Learned what? You kill women and think you can get away with it? Well, you can’t kill all of us, that’s what I’ve learned.

I made soft-boiled eggs just soft enough to be impossible to peel without destroying them, go me.

Chicago people - my friend who I worked with this fall organizing whistle parties is collecting supplies for Minneapolis activists. Let her know if you can contribute.

You have really made some bad life choices if people from Minnesota get out bullhorns so they can taunt you loud enough for the whole neighborhood to hear when you get stuck in the snow.

I had that reoccurring dream again that I found a forgotten room in my apartment. It was a second kitchen - it had a sink full of dirty dishes, and was full of dead plants I had forgot to water. Ugh.

LOL at CCPSA referencing their Twitter account.

I'm watching this on Zoom and the accounts are damning and devastating, speaker after speaker accounting on how Chicago failed to act, and in fact allowed CPD to enable the ICE raids while hiding behind empty supposedly progressive rhetoric.

I think I saw this play before.

I have to attend two webinars today at work about immigration policy in 2026, so that is how my day is going.

Growing up, my parents taught me and my sisters that white folks who stand up against white supremacy and domination are always, always, ALWAYS punished and killed alongside the targets of white supremacist domination... this is yet another facet of its violence, and how/why white supremacy endures.

School has been cancelled tomorrow and Friday across the city of Minneapolis, because our federal government has made it unsafe for children here.

Do I know anyone going to soup and bread tonight? I need a little solidarity so I am thinking of stopping by on my way home

I had been saving a couple of shopping bags of whistle kits "just in case" if you know me and know anyone who needs them, hit me up.

Good, I've heard nothing good about the leadership at CHM.

This seems like a good time to remind you all I have T-shirts older than ICE, they are not an inevitability and can be abolished.

ICE reportedly shot someone at Portland and 33/34. Mspt saying bullets, could be less lethal 20+ agents on site, MPD and ambulances responding. Helicopters overhead

Gregory Bovino is basically Colonel Lockjaw from One Battle After Another.

It’s a “keep an eye out for chuds in rental cars” day here in Chicago. Grab your whistle, work near your window, take a walk at lunch

Yay, the guy with the full length green wool Gandalf wizard cape and a winter hat with a Pom Pom on top was on the bus again today.

Just saw three kids piled on a scooter careening down the street on the way to school

My cat just farted in my face and then left the room. WTF

A couple of mugs I made came out of the kiln finally.

I just heard the most heartbreaking interview on NPR with the brother of one of the police officers who was killed on January 6th. Damn, it was just so sad.

I'll be mad about this until I die

This is going to be good. @lefttheprairie.bsky.social , @lizzyisi.bsky.social , @elizabethgomez.bsky.social are just the bsky usernames I know, but a great group of folks to answer this question.

I just had my permanent crown cemented in and IT FEELS SO WEIRD.

There is a kid crying on the train this morning because she wanted to go to school and the mom didn’t realize there was no school today.

I have to go into the office tomorrow for the first time since December 23rd, please help me.

APSCA commercials, just stop being that way please.

Your cat, in the middle of the workday, will be like "I have a very important message to show you in the Secret Other Room" and then when you finally follow him to the other room, the message is "I am a cat"

All the children at this cookie party have morphed into teenagers in the past five years and it’s wild

This Trump "speech" is taking longer to wrap up than the Stranger Things finale.

Apparently we are running Venezuela now?

It’s a good thing Congress isn’t alive to see this

Noriega 2 Electric Boogaloo. Seriously though, what the fuck are we doing?

I really should not have glanced at my phone in the middle of the night.

Why would I want people with subject-matter expertise to outline complex subject matters for me when I can just get my news from some dude waiting on a train platform who shares my vibes.

I think I am now on ending number five?

So far I am on ending number three.

Finally watching the last episode of Stranger Things and can't wait to see all those endings people keep talking about. How many were there again?

Fata morgana! This morning at Montrose Point, this scene was visible across Lake Michigan on the southeast horizon.

Settling in to watch One Battle After Another tonight.

Finally got off the sofa to make soup

I had this grand plan yesterday to see a movie, stop by Nighthawk to wish an early happy new year to some friends and then go to a party. Needless to say that was a bit too much so I didn’t get to it all, but the movie and party were great.

It’s pretty rare that I am still awake at 2am for a good reason, but here we are. Happy New Year to everyone I had the pleasure to ring it with in person, and to all the rest of you who I love. 🎊

Happy New Year’s Chicago, Portland and LA. Protest works

Looks like I only have a few more hours left, nice knowing you all.

this is the midwest’s statue of liberty

I guess 20 minute headways on the @chicagocta.bsky.social Brown Line is how we are ending 2025

Just saw some dude on an electric scooter scooting down Irving Park Avenue in the snow with a death wish
