In Soviet Union, Morissey cancels *your* concerts! (That’s how these jokes work, right)

If I could change one thing about Milwaukee culture, it might be to instill a sense that it’s ok to walk a few blocks. Most of the time when people say there’s no parking, they mean there’s no parking directly at the door.

Bike Ride to the Powwow—please share 🙌🏻🚲

Pretty crazy how important the blockade of a trade route is right now

Currently under our second tornado warning in as many days. This is the confidence I need:

Other than the tornados, potholes, reckless drivers…I really like this place. Happy 414 Day, Milwaukee!

This is what Orioles Magic looks like.

I’ve been spelling “doofus” as “dufus” until today. Who’s the dufus now?

Western carmakers are retreating from EVs just as oil hits $100 a barrel. The parallels with Detroit in the 1980s are striking. They ignored fuel-efficient Japanese cars. Now they’re ignoring Chinese EVs. BYD just unveiled 600-mile range and 250 miles of charge in 5 minutes.

And look how “happiness” is visually presented: a busy pedestrianized street with trolleys. We know this is the way forward but are too cowardly or unimaginative to do it.

Glad to know I wasn’t alone in 2000-ish: “Kudrow added that she remembered thinking at the time, "This is the end of civilization," as she watched divisive personalities succeed on television, and TV execs continue to fund the shows that launched them to stardom.” ew.com/lisa-kudrow-...

Five years in Wisconsin and we finally got a snow day. These people are hard core.

Omg Matt Berry is brilliant, LoL!

Peak Milwaukee is this being the first painting the children see on their art museum field trip.

This one hits hard.

TIL that the British and Australians call these “hundreds of thousands.” They are wrong. They are called “jimmies” because I invented that term when I was 3.*

Another classic Friday afternoon drop. “We’ve been caught lying about shooting people - have a great weekend everybody!” www.npr.org/2026/02/13/n...

It’s kind of a bummer that it’s young and in shape people doing curling at the Olympics now. I miss the schlubby folks.

Cue the fireworks while I spin donuts in the parking lot to Van Halen’s “Panama” - it’s above freezing!

@tarkus1980.bsky.social please tell me you just saw that commercial featuring ELP’s Peter Gunn.

Still waiting for someone to skate to the music of Gyorgi Ligeti.

Amtrak Twitter going pretty aggro, should we be concerned?:

If my few years in Milwaukee have taught me anything, it’s that Groundhog Day is irrelevant. It’ll be Winter until Mother’s Day, period.

Not to get political, but America is very pretty and has a lot of nice folks making cool things, and I think if we had a president who wasn’t actively trying to murder us, we could have a pretty good time

Ah, cripes! #mst3k

RIP Trish Keenan (of Broadcast) who passed away 15 years ago today. #broadcast #trishkeenan youtu.be/31NMHu0kdRM?...

Seems like a good enough time to repost this:

Well, at least the Steelers are out. Already a better week than the last one.

Do I get off the couch one last time..?

Eww. futurism.com/future-socie...

“HAL, you got some ‘splainin’ to do!”

Appropriate bookends to what was a horrible week in general anyway. Neither team I root for can hold a 4th quarter lead and I take it personally.

The collapse of democracy ruined everything. Having to agree with fans of rival sports teams because we share the same core values and human decency sucks ass.

Picturing @kleindrivehomer.bsky.social losing his mind just seeing this:

@asteroidproject.bsky.social Happy New Year! (?)

If you put on the U2 song “New Year’s Day” right at 11:59:59 PM, you will hear the U2 song “New Year’s Day” right as New Year’s Day starts.
