A buddy in MN shared a drawing a classmate of his kid made. They've been making thank you notes for parents who have volunteered to carpool them to school so their own parents don't have to risk waiting out by the bus stop.

It’s hard to overstate how much Minnesota has been a national flashpoint in the 2020s.
Especially for a state its size.
Not sure what explains this. Any theories?

Playoff football featuring the bright green warm field in Jacksonville doesn’t sit right at all.
Even weirder to see it clash with the Bills uniforms.

And Renee Good’s last words appear to be “We’re not mad at you.”
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.
