Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.
He is a computer safety researcher.
And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

Anyone mocking those who will starve without essential food assistance, that is the SNAP program, is a piece of shit human being.
No amount of "christian", "✝️", or "jesus is king" will hide what a piece of person someone is for cheering for people to starve.

A #BlueskyLullaby for tonight: This neat clip I'd never seen before has been making the rounds. On October 4, 1963, Barbra Streisand (just 21 years old) joined Judy Garland to sing this cleverly intermixed medley that Garland herself cooked up. See you around.
