psssst if you're in the Wisconsin area you can see my movie, No Packers, No Life... starting TODAY! www.marcustheatres.com/movies/no-pa...

I love the current weather pattern and all, but having been scarred by the October 1997 blizzard I get nervous when I see such full tree canopies this time of year. #LNK

I understand Bob Dylan's cultural importance, but good golly he sang like an intoxicated Swedish Chef on karaoke night.

This document is a good read for anybody who cares about high-level #soccer in the U.S. www.ussoccer.com/collegesoccer

This might just be the most popular thing I’ve *ever* posted on Opus. Apparently, people really are sick and tired of #AI getting shoved in their faces by companies like Google.

Seven years ago today in #LNK.

Market To Market is an amazing event. Nebraska is blessed to have it. Kudos to Pink Gorilla for putting together such a wonderful opportunity for runners to spend an entire day together. #LNK

I'm looking for a Market to Market runner to join our team. We lost a runner to a knee injury. Our gun time is 7am. If you know what M2M is and you've wanted to give it a try, this may be your chance! Message me. #LNK

Several people have asked me if I will attend any World Cup matches next year. No. No, I will not.

I want a pop-up camper. I don't have a vehicle that can tow a pop-up camper. I shouldn't trade in my perfectly good vehicle -- which I really like! -- just to get a vehicle that can tow a pop-up camper. But I really want a pop-up camper.

I feel like I've seen more monarch butterflies this year than in recent years. Not a lot, just more. Have you noticed the same thing? #LNK

Can you or somebody you know use this snowblower? It's a Craftsman Model 247.889701. The previous homeowners left it. Somebody with know-how can get it running. Make me a Please Just Get It Out Of My Garage Rate offer. I accept payment in food. #LNK

Can you or somebody you know use this bike? It's a 24" Mooncool. Make me a Family And Friends Rate offer. I accept payment in food. #LNK

Don't tell Gov. Pillen, but it appears that The Gays have taken over Lincoln High and their influence is quickly spreading toward the Capitol. #LNK

I have a new running goal. #LNK

"War isn’t Hell. War is war, and Hell is Hell. And of the two, war is a lot worse. ...There are no innocent bystanders in Hell, but war is chock full of them – little kids, cripples, old ladies. In fact, except for a few of the brass, almost everybody involved is an innocent bystander."

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality. I don't know how to yell any louder.

Good morning, #LNK.

I used to think that lawyers were, by necessity and through training, effective communicators. Some--maybe most--of them are! But good lord, many are awful. They can't identify relevant questions. They can't answer simple questions simply. They can't put ideas in order. It's maddening.

My kingdom for a Garmin watch with a charging port that doesn't suck.

The city is under attack by giant mutant hornets and NOBODY IS TALKING ABOUT IT. #LNK

There needs to be an Old Man Mode for text containing emojis. Half the time I can't see the darn things or tell what they're supposed to be. Which of the 42,000 subtly different faces is that? Is this a toilet or a cup of coffee?

Websites that require MFA for access to dashboards that only allow for paying bills make me chuckle. They should be Z[ero]FA. You want to pay my bill for me? Be my guest!

From the "things you absolutely should not find darkly humorous" files:

One pretty foolproof way to know your government is fascist is when your government tries to punish you for calling it fascist.

I cancelled my Washington Post subscription just now in direct response to this and related issues. I encourage you to do the same.

My capsaicin runneth over.

On one hand this article is distressing. On the other hand it's hilarious that the New York Times used the phrase "runner's trots". www.nytimes.com/2025/08/19/h...

You know, under previous administrations the AOL email address would be an obvious giveaway that this is a scam. But under this administration it seems entirely plausible.

It's my birthday. You didn't get me a gift. It's not too late! I have the PERFECT gift idea: join me Oct 20 for Foster Care Closet's Tailored For Tomorrow Gala. It would make me so happy to see you there. Buy tickets (& my birthday present) here: fostercarecloset.networkforgood.com/events/89540...

I wrote a little something inspired by the wonderful Daisy May, our first kid. The Walk: hellomrwilson.com/p/the-walk

Thanks to SCOTUS's ruling today, I live in a country where latinos are presumed to not be Americans and must prove otherwise. So that's fun.

Happy caramel.

Now that they're cooled and sliced, I sampled each. They're pretty decent! Moist, good flavor. The PB version generated some raised eyebrows from folks. I can't say it blew me away, but it's a good flavor combo. To make it I used my homemade PB (100% ground peanuts, nothing else). 1/x

I took my first stab at banana bread this afternoon. One plain; one with walnuts; and one with peanut butter. I look forward to judging them after they've cooled. I wanted to try carrot cream cheese muffins, too, but I discovered I'm missing a couple spices.

It's time for #afterDarkSky. Show me your naughty produce.

What is going on in this ad? Is the liquid going into the container or being squeezed out and immediately redirected by an extreme crosswind? Did nobody on the design team see this and say "Hey, maybe we *shouldn't* rotate the pouring photo 90 degrees"?

Ignite Lincoln is February 17 and they are currently looking for speakers. The theme is: "Belonging: Finding Connection in a Lonely World." Do you know somebody who would be a good speaker on that theme? Let them know! #LNK

A #LNK runner died after being hit by a driver on Sunday morning near South 27th & Rokeby Road. One thing stands out to me: the southbound runner was struck from behind by a southbound vehicle. That means the runner was on the wrong side of the road. Be smart and safe, runners. Run against traffic.

I'm not saying that the onion gravy I made tonight was so delicious I ate the remainder directly from the pan with a large serving spoon rather than saving it in the fridge, but I'm not not saying it, either.

I didn't even know it was possible to score negative points.

As of today I'm down to one teenager. This is getting serious.

Do any of the streaming services allow you to watch a random episode of a series? Sometimes a guy wants to wash M*A*S*H but he doesn't want to start at the beginning and he doesn't want to have to choose an episode, y'know?

It was a near-perfect morning to run this morning: low-60s, intermittent light rain. The parade of runners on Rock Island Trail agreed with me. #LNK

Some people are in a massive rush to get a problem addressed, right up until you give them the knowledge, tools, and permission to address the problem themselves.

The Cornhusker Marching Band's annual exhibition is tomorrow (Friday) evening at 7pm at the stadium. It's free. Every year, 10,000+ people go out on a Friday night to watch exhausted band geeks show what they've worked on in a week of band camp, and that's just lovely. #LNK

It's been about 8.5 months, I suppose I could post again. I am still looking for a position as a senior developer. Located in Omaha, NE but looking for strictly remote. My most recent professional experience is .NET backend and Windows desktop applications, but I can learn whatever I need to.

There was yet another bad accident on Old Cheney Rd. at Rolling Hills Blvd. this morning. Three fire trucks, (at least) three ambulances, one vehicle upside down. It will be unpopular, but the City may need to shut off left turns out of the neighborhood. #LNK (@feitcanwrite.bsky.social, your take?)

Oh good, biting flies have shown up in #LNK the past few days. Because we weren't already having enough fun outdoors with the mosquitos, heat, and humidity.
