…Stay Because Your Car Won’t Start

It’s not casserole, it’s hot dish. Shit posts and memes that remind me of this state. Some serious posts about its perks, its history and its serious flaws. Wisconsiners welcome but you’re on ice too thin for fishing. (Mod is an adult, white, Jewish, TME, trans, queer & disabled. Any pronouns.)

Smoke from the Boundary Waters wildfires has been blowing in and it is so so so bad here. AQI higher than I've ever seen it to the point where I feel like something must be malfunctioning but there's multiple local stations reporting numbers above 500. It is visibly smoky and orange outside and even with windows shut and AC and air purifiers cranked it still smells like a campfire inside. Wildfire smoke absolutely wrecks my health and this is the worst I've ever seen it so I'm anticipating the World's Worst Crash coming soon.

I had to edit this photo slightly because my phone's camera kept wanting to color correct it to make it look normal, but this is the view in my neighborhood.

The smoke from the Boundary Waters Canoe Area wildfires in Northern Minnesota have cast our town in Northern Wisconsin into a haze. It smells like a campfire outside. The haze is getting thicker as the morning goes on.

Y’all send folks in Duluth some good thoughts and prayers for the wind direction to change. This is horrific to see!

The Ojibwe nailed it. Wawa is exactly the right name for a goose.

Speaking of Ojibwe! There’s a new point and click game to help teach the language! It’s called Reclaim! Azhe-giiwewining, and is currently on sale on Steam!

Children of former House Speaker Melissa Hortman and Mark Hortman share grief, remember parents one year after their killing

"They were these public figures. They were known by people in many ways, many different layers. But for us, that's mom and dad," Sophie Hort

There is still so much grief in the hearts, homes and communities of Minnesota. It’s been a year since the Hortmans’ murder and the attack on Hoffmann. In that year we expierenced the mass shooting at Annunciation’s school and the beginning of operation metro surge which included the killing of our neighbors Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

I’m proud of all we’ve done to care for one another in these dark time but Jesus Christ we deserve a break.

Only because I was born and raised and live in Saint Paul, but the rivalry ain’t real. It’s the Twin Cities baby! The rivalry is how we suss out who came to Minneapolis from the burbs, tells on themselves immediately when they participate in it.

St Paul Propaganda:

Quieter -- all the young hip rapscallions go to Minneapolis to fuck about. Minneapolis is for boundless energy. St Paul is for slowing down, admiring the architecture, and appreciating the history of the city.

Shameless plug for my friends at CynCity Tours, who do Haunted Summit Hill walking tours that tell ghost stories about the big mansions.

Also, downtown St Paul, when it's not under construction, soooo not stressful to drive in compared to Minneapolis. Rush hour in downtown Minneapolis is ass. Rush hour in St Paul? Never heard of her.

If you're a local and you took a driver's ed course; there's a reason they have you practice downtown driving in St Paul.

Architecture -- as mentioned above, St Paul values historic preservation moreso than Minneapolis. We got really cool and unique old buildings downtown, and we have so many historic homes surrounding downtown.

Architecture and history also tie in, but there are so many neat stories in St Paul. We have old timey caves that people used to grow mushrooms and also a gangster was probably murdered there but the only evidence ever found were bullet holes in the limestone fire place likeeeeeee. Talk about intrigue.

St Paul can also claim both ArtScraps and The Stashery for all us thrifty and crafty bitches. And Craft Thrift Store.
