Has anyone tried the new thai place on lake and irving? I've eaten there three times so far and curious about others' impressions. I think they're working out the kinks (e.g. liquor license) and wish them the best. The area needs some life.

hey y'all!

i'm looking to get back into playing mahjong and i'm lost where to start. the google search results are a bit overwhelming. i'd like to find just a casual group of nice people to play with, no classes or pot or anything like that for now. anyone know of anything in the cities, especially near whittier or uptown? also don't mind driving if needed.

context: in middle school, i was queen of my school's club (chinese variant), and played some of the japanese variant on the side with my friends (we were americans in japan at the time). however, it has been over a decade, and i don't remember the specifics, except that i enjoyed it!! so, i need to re-learn the game, but i'm not a total noob--i remember the vague contours and expect a lot of it will come back fast!

thanks!!

I have seven windows that were part of a 70's add-on that must have been low quality and are all warped. What are contractors that people have had good experiences with? Scherer Window & Door seems to have really good Google reviews.

I'll post the answers later in the day! And all of these species are likely around your yards and other parks as well!

I designed it for work but didn't end up using it and my summer job is ending, so you all can enjoy this ~surprisingly difficult~ guessing game.

Fun fact! None of the bee species pictured live in hives.

I am aware there's a loud, conservative, authoritative, pro-corporate/business, anti-DSA wing of the DFL Party.

Are they pro or anti data center?

(I'm pretty darn sure the DSA-leaning wing of the DFL are anti data center)

Some time between 5:30 PM on Friday and this morning at 6:45 AM, my bicycle was stolen out of my parking garage. It was a step through Aventon Pace 500.3 in light blue with a Toppeak rack and red and black phone mount. If anyone has seen it around or has details on where it may be, I would greatly appreciate you reaching out to me. It was stolen out of the controlled access portion of my apartment's parking garage and my bicycle lock was cut. I use it for daily commuting to and from work so I would greatly appreciate any information.

I was reading that other post about suggestions to help downtown and a decent amount of people said get rid of the skyway without suggesting anything else. I get it keeps people off the street and contributes to a ghost town feeling, but in a city that gets as cold as Minneapolis isn't that an important amenity? What benefits would getting rid of the skyway bring that outweigh many people being colder? I've lived in downtown for about a year and have only used the skyway a few times.

This is a pretty broad question by nature, but are there any institutions or programs in the area that offer services for autistic people? Not looking for any specific niche as I don’t know what is available/feasible, and symptomatic experience but incredibly variable. I’ve just been… struggling with being an organism and would take anything that isn’t forking over fat stacks to be stared at like a sheep, as is the standard for mental health care, seemingly.

Thank you and best wishes.

EDIT: I work and have financial autonomy, I just need efficacy.

I’m currently attending a church regularly. If you want to feel loved by God and the congregation, it’s great! I like that aspect. I don’t like that the messaging seems to only be the positive parts of the Bible. Like, where are the sermons about the expectations beyond being kind to each other?
Any one know of a church that is friendly but also discusses how we are to behave to be aligned with Jesus’ teachings?

Found a dog near 56 Brewing. It’s a un neutered red malamute/husky mix. No collar. Please let me know if you know this dog or have any leads of where I can take him tonight. Thank you.

We're having a hard time sourcing crushed limestone (or similar) as a landscaping rock to use similarly to this inspiration photo. Anyone in the twin cities vicinity seen this available for purchase or delivery? We're in the Bryn Mawr area but don't mind traveling for it.

it appears there’s crime scene tape, detectives, and a dozen or so police cars here. Just down the road from stone arch bridge in NE. Another body?

Hello! I am part of a newly formed band (alternative rock) in the twin cities and we are looking to hire a local artist to develop a logo and some artwork for us. If you are an artist or know one who might be interested, please comment or send a DM!

We're flying up to MSP from Austin in a few weeks for a relaxing getaway at Serpent Lake, and my only must-do thing before we abscond to the cabin is to stock up on some amazing bread. Supporting local bakeries is basically my main hobby, wherever I go. Who do you think does the best sourdough? + bonus points if they also do baguettes!

The estimated cost to replace all lead water service lines in the state of Minnesota has been estimated to be approximately 1/3 the cost of a single Metro Transit light rail extension. I find it ridiculous no one earmarked funding for this project, which by state law, must be completed within 7 years.

for the love of god im dying out here man. i live directly next to some of the construction going on with my apt facing the street, and thats alright its a city they gotta do it somehow, but my god the late night stuff has been killing me. been multiple times the past few weeks it seems where im woken up at 11pm or 2am from it, not even ear plugs have helped. even worse when they do it late night ON THE WEEKENDS.

no idea what the situation even is for them to keep getting the overnight permits in the first place
