If the weather prophesies are accurate, we'll have had a rain storm and a snow storm within days of each other. 1/2" of rain yesterday, 6" of snow tomorrow night. #Wisconsin
Look out #Wisconsin: While other states are eliminating cash bail, state Republicans are pushing a constitutional amendment to make it easier for judges to RAISE the bail even higher. They want to put it on the April ballot. https://lacrossetribune.com/news/state-and-regional/govt-and-politics/constitutional-amendment-to-change-bail-likely-headed-to-wisconsin-voters-in-april/article_a7252750-1cab-5934-9e59-e64db906de3d.html#tracking-source=home-the-latest
This game is not interesting, so why am I watching it?
It must be because I enjoy seeing #Brady humiliated.
Paul Fanlund has his knickers-in-a-knot over proposed zoning changes to increase density near the upcoming Bus Rapid Transit lines in Madison. Why? Apparently because it would change "the single-family character of our neighborhood." So he's a NIMBY.
But this made me LOL: "I wonder about younger families who bought modest starter homes... expecting that they could depend on zoning protections." Where exactly are these "modest starter homes" in #Madison? https://captimes.com/opinion/paul-fanlund/opinion-proposed-zoning-changes-may-shock-madison-homeowners/article_29d4193f-c2a0-5ed8-b32a-86a42fcae44e.html
One of the more complete Jeff Beck remembrances you're gonna find.
He may not be "widely known", but his influence is wide-ranging. If you've ever listened to Clapton, Cream, Rod Stewart, Led Zeppelin, or many others... you've listened to music influenced by Jeff Beck. #JeffBeck #guitar https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/jan/12/heart-full-of-soul-the-maverick-genius-of-jeff-beck-the-guitarists-guitarist

For generations, LAPD has had Big Problems in its interactions with POC. Obviously, these problems have not been solved.
So there's a crash at Venice and Lincoln (Lincoln is also Hwy 1, this is about 10 blocks from the beach in Venice). Cops show up with guns blazing, and treat a crash victim like a hard-core criminal. They tased him for 30 seconds while yelling "stop resisting" (?!?), even though the weight of a cop was on his neck. #BLM #LAPD #PoliceMurder https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/jan/11/black-lives-matter-co-founder-cousin-killed-los-angeles-police
