@madhands314@krassenstein Sooo you’re reading it wrong. The blue check means the state has that ban, the gray check means they do not. If you click on it, it tells you which state bans assist weapons and MN is not one. I have friends and family who own them legally, so I expected as much.
@MarmotRespecter The problem is that (in my experience) kids parties used to be family and my parents friends who would bring their kids if they had them. Now, the whole class is invited, so if every kid has a party, that’s 30 weekends! If you RSVP that you’re coming, you should show up tho
@clhubes Then you’ll accidentally think about the fact that everyone’s felt ok for like a week in a row and you’ll get hit with a Norovirus as punishment.
1. On Sept 26, Target announced it was closing nine stores "because theft and organized retail crime are…contributing to unsustainable business performance."
The release generated a flood of credulous media coverage
But now, @Target's the story is falling apart
🧵
@clhubes My 2 year old asks to go to the grocery store EVERY F*CKING DAY. She loves riding around, holding shit and telling me what to put in the cart. I often think fondly about all the boring shit my single mom drug me to. The grocery store, the bank, GAS. The toddlers are fine, y’all
More rock star glamour: walked to Target to get nail clippers and nose hair trimmer. Employees were right on me asking for selfies and telling me they love me. Two minutes later I get hit with a major urge to take a shit. They tell me bathroom is downstairs, I go there but ten people in line, I’m about to soil my trousers. I go to employees and plead, please can I use employees bathroom they say no employees only. I run across the street to some cafe and ask to use bathroom (on the way there a guy waiting outside tells me I’m an asshole for not stopping to take a selfie with him) the cafe lady threatens to call security on me for politely asking for bathroom. I made it by the skin of my teeth to a restaurant a few blocks away. Back to hotel to practice trumpet.
