Hennepin County Property Tax statement arrived for 2026. Up a whopping 10%. Worse than that… The School District portion is only going up 3.6%, while City of Minneapolis is up 13.6%!

Meanwhile our teachers in public schools in Minneapolis have to go on strike every 3 years.

I mean if you're still reading The New York Times at this point you're reading the paper that quietly shielded the largest pedophile conspiracy of our time.

Your only possible response, when confronted with someone saying this, is to wait for them to finish, firmly state β€œWhat the actual fuck is wrong with you?” and leave the interview immediately.

Unrelated but related, we were at an ice cream shop in Grand Marais last summer during peak tourist hours and there was a guy just...sawing stuff? Literally holding a miter saw and sawing wood in half next to the line for ice cream. I was like, "Can you do that...any other time?"

I’ve seen a few folks go for the β€œif you simply must watch that new Harry Potter show just pirate it” and sorry. No. Just no. Just don’t watch it. At all. Ever. Break free of it. It’s time. You’ll be ok. I promise. I know it mattered to you as a kid. Find new things, it’s healthier. Just move on.

Yeah, came here to say I increased my exposure, which I would do on any camera - manual, phone, or otherwise. But we could see it with the naked eye in Mpls.

Northern lights lovers didn’t have to go far to see them ripple across the sky Tuesday evening. A show that included vivid red auroras visible to the eye, not just the camera.

We want to see your aurora photos. Message them to us or email them to tell@mpr.org.

Scrapped plans to build in Florida parks came from DeSantis’ office, suit says Documents filed in a lawsuit allege that plans to build hotels and golf courses in nineΒ FloridaΒ state parks, later dropped after a public backlash, β€œcame directly from the governor’s office.”…

Everyone’s focused on the NYTimes bombshell this morning β€” which isn’t really a bombshell, we all know #TrumpIsAPedophile β€” but here’s a gift link to a story about DeSantis’s ongoing lying and corruption amid his preference for golf courses vs nature in Florida: www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/11/12/s...

Was just thinking about this. We offer a place to donate cold weather gear at a bunch of our public libraries that can then be immediately taken from by people who need something... And gloves gloves gloves is a huge huge need. Even those cheap ones are better than nothing. Please donate!!!

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded β€œany future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.”

The result was β€œinstitutionalized hunger.”

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

So many Americans died from COVID, it boosted Social Security to the tune of $205 billion | Fortune The increase is β€œdriven primarily by the premature death of people who would have received retirement benefits.”

Think about who benefits from you and everyone else being convinced that COVID is "over".

People are out here blaming RCV for Jacob's win. And I cannot stress this enough: RCV had literally nothing to do with it. Everything about this outcome was entirely predictable. Jacob had huge structural advantages: compliant local media, off-cycle election, PAC $, patronage networks.
