eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Please journalists for the love of god ask republicans if they are okay with this and if they aren’t, will they impeach him? President uses taxpayer dollars to glaze himself? I doubt most people will agree with this 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 30/09/2026If he was he’d have better sense of dress. These brown oxfords are not it. 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 28/09/2026The thing I noticed is how pleasant and quiet it was. Walking became a pleasant stroll, not a hurried scuffle along the edge of a street on a 4 ft wide sidewalk. 010
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Is it just vehicle access or specifically punishing bike use? There is this spot near where I live that restricts cars, allows pedestrians, but there is a pedestrian curb ramp to enter onto Polk going west and one of the curbs of the ramp is raised, making it really difficult to bike through. 110
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 19/09/2026What? Wars throughout history never spin out of control and expand beyond its original scope far beyond what was originally hoped by military hawks! Never! 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 08/09/2026The Republican Party is such a target rich group, how do we keep losing to these ghouls? 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 07/09/2026Bike the Drive was beautiful! I hope when this is redesigned they include lanes and space for more than just cars: buses, bikes and expand the LFT. 090
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 06/09/2026The corridor on the west side between the blue line and green lines is ripe for Toronto-style dense clustering. Do you also have maps for FAR designation? 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 02/09/2026It’s certainly a trade off; however I ride the 157 in Chicago and I kid you not these two are bus stops for that line, east bound. In Chicago especially a little consolidation might be in order. 130
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Where my free speech NYT and Atlantic warriors at? 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 30/08/2026Oh his presidency mattered: it’s just mattered in the same way that the civil war mattered because it almost destroyed the union. 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 20/08/2026This sheered sheep really didn’t like me getting close for a photo at the state fair 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 06/08/2026I genuinely don’t get this fear: Dems have run a moderate 3 times against DJT and lost twice. Dems ran a progressive in 2008 and won. This assertion is far from having data to back it up. 120
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 05/08/2026The Missouri Legislature is completely unhinged for putting these on the ballot, but thank god Mo voters are sane. 030
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 31/07/2026Genuinely why even be a journalist if you’re only ever going to regurgitate what other people say. It clearly IS a giveaway to the Trump family. Literally and functionally it’s transferring wealth from taxpayers to the Trump family. Even the immunity is a privilege no other person has. 130
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 24/07/2026Out of curiosity, does anyone have a good lake to south loop connection in the circled area? My best is to find a way to 11th st. and then cross Michigan to get to the bridge over the Metra lines and under DLSD, but it’s not bike friendly. I have to get there via either Harrison or Roosevelt. 100
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Any guesses if he’s going to use this to announce the Insurrection Act and declare an emergency to take over the elections? At this point I don’t put anything past him. 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 13/07/2026I take an EV downtown all the time. No charging necessary 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 08/07/2026Emergency oil flows were expected to dry up roughly by tomorrow, July 9, according to this Brookings article. The real energy crisis may be very much around the corner with the death of that anemic MOU. www.brookings.edu/articles/the... 010
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 02/07/2026Gerri may have been wrong, it seems this current government literally is a pez dispenser: give Trump a golden trinket or a movie about his wife or some bribe via his crypto and you get whatever you want! 110
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 13/06/2026I’m also wondering why this person pointed out the obvious 100
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 09/06/2026I seem to remember another user doing something similar. Do you have this one on West Bowler? 100
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 09/06/2026Can Chicago design even just one street like this? @thepeoplescdot.org 1183
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 04/05/2026Just learning this now. It was basically an early Jan 6! 0132
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 07/02/2026These neighborhoods are a mess of cars and it’s so frustrating that a bunch of rich yuppies moved in, converted 2 and 3 flats to SFHs, and still drive everywhere despite it being one of the best neighborhoods for transit and biking. 1300
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 30/01/2026The timeline of Tesla stock and its fundamentals make it pretty obvious to me it’s mostly a meme stock that hasn’t yet burst. It’s been insane seeing “serious” people talk about it like it’s anything else. 110
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 26/01/2026If other people want to read my words and insert their own meaning into those words, contrary to the popularly held understanding of those words, then I can hardly stop them can I? 110
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 26/01/2026I’ve already seen accounts calling to withhold their vote against Democratic Party unless the entire party vows to abolish 🧊, which is an unreasonable threshold. Below is just a very recent one I’ve seen. It’s self-defeating, and possibly outside influence. There are saboteurs in our midst. 610
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 26/01/2026The type of rhetoric now is self-defeating and poisonous. 021
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 25/01/2026Bigoted racist always feel the need to beat up on somebody to feel better about themselves. Whether it’s African Americans, Jewish People, or immigrants, or anyone else, they have to attack their targets because they’re deeply insecure. 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 13/01/2026Yeah whatever happens, this can’t continue to be the nearest entrance to a Metra station for the city’s largest mega development. 021
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 13/01/2026Are they just unaware of modality filters in a grid. It’s actually super simple, has the exact same effect to slow down traffic, but maintains a pedestrian friendly grid. This isn’t rocket science. I’m tired of incompetent people in charge of urban planning. 020
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 12/01/2026I have a whole album called “trees I like” but this one is in Ravenswood Manor and I used to walk by it all the time when I lived in Albany Park. It has a whimsical posture where it almost looks like it’s mid dance. I don’t know if it’s my favorite but it’s the first that came to me. 020
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 23/12/2025Also, very fascinating is the all lower case text. Tho Gen Z likes to think they’re the first people to ever think of typing in all lower case, lo and behold 000
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 26/11/2025This is the vision that suburban mayors and Chicago alders in far flung neighborhoods should have for the rail corridors. I know Toronto isn’t perfect, but every Metra and CTA outskirts station should have a cluster of high rises. 081
eggnogenjoyer @patrickhostert.bsky.social · 20/11/2025Elon Musk’s entire thing is a massive pump and dump. 010
