My wife is very supportive of my #homebrew hobby.

Soon

Listening to the preview of the new AFI album and it's goth! This makes it the second album they made specifically for Halloween.

Come on Packers, lets look better than last week! (I know, low bar)

Hey everyone, that was a tough week. Who wants ice cream? My treat!

Words cannot describe how excited I am for this. Manic made a Polish tangerine mead they aged in Malört barrels

My mom took Tylenol while pregnant. Now I can rattle off commercial yeast statistics for mead, or recall vital numbers of most 120 recognized beer categories.

It's everyone's favorite season! Skeleton-toys-designed-by-people-who-failed-biology season!

Getting tongued by a latina baddie, torta de lengua Same thing

Sometimes it's nice to remember that even Marcus Aurelius was like "you don't have to comment on everything bro"

Trump did it! He got the Fed to lower interest rates, forcing Powell to cave to pressure! All it took was crashing the economy and having the Fed Board of Governors worry about an incoming recession from the multiple bad economic reports in a row and frightening downward revisions. Art of the deal

Amidst the chaos I needed a beer. 3 craft beers. Three 3 Sheeps beers they brewed for Piggly Wiggly. Check the review where I go over their German Pilsner, Amber Lager, and Midwest IPA (This is what self promo is like in this day and age.)

My 7 year old just asked me why black people and white people were enemies way back when. I was not ready for a 2nd grade level lesson on slavery, Jim Crow and CRT at 8:30 am.

Giving a cyber security talk today. Here are my presentation notes: * "Who here likes pie?" * Show and tell * Make fun of Starbucks wifi * IRA quote (yes, *THAT* IRA) * Open the floor for questions

Tried my hand at making my own Dr. Pepper. It's close, but the spice levels are off. Probably because I had a few whole spices and the recipe called for ground or didn't specify.

In the past day Israel bombed Qatar (US ally) and Russia sent drones into Poland (NATO member). Trump, the deal maker, feels "very badly" and doesn't seem to be preventing these wars. Must be too busy playing tough guy over Chicago and Portland.

Wife: did you finish all the brownies in 2 days? Me: you said you were having problems with control and falling off your diet, so I selflessly removed the temptation. W: 😡😡😡

You know what's great? When a Kickstarter arrives! Thanks @outridercreative.bsky.social and @scenefour.bsky.social

If you want to find the most oblivious and humorless people in the world, just check the comments of a pretty good joke.

I found an IPA @pennylescroche.transtapir.games would like

One of my recession indicators is the weekly grocery store sale ad. Fewer pages, bigger pictures, and smaller discounts. Buckle up, it's going to get nasty.

My conspiracy theory: Some of these data breaches are done, or at least funded by, credit monitoring services. I have at least 4 years of credit monitoring for the next year and a half because of all the breaches my data was caught in. But I can't stack them so they renew as the last one ends.

Baseball is the most unserious sport. Brewers are having a dog at the park night, so obviously the away team has cat pictures on the scoreboard. The radio announcers spent the whole first inning trying to determine what the cat breeds were

About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”

Backstage of the Trump proof of life press push

I'm really torn between a labor day post (your favorite craft brewery worker is barely paid a living wage even if they have a college degree in beer) and a spooky season one (modern witch iconography is based on Jewish stereotypes, not alewives). So I'll just sit in this limbo of both.

When it happens I'm not celebrateing. He's a figurehead of hate, but the people who elevated him are still here. The structures that buckled under his assault aren't repaired. The enablers are still in power. I'll take the change and hope it's for the better, but it's not over with just him.

Me: I had a lot on Wednesday, I should mellow out one more day for health. Wife: I had a rough week, you should open a bottle of #wine. Me: Red or pink? Dry or sweet? Or maybe a #mead? We could always open a second if the first wasn't exactly what you wanted. 2022 #homebrew Nebiolo hit the spot

Looks like I'm making tomato wine this year

#homebrew lager night with 6 Czech Lagers, same #beer recipe, all with a different ferment style. Null condition, cold fermented with Omega OLY-101 for like 3 months S-23 regular later Fast ferment with OLY-101 Pressure fermented OLY-101 at room temp white Java Nova Lager Lutra #kveik

As the co-creator and executive producer of Corn Telethon, I concur with my fabulous pal @caseycalvert.bsky.social.

Do you know how hard it is to explain attraction to a woman? I mean, women are so amazing that other women are forgoing men just to be with them! I thank God every day that my wife's standards are so low she chose to be with a man.

102.1 and 93.3 have sold to the Christian radio group K-Love (who already owns 105.something). We have bets on what will happen to 102.1, and my money is still on Reliant-K, Skillet, and all those other not obvious Christian bands. Another reason it's important to donate to 88.9 Radio Milwaukee

Yes, the stakes here are large. Very large.

Americans will use anything but the metric system (I actually really like the joke because it's a celebration of fall coming)

I know more TTRPG nerds than Alex, so I'm boosting this cause he's looking for RPG sponsors for the 2nd annual 'Corn Telethon' Honestly, I'd pay money to see an AP of adult stars playing @magpiegames.bsky.social Pasión de Las Pasiones

I like that my kid is in karate. I like they're teaching lessons of respect, responsibility and discipline leading to confidence. But what I don't like with respect is the mandate of "yes, sir!" I'm not that kind of dad, especially when we're grocery shopping and others hear you yelling it 🙈🙈🙈

A TikTok I made a month ago making fun of math majors is getting a lot of engagement the past few days. Better check what bad breaking news just dropped.

Do you know how I know cryptocurrency isn't legitimate? I can't think of a single movie where the MacGuffin is a thumb drive with Bitcoin wallet credentials, unlike the hundreds of '80s movies where they're trying to steal bearer bonds.

Further Unhinged TTRPG takes: The guy who yells "Capitalism is the bad guy" the loudest is a whole lotta talk and not a lotta walk when it comes to his MULTIPLE actual play shows. If Brennan wanted he could change a indie designer's livelihood and instead continues choosing a billion dollar company

Robots are stealing the jobs of the street construction stop/slow sign holders!

Hey folks! @forwhygames.bsky.social is launching a Roll-and-Write about a pyromancer cult that kidnaps your marshmallow family and you have to arm yourself with squirt guns, water balloons, and fight back. Check it out and share if you like! www.kickstarter.com/projects/mar...

Gave a friend Balmer Peak Distillery Bäsk Nomört and it's safe to say he wasn't a fan. Even said it's worse than Malört.

In theory, if a radioactive shrimp bit me, what super powers are we talking about? I'm already a bottom feeder, so check that off the list

Post that video...ok youtu.be/2y9UcPW9ZxQ?... Here to help with game immersion!

biggest tip for making #homebrew #beer : whisk > mash paddle breaks up dough clumps, knocks down boil overs, open the bottom of cans for quick evacuation of the liquid

Me: I don't know, having a mock lager turn around in less than a week? Not sure that's doable. Lutra: HOLD MY WORT! love my Brew Father and Tilt Hydrometer pairing because it finished in TWO DAYS!

Bare minimum for holding a conversation: IPAs were not invited to survive the trip to India, favorite N American hop (not Citra, Cascade, Mosaic or Amarillo), global warming hurting the noble hop crops, women invented beer, beer is for everyone, beer is global (and potentially older than mead)
