better never hear anyone say the word Milwaukee without putting some RESPECT on our name

Milwaukee raised. Watched Hank Aaron homer. Ate a hotdog on my birthday in the County Stadium Press Box watching Bob Uecker add color to the game. Lived in many cities. But you don’t forget your first. Win it all, Brewers!

“Now Show the North Side” (Part II)

Believe 💛💙

our children & grandchildren will look back at this era with surprise and shame that previous generations chose this cretin over extremely well qualified women not once but TWICE as with racism and other issues in this country, we continue to underestimate the extent and toll of American misogyny

Who’s ready for No Kings? We’re getting an early start on making signs! ✊💚

Where am I, Milwaukee?

Milwaukee’s North Point Water Tower started operating 152 years ago, in the fall of 1874. It houses a standpipe that served as part of an innovative system that brought 16 million gallons of clean water every day from Lake Michigan to 100,000s of homes over the next century.

The pipe organ at Carma Labs is viscerally thrilling. It really is. Theater tours are usually great, this year the Pabst, Miller, and Next Act are open for tours. Pink Umbrella too, I'll have to check it out. And hotels - Pfister is amazing as is Hilton Garden with its crazy old safes

What do folks think?? I’ll share mine too but curious about others’ thoughts as well
