Theater fans, politics fans, people of conscience If you are in the Twin Cities, please follow this #noKings day with a visit to Theatre in the Round to see their production of “Conscience” Timely, poignant reminder that history repeats, outcomes DO change. #localTheater #conscience #theater

Theatre beer selection was decidedly the #antiStouturday, but hey, when in Rome ya drink what is available Funny thing is the last time I had a #grainBelt Premium Lager was ALSO Theatre in the Round, Minneapolis, almost exactly a year ago. #beer #theater #drinkLocal #bSkyBeer #conscience

I imagine the best part of work from home is that I’ve spent the whole week in a ratty pair of 10 year old jeans with one kneee blown out and a back pocket shredded from too many phone retrievals and no one cares… #wfh #fashionSense #workFromHome

JD Vance - fraud in “the Somali parts of Minnesota” WTAF? Who are these idiots?

One other Post Office observation UPS shipped my son’s new M5 MacBook Air from Vietnam to MN in *4* days with stops in China, Alaska, and Kentucky USPS takes *7* days to get a bill pay paper check from MN to OH Need to move all that action to payments pulled from the card companies any…dumb CU

Post Office people, can you help me out? Having lots of issues with a forwarding order. When a piece of mail is returned “Unable to forward” does the _sending_ Post Office get any indication of WHY it could not be delivered from the _receiving_ post office? #postOffice #mailForwarding

Hey @mylittlebloggie.bsky.social if you hadn’t seen it - mastodon.social/@rubenbollin... Direct link - boingboing.net/2026/03/09/m...

Looked away from the @wiglenet.bsky.social stats for a minute and the total files parsed count jumped from 7,999,909 to 8,000,156! That’s a LOT of files. I appear to have contributed some 20,000 of them since 2004. #allTheWifi #alwaysBeWardriving #wardrive #warWalk #warBoat #warBike #warFly

A new to me dry Irish stout! #padraigsBrewing Dullahan’s nitro #stout Fits the classic mold, roasty malts, coffee, a hint of hops and chocolate. I messed up the pour - the next can will go harder to stir up the nitro! #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #beer #bSkyBeer

The last of the #surlyBrewing tasters was the Smoked Porter. No picture, not really worth one. Hardly any smoke, even after fully warmed. Meh Porter flavor, just disappointing. There was some discussion of the nose resembling hot dog water…not the comparison you really want. #craftBeer #bSkyBeer

That second #surlyBrewing glass? The Dopplebock! Light and refreshing with a nice caramel body. First time I have had this one, there will be a second. #craftBeer #bSkyBeer

Another birthday to celebrate, and a free beer at #surlyBrewing! Coffee Bender Brown Ale - Big coffee on this brown, a pleasant malt and bitter finish Paired with some simply AMaZInG food, the molé pork bowl and Darkness cake for dessert made for a lovely evening. #craftBeer #celebrate #bSkyBeer

Noticed a few interesting @wiglenet.bsky.social stats: - just crossed the 5 Billion unique Bluetooth device count. I know that number is a bit sus, but yowza! - closing fast on 8 million files parsed. That’s #allTheWifi but more keeps showing up #wardrive #alwaysBeWarDriving #wigleWifi

Kids found this #uneAnnée Airing of Grievances Belgian inspired imperial #stout Curious combo! Starts like a Belgian quad, big hoppy notes with dark fruitiness and a lasting tangy finish. Hints of chocolate stouty malts. #itsAlwaysStoutSeason #craftBeer #bSkyBeer
