Dayton is a Dem, though It's true that appointments at that level don't tell you much about leanings.

Need to correct. He was shot 1st. Wellness check was on her.

It was a really weird session in terms of numbers and control, but it ended up Dems +1 in the Senate and tied in the House, though Republicans had the Speaker. At any rate, they are not currently in session.

They were apparently doing a proactive wellness check because they knew he lived nearby. Just barely too late, but likely the reason he and his wife are still alive.

No, she was not a US rep. State Rep (and until this year, Speaker of the House). He is a State Senator.

Minnesota lawmakers shot by person impersonating as a police officer *Update—2 killed*
I already started one in the News forum. Maybe change it to "The Political Assassinations Thread". There will be more.

That's how it appears. They're neighboring suburbs though so it wouldn't have taken long to get from one to the other. I just spoke to my In-laws who live right on the border of the two. They were woken up by the emergency notice to shelter in place, and just got another to stay inside and not open the door.

Casting - Hits and Misses
I stand by the above post, but I hadn't realized that this thread was as long as it is- so it's unlikely those haven't already been suggested. Here's a deep cut for the Miss category though. For those of you who don't remember, this was a Cyrano de Bergerac adaptation in which Thurman (looks) and Garofalo (personality) combined efforts and fooled a dude into thinking they were one person. The problem- and I'll go to my grave with this opinion- is that Garofalo is way better looking that Thurman in this movie.

Um... What?- Bleach Blonde Bad Built Butch Body in Congress? Oh you mean Marjorie!
Disgusting, but doesn't really matter. He's convicted of state charges too. They'll simply move him to a state prison for the duration of that sentence- because Walz is sure as he'll not letting him go.- Concerts you are attending

Sure, that.

- GPS boundary dog collars
I don't have any knowledge of GPS programmable perimeters. I think you're kidding with what the post above infers but for others, if not you, I want to encourage to have reasonable, and humane, expectations about training, effectiveness, and how it's supposed to work. There are two categories of eCollar- I use both. They are both good training aids but have slightly different purposes. However, the goal in both is to not have to zap. 1) Active monitoring (you have the remote and utilize the collar to reinforce verbal commands). This is like an invisible leash. It took about two weeks until the vibrate-only feature and command were enough, and another month until the command itself was reliable. 2) Passive Monitoring (you set a perimeter that the dog learns- though training not pain- not to cross). This is your invisible fence, and what you appear to be asking about. It took two weeks of consistent daily training for each of my dogs on our electric fence (buried line). Assuming you have the ability to physically flag the boundaries at the lake and work daily on it up to Memorial, I don't think the GPS version would be any different. Please don't just set a parameter and leave it to the ZAP to tell them they've gone too far. It will only terrorize and confuse your dog.- Preparing for Empty Shelves and Increased Expenses
We just stocked up on batteries, paper towels, and toilet paper, but who knows.- The Last of Us coming to HBO
I'm not giving up yet, but I'm getting serious "Silo" Season 2 vibes here, in that we're introduced to and force fed a bunch of new characters that are just flat out non-compelling- either because they're poorly written, or played by shitty, miscast actors. Obviously, in both Silo and (and especially) Last of Us, the source material is pretty rigid. However, there are creative and casting decisions that I think are going to hurt them this season. And all that's to say nothing about Bella, who I actually still like in her role, though it remains to be seen (for me at least), whether she can evolve the character in season 2.- Wordle [spoilers inevitable but discouraged]
