If you live in Illinois, YOU (yes you) have an important angle on how the Maine Senate race is shaping up. One of the candidates who has been mentioned as a possible option is Nirav Shah who recently ran for governor. Shah was state health director during the Quincy Legionnaires outbreak.

Why is she the cutest 😩🤼‍♂️🤼‍♀️

Silo S3 is off to a fantastic start! One episode a week is going to be rough... #silo #appletv

Pizza with some of my favorite family members tonight! Woo hoo 🥳

The past weekend saw another round of severe storms hitting the Chicagoland area. The rain only added to what has already been a wet year. Applications are now open for municipalities and local government: mwrd.org/stormwater/partnerships. Learn more: mwrd.org/news/mwrd-storm-report-11-am

Billy, this is the Azteca. It’s a stadium in Mexico City. It’s one of the most underrated venues in world football. Its only defect is that it’s actively trying to kill you.

don’t love that wendella’s tour boat is flying a christian nationalist flag if you needed a reason to recommend literally any other architectural tour boat operator

I love this guy. He's Bob Newhart for the 21st C.

The McCook system has filled 6 times this year. It filled 5 times total between 2021 and 2025?! Climate change wtfff 🤢

FUCK

“Boutros singled out Cook County State’s Attorney Eileen O’Neill Burke for being a good partner in prosecuting criminals.”

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

I COULD be watching the world cup but I'd rather be watching John Oliver appear as a guest part on General Hospital 👀

TIL that from 1961 to 2009 there was a bowling alley in Antarctica (at McMurdo station) and it used penguin-themed pins.

I need those two guys singing their hearts out to Mistico's theme as a gif immediately 😂❤️ #aewcollision

Let's go Rina! #aewcollision

Is that new video for Shida? Kickass! #aewdynamite

The Mexican national team is just watching the Great British Bake Off Mexico episode on repeat all week long.

The ‘dog days’ of summer get their name due to their association with the Dog Star, Sirius, found in the constellation Canis Major. The first visible rising of Sirius occurs during the hot stretch from early July to early September. Woof.

HELL yeah

As called on TV Trece in Paraguay:

BYE BYE GERMANS

You know the saying: soccer* is a simple game, 22 men chase a ball for 120 minutes and at the end of the day, the Paraguayans always win.

Every few months, I'm reminded that many of you are unaware that I sometimes publish books and others are unaware of my many zines. So I have decided to offer quarterly reminders, LOL. You can find some of my publications here: www.haymarketbooks.org/authors/854-...

Michael Cembalest is out with his annual energy report for JP Morgan and it's full of fascinating stuff, but this graph jumps out: Trump is succeeding in stifling America's clean energy boom. Absolutely ceding the field to China.

I don't want to hear another word about how much white European visitors are enjoying ranch dressing while team officials, Africa's top referee, and now one of the world's most celebrated fans are turned away from the World Cup. The USA is an utterly unfit host — it's as simple as that

The printed "windows" look like they were lifted directly off of Chicago's Soldier Field.

Lol what is going on

“How much is a magical world worth?” A beautiful thread about Cabo Verde, the Peace Corps, and the World Cup:

It is amazing how well tamales hold up when they're frozen! Wowowow

Two ICE agents tracked down a woman *inside a polling place* yesterday. Why? They demanded that she take down an Instagram post in which she named Jonathan Ross as the man who shot & killed Renee Good (after the Star Tribune identified Ross). www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

@mayorofchicago.bsky.social’s office has asked me to delete this thread because I misstated that the city wants to sell the meter company. In fact, he secretly torpedoed a winning bid to buy the meters back and won’t say why. blockclubchicago.org/2026/06/24/w...

puppy bus on break

also not lost on me that as democratic socialists are winning some elections, a new red scare targeting anarchists, antifascists, and their allies is digging in hard, and today handed down 30, 50, and 100 year prison sentences to activists and organizers

Nah. Instead we’ll use your resources wrest the party out of your useless centrist milquetoast cowardly corrupt self-serving establishment hands and remake it into a party that we can be proud of filled with people who will actually fight for us. You’re scared and we’re gonna win. Sucks to suck.
