I have so many books in my "to read" pile, it's a real relief to have these two that will never ever add to that pile.

You nailed it though. Unfortunately.

Boo. Does it seem like the Plantes are getting targeted a bit in this series?

Oh my, this is fantastic!

Oh please, let it be someone awful!!

I'm in for $200 if I get to write regular opinion pieces with a lot of swear words.

C. Health care shouldn't be treated like a business. Hospitals are a common good. Ambulance service is a common good. We all might need need these things, and it's to everyone's benefit to have them available to everyone, without horrible financial risk when you actually need them.

Hmm. OK how about:
Owamni for Native and upscale
Hola Arepa for arepas
Travail for unique and creative gastronomy
Baba's Hummus for great hummus bowls
Volstead House in Eagan is a hidden speakeasy with great drinks
Al's Breakfast for pancakes and a unique experience

Looking for anything specific? Or any particular location?

If you turn to page B5, you get a black and white photo that shows (kind of) how many people were there. It would have been SO EASY to get photos from the dozens of statewide protests, in this allegedly statewide newspaper

If you turn to B5, you get this black and white photo that shows *part* of the massive scope of the Minneapolis protest. @startribune.bsky.social this is terrible. You are not up to the task.

Terrible job in print edition though. Not front page; relegated to the "state and region" section. Zero mention of the 50,000+ in attendance. The picture that shows how massive the crowd was relegated to black and white on B4. @startribune this is journalistic malpractice.

I did same. Can't believe we have government accounts 100% dedicated to trolling. I mean, I can believe it, given ~everything~ but it's so so so dispiriting.
