True! Maybe it was just a thing generally without any sarcasm involved.

No one cares about saying they are On or Off the Mall anymore.

"Longhorn off the Mall" sounds goofy (no upper deck pun intended) and I bet it was meant as a spoof on various stores and businesses ID'ing themselves as "on the Mall"

I checked. He says "you all"

just the stare

without looking it up I need you to guess how much this chair costs

Dammit!

The problem was translating the time out request from American English to British English.

Dammit, if this Vikings game is all down to *the wire*

Does it hit the wire? You be the judge.

Going to be funny if in 2025 a Canadian team wins the the USA American MLB baseball title

Anyway, yes, the story did appear on the front page of the Sunday newspaper. bsky.app/profile/chri...

How the Minnesota Star Tribune used AI to bolster its shoe-leather reporting to background a mass shooter - Poynter A team of journalists relentlessly tracked the shooter’s digital and paper trail. But AI provided deeper insight into her thoughts before the shooting.

That editor's note in the skeet above appears to be the first Tom Scheck byline since he joined The Minnesota Star Tribune in August after years at APM and MPR. Although he wrote something similar for Poynter: www.poynter.org/reporting-ed...

The Minnesota Vikings are playing 12 miles from where Minnesota native son Eddie Cochran played his 12th-to-last concert (as it happens, the concert was less than a month after the Vikings got their franchise in 1960). #rockfacts

what is it??

Without breaking any NDAs, I can say with direct knowledge Gopher is still in use by a major corporation in 2025.

People won’t believe me if I went into the details (if I even could without getting sued into the ground).

So I guess today is the *second* time a Vikings game and the Twin Cities Marathon started at about the same time.
