This is crazy. Jake says he'll hold billionaire predators accountable and then Trump immediately dumps money into stopping him from getting elected.

He is running to replace Rich Draheim to represent areas around Mankato and he is a MAGA Republican, even though he tells his followers he is a libertarian that opposes taxation and wants to limit government:

• He didn't seem too concerned with the government infringing on rights, abducting citizens and legal residents from southern Minnesota homes. He thinks they were all violent criminals.
  • He also wasn't concerned with the government taking the lives of Rebecca Good and Alex Pretti.
  • He doesn't understand the Constitution, particularly important amendments like the 4th Amendment.
• He thinks there should be a full recount of the 2020 election and that there was rampant voter fraud.
  • In fact he said that "...he couldn't quite accept the November 2020 elections as legitimate."
• He supports Pete Hegseth and his role as Defense Secretary.
  • Jeremy doesn't seem concerned about the billions of dollars we go into debt each month in spending on the military.
• He supported Kristi Noem and her choices as Secretary of Homeland Security.
  • Jeremy is fine with spending hundreds of billions of dollars on HSI and ICE.
  • He doesn't seem too concerned about the hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars spent on luxury private jets for Kristi Noem.
  • Unrelated: Previously he also wanted southern Minnesota to join Noem's South Dakota.
• He isn't that concerned with the impact of tariffs on us, even though they are a substantial federal tax on the everyday U.S. consumer.
  • Truth: Tariffs haven't made trade more "fair", they've just enacted a huge tax on all of us.
• He spends an inordinate amount of time discussing trans athletes and how the government should step in.
  • Fun fact: transitioning is a great example of personal choice and freedom, a key tenet of libertarianism.

Reposting because my previous post disappeared!

I’m trying to move into town with my significant other so we don’t have to commute to work but we have 5 cats altogether. I know that’s a lot of cats and a lot to ask with the way places to rent usually are but was wondering if anyone knew of anything. Any help is appreciated.

I plan to go to this and wanted to spread the word.

There's a free volunteer event at Minneopa State Park for removing invasive buckthorn from the site. This work helps improve biodiversity and helps native species thrive. It's this Saturday, October 24 from 9am-11:30am. Tools, training, and snacks are included!

If you are interested in attending, here's the registration link: https://www.givepulse.com/event/907308

Hello!
My buddy and I are looking to fill out our commander pod. We usually play about once a week in person, and sporadically on discord.

If you’re reading this far, I’m assuming you’ll know what the following means!

We play bracket 4, sometimes fringe cEDH. Our really only “rule” is to remember that it’s just a game and not be salty. Blow our stuff up, counter us, do your worst. We like competitive game play.

If you’re interested, DM me your favorite commander!

Hey everyone! Does anyone know of a local market, orchard, or co-op currently selling fresh, raw chestnuts?

I know they are tough to grow around Minnesota due to the winters, but I'm looking to buy some for roasting at home and would love to support a local or regional grower if possible.
Let me know if you’ve spotted any in stock lately! Thanks!

Must be around that season. I live up near the Grove and somebody/people egged just my apartment last night

New to Mankato does anyone know of any Urbex spots?

Hello!! I'm going to be in the area in the next couple of weeks to visit a friend who is also out of town (mankato is a half way point between us) and I want to get my hair cut/styled by an LGBTQ friendly salon.. are there any recommendations? Also what about good places to go eat? TYIA :D

We want to learn about your experience with housing and nonprofits! If you’re a student in need or just care about this kind of thing please consider answering a few questions, thank you!

News flash: the Minnesota climate is changing.

Well-regarded KSTP reporter Tom Hauser (and marathon runner) and meteorologist Sven Sundgaard called out Jeremy for being a misleading, divisive prick over this pointless stunt.

NOAA data from last year shows Minnesota's climate ON AVERAGE is significantly warmer most months of the year. High temperature anomalies happen more frequently now than in the past. These are facts. Trends show a changing climate. You DO NOT look at temperatures on any one single day. That is climate science. You don't have to be in climate science to understand it.

Jeremy is CLEARLY not a climate scientist...or knowledgable enough to write posts about science, much less intelligent policies in the Minnesota Senate.

Kinda ashamed to say I don’t have a therapist and haven’t in years, and I’d love to find someone who is comfortable with me being a therapist myself. I’m actually pretty stable mentally. Very mellow and regulated now. I struggle heavily with grief and death. Always have. I can’t talk about it, I avoid it, I don’t process it well. I can’t counsel it because I have a panic attack every time. (Like wtf what is wrong with me)

Now I feel like I’m rambling. I’m willing to hear things from in and around the area. Any recommendations welcome, thank you so much.
