The answer is, as always, we let power leach from the government to hyper wealthy individuals.

Mahnomen, kind of an ancestral home of my family when we landed, is named after the Ojibwe word for wild rice.

I thought I remember reading somewhere that they couldn’t actually modify it because it could cause the whole thing to collapse.

Which…. Sure. I say go for it.

That $40B would have funded USAID for a whole ass year and saved probably (tens of?) thousands of lives this year alone.

I’m coming down on this side as well.

1.5 miles in 14 minutes is a likely barrier for a lot of people.

During soccer in high school I was only doing sub 7-minute miles. The fastest I’d ever run one mile was just under six.

I skipped soccer this year, so at 40, 1.5 in 14 would be a stretch.

jamelle @jamellebouie.net · 20h

in fairness a 9 minute (and some change) mile isn't nothing

Yeah. Myself and a few other witnesses stuck around to talk to the authorities. Thankfully my instinct to snap photos right away allowed me to give the plate number to 911 right away. Hoping it helped.

This is in NE Minneapolis.

Just witnessed someone trying to fireb*mb Fletcher’s Ice Cream in NE. Saw a dude acting weird next to a parked car in front of the place. I walked by, heard a smash through my earbuds, smelled gasoline/kerosine. Turned around, snapped some photos instinctively. Thankfully they suck at molot*vs.

This photo shows significant damage to the roof too. And it’s not like this company is without experience. They’re pros.

There is a lot more of this structure coming down. I’m aghast at this.

Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/
