Happy Birthday Mr. Jones!
Thank you Rand Paul for finally convincing me to focus on the substance and not on the misuse of "literally." OH, and GFY; Chicago is wonderful.

Thank you for capturing this. It was baffling why everyone was cheering at the prison until I figured out where the tapping was coming from!
Seen (heard) today during the "No Kings" protest march in Chicago: people inside the federal Metropolitan Correctional Center in Chicago tapping along as marchers pass by outside. The tapping is loud enough that it can be heard above the protestors' cheers and chants.

Finally, the inconvenience of having a different last name than my children pays off. Unfortunately voting is more important than school forms.
Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married?

We need your help right away! Senate Bill 2111 is currently under consideration. It would allow bicyclists to treat stop signs as yield signs — a proven method to reduce crashes at intersections. Please ask your state senator to support SB2111! activetrans.quorum.us/campaign/118...

What would happen if they received countless FOIA requests about this?
Everyone read this
I hope people see how truly alarming this is:
1. Musk's team, who may not even be US govt employees yet, have complete access to OPM's databases of PII on federal employees and have locked out career employees
2. Musk's people trying to do same with THE US TREASURY MASTER PAYMENT SYSTEM 🚨

My first act of defiance after the election was to initiate a @chicago.suntimes.com subscription. Local media is vital to fighting the fascism taking over our country. Everyone needs to support their local newspaper (unless it's owned by horrible VC overlords - looking at you @chicagotribune.com).
The nonprofit owner of the Chicago Sun-Times is calling for staff reductions that will fall heavily on the publication’s newsroom employees.

Sun-Times owner seeks voluntary buyouts from the newsroom
The reductions shape up as the most severe since the publication joined with WBEZ in 2022, a pioneering move aimed at sustaining local journalism.

Is there a setting where I can block any mention of the Orange Cheeto? I'm not in denial, but I need some more time to accept the end of our democracy.
