@untappd Are there any issues currently with the app/API? I’ve been getting the “it’s not you, it’s us” message for over an hour, and the Status page isn’t indicating any issues. Web site works fine, at least.

Something something “the peasants and lesser yeomen of Britain have been getting beat by the Royals for centuries….amirite?”

These two were made for each other.

@BuildKCSC Is there a process in place with this project to get street closures (and their durations) reported accurately to online map providers? Using Google Maps as an example, it still shows 27th St as being closed through the end of October.

I biked in western Belgium a couple weeks ago - it was great! Trip report: https://t.co/NKvy0gGky2 @BeerAdvocate

So, uh…who’s excited for #Nebrasketball ? (I am, in the “going to my annual game tomorrow” sense.)

[Jesse Whidden @swid.bsky.social @swid]

I’m buying this and wearing it to every KC neighborhood meeting for the rest of my life. Thanks @RockhillStrat and @RAYGUNshirts !

[RAYGUN @RAYGUNshirts]

It was high time to make shirts about KC's passion for surface parking lots. Inspiration from @RockhillStrat. These are online now and will be in our KC store for First Friday this week. A portion of sales to @BikeWalkKC. CC @STBikesKC @BarsottiKlb #raygun https://t.co/ew1jlQtIrz

@JamesStevenson @infinity232 Perfect - thanks!

[Jesse Whidden @swid.bsky.social @swid]

@JamesStevenson A friend of mine (@infinity232) will be in LA this weekend and wouldn’t mind trying Howlin’ Rays - heat recommendations for a first-timer?

[Jesse Whidden @swid.bsky.social @swid]

@JamesStevenson Eh…a lingering sense of responsibility, I guess?

[Jesse Whidden @swid.bsky.social @swid]

One advantage of working Central-ish hours in the Pacific time zone - a mid-afternoon beer.

@kclightrail FWIW, I can’t recommend @Twitterrific highly enough.

@KCMO While everyone loves watching a press conference…any plans on posting the URL that details the updated emergency order? https://t.co/mPs4OUBXcB

It’s 4:50 PM and Teams is down, so I assume that’s Microsoft telling me to call it a day and watch baseball.

[Jesse Whidden @swid.bsky.social @swid]

I got mail from @wiki_tmnt today, I don’t know when or how, but someday, I’ll be able to state “Why yes, I *am* a card-carrying...”

[Jesse Whidden @swid.bsky.social @swid]

@Boulevard_Beer - There's a question on @BeerAdvocate about Nutcracker Ale's relationship to the Burton ale style; is anyone able to chime in on this? 🙂
