After 6 long minutes of racist foolishness, residents and a city council member spoke up against the insanity witnessed during the public forum.

Lang and X have been obsessing over a local USPS office that shares a building with an Islamic Community Center. Since last Friday they won’t leave our community alone - harassing people at prayer and postal workers alike, they came to waste their breath at the city council meeting last night.

There may be some whacko outliers, as in any case, but it’s going to become more and more clear as time goes on that Plymouth residents will not tolerate racism. We will make sure of it. We love ALL of our neighbors.

In the past, Menards rebates came in the mail in a post card format and it was very clear what it was. Easy to spot and store away.

I just got a rebate in the mail that was printed inside a giant Masterforce advertisement. I thought it was junk mail and almost threw it away, but for some reason decided to open the mailer. The rebate card was literally printed inline with the advertisement on the inner page.

If you're expecting a rebate, don't throw away stuff from Menards until you open it.

Hello again, gang!

I’m Doc, an artist based in St. Paul who runs Rough Sketch out of Studio Rough Haus, a queer artist venue located in South Saint Paul.

Rough Sketch is basically my excuse to try to get other twin-cities artists and creative folks together to hang out for a couple hours every month and work on stuff together and just create a space to hang out and vibe and maybe meet some friends!

So swing by, bring a pencil and some paper, maybe a friend, and come see what we’re working on!

SRH has been really good to us in the past letting us host once a month minus a couple busy months for their shows here and there. But they’ve got snacks and drinks for sale and we’ve got an Instagram and a discord now! I just need to be better about asking folks permission to take photos of their work because I get caught up in yappin a lot lol.

Cheers!

Who are you listening to? I like to have it on in the mornings in the background or in the car driving home from work, but since Dave left KDWB I find Fallon super annoying. Since Lori and Julia left Mytalk in the late afternoons, Brittney and Kendall I find annoying. So frustrated!

I would like to get breast reduction and lift, but it has been incredibly hard to find a doctor that has recommendations specifically from people with a darker skin tone.

My sister went to a random plastic surgeon recommended by insurance and ended up with extensive scarring and keloids. Darker skin tones tend to have darker scars and are more prone to keloids.

I really don't want to have the same experience and would like to work with a surgeon that understands how minimize scarring on someone of my complexion.

Any recommendations?

it’s a really bizarre feeling to be going to speed limit and passing every car on the highway

There are rescues from all over the state that pull from MACC, so if you live anywhere in Minnesota, you can help if you want to! If you want to help contact one of the MACC approved rescues (here's a list of all the approved rescues: https://www.minneapolismn.gov/resident-services/animals-pets/animal-rescue/animal-rescue-groups/) and tell them you want to foster one of the cats who's on the euthanasia list at MACC. Rescues I would recommend because they frequently take Minneapolis Animal Control cats are: Pet Haven, Ruff Start, Twin Cities Pet Rescue, Kitty Revolution, and The Rescue Crew.

In case you were wondering about that smoke and smell downtown a few days ago. It was the worst.

Which one did you like better? Would you say it’s possible to volunteer at both at the same time?

Let’s try this again. I’m looking for a t-shirt of Nicholas Cage, in any form, from a store in the twin cities before Friday. Have you seen one recently? Gently whisper the location in the comments.

Join fans of the Bulwark on Tuesday, November 3rd, at Dual Citizen Brewery in St. Paul from 7:00 to 10:00 PM to watch election returns come in from across the country. Will it be a Blue Tsunami? Or will Tim Miller’s prediction of 52 seats barely give them a Fetterman-proof majority? Let's find out together!

All attendees present at 8:00 PM will be eligible for a drawing for some of the sweet new Bulwark swag.

There will be beer and other drinks available, and you can get food delivered from nearby if no food truck is there that night.

Here's the Meetup link to the event, but don't feel like you have to join, you can just show up: https://www.meetup.com/the-bulwark-meetup-group/events/316766469/

As always, feel free to reach out with any questions and invite your friends to join the group or just bring them along.

We're replacing our flooring at home and will end up with about 350-400 square feet of Pergo laminate that has some wear but is still in decent condition. I'd hate to throw it all out, is there a place that would accept it so it can be reused?

Hi! I am looking for a restaurant or somewhere the bae and I can go Saturday. He LOVESSSS Halloween and hates when it’s like… kid/family friendly Halloween. Proper horror fan.

I don’t imagine anywhere is decorated to that level, but curious if there’s anywhere that could be good. Even just a stroll through a part of town.

We can go anywhere TC metro. I looked up tavern 400 but I think it’s not quite enough.

Thank you so much!

Hello yall,

I’m recently getting out of my comfort zone by going to bars/clubs alone to practice talking with people in social settings. What are some great spots for a slightly socially awkward person such as myself to practice for the one night I’ll be in the twin cities.

I got this corny-ass “Amy doesn’t support progressive values” mailer, complete with Russian constructivist communist fists and CCCP red.

The desperation from conservatives is palpable. Their only hope is to try to splinter the left with stuff like this. Don’t take the bait, and please vote Democrat down the ballot.

anyone find a set of keys near boyd park in st. paul? has a red lego piece on it.

Over the weekend I spent the entire day in the ER. Two women with the initials M and N were there for part of my stay- M had been in a car accident and her friend N had been visiting in town and accompanied her.

I never told you why I was there (and you respectfully never asked). I was there because they had found a mass in my neck. You both asked me about my wife and if she was coming to stay with me and I told you this place is unpleasant and I didn’t want her to drag her into the ER and find a sitter for our children. But the truth is, I didn’t want to be alone, but I also wasn’t ready to have people I love brought into the situation yet. You guys were perfect- super friendly, pretty funny, and def my kind of people. I’m so grateful you were there (but at the same time I hate you were in a car accident).

To M - I hope they got your soft cast and are on the mend!

To N - it sounds like you were in town to deal with the loss of a family member. Wishing you peace in your journey.

Thank you both so much - you were just being yourselves but it was exactly what I needed.

❤️

My internet cut out this morning. Trying to figure out if it’s my house or something broader.

Edit: I called USI and there’s an outage in the Linden Hills area.

I’m wondering if you have a favorite box wine. I like Cabarnet or red Zinfandel. For whites I like Chardonnay, Pinto Grigio and Sauvignon Blanc. I prefer dryer over sweet. I’m just looking for a decent wine for less that what bottles cost.
Thank you.

Any British / English people in the twin cities that hangout / go to a regular spot to connect in the Twin cities? I’m an American married to a British man, we recently moved here from another state, and he’s really missing the English banter 😅
