I made a short URL so I could get to the Milwaukee County Vehicle Crash Dashboard easily...

Naked bike ride is gonna get cheeky
The World Naked Bike Ride organizes in Milwaukee on Saturday.

Yesh! So, they move into the area, put the local pharmacies out of business, close their pharmacies, and then pay a ton of money to make sure that nobody can open a new pharmacy there. That doesn't sound great.
"Several Walgreens sites in Milwaukee — including closed stores — are under rental agreements that prohibit other pharmacies or certain other businesses from opening in those locations without the company’s permission."

Because of a river, railroad tracks, freeway, and cemetery, this might be the most direct path for me to bike to work.
Some of it is separated bike lane, some is multi-use path, some is residential streets, and some is terrible roads with speeding cars.

That's good to hear but I am not sure why that wasn't already the case.
"The Milwaukee Common Council approved legislation that modifies Milwaukee Police Department standard operating procedures governing officers' duty to intervene in and report unreasonable uses of force, including force used by federal agents."

I made a video showing all the obstructions I saw in the bike lane today...

I saw Brother Ali perform in Madison for his Satisfied Soul tour two years ago and absolutely loved it. When I saw that he is coming to #Milwaukee in November, you better believe I bought a ticket.

Some of the storm damage I saw biking to work today. This is in my neighborhood about five blocks from my house.

Personally, I want to see a 100% free to use bus system and a guaranteed funding stream from the county to cover their expenses. I would be happy to just see them able to reliably maintain bus services, though.
“While the progress we’ve realized is encouraging, we still face a serious structural funding challenge next year, as MCTS is one of the only major transit systems in the country without a dedicated source of funding,”

I know David Gruber is old but I hope he never dies because damn does he sponsor a lot of good things in Milwaukee...

I don't think that anybody actually likes WE Energies, and I'm hoping that this gets SE Wisconsin closer to where we need to be.

The Odd Rock Cafe (formerly “Cafe Voltaire”) in Milwaukee, where many bands played in the 1980s. Lots of memories from that place. It was eventually torn down. I use to live a few blocks away and later worked right down the street in Bay View.

The Downer is a great little theater and I love to see it.
"Milwaukee Film announced that it has received a $500,000 donation from the Richard and Ethel Herzfeld Foundation to support the $8 million Downer Theatre capital campaign. It’s the first major gift announced for the campaign."

I tried a new bike route to work today. I originally planned this due to some upcoming road closures but I really like it!
Minimal contact with cars and busy roads (except for the last 1.4 miles) and I get to use the new separated bike lane on Lisbon Avenue.

Summer in #Milwaukee is second to none but January and February is really brutal. I'm not looking forward to this weather ending.

Hopefully the North Shore gets more of these developments. I walk past that building often and it looks good.
"The goal is to create more opportunities for families to live where they choose. The Hampton has already proven a highly sought-after housing option. Spoerl said the project quickly received more than 350 applications."

If anyone is looking for an IT #job in #Milwaukee, my employer is apparently looking for a HRIS Analyst (a person to "liaise with UW Shared Services to resolve issues, escalate tickets, and identify trends requiring action" and manage workday access).

The bike lane is a great place to store these barrels when the speed limit is 35mph and cars tend to go 40 mph.
Last night I said "screw it" and used the sidewalk. I am against biking on the sidewalk (and it's illegal here) but if the provided (crappy) infrastructure isn't even available I'll do it.

If ICE is going to refuse to obey the law, the Milwaukee PD has to start arresting them.
“Four months after the package was introduced, a small group of ICE agents from Illinois arrived − many wearing masks − and arrested 39 people during the agency's nationwide push to increase detentions from late June to early July. A federal spokesperson said its agents would not follow Milwaukee's law, describing council members as "sanctuary politicians."“

That's cool. I wish #Milwaukee and/or #Madison were supported, though.

I had only been there a handful of times, but it will still be missed.
"Vagabond, the longtime taco destination at 1122 N. Edison Street will observe its final service on Saturday, July 18.
It was 2014 when Vagabond opened its doors in the former Rudy's Mexican Restaurant. "
