Today, we honor Rev. Jesse Jackson on what would have been his 85th birthday. Rev. Jackson led the way, showing Chicago and the country what is possible when working people, educators, and communities organize with courage and purpose. Rest in power, Rev. Jackson. ✊🏾

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Whenever you see a pollster or consultant give a take like this, it’s always worth following the money. In this case, Emanuel has paid Anzalone’s firm nearly $300k (maybe more but that’s what I found so far). A consultant class is devouring the Dem Party www.elections.il.gov/CampaignDisc...

Underestimate @RahmEmanuel at your own risk.
He knows how to win. He knows how to fight.
And he knows how to message.
And no one will out work him. Regardless of whether he wins the Democratic nomination in 2028 he will make an impact on the race. You can be sure of that. Don't take your eyes off of him. At the minimum, learn from him.

I just honestly can't get over that Save Women Sports, an anti-trans group could only find five trans athletes competing K through 12. Five. The NCAA president testified a year and a half ago or so that there were less than 10 college level trans athletes. What the fuck are we doing, people

Someone in a nostalgic Chicago music group on fb posted a calendar for a punk club in the neighborhood I grew up in from the month I was born. I think that's neat.

On the way back to Chicago we stopped in Atlanta, Illinois for the American Giants Museum. (@violetbfox.bsky.social, I assume you’ve been here.)
Two fiberglass statues used for advertising in the previous century. One looks like Alfred E. Neuman. The other is 50s version of an astronaut with a blue space helmet. Two more fiberglass fugues. One is a cowboy, the other a Viking. A fiberglass statue of a weird cartoon woman in an orange dress.The Bunyon Giant — a fiberglass statue of a large man holding a large hotdog, and when I say a large hotdog I mean large even relative to the large man.

Just remembering how easy it was in my 20s to hit the turd circuit for a couple months when things we’re tight, and if you got in good with the banana-dancer you’d come back with enough to keep your belly quiet and maybe even buy a couple new silkies.
