Welcome to our weekly odds and ends post!

If you are looking for events, please check out our exhaustive Events Calendar!

Every parent level comment should begin with one of the following categories:

[For Sale] concert tickets, beauty and grooming services, Ikea bookcases

[For Free] dental checkups and couches that you can totally have for free but you have to move them yourself

[Want to Buy] * Rave tickets, a used toaster, a cute puppy*

[Job Request] You're new to the city and are looking for work in IT or you hate your job and need some leads. Be sure to include your skills and qualifications. A lot of people on this sub love to help others but they can't do that if they don't know your background and interests.

[Job Announcement] You're looking for new team members for a fantastic job that ISN'T a scammy ca$h4work gig or MLM

[Living Arrangements] You need a roommate, an apartment, or are offering a living arrangement. Be sure to clarify your tidiness expectations because you never know what you're going to get when accepting a roommate and I'm NOT GOING TO DO YOUR DAMN DISHES ANYMORE REBECCA

[Personals] You're lonely, new to the city, want to play extreme Frisbee, or need someone to eat Ian's Pizza with because no one wants to do that alone. We understand.

[Event] An advertisement for your amazing upcoming event - like a urban foraging excursion or band performance that is totally going to blow the roof off

I’m sure there will be some organizing by other leaders in the community, but we need to put something together for Madison and for the injustice that occurred to that man. They haven’t released his name, and there are more links if you wish to see what occurred. In the Wisconsin Reddit thread.

Lele the Lyft Driver

677 Upvotes

If Lele, a Lyft driver is in this subreddit, or if anyone knows her, please share this with her.

Yesterday, Tuesday July 21st, you picked up my son, R, at around 12:15pm. To take him to the animal hospital. With our sweet cat, Shmoopy, who was hours from death. It didn’t occur to me to request a pet ride. I was crying so hard I could barely see.

And I want to thank you for not canceling. I know you had every right to cancel. Especially since you are allergic to cats.

We went to bed Monday night knowing Shmoopy wasn’t going to live to see 2027. But that she wouldn’t live past 1pm yesterday? It wasn’t on our mind. And when we woke up Tuesday? She wasn’t great. But then she began having seizures. And we knew we couldn’t wait for the vet appointment.

I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. And my sons. You got them there safely. And Shmoopy was finally free of pain. And it sucks. This is the worst part of having pets. And you helped make the worst day of this year just a tiny bit easier. So thank you so much.

therapist recommendations for attorneys?

• Upvotes

Hello,

i am a very stressed out lawyer looking for a therapist who either was an attorney or has experience working with attorneys. My current therapist is lovely but it can be difficult to explain how peculiarly soul crushing this profession can be to someone who isn't that familiar with it. Also open to recs for therapists who work with people in other high-stress, high-pressure careers.

Thanks.

Resources for learning more about segregation in MKE

23 Upvotes

Milwaukee is frequently listed as one of the U.S.’s most segregated cities, but I know very little about the specific history behind why that is. Does anyone know any good books, videos, podcast, etc for learning more about this side of Milwaukee’s history?

I have some questions about RW24.

* Do I have to be a rider to do the activities/check points? If not, where can I find a list/location of them?

* Is there a map or best streets to walk around just to experience the event?

Thanks!

Update on Milwaukee Pro Soccer?

25 Upvotes

After the World Cup I want to do a better job supporting local soccer in the country. I noticed we had a USL Championship expansion team announced a few years ago, with a deferred 2026 launch date. That’s the last bit of news I can find, and it doesn’t seem like that is happening. Does anyone know the status of this new team? The most recent post from milwaukeeprosoccer.com is from 2023, and no formal team name or branding has been announced

First Time Visitor Coming for Baseball

10 Upvotes

Hi,

Coming to town end of next month for the Rangers series, we are ballpark chasers. Planning out our itinerary and need some advice. Staying downtown, no car. Interests; breweries, art, local sights, good food. Husband and wife, 30s.

Things want to do; Art Museum, Lakefront Brewery, Pabst Brewery Tour (tours run 11/12-4pm), Miller Brewery Tour (tours run 10-3pm)

Plan on taking the free shuttle buses from the bars to and from the games each day, will pre-game at the bars. Probably try a different bar/shuttle each day

Fri - Land 9:30am, was planning on taking public transport to hotel. Ditch bags. Thinking maybe trying for 12pm Best Place at The Historical Pabst Brewery tour, will walk 20mins from hotel. Do I need to prebook the brewery tours? Will they sell out? Either bus to Downtown/3rd Ward to explore or walk back to hotel if room ready, will probably want to take a little rest after flying in, after break, explore Downtown/Third Ward. St Paul for lunch/dinner. Pre game at bar and take shuttle to game. Baseball 6:40pm, want to get to stadium early to explore, check out tailgaters

Sat - Bus to Art Museum for 10am opening, Bus to Lakefront Brewery for lunch. Bus to back to hotel. Pregame bar, shuttle to game. Baseball 6:15pm

Sun - Baseball 1:10pm. Thinking of maybe doing 10am Miller tour, bus is direct to Brewery, however would have to take rideshare to stadium afterwards. Would do a tour after the game, but all will have finished by then. Thinking of taking it easy after the game, walk the riverfront if haven't already, any downtown sights we have missed.

Mon - Renting a car this day, returning it at airport at 4pm. Planning on having Sollys and Koops for either lunch/early dinner. Do a brewery tour, if haven't already done one. Perhaps go to Mitchell Park Domes, maybe do a Pabst Mansion Tour.

TBH not having a car during the weekend, I'm kinda struggling scheduling everything using the buses, but I don't want a car for the entire trips as hotel parking is expensive. Looking for help ordering activities around better? I've read that Lakefront Brewery is best on a Friday for Fish Frys but don't think we'd be able to fit that in with the baseball that night as well. Not looking to do a tour there. Thinking I might have too many possible tours.

Any help is appreciated, struggling scheduling everything around the games and public transport.

Many thanks,

Does anyone have delta dental insurance and love their dentist/hygienist? If so, I’d love to hear where you go. I need someone for twice a year for cleanings, and haven’t had luck finding anyone.

Vintage Clothes, Vinyl, Retro Decor at Holy Hill Antique Market on Saturday!

One of the biggest and best that is often over looked with 200+ vendors! Not to be missed! The 37th annual huge antique flea market this Saturday, July 25 from 7am to 3pm. Just $2 parking! Gorgeous drive and setting! Anything and everything you can think of can be discovered there; it's NOT one of those filled with modern, China-made stuff. If you love Elkhorn, you'll love this event! Holy Hill in Hubertus.

Has anybody navigated this building and couldn’t message and put me in the right direction? It’s a little embarrassing where I need to go, but maybe somebody else experience going there…

Any guidance and messages would be helpful thank you

Medicaid Memory Care

31 Upvotes

Does anyone have recommendations for a memory care or even dementia friendly assisted living that accepts Medicaid upon admission? My mother is on Medicaid and I’m not altogether pleased with her current assisted living facility but I think finding proper care may be harder under her circumstances (we have been struggling to find another place working with MyChoice case worker). I suspect the lack of support is not unique to her facility but have any of you had loved ones on Medicaid who found good care?

(Adding 1. I was her caregiver and it was destroying my life, I’m an only child with no family support and I visit her daily now that she is in a facility and 2. there are some very sweet caregivers where my mom is, not trying to drag them, but overall the level of care is incredibly disappointing and I’m stunned by how bad the admin is).
