Hi all, there are a lot of things to be said about the chaos, kidnapping and murder, that is happening in the state I live in right now. I want to highlight some things I have personally seen in the last month or so out on the streets in Minneapolis.

My #SuperbOwl 🪶 story
In Winter, we put out seed and mixed suet for the birds and critters. A few years ago, one night I watched a flying squirrel run a couple feet down to a bag of suet, pluck out a seed, run back up to eat it. He was barely illuminated by the moon.

In a state that is considering $50 PER YEAR bike registration and various forms of licensing - I beg for enforcement. We don't need new laws.
Last summer, a local cop decided to spend a day doing speed enforcement. He had to stop writing tickets because he ran out of physical tickets.

The thing about pedestrian safety post 2020 is that its one of the few areas that's massively worse than the norms that existed pre-covid, its bourne out clearly in the numbers, and the only way to solve it is traffic enforcement, sorry
