Started my morning (at 6am)by the pepper mill once again falling out of the cabinet and into my bowl on the counter, breaking it.
I ❤️ vacuuming at 6:05am!
The pepper mill is officially banned from the cabinet as this is it's second offense. The first involved my foot and a really good bruise.

Astonishing: Bovino and his agents showed up at the Bean this morning to pose for pictures. While Border Patrol snapped photos, one agent shouted, “Everyone say, ‘Little Village!’” The neighborhood where they are least welcome and most acutely felt. blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/10/b...
Border Patrol Agents Pose At 'The Bean' For Apparent Photo Op
The photo op came after agents tear-gassed a Little Village street and were spotted in the area numerous times. At the Bean, one agent shouted, "Everyone say, Little Village!"

“Once my colleague pulled out his camera, the agent put away the gun," Huynh told the Sun-Times Tuesday night. "[But] if they can do this in broad daylight to an elected official, and point a gun at someone, imagine what’s happening behind closed doors.”

I've been watching some HR-related LI Learning courses (change management, PHR, workday, etc) and honestly, I should turn it into a drinking game: take a drink every time my former employer is mentioned.

Some of the books are real. Some aren’t. But how is it there’s been no big public outcry over this? No Guild grievance? Nothing?

This was just posted by @tbretc.bsky.social on another platform. The Chicago Sun-Times obviously gets ChatGPT to write a ‘summer reads’ feature almost entirely made up of real authors but completely fake books. What are we coming to?
