An absolute legend.

Edit: everyone say hi to Heather too

Anyone know of any good events going on for Halloween??

When I was a kid my mom would drag me with her on craft store shopping trips. One of the few places that was slightly entertaining to my ten year old self was a store tucked away in an odd location on the second or third story of the mall. It was maybe connected closely to the smaller of the two parking ramps and sold knick-knacks with hand painted animals and other stuff on cheap plastic containers. My Unicorn obsessed sister got a 3-tiered swivel jewelry box thing with a Unicorn on it.

Edit 915PM 10 26 26: I think you guys that said Elephants Trunk might be right. I emailed the Blue Earth County Historical Society so I can confirm and get this ear-worm memory out of my head I think the name of the store had an animal in it, maybe something Elephant something...

I see that both places have mostly good reviews on Google but does anyone here have firsthand experience? They are both fairly expensive places to live but I'm just wondering if they are actually a good place to live. Feel free to suggest any other places that are maybe better.

Are there groups of bicyclists who get together regularly? I’ve seen a page for Mankato Mountain Bikers, but I’m looking for something more beginner friendly. I’d love to get together with other beginners and go for rides and build community!

In town for a wedding, never been here before. Is there any good place to do karaoke tonight?

This is crazy. Jake says he'll hold billionaire predators accountable and then Trump immediately dumps money into stopping him from getting elected.

He is running to replace Rich Draheim to represent areas around Mankato and he is a MAGA Republican, even though he tells his followers he is a libertarian that opposes taxation and wants to limit government:

• He didn't seem too concerned with the government infringing on rights, abducting citizens and legal residents from southern Minnesota homes. He thinks they were all violent criminals.
  • He also wasn't concerned with the government taking the lives of Re

nee

• Good and Alex Pretti.
• He doesn't understand the Constitution, particularly important amendments like the 4th Amendment.
• In fact he said that "...he couldn't quite accept the November 2020 elections as legitimate."
• Jeremy doesn't seem concerned about the billions of dollars we go into debt each month in spending on the military.
• Jeremy is fine with spending hundreds of billions of dollars on HSI and ICE.
• He doesn't seem too concerned about the hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars spent on luxury private jets for Kristi Noem.
• Unrelated: Previously he also wanted southern Minnesota to join Noem's South Dakota.
• Truth: Tariffs haven't made trade more "fair", they've just enacted a huge tax on all of us.
• Fun fact: transitioning is a great example of personal choice and freedom, a key tenet of libertarianism.

The woman drove off and the police didn’t arrest her when she came back to the scene. I got it all on video.
I’m so frustrated. He went to the hospital by ambulance and I called the Sargent on duty (who knows my family and me very well) and he said he will be looking into it.
The woman is my son’s ex wife’s grandmother. She hit him on purpose. Then stole his kids (ages 1 & 3). They were in the car when she hit my son. And so was his ex wife. Im at an absolute loss right now. Why didn’t she go to jail?!

Uugggghhh!!!

Reposting because my previous post disappeared!

I plan to go to this and wanted to spread the word.

There's a free volunteer event at Minneopa State Park for removing invasive buckthorn from the site. This work helps improve biodiversity and helps native species thrive. It's this Saturday, October 24 from 9am-11:30am. Tools, training, and snacks are included!

If you are interested in attending, here's the registration link: https://www.givepulse.com/event/907308

Hello!
My buddy and I are looking to fill out our commander pod. We usually play about once a week in person, and sporadically on discord.

If you’re reading this far, I’m assuming you’ll know what the following means!

We play bracket 4, sometimes fringe cEDH. Our really only “rule” is to remember that it’s just a game and not be salty. Blow our stuff up, counter us, do your worst. We like competitive game play.

If you’re interested, DM me your favorite commander!

Hey everyone! Does anyone know of a local market, orchard, or co-op currently selling fresh, raw chestnuts?

I know they are tough to grow around Minnesota due to the winters, but I'm looking to buy some for roasting at home and would love to support a local or regional grower if possible.
Let me know if you’ve spotted any in stock lately! Thanks!

Must be around that season. I live up near the Grove and somebody/people egged just my apartment last night

New to Mankato does anyone know of any Urbex spots?

Hello!! I'm going to be in the area in the next couple of weeks to visit a friend who is also out of town (mankato is a half way point between us) and I want to get my hair cut/styled by an LGBTQ friendly salon.. are there any recommendations? Also what about good places to go eat? TYIA :D

We want to learn about your experience with housing and nonprofits! If you’re a student in need or just care about this kind of thing please consider answering a few questions, thank you!
