40 states have a higher improper payment rate than Minnesota.

WY is 5 times higher
SC 4 times
KY is 3.5 times
TX is 3 times.

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH FRAUD. IT HAS TO DO WITH REPUBLICANS (including the mngop) HATING MINNESOTA FOR BEING BLUE! minnesotareformer.com/2026/03/04/u...

It’s nice to see sluts receiving the recognition they deserve, especially in Norway.

Please visit us in the middle of the country too. There are people here who need your wisdom, they still don't believe that Dracula can get wet.

Huh, my car radio has an HD option! First time I’ve found it, wish I’d known earlier today!

I co-starred, and comedy-sexy-danced with, Lizzo in the unreleased* video for her song β€œEn Love” from her album β€œBig GRRRL Small World”.

* it was unreleased because she was signed to a major label immediately after its filming and, as far as I know, never finished.

I’m really confused β€” I’ve tuned in a number of times today and haven’t heard any new wave. Right now it’s Bruno Mars?

War is hell, but there is a special eternal hell reserved for people who would double tap a girls’ school, and it is our job to have scrupulously fair trials and then usher the people responsible for it there

Reposting with proper credit, Billy Bragg’s Triple H entrance theme demo, via Twitter. By @bossmoz I’d tag him, but Bsky either doesn’t want to or something else is up.

Seeing a lot of folks talking about how this is affecting Crockett vs Talarico, but a reminder that Ken Paxton is literally in a fight for his political life against John Cornyn (also fighting for his political life), so as much as we might think this is about our primary, it very well may not be.

If anyone is friends with any Georgian air traffic controllers, buy them a nice bottle of wine. As guardians of pretty much the only narrow gap still available between Europe and Asia that avoids both Iran, the Gulf, Ukraine and Russia, they are under some substantial pressure.

I don’t work during the week, thanks.

If you put β€œMinneapolis” in your bio, people are going to think you’re from Minneapolis. This is literally the issue that we’re talking about, people claiming to others that they live somewhere they don’t.

Yeesh, β€œdude”.

You know 430,000 people? In a city where new people move into every day?

I mean, I may be a Saint Paul Guyℒ️, but we don’t even make those claims.

I’d much rather be certain the people claiming to be residents of the city or neighborhood they are speaking about actually are. Actual residents’ concerns should trump those of Chad from Lakeville.

Perhaps there can be a staffer to check IDs and make sure potential speakers are actually residents? Then they can just say β€œI live in Ward 9” or β€œI’m from the Powderhorn area.”

If they’re smart, they’ll put up @minnesotafrost.com and @mnrollerderby.bsky.social players instead.

Granted, they promised Roy Wilkins renovations/updates in 2008 when the RNC was in town and MNRD was booted out for the summer/fall.
