r/Minnesota is what YOU make it! We are a neutral grounds where Minnesotans come from all four corners of our great state to discuss the latest news, share great photography...and memes, discuss politics, the outdoors, and so much more! Keep it clean, keep it Minnesotan, please.
#1 - Must be related to Minnesota: All posts must relate to Minnesota in some way.
#2 - Personal Attacks: All users must behave respectfully towards other users. We gladly encourage all forms of argument or debate here in /r/minnesota, but when the discussion turns to attacking a person's character and not the ideas itself, you risk moderator action.
#3 - Discrimination: Posts that use any of the following characteristics of an individual/group as an explanation for behavior will not be tolerated.
Race
Religion/Belief System
Nationality/Ancestry
Sexual Orientation/Gender
Ability/Disability Status
Merely discussing such topics is not discriminatory.
Saying that all [these] people are [this] because they are [that] is.
Moderators will use our best discretion, but if you think it's discriminatory, it probably is, and you should re-think your post.
#4 - Craigslist-Like Posts: This is not the place to buy/sell/trade/crowdfund/hire, so please use one of the following subreddits: r/MNJobs | r/GoFundMe | /r/TWINCITIESHOUSING
#5 - Adult Content: Content that contains nudity, pornography, or excessive profanity, which a reasonable viewer may not want to be seen accessing in a public or formal setting such as in a workplace should not be posted.
#6 - Trolling: Please don't come here just to annoy people.
#7 - Major Changes to Already Titled Work: When submitting a link to an already titled work, users must use its original title, a properly punctuated quote from the article in addition to its original title, or properly punctuated bracketed paraphrasing or commentary in addition to its original title
This rule is strictly enforced when reporting the news.
#8 - No misinformation or unsubstantiated rumors: Verifiably false information is prohibited. This includes claims with links that do not support said claims.
Rumors of important changes and events (such as government policy changes, upcoming actions of public figures or entities, etc.) must originate from a reputable source, such as news media or established reporters.
#9 - Duplicates / Reposts: When submitting new content, please be sure it hasn't already been posted before or a long enough period has passed before reposting. This rule also covers cases in which a post is not identical to another, but covers the same story, event, or opinion without substantially differing information.
#10 - Follow Site-Wide Rules & Reddiquette: While we are less likely to enforce every reddiquette rule, we highly encourage everyone to familiarize themselves with both site-wide rules and reddiquette.
#11 - No Surveys or Petitions: To many, surveys and petitions fall into the category of "spam" and are considered a nuisance. Because of this, we no longer allow surveys or petitions on this subreddit. You could try posting to /r/change or /r/samplesize instead.

It's a joke, we are still allowed to do that right?

I have been having THE WORSt migraine for the last two days from this weather system. Anyone else?
it's snowing on HALLOWEEN and a year ago today, it was raining. i just wish the snow would've waited until November 1st.
Having two snow dogs is killing my knees. They have been in and out about 57 times today. The stairs are becoming a problem for my jacked up knees.
TURN ON YOUR GOSHDARNED HEADLIGHTS
AND YOUR DADGUMMED TAILLIGHTS TOO

Hi all,
I'm Kristin, a reporter at Marketplace, a business show that airs on NPR stations, including MPR. I grew up in the Twin Cities exurbs and am hoping to feature a Minnesotan in the project I'm working on.
I'm looking to tell in-depth stories about the economy and how people are living in it: how they're making financial decisions, how they spend their money day to day and how they feel about the economy and where they sit in it.
We're looking for a diverse pool of people when it comes to family structure, household income, age, etc. I'm especially lacking responses from soon-to-be retirees and older right now. But I'm still looking for people across all ages.
Interested in potentially participating? Please fill out the form linked below. And please share with anyone you know who might be interested.
Thanks for considering,
Kristin
Hello all,
It’s that time of the season where the weather is all over the place and I’m having trouble deciding when to install my winter tires.
I’m up in St. Cloud and the snow today had me a little worried since I was rolling on summers, but I’m seeing online to expect a warmer-than-average November. I don’t wanna chew up all the tread on my winters if there’s gonna be no snow.
So I’m curious, when do you guys decide to swap your tires?
anyone else not have any power right now? All the neighborhoods surrounding Wayzata Hugh School are completely put off power at the moment, including the high school. im a student at WHS and we can’t even eat lunch, and its getting pretty warm in the building. anyone know Xcel’s response time??
Muahahaha 😈 Have a great day and drive safe ya’ll! Happy Halloween! 🎃

Hastings is on track for a 10 percent increase in water bills, mostly due to 3m contamination of the water, with a further increase of up to 10 percent coming this summer. The current settlement money from 3m is enough to cover around half of one plant, with three treatment plants required to make the water safe to drink.
For a while now, I've been trying to find any information on county or city level nominees. I can find all sorts of information on the national and state level, but I cannot find any reputable info for other ballot items such as county commissioner or school board members. What resources have any of you used? Our local paper is definitely one-sided, so their information is biased. (I'm in a smaller, non-suburb town.)
Keith Ellison sent out a letter to many distributors and businesses that said they had to stop selling flavored Tobacco products but I did a little more research and even went to the page of the bill “MN HF2177” and it says it died on 5/20/24. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
This sure turned to shit real fast. Currently by Rockford.
