I can't compete with this.

Happy Monday Minnesota

Finally, something Bruce Pearl and the ayatollah can bond over

NEON MOON IS SAD! VOTE NOW! KATE BUSH IS FORMIDABLE!

Oof, we’re gonna have a forever College Football Playoff.

This was a great read! When I moved to St. Paul from Tuscaloosa there was a huge campaign to stop them from building a “massive” 5,000 person arena (there were lawn signs!) & I found it so quaint

Two guys who got their asses handed to them in Minnesota

Tell Kristi I want her to know it was me

Never in doubt! A hard fought and sad battle comes to a close. Some real bangers & lovely essays this round!

kill the imposter syndrome in you head because not only is there someone out there doing it worse than you, they're also using chat gpt to do it

Anyways.

No Doubt doesn’t hold up allllll the way for me but about 80 percent which is very impressive for bands of my youth!

Down to the wire, fam. Please vote for me and nostalgia sadness! There’s a photo of me from high school at the bottom of the essay!
