These are concentration camps and its our duty as citizens to ensure these things don't get built.

Today's bike riding in the sun and warmer temps was so fun!

Police in Bloomington, MN just announced that one of the guys they arrested in an underage sex trafficking sting was a **background checker for ICE agents.** He had a high security clearance in the Trump administration... and he was caught trying to abuse children. Sickening.

If you put bike lanes everywhere in the city, it stops being viewed as a symbol of gentrification. They stop becoming an "amenity" that brings better personal safety and higher quality of life. If one person said a new road with speed bumps would bring gentrification, they'd sound ridiculous.

This is why it's helpful to call it "car storage" instead of "parking."

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Lost my license once again. Grabbed my current read for the train ride downtown

Hopefully before 2030 the crimes of the low density around the Berwyn Red line stop will be righted. The huge surface lot for the shopping center by the Howard stop must be converted to housing as well if we're really serious about increasing housing supply.

“The Red Line Extension will boost density” the entire Dan Ryan branch is <20 feet tall, let’s start there.

This bridge builder is a fool! No one crosses the river here!

I'll be there

Illegal parking haters, we need to organize!

It's the audacity for me!!

I didn't keep going North of Lawrence but it looked like it had been cleared and salted South of there, so hopefully they did the whole thing! bsky.app/profile/vikt...

Haven't needed to travel on Clark south of Devon but something tells me the bike lane in the quoted tweet looks better than Clark St. in Edgewater

Alright, who are the four other people ahead of me on the holds list for this? 👀

What a great visualization--while ridership is still far below 2019, it's notable that, especially ex-winter, 2025 saw meaningful growth over 2024

Loved seeing a Tern buddy at the store last night. Jewel off Chicago Ave in Evanston

I've been wondering what the average bus speed is for Chicago's buses since Active Transportation Alliance conducted their Bus Report Card study. Considering the growth in cars in Chicag, I'm not at all surprised by this pathetic speed for an "express" bus.

What if they could make em like this again?

I actually enjoyed biking in the snow earlier today. Took Clark St instead of side streets in my part of Rogers Park and it was fine. Felt like I was riding in a snow globe.

Called one car in for blocking the crosswalk and came home to see three cars ticketed🥳🥳

Very grateful for my intuition. I avoided at least three wipeouts in the Clark St bike lane tonight.

That Evanston/Chicago border continues to reveal which city cares about clear sidewalks in the winter and which one doesn't

It was very tempting to work from home today so I could admire the waves. 😭😭

I think this is the first time I'm seeing a political candidate run on reducing cancer rates in the U.S., and it's sorely needed.

I really wish we didn't terminate the bike lane at bus stops.

A bike lane is only as good as its weakest link and wow are the Clark St. bike lanes between Winnemac and Montrose weak AF at the bus stops. There were 3 parked cars at the bus stop and within the bike lane at 4898 N Clark. I really Chicago had a bounty program for parking violations.

Fell in love with this sink and vowed to watch more YouTube videos about beautiful Japanese public bathrooms when I got home 😂😂🤓

First checkout of the year and I noticed this in my receipt email 👀 Okay, I see you @chipublib.bsky.social

First time missing a RTA survey😭 I wanted to brag on Metra a little bit

Excellent bike lane maintenance for the Clark St protected lanes 🙄 Clark & Leland going northbound

Incredible halo around the moon minutes before midnight. An auspicious omen for 2026!

The amount of drivers blasting through stop signs tonight is deeply disturbing

I’m cat sitting for someone with a good view of that parking lot on Morse between Paulina and Clark and every time I see that lot I boil with anger. Rogers Park needs more housing and we’re wasting valuable space to store cars. The lot isn’t even a quarter of the way full right now. What a waste!!

Even with slowing down for the snow it’s faster to bike than use the CTA. I wish this wasn’t the case.

Is this a CDOT issue or a CDOT and aldermanic discretion issue? Neither? Damen and Lawrence has a concrete barrier around the bike lane. Great. Love it. The 5700 block of Ashland where cars regularly go 50mph does not have a concrete barrier around the bike lane. Currently there is no bike lane.

Why is Wilson so wide between Damen and Western?!

Purposefully left my kitchen window down. This was the reading after the oven finished preheating. Just opened a window. I’ll add a window fan in like ten minutes

Nerding out at the club

😂😂

It’s pretty homophobic there’s no Western BRT to help all the Rogers Park queers get to Dorothy in a reasonable amount of time via CTA

CDOT is back on their bullshit: roping off bike lanes without warning signage 🙄🙄 Bullshit starts at Clark at Winnemac both directions.

I wrote this piece for NABSA based on what we’re seeing with Divvy. Treating bikeshare as essential transportation & backing it up with real policy & investment has delivered results: higher ridership, system stability, stronger equity outcomes & stable pricing in Chicago nabsa.net/2025/12/18/d...

Still seeing way too many cars that haven’t moved since the record snowfall, at the very least. Car storage is such a poor use of public streets!!!

My core principles for fixing Chicagos budget - we need to change the structure of municipal revenue - we need to look at spending and we can't do that without a full analysis of the CPD budget - we need to commit to a budget structure that will allow city govt to expand

Hey ChicagoSky, Cinnamon is a great and loving dog who just went through a very rough time. If you are someone who can support good routines, please consider having an extra friend around for the holidays.
