Quebec culture is a huge circlejerk. n_u


I recently followed the Saint Lawrence all the way through on Google Maps. I would love to do that in real life someday.

you should keep posting things like that, it helps me appreciate this state more n_u

for the longest time i would always say i hate living here. i do not think this is so anymore, but there are still some parts that majorly suck about living in RURAL minnesota. there are perks though.


Honestly, I think anywhere honest is beautiful and would be wonderful to visit and experience. Minnesota is very honest.

Very little of Minnesota is traditional plains rural. Even the southwest, which I would consider the least interesting part of the sate has the Minnesota valley, which is very interesting, to me at least. I guess the very far southwestern corner of the state, and the triangle east of I-35, north of I-94, and west of the border are both places that are very similar to elsewhere, but other than that, Minnesota is a fairly unique place.

well he spent a lot of time in the twin cities and was a huge part of the whole dinkytown folk music circuit and such and wait i'm sure you already know all of this by now

but yeah i think the range associates itself with him too

but i hear he's never showed up for Dylan Days in Hibbing


yeah I think I heard Prince mentioned a lot more, too. dylan in dinkytown though. there's even a nice mural. imo bob deserves prayers offered up to him every day, not to the man Bob Dylan (especially as he is now ugh), but to the idea he was when he was doing his cool stuff. those were world-changing words. the likes of rimbaud. sry generic

agreed


Like seriously we'd sit in our apartment and watch bands of drunk students stumble down the street screaming, literally screaming, trying to fuck with anyone who walked by. Once I saw a guy actually start destroying a car right across the street and had to yell 'hey I'm calling the cops' to get him to leave. Thousands of fucking sheltered white kids who think they own the world because they suddenly have the 'freedom' to walk around this little college neighborhood and put on their big man front for everybody to see.

you do shit like that here, and someone will come fucking shoot you.
