@RobertNelson23 You’re wrong on 1 or 2. I’m not sure why some people in these replies think gay people don’t pay income, sales, or property taxes. But even if you were right, we have one of the lowest unemployment rates in the U.S and we need more workers. Our economy > your identity politics.

Crime is always huge news when it goes up, then basically goes unmentioned when it goes down. On a related note, did you know car thefts are down 42%, carjacking is down 18%, and shots fired are down 14% in Minneapolis this year?

Cool story about a few St. Paul schools installing geothermal systems: “Both should pay for themselves in a decade. Johnson High’s savings will be $7 million over 30 years.”

St. Paul, Minnesota’s public schools are tapping geothermal to cut emissions and building costs |...

New technology and federal incentives have helped convince the district that geothermal is among its best options for achieving its climate goals.

Still pretty blown away that I saw this in my backyard in The Wedge, 1 mile from downtown Minneapolis.

Living in the Wedge and working at Sabathani leaves me feeling very excited about a hard decision I have to make when I wake up every morning: bike on the Greenway or down the beautiful new Bryant bikeway to get to work?

Really excited about this partnership. It’s been a blast to work with the whole MinnPost team on this one. You deserve to know who is spending money to try to win your vote and why. If you live in Minneapolis and want to know more about who that is, check out the guide below.

This is really, to me, mostly a restoration of the Minnesota I grew up in. Well-funded schools, well-resourced local government, things that mostly worked & looked good. Federal cuts of the 80s & 90s, Pawlenty cuts of the 00s, austerity of the Great Recession laid waste to that.

I’ve never been a huge stats guy- so correct me if I am wrong, but if we get over 21.1” from this storm, it would place us at number 2 for storms since 1883. The granddaddy storm is 28.4” from the Halloween Blizzard in 1991 (of course). Info from DNR website. Either way, it looks

Downtown Minneapolis looks like Wrigleyville right now. I fear whatever havoc the Cubs fans may unleash. They have the numbers to overthrow us all, keep your heads on a swivel.

Horrible idea. The city races will get no attention, when in reality they need MORE attention. Imagine trying to run a citywide campaign during the last two presidential elections??

Minneapolis moving to even year elections for mayor, city council, and park board? It's still a live issue that could end up on your ballot in 2024. A Charter Commission work group just voted 7-0 recommending that the full commission hold a public hearing on the matter.

There are tons of great everyday uses for this one, and Lake Street regularly has the most packed buses I take, but what I really like is to plan out fantasy days with these things. I will be pulling off the Bde Maka Ska swim/Lake Street meal(s)/Saints game combo at some point.

@ArmandDoma @DKThomp They never really had a good ROI and the people with big budgets finally started to figure that out. Lots of snake oil in that industry. Very unfortunate the number of media companies that got addicted to them.

When the process functions flawlessly, .01% of the voters in the city sit in a room & cosplay Model U.N. until the group with the least to do on a beautiful weekend afternoon outlasts the other one. The process has also never once functioned flawlessly. Why does this still exist?

At the risk of putting too fine of a point on this, I think the Minnesota I grew up in was basically the best place at the best time to be a kid. And I'm really hopeful and happy that another generation might get that same shot.

Also, 6 years ago or so I started betting against the Vikings in big games. Couldn’t recommend it more. Really soothes the soul in these moments and betting that the Vikings aren’t going to win big games is a lucrative business.

Minneapolis needs an updated flag. So let's design a new one together. Submit your design by January 15, 2024. Or Melody's weird cat flag is going to win.

100% right. And this isn’t the kind of thing that you should throw your spokesperson to the wolves on. If you’re actually planning to cut the funding for a popular community event, you should have the guts to come out and say why yourself.

I want to know the REAL reason the city cut Open Streets funding because this response is so absurd as to damn near imply a more interesting and politically incendiary answer exists.
