‘Militantly illegal police conduct’: Conviction shatters years of protection for #ThunderBay police sergeant.
The guilty verdict exposes not just one rogue officer, but a culture of corruption and systemic racism inside the TBPS.

If you’ve been watching Thunder Bay closely for 30 yrs, you know that even if the verdict had been different, the story would have been the same: systemic failings in police culture cause systemic failures to conduct proper investigations & fail to produce just outcomes.

My analysis is based on his beard and this video, but mostly his beard. youtu.be/L9tPOulWHNE?...
Yes, please. Thank you.
I love driving by their manufacturing facility and seeing a semi trailer full of potatoes hoisted in the air.

Can you place a bet on gambling addiction rates going up?
Caldeira is a grown ass man.
Grateful to see Jimmie in my timeline.
No, the leagues only care about money. Racism towards black players in not uncommon (see Vinicius Jr. for a recent example) A handful of teams across Europe have left wing progressive fan bases and the teams promote inclusivity and social justice. St. Pauli, Livorno in Italy. Liverpool even.
Left wing, progressive fan bases. I have no interest in putting up with the worst aspects of the European game. St. Pauli in der Bundesliga is fantastic.
I regret waking up.

Via Wikipedia: The coat of arms of the city of Almaty is a base in the form of a round eastern shield, in the foreground of which is snow leopard depicted holding a branch with eight apple-tree flowers in its mouth, which personify eight districts of the city of Almaty. The leopard walks forward with a confident gait, its right paw is raised up for the next step forward, but at the same time the leopard's head is turned back, which indicates the continuity in the development of the city from ancient times to the present. In the background is the snowy peak of the majestic mountains of Alatau, in the fertile area of which the city of Almaty is located. The background of the entire coat of arms is blue - the color of flag of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The circle is framed with decorative linear ribbons and nests uyka with elements of shanyrak. On a gold background, the Kazakh national ornament is depicted in red around the ring, which is intertwined with the fonts in the word "Almaty". The coat of arms of the city includes the following colors: gold, red, blue, white, pink and silver. I could not have said it better myself.
Love the discourse on the Minneapolis and Saint Paul flags, logos, and seals, but have you ever seen the coat of arms of Almaty, Kazakhstan?
Feel like Nanny’s excels at stews, West Indies has the grill. There’s one or two other options north of university in Saint Paul now as well that I haven’t got to.
Let me know, and I'll meet you there. Then we can go get the best Jamaican in town at Nanny's. Rice Street has some good things going on.
One lengua and two al pastor tacos, salsas, and a bottle of coca cola.
I agree with @jrnorton.bsky.social, Tromperia El Zac has the best Al pastor in town. The lengua is great too.
I mean, I'd love to see that change, but it'll get a LOT of pushback because no part of the system wants to admit how broken it is
Learning that many local and county emergency rental assistance funds require an eviction notice before support is made available. Is that a policy that can be changed at the local level?
A bowl of pho.
Pho Pasteur is so good. I get cravings for their tendon. I’m going to fall asleep in a booth one of these visits.
Sorry, Elliot and Bill Jaffe, this Jew is gonna keep on making Anne Frank references to the ICE invasion as long as people hide in homes out of fear of being sent to literal human warehouses with no real medical care. Anne Frank likely died of typhus. www.startribune.com/mn-ice-immig... (gift link)

It's a crime we aren't all eating fresh paw paw in the Midwest.
There are an estimated 40,000 edible fruit species worldwide. We get access to a few dozen that can be picked before they're ripe, spend months in shipping, and are bruise-resistant.
The Cavendish banana is vulgar and disappointing (buy Thai bananas instead). Noni tastes like bile.
