Seen in Minneapolis

Even more than I like Chicago having free things, I like it when things are free for city residents only. This is a Garfield Park Conservatory shout out. Other side benefit is fewer people trying to do photo shoots for the gram.

Many are saying.

Not many people have started a ride for their birthday, and after a few years, built a tradition that's attracted over 200 riders - but that's one of the many great stories from Pookie, our latest guest! (full interview linked below 👇)

Even though it was 60 degrees, 50 miles was a mistake.

Mass Friday. Who’s riding?

We need to contract this 90+ school district number. This remains the single biggest waste of money in Illinois education. Greater than charter schools, even.

I don't get paid enough to watch this CPS board meeting. But here we are anyway.

Keep sharing right wing misogyny posts, it's healthy & smart to export the misogyny & spread it around. We're all shocked by how bad right wingers are to women because we're brand new to the internet too. You fucking losers. Please stop importing the worst posts you can find.

Many are saying.

Why did I watch any of that? That was really stupid of me, and I deserve this pain.

Mass Friday. Who’s riding?

This is me again calling on god wherever she is to abolish the Board of Review. Let Fritz cook.

Men: it’s all of our jobs to say nothing about women’s sports except they’re awesome to watch. And to tell any man who tries to talk about anything else to shut the fuck up.

Red delicious apples. I’ll eat anything. But red delicious aspires to be garbage.

Just checking - y'all know we're on YouTube, right? 👀 We've got a back catalog of 30 full interviews up there, plus some rolling interviews riding around the city! youtu.be/KXyEAy-88pY?...

I will drop my bike off in Lincoln Park for Babski fix and terrorize delivery robots. Sickos dot gif

again no surprise my alder voted against. as far as I can tell he wishes his constituents wouldn't walk or cycle at all so they don't have to die directly in front of his office and he doesn't have to feign concern and ultimately do bupkis about it

Hey Southside Chicago! Sign up to reserve your own free baby fruit, nut, and/or wildlife-supporting trees from Washington HS's & Kenwood Academy HS's Tree Giveaways. Visit either or both partnered events on Saturday, March 14th.

Can confirm, this is an upgrade from the previous! Love the mesh netting and inside pocket!

WOMENS SPORTS MATTER! Thank you for listening.

I need a secondary reason to visit Lincoln Park beyond having @babski.bsky.social working on my bike.

I am tired of working in direct service for a government agency and being lectured by non-profit employees on what it means to have and live your values.

It's not fair to call platforms like TikTok and Instagram social media when they intentionally hide content from the people you mean to stay connected/interact with. Facebook & Twitter were social media, but now they are reddit/digg: content aggregators for time wasting.

The Guillotine.

As a person whose job it is to use data in very targeted ways and to teach people to use data meaningfully, when people tell me AI is the future…lol. lmao.

Punch people wearing Meta glasses. Got it.

I am so proud of and happy for my neighbors Arlene and Maya, and dozens of others who supported this effort to save the derelict Elim Lutheran Church in Roseland. It truly was down to the wire: the building was about to face a city demo order when folks came together to make a fresh future for it.

this is important, please sign this Lily was designated as an Intended User of the road, perhaps the first fatality recorded as such. we really need cyclists to be elevated to intended user of the road and neuter that disastrous Baub vs County of Wayne decision

This is good life advice for everyone.

I know I’ll probably feel better later, but I’m still cold from biking this morning.

Breakdancing, obviously.

I'm talking about "The Uptown: Chicago's Endangered Movie Palace" at 5:45 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 17, to the Chicago Chapter of the Society of Architectural Historians at Kyle’s Place (office building attached to St. James Cathedral), 65 E. Huron St., Chicago. It's free and open to all. chicagosah.org

only 11 days until 5:30pm sunset, Chicago. hang in there

Look, if they don't like the comparison, maybe they should take off their hoods.

There is no sicko gif perverted enough to describe how badly I want this.

Why aren’t there more likes on this post? As a former literacy teacher, this is gold.

Good news, my new jacket shipped. Get yours before it’s too late.

If you marry a fascist, you too are a fascist.

We need ALL of #BikeChi to come out for the Committee on Pedestrian and Traffic Safety Complete Streets Monday 2/9 at 1pm. We've been keeping close tabs on our haters and we know they're planning to pack this meeting. Let's show them whose streets these are. Feedback: airtable.com/appzWPBWupXr...

Gonna pass on the one kind of computer program that is bad at math, thanks.

Whoa. I’m watching the game on Peacock, and all my commercials are different. Weird.

Another benefit of watching primarily women’s Olympic events is also having more women who played the sport announcing, rather than just some guy who talks.

Chicago forever problems for now (left today, right yesterday)

NEW — Chicago Black Restaurant Week, which lasts from Feb. 8 to 22, features over 30 Black-owned businesses across the city and neighboring suburbs. New additions this year include Sanders BBQ Supply Co. in Beverly and CheSa’s Bistro in Avondale. thetriibe.com/2026/02/chic...

Me with my notary license and similar credentials. Lfg notary party

Martinez ends her testimony with this: "If there's not justice for the people, let there be no peace for the government."

As part of recent personal experience, I am begging white people who are non-profit employees to read this list and realize that most people who are white non-profit employees sit in the connecting part of the venn diagram for these 5 things.

Cool, another way for the US government to subsidize slop and misinformation. Cool, cool. Cool, cool, cool.
