Love it! This one is mine, also a New Deal Era project (through the Treasury Department) but no mural.

Cyndy Martin allegedly killed 19-year-old Carter Haithcock in a hit-and-run crash.
Evidence indicates that Martin hit Haithcock with her GMC Yukon and left him dead on the highway.
Regardless of the court case, it's maddening that DFL leadership hasn't removed her from the 8th district chair.

I love so many buildings on the U of MN-Minneapolis campus but not this giant shiny turd that we are expected to laud as genius. Biking past it was my least favorite part of going to classes. Frank Gehry left a series of imposing eyesores on our urban landscapes.

Trump pardoned a lot of people who DID go to prison, because our justice system didn't catch up with him in time to get a second round. The next AG after Trump shouldn't be too scared (deliberative, whatever you prefer) to aggressively go after Trump. Trump's balloon of support will deflate.

This is a fucking nightmare. Owatonna is a rural city with 26,000 people. (Albert Lea, 30 miles south, has 18,000 people, and Mayo closed its labor and delivery in 2019.)

You're for it until you're against it. It's the Iraq War all over again. Get better at recognizing bad actors and stop taking the easy path.
Speaking of which, there are two prominent sex predators in this picture. You still haven't cut ties to one of them.

This has unfortunately become highly relevant to the US now too.

LOL your post reminded me that I have an I.F. Stone book called "In a Time of Torment" but alas none of the five MacArthur references involve the magnificent boner.

Otherworldly! I took this photo about a year ago near the edge of a cemetery. The birds had streamed overhead as I was walking down a street. They made no sound except like clothes flapping on a clothesline, and this is where they came to roost.

If you live in Minnesota, it's very important to teach your child how to swim at an early age. Swimming lessons should be free for all children.

Western Minnesota voters did not vote against Christian Nationalism. They picked Michelle Fischbach to bring America back to God. With subtlety, like this nice sunset over Golgotha.

Harris-Walz sounds like a tractor company, and this would not hurt the Midwestern vote.

Albert Lea seniors are being shunted all over for hospital beds, so I crunched daily averages for ICU and med surg bed usage in MN this year. SE MN has the LEAST bed availability of any rural area in the state. Mayo is ripping up rural healthcare to help finance its grandiose projects in Rochester.
