Not sure how I missed the wasabi fairy. 🤩

Also, if you have an absentee ballot and you are worried it won’t get counted because it wasn’t stamped in time, you can usually drop it off in person. In Madison that is at your polling location but other jurisdictions can be different (Milwaukee has central counting for example).

HOT TIP for Wisconsin voters! You can register to vote the day of. Your local poll worker (including me) will be happy to help you.

One of my favorite books of all time. 😍

Completely true conversation I had tonight with my kid:
Me: (excited voice) do you want to read about SMALLPOX?!?
Kid: YES!

😂

We proceed to read Amy Cherrix’s excellent book for kids “Virus Hunters”. (I have also read D.A. Henderson’s excellent book)

Same, my car insurance per year is $486 so $2,000 seems 🍌🍌🍌. I could buy my teen an ebike for that!!!

The other day I mentioned to someone that adding a teen to car insurance would be $2000/year and she said “that seems reasonable”. 🫠 We have normalized these costs SO much.

In 2005 I lived in Brookline in a building that had about 20 steps up to the first floor, when there was a massive snowstorm. Jumping off the top step into a HUGE snowdrift was super fun!! I was not a child 😂

I hate it too, for two reasons: 1–I listen to podcasts while doing other things! Walking, washing dishes, ripping out invasive plants in my garden. 😂 2–Video puts pressure on women hosts (more so than men) to dress a certain way, do their hair/makeup, which all takes time that they may not have.

To be honest, I didn’t even bike below 20°F until my 3rd or 4th winter here.

It’s 16°F. My middle schooler just said “I think I will bike today”. I told them it is really cold and they said “it’s fine”. So proud! 😂

It was SO fun to watch. I loved the Spanish couple with the soccer jerseys! And the Kazak guy with the panda suit!!

Yes! It’s free! You could make someone’s day!

I had the same question!

Stay safe!

What a game!!!!!

Here we go!!!!

YUP

bluesky, the north american yelling about hockey app

This is intense!!! 🏒🏒🏒

TIL! Never seen these before and I was a kid in the 80s. But I grew up in CA, so…

I’ve tried to get my teen to try the box but they are scared. Will only ride the Tern. 😊

Goo gone?

My child has told me I am not allowed to sell this bike, so expect many more milestones! 😂

Beautiful!!! 🤩

Thank you! This is our 4th cargo bike (sold off the other 3) but I bet if we added all the miles together it would be a trip around the world! The Yuba Mundo (from 2015) had about 8k, Tern GSD (2019) about 12k and the Babboe Big (2017) maybe 1k? We still have an HSD with about 4500 miles on it.

Truth!

it’s almost like Wisconsin needs a statewide housing strategy…
