I talk a *lot* of shit about MN but the number of people who do not live here thinking that everything good is a ruse is truly depressing. Sorry you don't have nice things! Yes, no one can merge, but also we have better arts funding and health outcomes and also my house was cheaper than yours.

You used to be able to google the time of the sunset, and Google would give you the exact time right on top every single time. Thankfully, with artificial intelligence, you can now ask Google what time the sun will set and it will conveniently tell you "I don't know."
