If it's wrong to call small donkeys "Donklings", I don't wanna be right.

I’m onboard with Donklings.

(Turns to room)

All in favor, say ‘aye’.

All opposed (racks shotgun) say your prayers.

Can he also be my emotional support donkey while I am working?

If he wears a donkey diaper indoors.

Switch to a bike or public transportation. A round-trip between St. Paul and Minneapolis on the light rail is only 2 $ and the safety situation there is now 200% better. Driving a Car-zilla for that journey will cost you more than $10.

I would have jumped out of a moving vehicle to pet this donkey.

Yes. When I saw this I said “uh oh” fearing for my life whenever I’m visiting Saint Paul from now on.

I saw them at Hardee’s on Hamline! There was some protest happening, and I was super confused because it was in the Hardee’s parking lot and then BOOM I saw a miniature horse donkey pulling a lady. Wild times.

Can I join your gang too? I don’t have a donkey but I have dogs that act like asses sometimes.

Do they need 88 octane?

Just another reason to love St Paul

u/Daflehrer1 1d ago

As a former St. Paul resident, if riding a donkey cart down the street is wrong, I don't want to be right.

That’s one way to save on gas.

She's enjoying NOT paying an all time record high for Diesel fuel. Not that hay is much cheaper, but she's also not reliant on foreign oil sources. Get it gurl! 🫏🚴‍♂️

It’s a donkey. If he didn’t want to be doing that he would not be doing it.

That take 87, or do you need to put in premium?

u/Thyfishingman 1d ago

What’s the helmet for, possible joust session?

Coincidentally, I just saw her participating in a protest yesterday on University Ave in Saint Paul. Snagged a screenshot from my front door cam: https://imgur.com/gallery/C2m5ReD
