So if the people laugh and giggle when you tell 'em where you live
Say "shhh, I still have home insurance"

"Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz has signed the nation's first law banning prediction market sites from operating in the state, the most far-reaching crackdown on massively popular services like Kalshi and Polymarket." (via @npr.org)
Minnesota becomes first state to ban prediction markets
While dozens of states have taken legal action against the controversial industry, Minnesota is the first state to pass a law making it a felony for companies like Kalshi and Polymarket to operate.

We are out of time. Childcare centers are closing, particularly in Greater Minnesota, leaving families without options. If we truly want to be the #beststate to raise a family, childcare needs to be supported and available everywhere across the state. #fundchildcare

Though it was disappointing to hear utter disregard from some legislators about the scale of impact if we lose almost $2 billion dollars of Medicaid funding, we still carry joy in the fight to #FundOurFutures & make MN #BestState. Thanks to @aishagomez.bsky.social for your leadership on this issue!

One of those days that reaffirms my belief of winter as being key to Minnesota's high level of civic engagement.

Folks stopping to help push cars out, neighbors shoveling each-other's sidewalks, people choosing to being out and about *because* of the weather.
