I'm sure some data nerd could provide the exact amount, but if one includes court costs we will hit $1 billion in public spending on cop abuse suits by the end the decade and maybe sooner (maybe next year) when the last $1 billion cost took 20 years.

The off note of the metaphor is Klein backs ideas which would make the wound worse and may even shoot him again to prevent actual treatment (i.e. socialism), and Ek-Sayed, while a more trustworthy, effective Doctor, alas still wants to on treat the symptoms & not the cause/shooter (i.e. capitalism)

Take Back The Night began in 70s had a campus revival in late 80s cos unis were covering up assaults, pressuring victims not to sue or charges & using mediation often light on rapists & abusers. L&O has had plots about it since 90s. 40 years of uni admins being bad on this over & over.

Thought: who is Diane McBain? Turns out comic book fans knew her cause she played a cartoony socialite on Batman. Can you imagine the level of nerdery to remember that back then when there was no internet to look up such things? I'm sure it was in some magazines but still.

Diane McBain as Pinky Pinkston on Batman 66 in her all pink room outfit hair and dyed pink little dog.

WAITING: Stand in Solitary to protest the closure of the DePaul Art Museum October 8th, from 5PM - 6PM DePaul Art Museum 935 W Fullerton Ave Gonna be out of town but show up for this. Details here and in alt text: thevisualist.org?p=194219

What: WAITING: A community demonstration

• Where: Begins at the closed doors of the DePaul Art Museum (935 W Fullerton Ave, Chicago, IL
60614) and extends east toward Lake Shore Drive

• When: Thursday, October 8th, 2026, from 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM

• Who: Open to all Chicago residents, artists, and cultural supporters

Local residents, artists, and culture advocates will stage a bold, peaceful civic demonstration titled WAITING to protest the closure of the DePaul Art Museum (DPAM). Participants are invited to gather to form a massive queue starting from the museum’s currently closed doors and extending down Fullerton Avenue toward Lake Shore Drive.

This fall marks what would have been the museum’s 15th anniversary. Before the DePaul University president announced its closure last spring, DPAM earned a national reputation for championing Chicago-based artists, elevating underrecognized voices, and fostering civic dialogue.

The demonstration is a commentary on the absurdity of losing a vital cultural anchor, and a heartfelt plea for the value of the arts in Chicago. By standing together, participants will highlight the void left by DPAM’s closure—echoing a broader national trend of shuttered arts institutions—and demonstrate the community’s desire to reconnect through art and culture.

Hardly the only off note in an old survey, just a more overt one & why I dislike coverage that repeat broad yet definitive staments on long term trends & then vs now from study summaries without interrogating methodology at all, let alone close enough to find things like this.

One of my fave small things in Logan Square: a sign at California Food Mart has said We Sell Mask for 6 years until someone wrote a small S on the window recently, agressive but not fully confident. And you know they've lived here since 2020 at least & it bugged them the whole time.
