prosecution.
The stuff you stole was probably stolen anyway. Congrats on being a badass.
Believe it or not there was a point in my life where I watched every Vikings game religiously (my mom was a HUGE fan). Then just the big games. Then just against the Packers. Then eventually none of them.
It was liberating to get Sundays back.
Just saying. It’s a choice yous all are making.
Wait, what does this mean for the value of that weird coin MNUFC gave out a few years ago?

Love you Midway.
I don’t know if you can draw any broader societal conclusions from this, but my extremely “I stay out of politics” military wife sister vented for an hour this morning about how appalling the actions of ICE are. 
I think this administration is grossly underestimating the impact this is having.
Bill McGuire quote about the new office building near Allianz Field being the “first office building constructed fresh from the ground up in St Paul since 1999.” Wood.
I’m glad McGuire keeps publicly criticizing the permitting process. Lest people think he’s just a rich guy whining about not getting his way, he’s actually pretty spot on about it all (as you know, of course).
Also, this…is brutal.
If you pronounce the food “potica” correctly I can likely narrow down which county you’re from to within 3 and which town you’re from to within maybe 4 or 5.

Midway Target finally decided I don’t need top level security clearance to buy deodorant, eh? 
Now let me buy toothpaste without having to page an employee and we’re all set.
5:00 • l 5G O Follow < Posts hwajeongkimstp hwajeongkimstp 2 hours ago ..• Saint Paul Councilmember ... Ward 5, Hwa Jeong Kim 8m • O This morning HSI raided a construction site in the North End and took every single worker. I am in direct communication with neighbors, Representative Hollins, the Chief of Police, and COPAL who is a leader in the Immigrant Defense Network. I know that SPPD and Ram Co Sheriffs were NOT present. Neighbors demanded the agents to identify themselves and they did not, leaving neighbors feeling confused who was present or if it was SPPD. I want to be very clear, Saint Paul Police officers will always identify themselves when asked. This is our policy. They will also be easily identified.
That’s not good

Midway #SaintPaul friends, be on the lookout for asshats dropping fucking laminated Nazi flyers in the neighborhood.
Happened a few weeks ago on Charles and early this morning on Beacon south of University…2 blocks from us.
But also we’re terrified of the subway

It was a hit. A BIG hit. And a beautiful day.

Needed that.

For real.
100%.
Including the hyphen really gets me too. Important to be grammatically correct when planning to leave handwritten evidence behind at a crime scene!
Anti hyphen Ice 
A totally real and not at all made up thing to have found written on some ammo left behind at the scene of a murder of multiple immigrants.
