accurate

the fact that media continued to cover noem and allowed the press conference to continue instead of yelling "hey what are you doing, stop" and shutting it down to cover the arrest a) is a huge problem b) can be traced back in a straight line to this failure to act

for so many women of color, the question of "where are you from" isn't meant to hear an answer it's meant to convey the border to us

why is this article framed around the officer's career

fascism is make-believe at gunpoint. even if everyone complied, the fascists will still eventually fail, hurting as many people as they can on the way down, because there is a thing out there called "reality" that you cannot bully away

fun fact: this led directly to a federal finding of discriminatory practices by the city

Let's talk about zoning! Did you know that some parts of Chicago are pre-approved for pollution? If you live there, developers can build a factory or huge warehouse with no public notice or city approval required. The Hazel Johnson Cumulative Impacts Ordinance can change that. #HazelJohnsonCIO

Anybody out there have any ideas for how to help a family full of ADHDers whose house has turned into a complete disaster since COVID? (I'm not talking about hiring a cleaning service). We've done traditional family therapy for two years now and nothing has changed and I don't know what to do.

Not downplaying the serious risks of escalating violence but this is not a tank it is a large WALL-E

this is outstanding. one of the joys of art is seeing brilliant people do amazing things

oh wow, they harmonize beautifully

I don't think most people fully appreciate the extent to which Chicago Public Schools is structured and controlled by the legal department

tbh I think most people don't even know we need this, because they assume you must have to get approved to build a factory. not requiring it would be ridiculous! but Chicago is ridiculous. by right zoning should be for affordable housing, not heavy industry

dear alders: this bill is *protection against political risk* people who have never heard the words "cumulative impact" will still say "this surprise factory/warehouse is screwing up my neighborhood. my alder says they didn't know about it, but how is that possible? they must be on the take"

it's a regulatory failure that power buttons are not required by law to immediately disconnect the electricity

the Broadway proactive upzoning will go in front of the Chicago zoning committee next week, so @abundanthousingil.bsky.social is asking for your help to show the committee that it's an important step for them to take to allow new homes to be built sooner

Absolute fucking 🔥. "Over eight hours...people throwing back tear gas...throwing anything that they could to defend themselves...Border Patrol retreated. “And the hundreds of workers in the factories were able to escape. If any community was going to fight back without apology, it was this one."

never once seen major media, pundits, or electeds do this. “i’m here today with a black trans woman who’s an abortion & immigration advocate. she accurately predicted everything that’s happened since 2015—often verbatim—on twitter. sorry we talked to carville 351 times, cassie. what comes next?”

oh this actually rocks bc ive been looking for a map like this for aoife reasons

it's not about what we owe taxpayers, it's about what we owe each other

I don't care about "taxpayer dollars" like what matters is the money. What matters is we could have done humane and useful things to care for people and build capacity. Instead we fixed up a private truck lot and gave a million dollars to a military contractor
