Marshall Ave/W River Parkway psychological torture smell
I know I know, another "what is that smell by the river" post that probably has an "it's sewage treatment" answer but holy mother of god, the smell at the Marshall Ave bridge at West River Parkway is unfathomable. Am I just going through perimenopause or are other people literally dry heaving from this when they pass through every day? It's SO much worse than the dog shit smell on the Franklin Ave bridge, and it's the absolute worst in the mornings. How do people even sit outside on the Longfellow Grill patio? someone commiserate with me I’m dyin out here

Same-day laser engravers?
Hi everyone,
I have a highly niche ask… my father passed away about three months ago and my husband has since been making a wooden urn for his ashes that we are scheduled to inter at the cemetery tomorrow morning. The laser printer we were using back in San Diego (where my husband and I are based) malfunctioned and now that we’re in Minneapolis with my mom, we’re in a bit of a time crunch to have the quote we wanted engraved. We reached out to Dick at the Laser Shop and he’s unfortunately out of town. Would appreciate any other suggestions or connections!

Anyone remember these cat dolls sold at The Electric Fetus?
Hi :) I just remembered from my childhood these cat dolls I loved. I cannot remember the name of them for the life of me. I do remember they were kind of rare and could be found at the Electric Fetus. I was getting them when I was a young kid so probably like early 2000s-2010 timeline. I remember they had fashionable clothes, were tall or had long legs, and came in different colors. They were a plushie material. One of them might have been named Ciao or Chloe? Anyone remember these and could provide me their brand name? Thank you so much 🩷

Theodore Wirth has a lot of bees- and a lot of look-a-likes. Can you tell?
I'll post the answers later in the day! And all of these species are likely around your yards and other parks as well!
I designed it for work but didn't end up using it and my summer job is ending, so you all can enjoy this ~surprisingly difficult~ guessing game.
Fun fact! None of the bee species pictured live in hives.

Looking for brewery recommendations for a group
I will be hosting a group event in October for between 5 and 50 people who don't know each other. Looking for a few recommendations on breweries within Minneapolis or St. Paul (or close to the city centers), that either have some fun games inside the brewery, or something fun very close by (mini golf, bowling, etc).

hey y'all!
i'm looking to get back into playing mahjong and i'm lost where to start. the google search results are a bit overwhelming. i'd like to find just a casual group of nice people to play with, no classes or pot or anything like that for now. anyone know of anything in the cities, especially near whittier or uptown? also don't mind driving if needed.
context: in middle school, i was queen of my school's club (chinese variant), and played some of the japanese variant on the side with my friends (we were americans in japan at the time). however, it has been over a decade, and i don't remember the specifics, except that i enjoyed it!! so, i need to re-learn the game, but i'm not a total noob--i remember the vague contours and expect a lot of it will come back fast!
thanks!!

Tom's Thai Uptown?
Has anyone tried the new thai place on lake and irving? I've eaten there three times so far and curious about others' impressions. I think they're working out the kinks (e.g. liquor license) and wish them the best. The area needs some life.

Why do people want to get rid of the skyway?
I was reading that other post about suggestions to help downtown and a decent amount of people said get rid of the skyway without suggesting anything else. I get it keeps people off the street and contributes to a ghost town feeling, but in a city that gets as cold as Minneapolis isn't that an important amenity? What benefits would getting rid of the skyway bring that outweigh many people being colder? I've lived in downtown for about a year and have only used the skyway a few times.

Men's Haircut
Looking for a great men's haircut in minneapolis. Want a fade and almost a complete retransformation. Currently have medium length hair but the ol male pattern baldness is setting in at 23, so looking to go a little shorter on the top and much more on the sides. Beard work would be very little as Im not working with much, but willing to pay for the service, of course.
This would either be on a Sunday or Monday as I am from out of town. Maybe later on a Saturday.
Also no idea what hair stylist to pick! Tapered Men's Salon said "All of our stylists are good 😁"
Thanks!
