Finnish does have closely related neighbors in its family (meΓ€nkieli, kven, karelian, veps, estonian, etc) as well as more distantly related near neighbors (saami languages), they're just not majority languages in their countries (except for Estonian) so they tend to escape notice.

Name of Mexico - Wikipedia

Mexico city's old name Tenochtitlan is something like "among the prickly pears in the rocks" or something, prickly pear is edible! Also Mexico city -- one of the plausible etymologies involves agave:

Minineapolis City Council passes resolution with comments on MnDOT's I-94 reconstruction planning. They oppose expansion or rebuilding as is. Encourage consideration of at-grade alternatives, reducing vehicle miles traveled, public health, safety, alternative transportation.

They should make merch for the first one to get everyone really excited about public restrooms becoming a thing here. A parody of Kiss 'n' fly feels appropriate

it's a great thing that the conversation around housing affordability has changed so much in the last 10 years that it doesn't seem like as big of a reelection risk to take a stand on it at the state level.
