Again I say, VOTE ALL OF THESE FUCKERS OUT. We don't need symbolism, we need you to fight like hell.

If we ever get to vote again, we're voting all these fuckers out.

Yo @durbin.senate.gov, no one is picking up your Senate phone and you don’t even have a voicemail. Vote no on cloture and the spending bill or I will do whatever it takes to make sure the next Senator from Illinois has basic constituent services set up during business hours.

It’s a real shame the Democrats suck shit because they could easily turn this second Trump term into 60 years of one party rule.

Note to self: Abigail Spanberger is running for governor of Virginia. The woman Matt Damon seduces with the nose in Ocean's 13 is Abigail Sponder.

The Lone Bellow and Morgan Wade at Salt Shed. Love live music!

Story on how two Illinois businesses are already being impacted by the tariffs. Starts with a midnight dash across the border! chicago.suntimes.com/small-busine...

Yes.

I have to say that Thursdays giving me Dr Pacey followed by Dr Carter makes this 42-year-old happy.

This is lovely.

Who's gonna primary Schakowsky? She was one of the first politicians whose name I knew, I got an "I'm a Jan Fan" from my first Pride parade...in 2001. A long career and she deserves to retire!

I am begging Dems & progressives to stop starting every sentence w/ this bullshit framing that concedes to right wing lies. The Dept of Ed is good. I don't hate bureaucracy b/c that's how kids get services. And the federal gov't is efficient already. Just say "they are stealing your kids' education"

Sweetgreen sells fries now, that's America in 2025.

BREAKING — The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has just announced the closure of major regional offices in Philly, LA and Chicago, per email shared with me. “5 alarm fire,” SEC employee tells me. Full email text:

Good night, Bluesky.

Watching a cardinal chase another around a tree and yelling "no means no, Red!"

spotted this at the gay bar in NOLA over the weekend and i’ll never stop thinking about it as long as i live

It's minor in the scheme of things, but the way people just feel free to smoke on the CTA is not my favorite.

Let’s go www.yahoo.com/news/no-amaz...

Good night, Bluesky

My plea to all health journalists, doctors, health researchers, expert voices, and public health officials: Politicize public health, please. We won't have a shot at actually improving US health outcomes––nor at preserving any possibility of democracy––until we do. jacobin.com/2025/02/publ...

Hey man sorry to hear about all your political turmoil. Would it help if I scrolled around on the computer all day and drove myself insane?

You guys! I wrote a screenplay. It's called #DailyPublicBriefing

here’s a cool test to see if your country’s economy is good: walk to the grocery store and count how many unhoused people you see. anything greater than zero means your country is a failure in all ways.

This building in Chicago - designed by Mies Van der Rohe and with Calder's "Flamingo" out front - is the first mentioned in the article. Not just kicking out civil servants (while at the same time requiring them to come back to work), they're making way for the destruction of historical artifacts.

saying "go birds" but just rooting for birds in general, hope they're having fun and not catching that flu

ITS SHUT THE FUCK UP FRIDAY This is a very important message you should share with the people in your life that may be hitting the streets to protest: never talk to the police! WATCH:

Some stray thoughts I wanted to put...somewhere. -Banning trans people from playing sports means acknowledging they exist in the first place. They've previously said they only recognize two genders. Is this a belt/suspenders situation? Do they suspect they'll lose one or both of these fights?

just every day

Everything is terrible and I feel totally powerless but today my blue canary for the outlet by the lightswitch arrived.

Bit late for this, asshats.
