  1. Wherever you go in Minneapolis proper, be prepared for a sneaky 20% surcharge at most downtown bars and restaurants for "employee wellness" or some shit. Some places make it clear that this is in lieu of tips, but others expect you to tip on top. Downtown/North Loop is expensive. $8 beers are the norm.
  2. Fulton does sell a lot of beer, but the taproom is small- pretty much all production is offsite. I did just pop on to their website and see that they've added a small food menu. Word to the wise, they tend to get very busy before and after games, though outside of opening day, the Astros series is likely to be sparsely attended.
  3. Ha. Meant crapshoot, but somehow crap chute works too. Maybe better.
  4. Fulton is right there too. Both might have food trucks, but no kitchens. Otherwise, if you arrive hungry, Freehouse is close and is a cool spot with a great beer selection- avoid the house brews though. I know you're more about booze than food, but you're staying in a primo location for good grub. Bar La Grassa, Mara, and Spoon and Stable are each less than a 10 minute walk from Modist. Weather is an absolute crap chute that time of year. Could be beautiful or miserable.
  5. HaHaHa. These guys aren't going to stop stepping on their own Ds.
  6. The faces in the gallery are great. That alone is worth at least 6 viewings.
  7. So I've tried a couple quordles now and I'm not sure what to think about it yet- other than it might take a different strategy.

  9. She just referred to the "war against Russia in Ukraine" on Tucker's show.
  10. By all accounts we're going to be snowed in through the weekend, so I whipped up some black bean and Linguica (Portuguese sausage) soup- topped off here with a little bit of goat cheese.
  11. That is entirely possible in a state like mine that allows people who aren't registered as GOP to vote in the primary. But how common is that? Don't most state require that you're registered in the party whose primary you're voting for?

  13. Yep. Her grand manifesto in a fucking tweet thread. Ted Kaczynski was nuts too, but at least he took the trouble of writing 35,000 words of detail.
  14. It's a pretty common theme, but a pretty creepy image. And a batshit crazy tweet.
  15. It's an illustration of the breath of life. And it's weird.
  16. Forget it, she's rolling. Seriously though, in her fantasy scenario, it's more about which party controls the state.
  17. I don't think she's a psychopath, at least not clinically. I think she's the poster child for Hanlon's razor.
  18. She's so fucking simple. Lost in all the rhetoric is the fact that she's really only saying she wants to go back (way back) to a bare bones federal government. It's not a "divorce" at all, but more of an open marriage (admittedly a concept she knows a lot more about than me). Red and blue states will still share a house to shelter and protect them, they'll just get rid of the joint bank accounts and vow not to meddle in each other's personal affairs. There's actually a way to articulate that sentiment that doesn't set the internet on fire, but when the real goal is attention, what's the point in that?
  19. Jeepers. Looks like he's been living the Bath Salts Life.
  20. I suggested to my family that I wanted to put a yardstick on the deck in advance of snowmageddon. I got the rare triple eye roll.
  21. I'm totally new to this wordle thing, but it's a lot of fun! Wordle 612 4/6 ⬜🟨⬜⬜⬜ ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟩⬜🟨⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Probably should have used the correct letter in my second attempt, but I got there. Here are my words. Tips and suggestions appreciated.
  22. Good to know. I was about to get aggressive. I'm just glad we've had a couple of weeks of mild temps. Driveway is completely clear. Roof is mostly clear. Still a lot of snow on the ground but whatever. Did manage to get a lot of dog shit cleaned up in the thaw.
