I finished this a couple months ago. Pretty good read. Give it a try during one of those lovely winter storms we are about to start getting.

Yuen: Vile texts received by Black Minnesotans after the election reveal a bolder brand of racism
“It is a signal to the all the Realms that Earth is ready for a higher form of war!”
Same Klukkers and SS, new digital tools.

An interesting trip, but probably shouldn’t be this damn difficult to do.

Not a fish story: the DNR’s Minnesota State Fair cabin turns 90
We have not been to the fair since Covid, but I do love this building and the fish pond. If you ever got to the fair, you need to check it out. It *is* very busy most of the time though.

Tolkkinen: Minnesota has become a state with two flags
No…
We have one flag. There’s an old flag that hasn’t been replaced or is being held on to by racists and curmudgeons.
That’s it.
I see a lot of businesses that went hard into this, buying pristine new versions of the old flag and trying to make some kind of statement by it.
Only statement they made is that they don’t want my money. And that maybe they hate Native Americans and have a kink for slavery.
Just get used to this one. It is a better look all around.

Frankly, given the conservative voice MPR has had since it changed owners, they’d have run him off anyway, but it was definitely a loss at the time.
