1. Moisturize and drink lots of water 2. Get a membership to a gym, YMCA, rec center, etc., and use it often 3. Listen to new music, even stuff you wouldn't normally listen to 4. Invest in a good mattress and pillows 5. Don't let your growing career take time away from family, friends, and hobbies

Two innings down. This is one hell of a game so far. #Brewers #ThisIsMyCrew

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

Hi Internet! I'm Drew and THIS IS MY FACE. If this GIF has ever brought you joy in the past, I humbly ask you to consider making a donation to the National MS Society. It would mean a lot to me and to those I know affected by the disease! Donate at blinkingguy.com

Went to purchase Brewers playoff season tickets. They went on sale at 10am and were practically gone by 10:02. I can't even be upset about that, just incredible.

Tammy Baldwin is my senator. This afternoon, I called her office and left a message thanking her for signing onto this resolution.

"The Last Castle" is not a particularly good movie, but it's worth watching for the ending. Seeing Robert Redford righteously and methodically destroy James Gandolini's corrupt prison is 20 minutes you will not regret. Two acting titans giving 110%. #MovieSky

Got both the flu and COVID shots at my local Walgreens. If you make the appointment online, they'll ask for the chronic condition that qualifies you for the shot (if you otherwise don't qualify). The pharmacist confirmed it when I checked in. "I just need to check a box," she said, and that was it.

Got the flu shot and COVID shot yesterday. Shoulder was a little sore, but that was it. Usually the two shots together knock me out for about a day, but I've been feeling pretty good.

1. Follow experts who share their research, so you're always learning new things 2. Follow community organizers who can speak to what's happening on the ground 3. Follow people who post dog and cat videos (timeline cleanses are vital) 4. Block trolls 5. If you don't have anything nice to say...

I tried doing this but got stuck on the first question. What is the "best" pie? I love sweet potato, but adored my grandmother's Grasshopper pie. In summer, I love rhubarb pie right out of the oven, served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. All pie is the best pie. How am I supposed to choose?!?!

I live in Wisconsin, a 50-50 purple state, which has been so gerrymandered by the legislature that we only have 2 Democratic representatives in Congress, compared to 6 GOP. Anyone calling to abandon people in red states is really showing their hand. They're not allies.

After the 2024 election, I stepped away from the Democratic Party. I wanted to focus more on mutual aid and local politics, and I joined the Working Families Party instead. But if this asshole runs in 2028, I will absolutely canvass for whichever Dem has a shot at beating him in the primary.

The IRS wants Americans to weigh in on Direct File, the agency's free tax filing program. We already know Direct File has been widely popular and successful. The program could save Americans billions annually between filing fees and time costs. www.irs.gov/newsroom/irs...

One of the many things I love about the #Brewers, especially this season, is how much fun they're having. They work hard and take the game seriously, but they always seem to be enjoying the hell out of themselves. It's like watching a bunch of friends playing ball. It's such a special team.

"God rest your soul, Ueck. Love ya, buddy." Listening to the Uecker tribute on the radio and just falling to pieces here. So well done. #Brewers

I know we're all laughing at this, as we should. RFK Jr is awful. But I go to the gym multiple times a week, and the number of people (always men, always 55+ years old) who do full workouts in jeans is really something. This isn't specific to one guy, and I do not get it.

There have always been times like this. And there have always been people standing up and fighting back in times like this. There have always been people working towards a better world. If you don't see those people in your community, why not be the first?

This Brewers game has entered its fourth hour and 11th inning. It's one of those stressful-but-exciting games that makes me love baseball.

If you’re looking for something to do re: DC policing ridiculousness, these two groups have long-term relationships with ppl being further criminalized right now. Support their work!

A brick of Colby Jack cheese. I was going to say a bottle of beer, but there's not a single person in Wisconsin who would throw away beer like that.

Watched the "Naked Gun" reboot today. I grew up with the originals and love them, so I was apprehensive. But it's good. Is it as good as the originals? Of course not. But the gags were silly and plentiful. Also, Pamela Anderson steals the show. Her jazz club routine had me laughing so hard I cried.

It wasn't the most explosive moment, but halfway through "Parasite," when the fired housekeeper's face appears on the video monitor, the atmosphere in the entire theatre changed. And when she opened the secret door in the basement? Forget it.

17, unless we're counting airports. Then it's 19.

The closer we get to 2028, the more of this we're going to see: Democrats pulling a "both sides" on trans rights because they think it will appeal to moderates. It's pathetic. Meanwhile, Andy Beshear is unapologetically pro-trans and has 66% approval in a deep red state. This isn't difficult.

After a five-day halt due to a lack of supplies, our team at WCK’s Deir al-Balah Field Kitchen has resumed limited hot meal service in Gaza. #ChefsForGaza (1/3)

I have a rule: never like a politician. They have a job to do, and most of them fail at it. Yes, I'll vote for them, might even donate to them and knock on doors for them. But I do it knowing they will disappoint me. Tony Evers is the closest I've come to liking a politician. He's been good. 1/

Three years ago, I began listening to the Poirot novels on audiobook, on weekend drives to see my then-boyfriend. That relationship ended badly, but I kept listening. This morning, I finished "Curtain," the last Poirot novel. I'm going to miss that funny little Belgian man. #booksky

Attended a Lord Huron concert in Milwaukee tonight. One of the best concerts I've been to. If you ever have a chance to go, I highly recommend it. #musicsky

I clicked on this site, thinking I would find a station in Wisconsin that could use some support. At the very bottom of the page, they were promoting stations across the county that saw the largest funding cuts. One was in a part of Alaska I'd never heard of, so I got curious... 1/ #publicradio

This is one way that we can stand together and help public media survive during this tragic time. Adopt one or more of these stations. Spread the word to friends and family. adoptastation.org Adopt A Station

The fact that Harrison Ford got this nomination for a comedic role is everything. Ford has a very dry sense of humor, which people often mistake for disinterest. But watch any interview he's done in the UK (Graham Norton, Alison Hammond) and they get him instantly.

Ten writers of whom I've read five-plus books: Hanif Abdurraqib Robert Caro Agatha Christie Gabriel Garcia Marquez Toni Morrison Haruki Murakami Jose Saramago Kurt Vonnegut Sarah Vowell William Shakespeare #booksky

"We don't need libraries anymore because of ebooks" isn't based in reality. I teach middle school. Not only do our kids still check out print books from our LMC, we began taking them to the public library once a month because they wanted access to MORE print books. #booksky

We’re at $1,200 / $10,000 needed! Keep sharing because tomorrow morning, we’re getting her out of jail.

I'm in Winona, Minnesota, for the Great River Shakespeare Festival ("Romeo & Juliet" last night, "Comedy of Errors" tonight). Swung by a local ice cream place, and they have a flavor called Minnesota Pothole. How could I not get it?

I saw this post and thought NPR was being a little ridiculous. "Best live performance ever" and "one of the hardest Tiny Desks of all time" is promising a lot. Then I watched it. NPR wasn't kidding. #musicsky

Celebrated Prime Day by visiting an independent bookstore (Pearl Street Books in La Crosse, WI), getting a bowl of ice cream, and reading at a park next to the Mississippi River. How many Amazon orders placed today? None. #booksky

GoFundMe has set up a page for the Texan flood victims. Each campaign has been verified by the company's Trust & Safety experts, which means you know your money is going directly to families. Please consider donating if you can. Their stories are heartbreaking. www.gofundme.com/c/act/flood-...

Saw "Jurassic World: Rebirth" today. For the most part, it treads a lot of the same ground as previous sequels, including a very silly plot. However, it gets closer to the terror and dread of the first film than any of the other sequels. The raft scene alone is worth seeing in a theatre. #FilmSky

Yesterday, my congressman tweeted "YES!" to 17 million Americans losing their health care, and 18 million kids losing school meals. Today, he has spent at least 10 hours posting his way through the fallout. That's how he's spending his Independence Day.

I don't have much to add about today's vote in the Senate...but this point right here will keep me angry for the rest of my life. Murkowski had a choice: save Alaska, or save everyone (including Alaska). She chose to save only her state. Just utterly depraved.

They’re going to try to make you feel insane for opposing this war. They’ll ignore protests and downplay any opposition. They’ll try to strongarm you into submission. They did it with Iraq and they’ll do it again. And then a few years later they’ll pretend they were with you all along.

I am begging people not to look to the NYT for coverage of what's happening. The BBC, Le Monde, Ajazeera and others will have more truthful coverage.

What are some good orgs for trans youth that could use some donations on this awful day? Reply below.

Found myself in La Crosse with an hour to kill, so I'm reading Percival Everett by the Mississippi River. #BookSky

I loathe Tucker Carlson with every fiber of my being...but he does something here that is very effective. He makes Ted Cruz look dumb ("At all!?"), then won't let it go. Just keeps pressing the issue. Cruz's ego can't handle it, so he starts to ramble...and in doing so, really puts his foot in it.

When it looks like everything is burning, pick one place to dump water on. Don't try to put water on all of it. If you only have one cup, remember that others have cups too, and that can be a lot of water.

This nonprofit has stepped up to cover expenses of street vendors who have lost their income due to being undocumented. Anyone considering a donation today, I humbly suggest this link
