Every TikTok I see about Chicago, I post "Chicago is the greatest city in the world" and get a chorus of "hell yeah" replies. And you may ask yourself, why do people love Chicago so much? It's simple. Chicago is the greatest city in the world.

The CBS 60 Minutes Doc confirms what we knew: The U.S. is currently using our tax dollars to imprison brown people with no criminal record in torture camps overseas. It’s no wonder administration shill Bari Weiss pulled this off the air:

We observed lawyers from the Illinois Attorney General’s Office who showed up to wage theft court hearings unprepared. Since 1993, more than 300 cases were initially dismissed because no one from the Attorney General’s Office showed up at all. (with

Interesting 180° difference in how the Illinois AG handles wage theft versus, say, “organized retail theft,” which includes a multi-agency “task force,” $5 million per year to cops for spy tools, a PR machine, & tons of low-level arrests for property crimes, while biz owners stiff workers & walk.

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans.

I’d just add that several US citizens detained by the feds during protests—people never charged with a crime—also had dna samples collected and presumably catalogued. For what purpose, idk.

The conditions at the Broadview ICE Processing Center are INHUMANE, UNSAFE, INAPPROPRIATE, INADEQUATE. We will be back. And we will continue the oversight work until we hold Noem, Homan, Bovino, and DHS accountable.

A fantastic NYT report: Donors to Trump get pardons, jobs, & access - and benefited from regulatory decisions the Trump admin has made. SUPER timely as SCOTUS is about to kill agency independence & give POTUS more control over agencies (likely to donors' benefit)

Noah Kahan's secret TikTok account for his new album, an account he has made a total of four posts on and has not mentioned on main, has over 400k followers. This is definitely a leading indicator of seasonal depression but I am increasingly wondering if it is also an economic indicator

This rebranding predates Charlie Kirk’s death and was intended to sanitize Turning Point USA for schools. Then TPUSA had a name recognition crisis when they were in the news nonstop. So now I guess they’re rebranding again? Point is: same hard right politics packaged for children. Same fascism lite.

One thing that frustrates me about AI is that its "slickness" is ruining humor. All those terrible Trump AI images that reply guys think are funny? They are not! They are boring and corny! Meanwhile, this nonsense is hilarious:
