After separating from #franklloydwright, Russell Barr Williamson went on an #architectural tear - designing 54 homes, theatres and clubs in 12 years- and then burned the work. Why? elizabethmurphyhouse.com/2026/02/21/w...
Aficionados of the work of #franklloydwright and #historicarchitecture are invited to learn why he cancelled and covered up the #americansystembuilthomes. NSSS #Milwaukee, March 17. elizabethmurphyhouse.com/events/
The #pebbledash on #franklloydwright’s #americansystembuilthomes was one of two types of #magnesite, purchased against Wright’s wishes, and shipped from far, far away. elizabethmurphyhouse.com/2026/01/09/p...
In this first of two posts, we will build the case that Pebble Dash was not a distinctive feature of #FrankLloydWright’s #AmericanSystemBuiltHomes. It was someone else’s idea. #architecturalhistory elizabethmurphyhouse.com/2025/12/23/p...
To include everyone on last year’s long waitlist, we’re excited to be hosting another round of in-depth tours of #FrankLloydWright 's Forgotten ASBH Model A203 for members of the UW - #Milwaukee School of Continuing Education in April, 2026. Details to follow. #OSHER elizabethmurphyhouse.com/events/
Good #milwaukeeans gathered in peaceful protest of monarchs (not the butterfly.)
#ILoveAmerica, precisely because it has #NoKings. See you in peace next weekend.
Excited to read #aboatshapedmind, by sailor, super dad, and now author Tim Kent. #everesthorizontal.
Noticing niceness in many common human interactions recently. Perhaps AI - and the loneliness and detachment it brings - has real people appreciating real people.
Which model do we trust?
#Sailing stands apart as one of the last true natural experiences. You enter the elements head first and don’t try to escape them; indeed, often you can’t. sailingmagazine.net/article-1687...
Congratulations to 47 and 47m for managing to turn Wisconsin blue again in just 10 weeks. A major accomplishment for the administration.
@uwiscpress.bsky.social, the fine publisher of my book #FrankLloydWright's Forgotten House, has unveiled a slick new website and is offering 30% off of most titles. #readmore #architecturalhistory uwpress.wisc.edu
Sobriety, here we come.
The subscription I once paid to the @washingtonpost.com has been re-purposed as a donation to @propublica.org. I urge you to do the same.
When he pitched oil executives for $1 billion in election donations, do you think he told them he’d be selling an electric car?
Is it ironic or predicted that this originalist court has sewn an Emporer’s new clothes?

Record-breaking, market-making Bidenomics (SPX + 55%, DJIA +36%, COMP +46%) is officially over thanks to these numbskulls.
I’m reduced to 3 goals. (1) Outlive 47. (2) Watch M47 launch himself toward Mars. (3) Witness and lend a hand in the reconstruction of a proud, optimistic and honest Nation.
In a matter of months, AI has destroyed Google and Bing search. I don't need a conversation, I need a list of possibilities so I can pick and choose. It took 20 seconds to tell my browser to hit DuckDuckGo and I feel so much freer and safer.
When might we start the adult conversation about making a better world for our children? Just wondering.
Why we can’t have nice things.
Goodbye Facebook. I’ll take my time back now.
Uecker left just in time to not have to witness joking cease altogether. RIP Bob. Thanks for the laughs.
Meanwhile, the French solo-sailor Charlie Dalin has circumnavigated the earth in 66 days, crushing the record in the Vendee Globe. There may be hope for humans.
A long-overdue history of Russell Barr Williamson's Eagle's Club in Milwaukee courtesy of Bobby Tanzilo, who is Urban Spelunking. Chock with historic photos. Also, FLlw's influence underlies. onmilwaukee.com/articles/the...
Another Gnome flick may be in the works. This time, they're shipwrecked off MKE during a polar vortex. (Or are they elves?)
