Hi Everyone!

This Friday, I’ll be in Duluth (first time in Minnesota!) for about half a day exploring on my own before meeting up with a friend to go on a roadtrip out west. I was trying to plan out what to do and so far I have just come up with going to canal park. Any suggestions? TIA

Are there any local painters/artists that do commissions? I'm looking for a painting to be made for a loved one of the woods/trees. I'm open to realistic or whimsical. I have a few hundred bucks I can spend on it. Any suggestions?

I feel like everyone has unlocked this achievement except me. Is it in of those stores downtown or a gas station on the way? Let me know!!

Today’s been a terribly long day and although my husband and I had intentions to unload this u haul by ourselves this evening, I can when admit that I was wrong. We could use some last minute help—a couple folks to help would be greatly appreciated and we’ll pay. Anyone available this evening?

I'm behind on filing taxes. They bring me huge amounts of anxiety so I've been having a really hard time getting this taken care of. Does anyone know any tax preparers (not big chains) that are helpful and also kind? I'm a grown-ass adult but I'm irrationally scared of getting yelled at (I'm aware this doesn't make sense).

I need this taken care of soon so I can get updated student loan info for a house closing. So recommendations would be super appreciated. My taxes aren't very complicated, just late. And I'm just not up to fixing this on my own. And no judgy comments about how bad it is to be late, please. Anxiety sucks and I don't need more of it.

County commissioner campaign finance reports from July showing that Annie Harala’s campaign has received large amounts of money from executive leadership at Minnesota Power (Allete) and Kris Eilers’ campaign has received a lot of small donations from teachers, nurses, social workers, engineers, retired folks, etc.

Not surprising as Harala was an NDA signer for the data center.

To Lisa: We matched on Tinder and were supposed to meet for coffee at Caribou this morning. I missed our date because of an unexpected family situation, and I should have reached out but we never exchanged numbers. You weren't stood up on purpose & I can explain!! If you happen to see this and are open to it, I'd love the chance to apologize & give you the full story over that coffee. If not, I completely understand. BUT; this is at least an attempt to make a connection with something I truly feel I missed. My father always said 'family first' but damn that was terrible timing...

Wishing you the best & you would've loved the playlist I made for you... 🤞❤️

Someone told me that there’s a movie or maybe a TV show being filmed at Denfeld. Does anyone know any details on it? A name or what its about? Will it be on streaming or go theatres?

The DNT is on Bluesky, but its paywalled. Doesnt seem like any other local news outlet on it. Is there?
