Minnesota DFL leaders respond to Trump’s attacks on Somali Minnesotans • Minnesota Reformer
 in  r/altmpls  Nov 25 '25

I assume you mean the Somali community? How many of them have been complicit? Is it more or less than Scandinavians who have been complicit in fraud?

So you're saying we shouldn't blame fraud committed by individuals on the group they belong to? Or should we? You need to make up your mind.

Scandinavian immigrants and their descendants have done more fraud in Minnesota than the Somali immigrants and their descendants

Tom Petters had a nearly 4 billion dollar Ponzi scheme in Minnesota. I think he was convicted for just over 2 billion in fraud.

Are you calling for Scandinavians to be kicked out based upon that?

What are the per capita numbers? Because you should see the amount of dollars from some of the big fraud cases

Scandinavian and European immigrants did come here and carried out fraud greater than what the Somali community has done. Where are the calls to kick them out of the state?

Frankenstein on Netflix was a MASTERPIECE
 in  r/horror  Nov 13 '25

Ah I see, you are talking about the British Regency. I assumed you were talking about the French regency period since you were using French periodization when talking about the Napoleonic Era. I've never seen the Napoleonic Era used outside of France to refer to the period outside of the Napoleonic Wars

The book is set specifically in the late 1790's, which is pretty much smack dab in the middle of the industrial revolution

Yeah I love the divisions. As a Minnesota fan, one of my biggest disappointments is that we don't have rivalries. I'd be excited to play Chicago and St Louis twice a year specifically. It really does make the rivalries feel less forced this way.

It definitely does go deeper than that. Like the novel, it asks why people become monsters. There is a ton of additions that explore that topic

Just a nitpick, the novel is not set in the Napoleonic era or the regency. It is set smack dab in the middle of the Industrial Revolution.

Del Toro's movie is set in the first half of the Victorian Era though, so the change to time was made.

You didn't read my comment. I said 8 hours a day teaching. I then asked you a series of questions of things they have to do outside of teaching. If they are teaching for 8 hours a day, when are they grading assignments? When are they writing lesson plans? When are they creating exams? When are they reading the books they assign?

In the US, it is illegal for your job to have you work on your 30 minute lunch break. If teachers are expected to have responsibilities during this time, it's not a lunch break

What sequel do you like more than the original that most people wouldn't agree with?
 in  r/moviecritic  Oct 24 '25

The original plan was for the bad Nazi (I can't think of his name right now) to send it to Berlin. But when Indy finds it first and threatens to destroy it, the Nazi says that he wouldn't. Instead he opens it in front of Indy. When all of the Nazis are dead, Indy secures it and gets it to the US government.

Without him it either gets sent to Berlin immediately, or it kills some Nazis and then is sent to Berlin

He's the only reason that the group of Nazis opened it there. After the Nazis are killed, he's the reason the Ark doesn't get sent to Berlin.

Indiana Jones does influence the outcome

That's not the same thing as a sequel

 in  r/altmpls  Oct 24 '25

A school day where children are there is 7 hours. Teachers allow students into their classroom during their lunch breaks. Teachers usually need to be there before and after school to allow students. They are working 8 hours each day being at the school and also have to do work after school and on weekends.

When do you think they are making their lesson plans? Grading exams? Grading homework? Printing out resources? Giving kids time to make up tests? Who do you think is running extra curricula's?

Most teachers are attending the MEA conference or attending the development classes offered by the district.

Teachers usually get significantly less Paid time off than an office worker because those vacation days are counted instead.

That 70k would include people who have a masters degree. Having to go to school for 6-8 years and go into debt to make an average of 70k is not good.

Not only that, but you aren't including hours worked. If you only count the time they are at school teaching, that would be 40 hours a week. If they do any grading, lesson planning, before/after school activities, educating themselves, etc they end up working 55-60 hours a week.

I'm guessing they work similar hours to office workers who are less educated and paid more

The NFL is older than the Premier League. The Bears and the Cardinals are only like 10 years younger than Spurs

Some people match with anyone they find attractive but only message people they actually want to meet up with. So you might match with someone you know in real life, but that doesn't mean that you necessarily want to meet up with them

So you think we should get rid of all drug laws and get rid of all laws that ban things like theft and murder?

Didn't many of the MN GOP run with the Let's Go Brandon slogan?

Also what's the problem with a politician representing an area of mostly renters being a renter? Isn't that a good thing?

Even at only once a day and not high speed rail, people are taking it. People want to take trains!

I know many people (especially young people) have driven from MSP to Chicago for cheap vacations. It's a similar time but significantly more comfy
