Hey hey I live in MPLS

And here's what I'd do: Eats: - young joni or Kim's (Ann Kim is a genius) - you probably won't get into Owamni but you can try - seward cafe if you want some classic mpls progressive crunchy vegan options and brunch - 112 eatery and sit at the bar - centro or anything on eat street (check out eat street diner's club comic linked- my partner draws it) Otherwise: - go to the MIA - it's free and kinda like a mini-Met - walk around a lake even if it's chilly (Isles is great for first timers) - See some live music (First Ave/Entry/Berlin/Zhora Darling) - Walker sculpture garden and see the Jenny Holzer benches & the cherry and spoon. museum is between shows so I wouldn't pay full admission(keith haring is on its way) but it's an A+ museum

small but mighty

Minneapolis definitely punches above its weight (especially when you add in St. Paul). Here are some of my faves in various categories: Non-fancy eats: - Wrecktangle Pizza (best pizza in mpls imo) - Francis Burger Joint (bomb plant-based food) - Nicos tacos (solid drinks and Mexican food) - Boludo (good Argentinian-style pizza) - French Meadow (great large and reliable selection of reasonably priced food and one of the first organic restaurants from back in the day) More expensive eats (might be hard to get into these without a reservation, but if you go on the earlier side you can usually get in): - Oro (delicious high-end mexican) - Young Joni (fun pizzas and a speakeasy in the back) - Gai Noi (high end Laotian) - Sanjusan (Japanese Italian fusion with good cocktails) - Owamni (native food that will make you stop and think about alternative realities devoid of colonization) - Guacaya (tapas style latin food that's delicious and good cocktails) Divey bars: - Meteor (more trendy dive) - Dutch bar (more trendy dive) - Anywhere in the northeast for old and legit dive bars Cocktails: - Elusive (good cocktails and usually not very crowded) - Billy After Dark (trendy basement bar where you order purely on mood/vibes) - Back bar at young joni (chill classic speakeasy vibes) - Bronto Bar (more packed but fun) - Flora Room (trendy and expensive) - Berlin (have live music and is a new, trendy, and fun spot) Bakeries: - Black Walnut (delicious pastries, and only place I know that has a chocolate banana croissant) - Savory Bakehouse (only open friday - sunday, great treats that change by the week, but get there early because they sell out) - Patisserie 46 (huge and reliable selection) - Edwards Dessert Kitchen (open late and also has cocktails) Coffee: - Dogwood (specialty, third wave, delicious) - Mojo (wooden, cluttered with vibes) - Duck Duck Go (good community and comedy on sundays) Activities: - Walking around on Nicollet Island and Boom Island Park, you can also cross and walk along the Mississippi on the downtown side and can then walk to pryes brewery - The lakes - Tons of bookstores (personal favorites are bookhouse in dinkeytown, eat my words, and uncle hugos) - Breweries and cideries galore - art studios in northeast - Art Museums (Weisman is free and associated with the university) Weekend pop ups: - Dahlia (delicious brunch and pastries) - Mogi (great bagels)

Skip the express checkout

Wait in the line. Wait in the fucking line, talk to the cashier and make a joke. Hone your small talk. if we stop using the express checkouts they will shut em down. They’ll give the cashiers more hours, more demand and more money. it’ll result in them having more power. Talking shit about AI is easy but now it’s time to choose the people over the robots in person. In real life.

ungendering

I think a lot of kids grow up with largely friends of their same gender. That’s the problem. Heteronormativity and seperating the genders in every aspect of life. sports, activities, friend groups. We condition men (and women!) to begin othering the opposite sex from birth. When in doubt, ungender it.
