Is your brain full of mind vampires?
A comic all in red, depicting a man with a cut out of his brain with a vampire skulking inside of it. 
Big text at the top says "is your brain full of mind vampires? you are not alone."
The vampire says "bleh! bleh! I am 2000 years old. Bleh! your only desire now is to find my amulet."
The man says "Dang, gotta find that amulet."

Further text at the bottom says "there is no cure for mind vampires but there is support and management. Know the warning signs, get help early."

Gas prices in Chicago today, a good time to walk, ride a bike or take public transit whenever you can!
A BP station’s sign reflects gas price per gallon at $5.99 for regular, up to $7.99 for diesel.

Holy cow. This may not be a permanent victory, but my god it’s a victory! Omni hasn’t flown for ICE for months. And I heard there was a big layoff last week. Now we can say for certain it was due to the negotiations between Stonepeak and the Chicago alders. Wowowow. news.wttw.com/2026/09/15/d...

Deal Reached to Sell Chicago Parking Meters to Investment Firm, Alderpeople Say
The deal requires Stonepeak to sell Omni Air International, which has a contract with the Trump administration to carry out deportations, according to the City Council members.

Alex says "man, the world is such an unjust place." She gets to work constructing a weird little guy and says "I'm fabricating a fucked up little sculpture to express my feelings..." Another woman passes by and says "hey, that's cool. You wanna join me volunteering at the food bank?" Alex says "Pass. I'm really exhausted from making the sculpture."

cops hate automated enforcement *because* its fair. They conceptualize their role not as punishing rulebreakers but punishing "bad people" (poors and minorities). They dislike red light/speed cameras because they wind up punishing "good people" for doing something they see as essentially harmless

holy moly @hausofdecline.bsky.social in @inthesetimes.com ???
Photo of a page from the July issue of In These Times, depicting a six-panel comic from Haus of Decline. 

Panel 1: A woman standing and smiling in front of a chart. “THE ADVENTURES OF BLOODLESS QUANT”
Panel 2: Another woman pleads to Bloodless Quant: “Bloodless Quant, please help! I can’t afford to feed my family!”
Panel 3: BQ replies, “That’s ludicrous. The stock market is at an all-time high”
Panel 4: The woman says “But groceries are—“ but BQ cheerfully interjects, “You shouldn’t make statements if you don’t have economic literacy!” 
Panel 5: BQ holds up a chart with a line rocketing upward, saying “Here’s a chart explaining why your fears are unfounded”
Panel 6: A boy asks the woman, “What are we having for dinner tonight?” The woman dejectedly stirs a pot with the chart in it. “Chart,” she replies.
