@trentmcnitt The big difference between Mastodon and Threads or Twitter is that Mastodon doesn't have an algorithm. It means you need to follow a lot more people (I follow hundreds), and you are expected to boost content you find interesting.
@rasterweb once had a list of Milwaukee-based Fedizens. You can also follow #Milwaukee to find some local stuff.
Figure out people with similar interests and start going through who they follow. You should be able to find interesting folks here.
@shadownetworks If you live in a city with functional public transportation, it isn't. Anyways, with the $1.7 billion investment that #Milwaukee is making into 3.5 miles of i94, I would expect at least a 5% return, right?
LisaSo excited! I rarely win anything, but this year I won 2 passes to the 2026 Milwaukee Film Festival which starts later this week!

AndreaARI have a (bad?) habit of wandering cities by myself at night on business trips. Say hello to the ladybugs in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Taken Oct 18, 2022.

Back in the pre-pandemic days Comet Cafe used to have a vegan gyro that was dry and not very good. It’s part of why I stopped going there for a while. They’ve leveled up under their newer owners - had their vegan shawarma that’s made with mushrooms today and it was delicious!

Ashley HalliwellEmerson and I went to see a reading of a play at County Clare Irish Pub tonight.
It was simultaneously very funny but also very emotionally heavy, and I took a much needed smoke break towards the end of it. Two girls were discussing their guy drama and I told them to just be bold and also trust their gut because we live in a hellscape. I told them that that’s how I met Emerson and we’re married now 💛 They said that they appreciated my wisdom, so there’s that, I guess. I also met a very inquisitive and affectionate dog named Keaton. Both his owner and I think he might be a boxer mix of some kind, but he’s also very small, so he might have been the runt of his litter. He was a very precious baby who reminded me of my childhood dog, a purebred Lab named Eli, who was constantly excited about everything and was very handsome. Everyone loved that lad even though he was extremely small for his breed.
I also figured out that a friend of Emerson’s and mine works at County Clare. I almost didn’t recognize her outside of the events I normally see her at, but it’s a small world, I suppose, and I was grateful to run into her. She’s lovely.
It started raining on the way back to the car, and I think my body is deeply unhappy with all the storms we’re having. I feel like I got hit by a train.
I think I’m going to go to sleep soon. I definitely need it. I managed to finally go to sleep around 5 AM today. I feel like I was hit by a train.
Juneau is in one of his states again – I think he might be splitting on me or starting to. He’ll probably come around in about 2 business days with an apology or something to that effect, and we’ll kiss and make up, as it were. I think it would be in poor taste to inform him that he might be splitting on me, he’s an adult and he’ll come to that conclusion on his own. In the meantime, there’s nothing to do but live life, dispense advice to strangers on the sidewalk like I’m some faerie that haunts the shadows, see really heavy plays, and scritch adorable dogs.

Nefarious AryqMilwaukee: “We’re going to do another 60 traffic calming projects across the city this year to support our Vision Zero program.”
Indianapolis: “We’re supposed to do projects? Isn’t that what Tactical Urbanism is for? Make the people do it themselves!”
