Hi, I would like to be put back on the timeline where Pru is still on the Great British Baking Show, thank you.

Been hunting for a good public garden in Chicago, which I’m discovering is surprisingly sparse in the public garden department. Anyway, here’s Prairie Ave - once Chicago’s millionaires row. These are all contemporary but gotta say that I wish we built new stuff like this all over the city.

Abhorrent in every conceivable way. A country of barbarism and a state that is happy and willing to intimidate its citizens.

I remember when Biden’s job numbers would come in at 250k and they were “disappointing”, “tepid”. Trump gets 75k and it’s “robust” and “hot”. Glad to see CNN call it out, these numbers suck because the economic theory of Republicans is based on looting.

This needs to be said more and more. The weaponizing of gentrification terminology is leading to terrible outcomes for cities - it reinforces segregation, gatekeeps generational wealth building, contributes to the housing crisis, etc. Neighborhoods are not static and shouldn’t be.

The Griffin Museum of Science and Industry’s proposed Welcome Hall would spoil one of Chicago's "great urban vistas" and should be sent back to the drawing board, writes Sun-Times architecture critic Lee Bey.

If you’re posting publicly the assumption is you’re open to feedback and discussion from others. Acting like someone has swooped in on your dms or a private discussion is weird behavior. I realize everyone is angry and in a bad mood but civility is a virtue and just be nice unless given a reason.

Has no one in the media picked up on the fact that the President of the United States is charging $88,600 for a photo op? It’s straight up Nazi code and it seems to either not have been noticed or it’s getting a pass. It’s incredibly blatant.

Any other Chicagoans feeling like summers here are becoming over programmed? I feel like for months I have struggled to find any kind of chill quiet public space. It is nonstop concerts, events, festivals, parties, PA systems, constantly day or night, every corner of the city.

Took a minute out of my day to reach out to my senators regarding the USPS ballot handling news. Please let your reps know that this is unacceptable!

Visiting Canada and I feel sorry for all these businesses in Montreal about to go out of business because they closed the street to cars and there’s no street parking.

No no no. The establishment moderate *barely* won, seems like the voters actually rejected the candidate and the movement is in crisis, right media? That’s how this works.

Spines melted into puddles on the floor. Blitzer just sitting there smirking and doing nothing. No one walks out no one claps back. They just sit there and take it. The state of American journalism has got to be one of the biggest problems in society right now. Just total lapdogs.

Been a struggle to enjoy the summer so far but tonight was pretty good before the smoke rolled in again. I forget that this iconic pavilion used to be parking lots and railroad tracks. Hard pressed to think of a better civic space with a better view in the country. #chicago

If you look at the philosophical influences behind people like Yarvin, bronze age pervert, Thiel, Musk, etc and the general nihilism and accelerationism inspiring this administration and their reaction to perceived wins from the feminist/lgbtq movement everything that is going on is totally expected

U.K. might lose a prime minister because a guy who worked for him knew another guy who hung out with Epstein. Meanwhile the U.S. opposition party is telling our President, who was Epstein's best friend, that his secret police should get better training so their public street murders look less messy.

Hate to feel this way but this really feels like Americans are going to realize what is really going on when it’s way too late. This isn’t about reform or abolition, we are way past that and we’re going to find out much sooner than later just how bad things are. We are missing the moment.

ICE has now carried out two summary executions of innocent people in the streets of an American city. If you work for ICE, there's no denying that's the mission you're supporting now. You don't get to claim in one year or ten or twenty that you didn't know what ICE was doing. You're complicit.

I generally wouldn't recommend watching a 30 minute speech at the World Economic Forum. But it's wild, watching the post-war global order break down in real time today. A strong speech of world historic importance, but a portend of some very dark times to come. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dE98...

One of the stories that makes me the saddest out of this ICE invasion is one out of the Minnesota Star Tribune today about ICE agents eating at a little Mexican restaurant in the small town of Willmar, Minn, —and then, when they were done, arresting some of the workers.

Way past time for blue states to band together and withhold federal taxes until this stops. Let’s see how well the feds do relying on Mississippi and Alabama.

I hate to break it to you, but heavily-armed government militias are roaming unchecked through US cities and shooting human rights observers dead in the streets. That's happening in our country.
