So I was browsing reddit and came across this post tinyurl.com/2yhym89j and honestly? Yeah, these benches are not great. Probably the worst design choice at the new stations. And a great reminder that anti-homeless architecture is also often anti-disabled/anti-elderly/anti-human architecture

This is completely a shot in the dark but does anyone know who and how I can contact regarding the Krambles-Peterson Archive? I want to verify usage rights before I use any of the images in future videos

THREE (3) PUBLIC TRANSPORTS

FINALLY!!!!!! I HAVE COMPLETED @playbalatro.com I am part of the 0.6%

Karina Villa protecting her constituents by literally running ICE off the streets in West Chicago and yelling to residents to stay inside their homes.

I should be doing GIS homework but instead I’m riding Metra for fun and that’s called self care 💅

after 65 months, CTA rail operations are back to full pre-pandemic staffing levels!

FINALLY!!!!!! I HAVE COMPLETED @playbalatro.com I am part of the 0.6%

Unlike most Chicagoans, I don’t root for the Bears I instead root for a different team that will inevitably disappoint 😐

no I did not do any research for a future video I was playing Balatro why do you ask

And yet whenever I try and tell people I technically live on an island, they say “who are you” and “I’m calling security” smh 🙄

62nd and Ellis, 2019 and 2025

it drives me insane when people say "times it" instead of "multiply"

Sent a letter in support of this common-sense upzoning adjacent to the recently renovated Red Line. This change will densify a vital transportation and commercial corridor within the city, which will provide more housing, support local businesses and careers, and strengthen communities.

I guess the benefit of my Halloween special becoming less Halloween themed means I don't *have* to get it out in October, although I'm still gonna try to.

Youtube wants to compete with TikTok with short form content but can't even make their shorts page function lmao

Another reason we should build a mountain on top of Naperville

Chicago forever

Words cannot describe the level of hypocrisy and insanity of this. This is the President essentially declaring war on an entire city - fascist authoritarian behavior. I think what pisses me off the most is how quickly Republicans would be up in arms if a Dem did this. Its fucking infuriating.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Why are people on YouTube so obsessed with my facial hair lol

Despite the stigma that Chicago is a crime-ridden and dangerous place, Chicago’s tourism is up. For eight years in a row, Chicago has been voted the “Best Big City in the U.S” by Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards. thetriibe.com/2025/08/trum...

And I would never want to get between Ted and a trip to Cancun when there’s an emergency in Texas

I’m always surprised at how consistently busy the 147 gets, especially during non-traditional peak hours Case in point: this 11am trip with almost every seat taken by the time it gets on LSD

I have Sybil brain rot 🧙‍♀️ #art #digitalart #cute #drawing #doodle #sketch #witch

I’ve said it a million times: We’re not perfect, but we’re a damn good city - definitely not one in need of “saving” by right-wing lunatics.

My Carl Sandburg train tonight is being pulled by a long distance Charger ALC-42, and also features a baggage car!

A Sybil for your troubles #art #digitalart #cute #drawing #doodle #sketch

losing my mind

I visited Metra’s least used station. Both of them, in fact! youtu.be/TGf2q_-6pPs

gmail's search functionality is so useless

Me watching everyone ride the new Avelia trains tomorrow

I finished it second day of classes 🫡 Dropping on Friday most likely

Last semester we were talking about the upcoming fiscal cliff in my classes, and it's insane I'm starting the next semester and it's still an issue. Fund Chicagoland transit.

the need to finish this video before i start school again tomorrow versus the urge to play balatro versus the primal need to ride buses and trains for fun

I am 10 jokers away from achieving Completionist++ in Balatro!

Orange Line

Party of small government, everyone. Regardless of how you feel about or if you consume explicit content, this should ring alarm bells as government censorship of whatever they decide is “obscene”. This administration continues to follow the authoritarian playbook step by step.

whoever did this on wplace i love you 147 my beloved, BRT on LSD now!

Metra's BNSF line is so busy, they're adding even more rush hour express trains and off-peak trains. Now imagine if every person who took the train drove instead - traffic would unsustainably skyrocket Trains are more efficient and effective at moving people and connecting communities

I started researching stuff for a potential Halloween "scary" transit-themed video, but as I continued to research I realized giving the video a different vibe would work better Still gonna try and get it out around Halloween, but I'm wondering if I should still bill it as a Halloween special 🤔

this might be a hot take but the X9 and X49 should not be called Express buses, they should be called Limited buses, since it just makes fewer (limited) stops Express implies a large section of bypassing stops or area, like the 146 or 147

Even cats know the benefits of public transport! This is some incredible stuff

Second Balatro run of the day and I get *two* Soul cards 😎

A map of Great Lakes superiority

And here's the sprite in motion ^^
