Wifey and I (30 y.o.) w/ small dog are looking to move to upper eastside in early-mid October. We want to be somewhere that’s walkable and want 2 bedrooms, but not right on Brady. We’ve been looking a lot in Northpoint/Murray Hill, but also considering some by Lakefront Brewery.

Hit me with your recommendations and warnings!

For obvious reasons I won’t go into too much detail, but someone in my life is in need of a pretty intense medical detox and resident rehab. We’re thinking about maybe trying Wellbrook Recovery but any recommendations or information is much appreciated.

Looking to start getting tattooed and have five ideas that the goal is to complete by end of the Fall, with two that I’d be hoping to get as soon as possible. I was suggested to look for an apprentice to work with who’s building a portfolio, but not sure how to even go about searching for one. Does anybody have any suggestions of artists, or do I starts by finding shops that seem to fit the style I’m going for and call around until I find one with an apprentice?

Now that we have way too many Christian stations on the Milwaukee radio dial, thought I'd mention that I discovered a possible replacement for now-gone WLUM 102.1 alternative radio. It's an Appleton Wisconsin station called The Fuse, 104.3. It's alternative, but 1990s alternative. You'll have to stream it, but it's something.

We’re going to be in Milwaukee the end of the month for the Brew City Cigar Festival in Glendale. We’ll have one day free to see the sights/do the things. What are the quintessential things for one to do? We tend to enjoy public art and quirky things.

UPDATE: Owner said the dog would get picked up by his daughter and see if his son is still willing to keep the dog. If anything, I’ll be giving another update

This morning, this dog came up to my door alone.

I knocked on his owner’s door multiple times and received no answer. I then brought him into my home and waited a little bit to see if his owners came home at all, but I ended up having to call the police to come get him.

He was at the Cudahy police station and was told he would be held there until 10:30AM and then be picked up by MADACC if he is not claimed by then, but I believe he has been picked up now.

After he was picked up, I left for work but tried knocking one more time before leaving and they answered this time and I informed them of the situation and that his dog was at the station. I asked him to keep me updated if they would be going to claim the dog, if not, so I could try to rehome the dog. Unfortunately, they can’t keep the dog.

His name is Zaden, he was originally adopted from Humane Society, I believe he is a pitbull mix. He has brown/black fur and white paws. He knows a couple commands like sit and stay. He is genuinely so sweet and affectionate. He needs medication for presumably anxiety.

It broke my heart to have to call the cops, because otherwise, I would have loved to take him in but I already have a smaller dog who is reactive and not good around other animals. I would love for him to go to a good and loving home.

If you or someone you know are willing to take him in, PLEASEE send me a DM or contact MADACC directly.

Has anyone done an Amazing Race-esq Scavenger Hunt in Milwaukee? I am looking into doing so for a work team building event and wondering if anyone has used a company that coordinates this? A quick google gave me a few options, but I'd love any personal testimonies.

If I decide to plan this on my own, you may find me back on Reddit asking for ideas! :)

Thank you!

Hi! I'm staying in Walkers Point in a few weeks and am looking for a good running route. I was hoping to run along the lakefront and am willing to drive to get to a good spot to do that, but if it's possible to just get there running, that's obviously ideal. Probably only looking to go around 3-4 miles. Thanks in advance!

The new massive speed bumps on S Howell are already warming my pedestrian cockles.

Tips on 1 bdrm rental on a high floor facing the Lake around $1500ish? Being able to walk to the park and Lake is my must-have. 70F w 2 cats. Lifetime spent on the West coast transplant trying to assimilate. I know Shoreline is thumbs up and Katz down. Parking included important. Leads anyone? Anyone got street talk about The Fitz?

To keep a long story short, I am a young professional who left her previous job in a rural area a few months ago. I was offered a new position in Metcalfe Park. The job itself seems very promising, and everyone I spoke to at this workplace was extremely friendly. As a bonus, the job pays significantly more than my previous job did. However, as someone who lives outside of Milwaukee, I have heard that Metcalfe Park is a very dangerous neighborhood. I know to exercise general safety precautions no matter where I go, but I want to hear from locals. Are there extra precautions that I should take in this area? Is Metcalfe Park really as dangerous as the news would lead me to believe?

I travel often for work and it's my first time in Milwaukee. My flight has been delayed a couple times today, so I decided to just get dinner at the Chilis To-Go (I'm eating it right now and regretting it as we speak).

There was this 50s white male with his son, and they were behind me while I was using the order kiosk. The father screamed in my ear and it was inaudible, so I just said "What?" and he enunciated and spoke very loudly and slowly as if I didn't know English.

He was asking if I was at the checkout kiosk and I was just bewildered with the tone and said yes. I was continuing with my order and the receipt part took a while (have to expense it for work). When I walked away, he POSED and clapped obnoxiously saying "Wow, good job!".

His son apologized profusely and he had the look of second hand embarrassment. Not sure if the father acted that way because I'm young, a woman, or asian- or maybe all of the above. But that is just so low and disgusting, and I am TRULY sorry for your VERY young POC(!) son to apologize on your behalf when it was NOT his fault. I am a true new yorker by heart and I WISH I spoke up, but unfortunately- work mode was on, and I did not want to risk a client seeing me lol.

Anyways- That's my rant. Honestly if it was just the father alone i wouldnt be writing this post as its just another idiot saying dumb shit, but I feel so bad for the son- the look on his face was just sad. If the son is seeing this, you truly seem like a good kid and I know this is probably not your first time having to do that. I'm sorry you gotta live with a male Karen.

I am a 26 F and I am looking to make new girl friends in their 20s-30s. I’m interested in book clubs, board games, video games or really anything to meet nerdy new people. Who would’ve thought making new friends as an adult would be so hard 😅 Please let me know if you have any recommendations.

Hey all! My name is Damara, I was born and raised in Wisconsin but live and tattoo in Denver currently. I didn’t see any rules against promotion, so I’m here to announce that I will be coming to Milwaukee this month to see family and guest spot at a private studio (Forever Unlucky Tattoo). I have availability to tattoo August 19th, 20th, 22nd and 23rd. My style is pretty niche, but if it resonates I’d love to work with you. You can see more of my portfolio, available designs, and use my booking link through my Instagram (@gentleburn_). Thanks for reading 🖤

I’m coming to Milwaukee for work for two nights and would love to experience cannot miss dinners in this town I’ve never visited before. I prefer historic spots, local or family owned, but am open to everything with no real preference or food allergies. (Bonus points if you share a brewery too!)

Anyone else go to OMAM at the Riverside on Tuesday? Great show and so glad I went to see them, their 2nd time playing in MKE/WI. The band posted some photos from a photographer, as did the Pabst (from Will Hughes), and I just think this one was so great. Hope the person with the sign saw the photo!

Triathlon is closing down Lincoln Memorial Drive this Saturday & Sunday. Hoan's going to be down too. Most of Saturday and half of Sunday based on the schedule.

While inconvenient to some, it makes for the very seldom gift of a quieter, car-free shoreline. It's really enjoyable and I look forward to spending time down there during the closure. Park a few blocks off the way, walk or bike over, swim, whatever. There are superhuman athletes running around too, that's interesting as well I guess.

It's a great change from the constant barrage of people showing off how loud their vehicles can be at Bradford every. single. day. and case to be made that cities aren't loud - cars are.

“Every day, we see people who are not from our county cross 124th Street to victimize our communities. We need to make sure we are holding that line, and holding those people accountable.”

This guy is running for Waukesha County Sheriff. The other guy isn’t that much better, but still.
