I have to wonder how much local LE/politicians/news orgs are kind of counting on the coming weather + holiday drowning this story out. Sharing this video at your Thanksgiving table might be an important thing you can do in the next couple of days.

Traded some dollar coins for a couple small things at Sunday’s Odd Market at Odd Mart.

And found a book I wanted in an LFL.

Critics say a proposed ban on cryptocurrency kiosks in St Paul will harm small businesses who specialize in scamming your grandma and will just push grandmas to nearby towns to get scammed.

A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.

Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."

Here's how to turn it off.
