Sometimes sports journo, sometimes comms pro, always a maker. Love Chicago. Probably making a Taskmaster or Murder, She Wrote joke. I won't answer any questions you can Google. I'm here for conversation, not debate. I mute whining about officials.

The Trump administration arrested 106 protesters this fall, calling them “rioters” and saying the National Guard was needed to protect the immigration agents.
But only 9 cases still have a pending felony charge.
Most are falling apart in court.

Rioters? Agitators? Immigration agents’ claims against US citizens mostly fall apart in court.
Time and again, Donald Trump’s immigration agents claimed horrific crimes at the hands of protesters in Chicago. Those allegations of abuse did not withstand the scrutiny of judicial review.

Cannot recommend nights like this enough.
After 9ish(?) years in a group DM that moved to text, @maggiehendricks.bsky.social, @sarakatew.bsky.social, @stefanielaine.bsky.social, @joannepistonfan.bsky.social and I all did something together for the first time (virtually). More Yahtzee nights to come, aunties. ❤️

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

There's no greater love than this. That man adored his family and they adored him right back.
They cut in old clips of Dad and I love this man and am so sorry for their loss (though he will be immortal)

I was at Sluggers with my sister and some friends and Brad Miller was there (when he was playing for the Bulls) and he started hitting on my sister and she said "You had a shit game last night. Leave us alone." And he walked away and paid for our next round.
Right folks. Feeling rather down at the moment so bringing back an oldie

Looking through my camera roll for the first time in a week and please enjoy these photos of my sister trying (and succeeding!) to embarrass the SHIT out of my tween niece by chanting "6-7" while doing the hand thing and then also dabbing

Cori Close is right to be disappointed in the lack of media coverage yesterday.
Everyone watches women’s sports, but no one wants to pay a beat writer to cover them.

the best action to take about this is to subscribe to papers that cover women’s sports so that they keep sending women’s sports writers to cover stories
