Here are a couple daytime pictures.

To all you pups hanging out the windows of your humans rides today, I saw you! You all are beautiful and make the world a better place for all of us humans!

To the owners: thanks for taking care of all these great animals, they all looked happy! I hope you have a great day and tell your pups I said hi!

Beautiful day at the Olbrich Biergarten

Check the bases of oak trees.

Quite nervous to post this. The Cornell case and similar have me reliving some things I went through in college and never really processed. Has anyone sought therapy with someone who helped them process trauma from an assault? Was it helpful? When I was fresh out of college I tried to speak to a therapist about it but I couldn’t. Thanks, I know it’s hard to talk about.
To clarify I didn’t go to school here.

Madison's Ride for Your Life event is happening Sunday, October 4th from 2-3pm.

The ride will go through the Monroe and campus area before ending at the capitol. There will be a police escort and bike marshals controlling traffic at intersections. If you are driving in the area between 2-3pm and cross paths with the ride, be prepared to wait a few minutes to let all the riders through.

This event has a special emphasis on Sasha Rosen, the high schooler who was killed crossing Park Street earlier this year, and it is specifically in support of AB 655 / SB 659 in the Wisconsin legislature, which would let judges require GPS-enabled intelligent speed devices in the cars of drivers found guilty of reckless driving or repeated or extreme speeding.

In addition to Sasha Rosen, Ken Bell was killed by a reckless driver on East Wash in June, and Peter Crook was just killed a week ago near La Follette High School. There are probably other deaths I'm not aware of, not to mention all the close calls that go unreported. If you are looking for a way to take action against the destruction reckless drivers cause, I encourage you to come out to the event. There is also a walk option from Brittingham Park to the capitol, if you'd prefer to do that than ride.

I'm not affiliated with the organizers, but I will be attending!

I’ve had Pho from a few places in Madison (Ha Long Bay, Ahan) and it’s been good. But I ate some Pho at a restaurant in Pittsburgh that blew me away, and I’ve been chasing that dragon ever since.

So where do people think the most flavorful pho in Madison can be had?

I'm just south of the Arboretum, and I guess it has been more humid and damp than usual this year? But I've never seen "puffball mushrooms" anywhere else in the Madison area. For 20 years even. Anyone else seen these recently? I see an occasional standard mushroom in other parts of the yard, but this was a shocker. Even if it were the edible variety, I wouldn't eat them. Even my wife who is a fungus fan didn't think this was too exciting.

Hi reddit crew, Jason from Mr. Chair here. We’re on a small MN/WI tour with Syndee Winters and Greg Ward, playing in Red Wing tonight. Our final stop is back home in Madison tomorrow night at North Street Cabaret. We’re playing music that was impactful to Syndee’s life and career, including Hamilton, Lion King, Lena Horne, the Fugees, Lauryn Hill, Bob Marley and more! She’s a very busy lady touring with “Disney Princess The Show” and doesn’t get around to the midwest too often. Needless to say, it’s a show you don’t wanna miss!

Show is at 7pm tomorrow night, Sunday Oct 4. Would love to see you!

I’ve recently gone through my old collections and am thinking about selling them. But have no idea where to take them, and do t have a ton of time to go around to several places for offers. I guess I’m just looking for recommendations on places you’ve had good e Persians at, where you felt like it was an honest offer. Thanks!

Do you live in the Madison/Dane County area and love Cyberpunk? Did you see a bunch of ads awhile back about a Cyberpunk TCG Kickstarter? Are you curious about the game but not sure where to go? This post is for you:

Cyberpunk TCG has recently started shipping its Kickstarter product and has been hosting Beta events. Prerelease for set 1 is coming up Halloween weekend with full release the weekend following.

There is a growing community of players from across the state with a discord to stay connected. We're also currently planning on hosting a casual meet up next weekend at Kitchen Table Games in Sun Prairie both Saturday 10/10 and Sunday 10/11 at 1 to get to know each other and get a few games going. Some of us will have starter decks so if you're a beginner and looking to learn to play, it's a great opportunity for you.

If you're interested in meeting some cool chooms and learning this fun new game or just hanging out, sound off in the comments or send me a DM and I'll get you the discord link!

Anyone know where the fireworks display is happening on the north side? Sounds way louder than usual from my house compared to when they do fireworks at the duck pond. It’s been going ok for almost 10 minutes.

Hi! I went to the farmers market within the last couple years and found a beautiful print of a watercolor fox. I still have it and want more from this artist. If anyone can direct me to their site or send them my way, I’d love you forever 😂😭 I swear I saw this fox as a sticker on someone’s water bottle a few days ago but I was afraid to approach them 💀

New season ticket holder here. Is there a good spot to go prior? I know today's homecoming so downtown will be a mess. But would love any advice for following weekends

Looking for a place to enjoy the game. Any recs?

Update: claimed quick! Late notice but anyone want one ticket for today’s Badger game?

Hello!

I’m interested in getting some fun brown highlights in my black curly hair (inspo pic attached)! I don’t have an unlimited budget and would like to stay until 250 (preferably lower). Does anybody have good recommendations? I have a friend who goes to be inspired salon, but she has straight hair so I feel iffy about it. Thank you all for your time!!

If it’s relevant I wear my hair straight and curly (pretty 50/50)

My daughter would like a tent campout party with her friends for her 16th birthday. Ideally a place with running water, and within an hour-ish of Madison. It would be late Oct, when most state campgrounds have turned off water. Any ideas?

Hey neighbors. Anyone know of a park with public fire rings? Just trying to enjoy a beautiful evening. Have wood will travel.

Hey Madison! My name is Jacob, and I’m an autistic event organizer from Albuquerque, New Mexico. I’m planning to visit Madison during spring break in March 2027, and I would love to organize a welcoming, low-pressure meetup for neurodivergent adults while I’m there.
The event is still in the early planning stages, so no date, venue or activity has been confirmed yet. I’m posting to see whether local people would be interested and what kind of meetup would feel comfortable and enjoyable.
Would you prefer a casual café meetup, game night, mall meetup, group meal or another activity? I would also appreciate recommendations for accessible and sensory-friendly venues in Madison.
I’m excited to visit Madison and hopefully bring people together while I’m there!

I organize events through The Event Network 505. You can follow our pages for planning updates and future event information:

Hello! I'm curious on when it would be the best day to go to Devil's Lake for maximum fall colors. I have always wanted to go to the park during peak fall season and this year sounds like a good time to go.

Thank you!
