How-To Wisconsin: How to order an Old Fashioned
Doing that annoying internet thing where we explain how to do something fairly simple, but precede it with a needlessly long personal story.

Of course it was Bob Donovan attacking Milwaukee's ability to govern Milwaukee
"An effort to limit the Milwaukee Common Council’s ability to shape police and fire department policy passed an Assembly vote Thursday, in the form of an amendment to a completely unrelated bill. If the measure becomes law, the council would need a unanimous vote before suspending or modifying police or fire department policy. "

The Minocqua Brewing Company is famously anti-Trump, and very progressive, but when I told them to dump Substack because they platform and support Nazis they told me to "get over it" because all other platforms have "bent the knee".
Sigh...
I did reply telling them about Ghost and about self-hosting as an option.

What they are doing is illegal in Wisconsin, so it makes sense.
“Kaul plans to file three separate lawsuits in Dane County Circuit Court against prediction market companies, alleging they are bypassing state laws by characterizing sports bets as "event contracts."”

Kelda Roys is not my first choice for Governor of Wisconsin but at least she's a cyclist. (And ebike rider!)
I'm really hoping Wisconsin doesn't take the route of New Jersey with regards to ebike regulations.
We have some good bike advocacy here though (and Trek) so hopefully we're safe.

Things could be worse.
"The state Public Service Commission approved We Energies’ special energy rate for large data centers on April 24, but not without making a series of changes to strengthen protections for existing ratepayers. The novel proposal intends to hold data centers responsible for their immense energy needs and prevent those costs from raising residential electric bills."

Electric buses are passing a brutal cold-weather test in Wisconsin
Madison is proving electric buses can run through cold winters, providing a blueprint for zero-emissions transit in other frigid locales.

I used to live in Waukesha County and like others I never imagined it could turn blue but… there’s a chance.

A Certain Shade of Purple: Can these Democrats win local races in Waukesha County?
In Waukesha County's two largest cities, unabashed Democrats Mike Hallquist and Alicia Halvensleben are each running for mayor. A special feature story on the purpling of the former GOP stronghold.

Hey #GreenBay, take note #Wisconsin #AnimalRescue #HomelessSupport

When you are running Governor and have the endorsement of the Milwaukee and Madison DSA and also the local punk venue is doing a benefit show for you...

The grift never fucking ends.
"Republican leaders will pay private lawyers up to $550 an hour in taxpayer money to represent the Legislature in a lawsuit challenging them over that very practice: using taxpayer money to hire private attorneys."

Good.
"Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul on Friday joined a coalition of 22 other states and the District of Columbia in a lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump's recent attempt to exert federal control over mail-in ballots and voter rolls.
"An executive order isn’t a royal decree," Kaul said in a statement. "The President can’t unilaterally dictate how states should run elections.""
