At no time did I explicitly say, nor did I ever imply that I'm ok with deaths from preventable vehicle collisions.

I merely challenged the idea that there is an identifiable pattern of 1st Degree murders or manslsughters related to such.

Please listen to me as to why this sign is a bad idea, and needs to be improved.

I am the parent of a person with serious developmental and intellectual disability. The first two things listed on this sign are well-known disability-related behaviors.

Deepseek user here. Here is evidence that Deepseek is biased. I asked for info about Joe Biden, which it gave me. I then asked what it knew about Xi Jinping, but got denied any info at all.

Then there's "The Detective Area"

This focuses on the policies, procedures, and internal investigative records of the Chicago Police Dept Bureau of Detectives without a political bent.

I was walking down the street a few days ago as I was on my way to get my son from school, and saw this majestic bird swoop down from a roof and land in a tree that was close to me.

I'm no bird expert, but I believe this is a Peregrin Falcon.

November 23rd, 2024, was my wife's 1 year death anniversary.

She died exactly 60 years to the day President Kennedy was assassinated.

November 23rd, 2023, was a Thanksgiving day.

She always LOVED Disney, and loved the Chicago Mag Mile Holiday Parade. So my son and I went to that event this year

Good morning, world! We have a dangerously cold morning here in Chicago. Below zero windchill.

Good day to stay inside and stay warm. People like me have no choice. Asthma, reactive airway disease, and COPD mean any time the temps drop like this, I'm inside without a choice in the matter.
