Bruno’s doesn’t have a social media presence, so I am stepping up to spread the word here. This is a great fundraiser for a great cause, dear to the hearts of Far North Siders for over a century. @chicagobars.bsky.social @chialderwoman.bsky.social @kmcchicago.bsky.social
Flyer for a fundraiser for Misericordia at Bruno’s Lounge in Rogers Park, Sunday May 18, 1 pm to 6 pm. Misericordia is a residential program for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. It does great work.

Rosemary is back at
Two side-by-side pictures of a woman named Rosemary, one from the past and one from the present, holding signs outside the Federal Building in downtown Pittsburgh. The left image is black and white, showing her with a sign that reads "Honk if you think Nixon should go to jail " and the right reads "Honk if you think Trump should go to jail "

I got laid off today, with the rest of 18F.

18F was an elite federal software shop. We made gov't websites work better, more efficiently for the American people. We saved taxpayers from getting screwed over by contractors. And were fired for it.

We made this website to tell our story:

On social media, people are spreading false rumors that FEMA has abandoned victims of Tropical Storm Helene for political reasons. The reality on the ground looks a lot less partisan.

Enjoying a special Half Acre variant only brewed for 15th Anniversary party. This Daisy Lager is a 4.5/5.0. It is a delightful lager more malty than their regular Daisy, but so much smoother and deeper in flavor yet still with the distintive hop notes of trad Daisy.
