Help a father released from ICE detainment get back to his family in Columbus Ohio! Who do you know that is headed that way? Can we daisychain a ride to Chicago, and from there to Columbus? If we know each other, please DM me.

Loaves and Witches just won Chicago Reader's Best Coffee Shop!! Building a small business in Chicago is not for the faint of heart — the permitting alone could be a psychological thriller — and watching someone do it with this much care and craft has changed how I think about "local institutions".

Illinoisans, if you've got a vote by mail ballot, you should fill it out this weekend and mail it. Otherwise early voting sites have a drop box. If you're early voting do it this weekend! Next weekend is where you'll see the longest lines.

A fraudulent “Illinois Circuit Court – Hearing Notice” is circulating and falsely requiring payment for unpaid parking charges. The Court does not accept payment via QR code. I haven't seen a copy of the fake notice so i can't describe it!

I’m voting for Toni Preckwinkle because she solves big problems. Being able to wipe away this much medical debt will help lift people out of poverty and inject money into our local economy that would otherwise go to big corporations.

We should also start making plans well in advance of any election to help friends who need it to get a ride to the polls. Preferably early in those states that have early voting.

One thing I have always resented about working for an impoverished NPO is that I can only go to conferences when I'm invited to speak or some foundation is underwriting the whole thing. I actually find them interesting and valuable & miss out on all of them.

filling in my ballot. Only two judicial primaries on my ballot are contested. One has 2 indistinguishable candidates & one has one who has been working the room for this for a long time. All appear to be competent lawyers & well-behaved professionals. Hope I continue to have the right to vote.

The Kansas driver license thing is just the sublimation of every time I've said that we should be abolishing the gender marker instead of allowing it to be changed or having an "X" gender marker. Like how do you think they had a list of people to mail that notice to ahead of time?
