It's ridiculous that this is legal

Logging the Borealis miles this weekend...

Which I easily recognise as being of WIN (Winona, MN), what with the Jersey barriers separating the platform from the tracks.

(Would that the Borealis had more decent equipment for once; after all, such cannot depend on Superliner such forever ...)

Curiosi-Tea House

Another amazing local business that’s looking to close due to lack of customers. It’s a shame how many people haven’t even heard of it. It’s right next to a kwik trip! Their time is limited. Please check them out while you still can. I live and die for their grilled cheese. They also do tea tastings on the weekends that are fun.

Have to admit it’s a shame. I would rather have places like this than more coffee shops and Mexican restaurants. That’s my opinion though.

Pinball Event @ No Name, May 20th

Wanted to make a post promoting an upcoming event we're trying out, a pinball hangout and mini tournament at No Name Bar this coming Wednesday, May 20th from 7-9pm.

My buddy and I have been working hard the past few years to make pinball in Winona more enjoyable. We just concluded our third year of monthly tournaments at Two Fathoms (which will start up again this October, the second Tuesday of each month) and recently upgraded the lineup at No Name.

The facebook event link can provide more details, but essentially we're trying out a casual "learn to flip" event where people can practice and socialize. Stop by for an enjoyable time! No Name is even going to make pinball themed drink of some sort for the occasion!

Winona Pridefest

Pridefest is coming up! I thought the location last year was decent, but having it at Unity Park makes sense. There's definitely more room there. And there's a surprisingly decent lineup of performers this year.

Tattoo Place Recommendations

Hey, does anyone have any places they recommend for getting a tattoo?

I plan to get this tattooed on my arm and I want to know if anyone might specialize in pixel art work or could just do something like this.

bad drivers

why don’t ppl who drive in winona move over? you’re turning right? get in the bike line to turn. you’re in the left lane on 61 and someone is riding your ass cuz you’re going slower than speed limit. WHY DON’T U LET THEM PAST? YOUR’E NOT SUPPOSED TO STOP WHILE YOUR’E IN A ROUND ABOUT. WHO EVER COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP FIRST AT THE FOUR WAY INTERSECTION HAS THE RIGHT OF WAY. A YIELD SIGN IS NOT A STOP SIGN. just constantly disrupting the flow of traffic, CAUSING TRAFFIC. also why tf does the light on sarnia and huff, infront of the kwik trip take SO LONG to switch?? i swear i sit at that light on red with NO ONE coming for longer than i need to.

PCSL: Fun, safe, apolitical

Hey y’all. I’m part of a group of people who runs the weekly Winona PCSL matches. PCSL is a practical shooting competition where people grow their skills and safe handling of pistols and pistol-caliber rifles.

I’m sure a lot of you are reading this and imagining it is a political dumpster fire, super intense, or you e got to be awesome to enjoy the event. I wouldn’t call it any of those.

I’m not who you might typically associate with firearm ownership personally. I’d fall under the pro-2A left-leaning kind of person and for what it’s worth, I’m generally very comfortable at these events. Here’s my take:

  1. It’s super fun
  2. You don’t have to be good, you just have to be safe
  3. Yes we keep score, but we don’t pressure people on that.
  4. It’s safe. Send me a DM or post comments and I’m happy to try to explain more.
  5. Political discussions are forbidden.
  6. It’s not tactical, it’s a game.
  7. It’s open to the public.

Our matches are Tuesdays at 6pm at the Winona Sportsman’s Club, a local 501(c)3 group. I’ll answer any questions that pop up in the comments when I can.

Mid West Fest and Winona Music Scene

Hey everyone! I live in Wisconsin, and I’m visiting Winona this weekend. Not only am I going for Mid West Fest, but also to check out the city and see if it’s somewhere I’d like to move. On paper (Google and this sub), it checks a lot of boxes for me, but we’ll see what I think of it irl. I’ve already made a post asking about what it’s like and gotten some good recommendations of places to check out. But if anyone wants to hang out/grab a drink/hear some live music with me, feel free to message me or comment here!

One thing I’ve been wondering about is the music scene in Winona in general. I’ve looked up some bars to see what kind of events they host, I’ve seen some events for local bands and some DJs that seem to spin a wide variety of music. The reason I’m wondering is that recently, I’ve really gotten into house music, and that scene has been a great way to meet people in my current city. I’m just wondering if there’s currently any tangible house or EDM community in Winona. If not, no big deal, just thought I’d ask!
