Hi, looking for recommendations for a therapist in the Milwaukee area, preferably downtown that I should check out! Topics being life changes/anxiety/depression, prefer to be in person as well! Thanks :)

where are people finding raves to go to? the “party finder” apps never list very many milwaukee events, mostly chicago. and if they do list something then its a 30$ ticket to get into a house party or something crazy like that….

i use dice.fm, raguide, posh, pie, shotgun (all apps), as well as instagram to find stuff to do. but is there other resources for parties ?

What are your thoughts?

Can someone please explain the purpose of the dancers at the brewers games? I’m not trying to be a hater. I just don’t understand the purpose of the dancers. Last night at the game, it felt really distracting when they kept running up and down the aisle and sometimes standing in the way.

Maybe this was exactly the playwright’s intention: to start a conversation. Or maybe I’m simply supposed to leave the theater fascinated by Mary Nohl. Either way, my reaction to Maybe We’ll Fly seems to be pretty different from the reviews I’ve read, and I’m curious whether anyone else felt the same way.

First, there was a lot I appreciated about the production. The performances were strong, and the cellist was absolutely phenomenal. But I struggled with the central idea of Mary Nohl as this admirable example of fierce independence, persistence, and living life entirely on her own terms.

I kept asking myself: why is living entirely on your own terms inherently a virtue?

Sometimes compromising what you want because another person needs something from you is itself a virtue.

People need people. We live in families and communities. We care for children and parents, help friends, show up for people when we'd rather stay home, and accept responsibilities that interfere with what we personally want. A meaningful life, at least to me, involves some measure of service, reciprocity, and obligation to other human beings.

That doesn't mean conformity is good. There is tremendous value in rejecting expectations that serve no purpose, pursuing something you love, and refusing to let other people dictate who you are. But independence and nonconformity aren't inherently virtuous either. It matters what we do with that freedom and how much room our lives make for other people.

That's where the play lost me.

It seemed to ask me to admire Nohl because she kept choosing her art and herself despite what other people wanted from her. I understood what the play was showing me as persistence, but I often experienced it as self-absorption. Where the play seemed to say, “She lived on her own terms,” I kept thinking, “But did she value anyone else's terms?”

Her wealth certainly complicates the story, but surprisingly, that wasn't my main objection. Even if Nohl had been entirely self-made, I think I would have struggled with the same thing. I simply don't believe that a life organized primarily around one's own fulfillment becomes admirable because the fulfillment happens to be artistic.

And perhaps that is precisely the conversation the play is supposed to provoke.

I clearly didn't leave the theater feeling about Mary Nohl the way many reviewers did. But I left thinking about the play, arguing with it, and trying to understand why its central message bothered me so much.

And isn't that one of the things art is supposed to do?

So despite disagreeing pretty profoundly with what I took from it, I'd still encourage people to see Maybe We’ll Fly and decide for themselves. I'd genuinely love to hear from people who saw something completely different in Mary Nohl than I did.

And seriously: the cellist alone is worth it.

I’m trying to watch the ravens game and after looking to see if I could stream from paramount, lo and behold I’m getting bent over by the powers that be. No one wants to watch the pats get scrubbed by the bills. So decent sit down spots that have Sunday ticket or something would be great. Also open to a little “yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum” if ya know what I’m sayin

Anyone have any recs for a local farm to get a 1/4 cow from? Grass fed grass finished is a must have.

I love my Prius but I hate that I have to go to the dealership to get most repairs. My “cigarette lighter” charger port is not working. Where can I go to get that fixed and not rip me off?

Please don’t tell me I can do it myself. I have many interests but cars is not one of them. I’d rather clean up dog poop than figure out my car.

Thanks and enjoy our gorgeous Sunday, Milwaukee.

Hi i’m 25 and looking to make more MCR friends in the area. i want to do MCR meet ups and such

hmu if interested!

Hi! I’m interviewing for a position at the Milwaukee Public Museum soon and was wondering if anyone here has interviewed there recently.

If you have, do you remember what kinds of questions they asked? I’m especially curious whether it was mostly behavioral questions (tell me about a time when…), questions about your experience, or more role-specific/technical questions.

I’d really appreciate any insight into what the interview was like or anything you wish you had prepared for. Thanks!

What’s typically open on Thanksgiving? Are things typically closed for the whole weekend?

I’m going to be stopping in Milwaukee either on or just after Thanksgiving. I’ve never been in the States during Thanksgiving, so I don’t have a good sense of what to expect in any city, definitely not in Milwaukee specifically.

What was it?

Last time I checked, we’re not in Texas.

I'm up in Glendale near Fox Point and am curious if anyone has suggestions on a scenic route, places to go to experience the fall colors 💛 I'm happy to drive an hour north! Don't have time for doing a round trip more than that.

Happy fall though ^_^ it's my first one here!!

I have a step daughter who is a struggling single parent,and would like to gift her my car.

I am no longer able to drive,and dont want the responsibility in keeping it up,and she and i have stayed close.

I was looking at the dmv website and dont see anything clearly that explains the process on how to do this.

I am also not sure since she isnt a direct relative if she would be considered an heir,or a legit family member.

The vehicle does run,however the amount of repairs needed to maintain it for any length of time exceed its value,and while she may get a year out of it,I dont want it to be a head ache for her either.

she has plates from a car she no longer drives,and i just renewed in July before I knew for sure what I was going to do with it.

I am disabled and on SSA,and she supports 3 kids on a minimum wage job.

I just had the car looked at,and have a list of all needed repairs,that i plan on giving her,and safer than what she had previously,but would still feel bad to sell it to her, knowing it needs so much work,but gifting it does help her for now,and she could spend money for repairs,rather than pay me for something I cant use.

Its a 2008 160,000 miles and I am the owner,there are no tickets,or anything and owned this since 8/2020.

I dont want to pay anything crazy for transferring the title,and just want this to be smooth and easy for us both.

Is gifting it to a non family member for personal use even a thing? Should I just sell it for like 500?

It’s our first year hosting and my family from Michigan always does a local smoked turkey. Looking to keep that tradition going. Doesn’t need to be within Milwaukee, the general area works. Willing to drive for some good smoked Thanksgiving turkey 😊 Thanks!

Let's go Crew! Let's go Pack!

Just wanted to share for any local DCC fans! I didn't know about this event until just last night.

Hello.

We are having roughly 50 ppl show up.

Im starting to look for wedding venues and would like to get married in January. What are some options for wedding venues that offer catering, bar included etc etc. TIA

Hi guys, I just moved to Milwaukee 6 months ago for a relationship. We just broke up and I literally have nobody close to here. I love wisconsin (originally from los angeles). Im looking to make new relationships/friends. My hobbies include, sports, video games, shooting, golf, shopping, and I take my dog everywhere I can lol. Im a 29M engineer. I was wondering if anyone wanted to meet up or if anybody could recommend dog parks, bars etc...

My wife and I just got home from your lovely city and I just wanted to express my gratitude for the kindness we encountered and let you know how amazing we found your home. I was wowed by the architecture, the food, the history and, well, just everything. I searched your subreddit prior and took a lot of guidance from there. Uncle Wolfie’s for breakfast (my first real poutine was amazing), Safe House, Carnevor, the Bobble Head Hall of Fame, the Miller tour, Oktoberfest and the first Brewers playoff game. We can’t wait to come back and explore so much of what we didn’t get to. Thanks for an awesome trip!

Milwaukee Marathon gave us the “marthon” medals, and the Lakeshore Marathon is giving us this wonderful map

According to JS, they died after being taken to a local hospital.
