I reply: "i actually had a career in knifemaking before this. the reason why you can't avoid tariffs in knifemaking is because everyone relies on Gobelin machinery. are you aware of this?"

Alex replies: "Gobelin machinery? What exactly are you referring to?"

I reply: "you Gobelin DEEZ NUTS!"

a few days late but: lyn-lake isn't distinct from uptown in any meaningful way and the only reason to pretend otherwise is to preserve the notion that Minneapolis is big enough to have tons of genuinely unique neighborhoods instead of just a handful. it's fine! we're a small city! accept it!

Great thread! To add one straightforward/quick-to-implement thing I think is missing: replace some of the parking spots at major parks with more bike racks. Pretty much every time I go to the beach, the racks are completely full and people are just locking up on signs and stuff.
