@Evan_Flood Enough here we needed to at least half-ass it. Maybe quarter-ass it.

Are we shoveling/snowblowing this blizzard or just waiting for it to melt in 2-3 days?
English
@vintagemapstore SW corner of MI goes with Chicago, not Indy.

What 50 states might look like if they were redrawn today based on economic connections.

@midwestern_ope Lifelong Midwesterner here: do NOT wave people through at a 4 way unless it’s genuinely not clear who got there first. Otherwise just follow the correct order and stop making it needlessly confusing.
English
Midwest Red Flags:
1. Doesn’t put plate face down in trash with unfinished food
2. Don’t wave people through 4-way stops
3. Doesn’t “Ope, sorry”
4. Thinks that any trip over 10 hours is too far to drive

@SamKuffelWx The idea that the rest of WI isn’t Packers home market is nuts.
English
Only local markets airing the game are Milwaukee (Fox 6), Green Bay (NBC 26), and Chicago (Fox 32).
The rest of the state is SOL unless you buy Prime.
Meteorologist Sam Kuffel@SamKuffelWx
Packers Bears on Prime is a crime.
English
@JuMosq Insanely narrow definition of “market” on these games - needs to at least be statewide.
English
Out of market Packers fans are going to need a subscription service for the wild card round:

@RIPReggieK @mattschneidman Remember how he was our only touchdown tonight? Good hands and good instincts on a catch in open field but every wrong instinct possible for ST.
English
@dissolveriol @mattschneidman Great? He’s mid on his best day

Romeo Doubs: “I just didn’t do the job right. I’ll take 100% of this game.”

@mattlindner Perfect. Just need a few truck dealership sponsorships and a strip club or two.

The year is 2029. The Chicago Bears are playing at Uncle Sam’s Fireworks Store Stadium in Merrillville. It has a retractable roof sponsored by the Hell is Real billboard. The halftime show is presented by a rotating cast of personal injury law firms.
English
@SCweather_wx Honestly as a lake effect veteran this is refreshingly honest forecasting.

@tastiestofnoms THIS was the one Badger game I went to this year. Lmao
English
it’s not enough to fire luke fickell, we need to put him on the decommissioned Betty Lou cruise boat and set it afloat in Mendota until spring.

@feederofcats There is something so sweet about his face I can’t get over it
English
Poundcake is feeling great and having fun exploring the rescue 🥹 He found a good nap spot by the laundry but only if the blinds are shut because he is *terrified* of seeing moving vehicles, which is fair

@MKENewYorker The first time I was in Chicago (which functions similarly pedestrian-wise) with a friend from CA I spent a lot of time having to go oh no you can’t - no they don’t care they are going to run you over

Day 2 of keeping a list of all things my cousin and her husband, who live in San Francisco, have said about Milwaukee while they’re here for the weekend

Keeping a list of all things my cousin and her husband, who live in San Francisco, have said about Milwaukee while they’re here for the weekend. This is what I have so far as of 7:30 this morning

English
to be loved is to be changed ❤️

@tastiestofnoms “Ugh why am I coughing so much” “Because fire air now.”
English
@tastiestofnoms In my household we’ve been calling it “fire air now” (because one of the websites is fire.airnow.gov). You know, normal thing to have a fun nickname for.
English
our air quality is still as terrible as it’s been recently but they just stopped issuing alerts for it, this seems ominous.
English
There are happy tears in my eyes as I type this... WALTER has been ADOPTED! 😭🩷
Walter is a 14 y/o cat who was found near death back in February. He fought hard and had an amazing turnaround. And now, he finally gets his happily ever after 🥹
Congrats, Walter! We love you! 🩷

@gaulicsmith Tavern League has set alcohol laws to encourage it.
English
Can someone explain why Wisconsin drinks so much and why it stops exactly at the border ? I find that really strange tbh

@feederofcats I couldn’t believe no one had snapped him up yet! Yayyyy
English
I am so, so excited to share that LUKE was ADOPTED last weekend! 😭🩷
For almost a year, Luke waited desperately for someone to want him. He longed for his own home, his own people, his own things. He just wanted to be loved.
You finally got it, buddy. Happy Tails, Luke 🥹

@ellenlynch @james_f_thomas I mean as a hot sleeper: not necessarily? I completely get the temptation to try this but also reading basically any reviews is enough to be like nope.
English
after I stopped laughing, I got curious about how a bed-cooling system would work, so I started researching and I learned:
1) it's basically a glorified waterbed
2) the EightSleep subreddit is an addictive read. you cannot even begin to imagine all the ways this bed malfunctions
Theo - t3.gg@theo
Woke up because my AI controlled bed is too cold. Went to adjust temperature and I can’t because the Eight Sleep app is currently broken. Can’t adjust by hand because I have a Pod3, not the upgraded Pod4 with physical controls. Now I am stuck in a cold bed. This feels dystopian.
