An update from the NWS on the potential snow event. Read it. One key: “…As a result, the expectation is for the lake effect snow bands to be unusually intense with peak snow rates of 3 to locally 5 inches per hour, frequent lightning and thunder, and pockets of hail.” #ILwx #Chicago #ChicagoWX

Members of the community argue with federal officers during an immigration enforcement action in the Little Village neighborhood Saturday in Chicago.

I don’t know how to explain it, but Notre Dame’s helmets look like the wrong color gold // #CFB

Heads up for winter weather tomorrow (Sunday) night into Monday. Lake effect snow bands are very hard to pinpoint, but the ingredients for a big snow event seem to exist. As usual with winter weather, the question is whetehr or not all those ingredients mix together the right way. #ILwx #ChicagoWX

One thing I have marveled at is the way that crowds have been disciplined in capturing immigration enforcement’s lack of discipline.

What is the point of negotiating if you don’t try to stop this with the leverage you have. Why is this not being talked about. We are under attack every single day

Suburban moms protesting peacefully and being arrested outside Broadview.

remember: they will not even let Illinois' two SENATORS in to witness what they are doing inside. it's the blackest of black sites in an evil regime of ethnic cleansing

I will say what’s interesting about these buildings is that they are aping prewar industrial architecture more than residential—there actually really aren’t many multifamily buildings that look like this from the early 20th century in Chicago

Yeah, guys...there's motorcycles

I certainly hope every outlet reporting on future DHS statements notes their documented history of lies, including a federal judge repeatedly saying they are liars.

These people are sociopaths

LOOK AT HER GO, AGAIN, UNDER THE FULL MOON

Took a very crunchy walk tonight 🍂

Congratulations to my friends in New York. Now can we please shift the focus to Chicago? (These items are all from today.)

There are soooo many small daycares in Chicago. That line has now been crossed. They have turned safe places for babies, toddlers, and young children into targets.

A sneak peek at some of the photos that'll be in my 2026 calendar.

Absolutely despicable

side note: whenever I see "IT: Welcome To Derry" advertised on the streaming apps it takes me a second to remember that it's not a Derry Girls spinoff, and then i think that it should be a Derry Girls spinoff.

Hell yeah, brother.

This was horrific to watch. Agents entering a daycare, wrestling with and abducting a teacher in front of small screaming children. I just… what the fuck are we doing here.

This UPS plane crash in Louisville is awful.

Oh shit. Something very bad in direction of Louisville airport.

A Border Patrol agent was caught on video telling another to throw tear gas “for fun,” according to a court filing. They also mocked protesters and residents who were getting gassed.

Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest. The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says. "I could smell the onions and mustard."

You'll take the Wild Card and you'll LIKE IT!

📸 Have you heard: Autumn Chicago #Chicago #photography

Looks like that salmon is doing a spit take, understandably.

95. People should look at their phones less often, in general. You're at dinner and your friend goes to the bathroom? It's ok to look around the room! Check out what people are wearing. How is the waitstaff doing? Do you like the light fixtures?

I had a delightful walk around Graceland Cemetery yesterday and got to fully enjoy nature's fireworks (the changing of the leaves) while the sun was out. Highly recommended if you're in Chicago.

The incredible @briancassella.bsky.social got an outstanding pic of the “I’m a tough guy!” guy from yesterday.

Millennium Park is doing the fall thigns 🍂🍁 Happy Halloween!

Every once in a while I’ll watch a movie from the turn of the century (yes I said it) and I’m totally shocked when I learn it came out before 9/11 - such a dividing line in my elder millennial life. Watching ‘The Sixth Sense’ and can’t believe it came out in 1999. Knew it was of that era, but still

Others have already spoken to this, but a major element of Midway Blitz is the admin signaling that nothing and nowhere is sacred. Holidays, graveyards, school campuses, churches, homes. Nothing is off limits to the roving bands of masked, heavily armed strangers who say they're here to save us.
