If all the music you listen to is generated just for you, telling people about what you've been listening to will be more boring to them than you telling them about your dreams.

We need 1,000 of these in Chicago, 20 in each ward, the lack of public toilets is a complete failure of public policy

Hey chicago bicyclists! I have a friend who is moving to albany park neighborhood of chicago, near the end of the brown line and wants to start biking for daily errands, haven't biked in a while. What advice would you give? They want to stay anonymous at this time.

There's something about the visual cues on this section of DLSD that makes people drive especially way too fast. Most of the other highways feel like concrete canyons so you fear the walls but DLSD is wide open. People crash into the metal barricades by the LFT all the time.

I'm not real good at berating people so don't worry.

Got an idea for a stand-up bit where I ask if anyone drives a pickup truck and then just berate them for the rest of the show.

I have always kinda thought that the current lawlessness we have on surface streets started with letting everyone drive too fast on freeways.

Same thing on every highway in Chicago. If you go the posted limit of 45 mph, you kinda feel like you're standing still.

It's Movie Monday on the blog. There are many people - some of them claiming to be Coen brothers fans - who dislike 2016's HAIL, CAESAR!, to date the last big-screen feature they've made as a duo. I am not one of those people.

What's most remarkable about this news story from Los Angeles isn't the circumstances, sadly, but news coverage that is sympathetic to tactical urbanism and precise in its use of language. Something is shifting public perceptions of the problem of traffic violence, and how to solve it.

This stuff sucks. Had a guy in the hood who was lighting garages on fire and likely robbed my own house... This city/state/country can offer no solution but prison or death for these folks--and it was ultimately the latter in this case.

Why isn’t Senator Tammy Duckworth picking up the phone?
Two Chicago organizers discuss what it means if elected officials make life-and-death decisions without taking their constituents' calls.

Duckworth always sucked. She ran on "I'm a veteran... And a Democrat... And a veteran" and waltzed in with no policy positions. And she's exactly that person as a senator.
