Our paper has stopped coming

 Yes, we still subscribe to the paper copy of our local city paper, the Star Tribune. It's not perfect, but I very much want to keep what's left of local journalism alive. And Richard doesn't use electronic media, so he actually reads the whole thing.

But last weekend it just stopped being delivered. Curiously, that means that two different carriers just stopped showing up: the weekend one and the weekday one. When I reported it I got a canned response and credit for the missed papers. But there probably isn't much they can do about it. The paper carriers are probably in hiding from ICE.

Probably.

I just got told by the NY Times that my daily delivery would be going up to $5/day. ($3.50/day if you subtract what a digital-only subscription costs.) They may be getting hit with labor shortages; I have no idea.

Ours, too. Over in Saint Paul. We got our paper copies today, but it's been a few days without. I also presume people are in hiding.
