Our bike friend #intheblackphotography sent us a bunch of photos of our jacket. These sure beat my quick cellphone photos we've been using. I'm in love with the gangway photo - its so Chicago

Sorry to every city that isn’t Chicago.
Nice start to a Bears victory Monday, with the orange and blue highlights in the sky! @wgnradio.bsky.social

MLPS - If you know anyone who wants whistles, send them our way. We are happy to send as many as we can (minimum 100), free of charge.
We’re trying to ship as many whistles as possible from Chicago to Minneapolis. If you can help (3D printing or sharing any you have stockpiled), please message emidly.08 on Signal
Trump is sending another surge of ICE agents to Minneapolis - making our city the "new Chicago."

We’ve already seen masked agents commit crimes, arrest bystanders, and use excessive force.

This makes all of us less safe. Enough is enough.

If that doesn’t work, time to start punching cousins.

I took some dope photos of people and their bikes for @chiwho.bike, and clocked at least 1,000 miles all around around the city doing it

Rode a coach bus down to Springfield with SEIU to lobby at the Capitol and speak to our state rep about pensions. One of the older ladies was really impressed by how much of Rappers Delight my kids know.
inspired by @gravelinfluencer.bsky.social ... reply or quote with your best bus ride this year.

Mine was definitely the one where the guy was really intent on making sure I heard him complimenting my wallet. Other one was the mini-bus that took us around Sintra in Portugal.

What if we took potential solutions and turned them into new and somehow worse problems.
Yes, the city needs to actually repave streets. Yes, the city needs to repair sidewalks. Yes, the city needs to install curb ramps.

But the bigger problem is that when LA decides to do anything at all to "help" pedestrians, the result looks like this complete and utter bullshit

Every Bears game is like an episode of Friday Night Lights. The football doesn’t really make sense, but somehow the team with the likeable coach finds a way to win it at the end through a wacky sequence of events.

Perfect throw.

Feels like that Lovie season where the Bears kept finding ways to win, until they got crushed in the Super Bowl.
