The city auditor raised concerns with MPD’s compliance with the city auditor’s office way before the election.
It is a complete malpractice to not name who is in charge of MPD. It’s depressing to see publications not hold Mayor Frey accountable.

The Minneapolis Police Department is ordering its officers to cooperate with the city auditor’s office amid a probe into how it handled two high-profile cases after a city official raised accusations of stonewalling.
Minneapolis auditor says lack of police cooperation in dual probes is creating costly delays
The police department’s second-in-command has issued a memo saying “Failure to comply shall result in discipline.”

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

I straight up told my boyfriend that this is my worst fear (he doesnt gamble in any way and has no debt).
I could love a partner through anything. Sickness. Drug addiction.
But GAMBLING? I’ll leave you immediately. I’ll leave you over the slot machines at the casino. Gambling is the LINE for me.

Kept waiting for at least one of these stories to end with, "And then I left him," but (of course), nope. The most bonkers through-line here is that none of these couples have kids (yet) and it sounds like every women had glaring red flags *before* getting married. 🫠

There is a famous mantra from the movie Field of Dreams: "If you build it, they will come." This applies very well to the punishment bureaucracy. It is not the solution to what ails the human spirit, our collective society, or the desperate planet. Never let anyone scare you into forgetting that.
