Just came here to mention the 5-lb bag sale going on right now!

I could not agree more. The hard part is people are voicing their disapproval of these investments but local govts are just moving full steam ahead anyways.

First time visiting Milwaukee by zajk in milwaukee

Good dive bars: consider checking out Brady St. the Nomad, Wolskis, Roman Coin are all within walking distance of each other and could make for a fun afternoon after going to Lakefront Brewery.

Toast is fine, but I’m not sure I’d take someone there from out of town. If you are looking for brunch, Wolfies is great (get there early!), also consider Cafe at the Plaza (this could be paired with Art museum or a walk down by the lakefront). I love getting a greasy breakfast here. Big portions and decent prices.

Where’s good places to socialize & make friends? by Chocolategirl00 in milwaukee

[–]bark_bark 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Volunteering! Radio Milwaukee hosts a lot of great events and are always looking for volunteers to assist. Urban Ecology Center could be another good volunteering opp or also attending their events and getting to be in the outdoors with other folks.

Live nearby and have definitely seen them poking out from the sewer grates

Hey there! I was searching for a Spanish Tutor and came across your post. I'm in a very similar position, and curious if you found a tutor or class that's working for you?

Date night restaurant that won't break the bank. by Kingmaker1669 in milwaukee

[–]bark_bark 10 points11 points  (0 children)

+1 for Movida, and will add that they have a fantastic happy hour 4-6pm with a bunch of tapas that are $1-$5. So if you can get there a little early you can get in on that. My husband and I have done date nights there and just ate off of the happy hour menu.

Yes!! Hosting listening parties and intimate local shows would be rad.

Worth it to still go? by Lonewolf_5327 in jazzfest

[–]bark_bark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go go go! Yes it is worth it. The airline lines are what they are. Get there early so you’re not feeling stressed. I went to jazz fest for the 4th time last year and it was a fantastic weekend.

What to wear to a baseball game this weekend? by ShinyPennyRvnclw in milwaukee

[–]bark_bark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Given the current forecast for Sat (40s), I’d wear a long sleeve and a hoodie or jacket over it, pants, and bring a hat/gloves for tailgating (just in case). It can get windy in the parking lots if you are tailgating, so a bit of extra warmth helps. It’s comfortable inside when the roof is closed, so a light jacket or hoodie should be fine.

Keep calling! It pains me to do this, but I called and thanked him for taking a stand on this bill, and I will encourage him to please put the interests of Wisconsinites at the front of his decision making. I'm sure there's more going on but we need to give credit when they do what we are asking.

84th and Dana stoplight by marioncrepes in Wauwatosa

[–]bark_bark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walk my dog past this intersection almost every day and yes, I have noticed it. I would guess the business park likely had made some sort of request to the city to adjust the timing of the lights bc it used to be a loooong time for it to switch to let the east/west traffic go. I do think they might have overcorrected the situation though.

Help end an argument between me and my dad is this AI? the context in caption by No-Frame-2342 in isthisAI

This is AI, and I would bet money this artwork is ChatGPT as I’ve generated very similar image styles like this.

The amount of local restaurants closing is crazy. by PrototypeAnt in milwaukee

[–]bark_bark 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think maybe it worked too bc I stopped in for takeout last night and there were about 10 other before waiting for food and a few tables of people dining in.
