Ok I think I’m going to mass for the first time in likeeee a year tonight lol

my favorite part of city cycling is casually passing my family members' old houses. like one time femmes and thems passed my grandma's birthplace in pilsen and the riders waved to the current homeowners sitting on their deck

I forgot how awful it is to leave the Aragon after a concert

I fucking love pressing “revise and resubmit” on a subcontractors shitty shop drawings man.

I just got on with my psychiatrist and she said since I had therapy this morning that insurance wouldn’t cover my apt so we had to move my appointment. The USA is so whack

AI ruined my day today by analyzing my blood test results and seeing a slightly low iron # and added a diagnosis to my chart for “abnormal level of heavy metals in blood” causing me to have a panic attack lol

Perks of having GI issues: when your doctor needs a stool sample, you can give her one on the spot Cons: you have to give a stool sample

Things that can turn me into an alcoholic: having to commute 4 hours to get to a concert in Rosemont

Does anyone know of an interesting course in Chicago that teaches you skills in visual or verbal storytelling?

No, im concerned about what is happening here on earth personally

How do you fine people of Bluesky recommend a girl get to the Florence and The Machine concert at the all state arena in Rosemont on transit

I tried to explain to somebody about why sometimes people on bikes do things drivers might not understand in order to ensure our own survival and was informed that we are not actually entitled to survival. Which felt kind of aggressive. #BikeSky

Where are all the zionists crying out today about Israel bombing a synagogue being antisemitic???

Help! Talk me out of rage quitting my job! Lol

If the world is ending I’m down

Every time I see an article about archer avenue I want to kms

IF JEWS RAN THE WORLD WHY IS TRUMP GIVING AN ADDRESS DURING THE PASSOVER SEDER

This Passover, my Jewish identity calls me to remember that our story of liberation is not just history — it’s a responsibility.

What are some techniques you use to feel hope every single day instead of despair (asking for a friend)

Idk how to exist lol

Another week another eyebrow pluck

I shaved my pits for the first time since like August simply bc the pit hair didn’t go with my very feminine outfit today

It’s actually inhumane

I know I’m not hearing them for real because I left my laptop at the office, but I keep hearing teams messages in my apartment rn and I’m maybe going crazy

General observation about myself: I have an aversion to doing things unless I deeply understand the importance of doing that thing

I’m so tired

If more progressives knew that Holly Kim is a literal crypto shill, I think it could have tipped this into a decisive victory for Villa www.lakecountynewsdispatch.com/2025/01/01/h...

Blame the owners who don’t want to use durable materials and provide the programming in the first place. Or blame the city for their building and zoning codes.

And on top of everything, most people who aren’t working in building systems genuinely believe that design work is too expensive. That what we do isn’t worth their money. And that’s where all of this comes from at the end of the day.

The reality is that buildings are COMPLEX. Architects and all types of engineers and contractors are VITAL to the team. As an architect, it is my job to make sure that all of the disciplines are working together so that contractors don’t run into any problems in the field. We are the conductors.

I’m doing CA on a project right now at the contractors don’t know how to read our drawings or specs so kindly shut up

Raise your hand if you thought architects get paid well bro

Then why am I modeling and detailing fucking pipe fittings, drainage systems, sidewalk joints, structural details, lighting layouts, etc on a daily basis? Why am I running all of the coordination meetings and keeping agendas and notes and figuring out every single problem by myself?

7-11 has said that on average, one of their stores in the USA is hit by a car every day of the year… let that sick in.

Holy fuck Lost Girls Vintage had their storefront destroyed by a driver plowing right through it. Fortunately they were closed and nobody was hurt. But nah, we don't need to do anything first safer streets in Chicago. www.instagram.com/p/DWCTlJ3Dkg...

Kat Abughazaleh used her campaign to try a lot of things that the party should been embracing a long time ago. The entire left coalition is better off because she ran.

Midwesterners have a sixth sense for bullshitters. We sent Raja packing.
