Video of federal agents getting run out of Lyn Lake this afternoon. Agents drop a gas can at the end and someone kicks it back at them.

Number 16 as MSA (including St. Paul and suburbs) so bit bigger but I would of thought top 10 MSAs.

Columbus OH is a decent counter-example. It’s kinda the only growing Ohio city.

You sweet summer child.

Wait till you find the memestock communities made of people banned from wallstreetbets.

The people claiming there canceled shares of Sears or Bed Bath and Beyond will make them trillionaires are just the start.

A roll is done while drinking wine and any 6 is a success. If a mom skill applies roll both dice. A player can reroll as long as they are drinking continuously from the bottle.

The game ends if the players have thwarted their enemy’s evil plan or all players have drunk their bottle of wine. /fin
