r/Minneapolis

We are super efficient at social justice. We’re one of the most progressive states and have high state income taxes, yet we have some of the lowest gasoline prices. It’s because we spend our taxes correctly. I firmly believe Minnesota is the best state in America be union.

Please share your favorite local publishers for those of us who LOVE to read on paper. In anticipation of many people sharing our fantastic literary and historic publishers I’ll share one that is smaller and more niche. For horror I like the annual sub club from Weird Punk books. Their short novellas are perfect for a flight out of MSP.

There's been a very sad-sounding orange cat around our place today. Just wondering if anyone was searching for a lost pet.

English is my second language but it’s practically my first language.

I’ve lived in MN for almost 11 years now, originally from Colombia.

Raspberry beret and when doves cry are my favorites. Those songs are so good. Purple rains also another classic haha.

Lights and sirens nearly 2 dozen cop cars going south on lyndale from 40th, seemed like there was some swat in the mix too.

I told my bosses (a married couple) that I was expecting at 18 weeks - now 24 weeks. I’m a nurse at an AL. I was super nervous about telling them since I am the only nurse at this small owned AL and I know that they will have to find someone for my leave in the interim. They caught me off guard when they asked how many weeks I planned on taking as I didn’t know at the time but they mentioned 6 weeks as if they hope that’s all I’m taking. I feel a lot of pressure being the only nurse and that they rely on me completely for their business. I just don’t think it’s fair to be feel obligated to take the shortest leave so I don’t inconvenience them. With the new paid leave, I was hoping to take 12 at the least. I’m grateful for the new leave because my employer does not offer maternity leave benefits or any benefits for that matter. I now realize I could actually take up to even 20 weeks per my doctor. As this is my first baby, I would like to soak up as much of it as I can. I was worried about even attempting to tell them I wanted 12 weeks off and the backlash. I need to come up with a plan and give them an actual time frame but just can’t work up the courage. Help🥲

In the North Loop. Anyone else seeing a power outage?

Looking for a good bottomless mimosa spot. I’ve been to the copper hen which is great, but looking for another spot.

Hi! Looking for a solid card shop that has a lot of Pokémon to take our kids ages 8 and 6 to in Minneapolis or west metro.

Wondering if anyone remembers or has a picture of a religious mural that used to be on the building across from Maria's Cafe. I believe it was at that location YEARS ago. I had snapped a photo but can't find it anymore. I recall it being very.. umm unintentionally inappropriate looking..

Hi everybody, so my partner, and I may be moving from the cities back home to Texas by the end of the year beginning of next. I love being in Minnesota and will miss it dearly. But before we go I want to make the most of the spring, summer, and fall. Is there any recommendations for things we need to do before leaving the Twin Cities? Even things outside of the cities would be great too. A Minnesota bucket list if you will. Thanks guys.

Hi community --

I was recently talking with a friend about my son's upcoming birthday party and how I often make custom shirts for him and his friends and family.

As the conversation went further along, I also mentioned that my son has interest in learning how to screen print and I was wondering how much it would cost for start up materials and the like.

My friend then told me that there are companies that will bring screen printing materials to your place and print shirts for you there, on site.

I've been searching and haven't found what I'm looking for just yet, but upon thinking more about it, this may be something for larger corporate events.

So I'm posting here to see if maybe there are any independent screen printers who know anything about this or have any ideas for me on anyone who may be interested in doing something like this at a smaller level, or where I might look to find someone in this realm.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Did anyone else see that? I know there are roving gangs of turkeys around the city, but a lone turkey on the highway was a bit bizarre.

Also, would that be an Animal Care & Control worthy call? I'm worried the birb will get hit.
