It's the Spring fundraising drive for @chirpradio.org! Help ensure the future for the best darn community radio station in Chicago! chirpradio.app.neoncrm.com/fundraiser/a...

I'm so much under the microscope at work that because I spent time solving a problem around the dev system instead of fixing the dev system ( not part of what was requested of me) my boss is questioning my decision making. I spent maybe an hour on the workaround that's not final product.

Getting hailed on in the loop

Gas is expensive and bike commuting is fun! If you’re considering it, buy from your local shop. It’s not just a bike but also a long term care relationship. I will gladly give you local recommendations (but I struggle with west side, south west locations) Obvi number 1 is Tailwind in Albany Park

I will help you turn your car commute into a bike commute. Finding a chill route, fixing your bike up, making your butt not hurt - whatever is holding you back, we can hurdle it.

I love democracy and wished we lived in one!!! unfortunately...

" In 2019, it became apparent from the latest research that male advantage isn’t removed by testosterone suppression" is a lie by him. That is not what the research found. The research has consistently found that trans women are on an equal footing if not a disadvantage under the old IOC requirement

Reminder that Raja sucks. Early voting is open now! Go pick someone else, ideally Robin Kelly!

🙏 I love me some lake-based regex

Please sign this petition for proactive inspections of rental properties. Think about the drafty, moldy shitholes you’ve rented and how nice it would’ve been for the city to see the way your landlord lets you live.

Lake forever, river for now

Lake forever, stock market chaos for now.

The thing I learned from the last time gas was $5 was that I have no idea what the gas prices are going to be in a year, up or down. I'd have guessed they were never going below $4 then.

Gonna double down with a reminder that if you post a screenshot of text from an article you should alt text it & link to the fucking article!!!! If you found it on the internet you should share the link!!! Do not force me to Nancy Drew my way back to the source by triangulating fonts w/news outlets.

Christo & Jeanne-Claude, "Wall of Oil Barrels—The Iron Curtain" (1961–62), an installation of stacked oil barrels that completely blocked the historic rue Visconti, one of the narrowest streets in Paris, and slowed traffic through the city's Left Bank

lake forever bike also forever

Lincoln Park is just one big ring camera.

If you genuinely believed you were 18 months from building a superintelligence that could cure cancer, you probably wouldn't pivot the entire company to horny chatbots. But I'm just a person with priorities. Maybe the path to solving death really does go through AI girlfriends. I don't have an MBA.

was like why am I so tired.... oh yes..... my ancient enemy...... daylight savings

Chicago forever problems for now

This documentary was very interesting, especially comparing it to our own governments attempt at propaganda. It's at the Siskel theater a few more days. www.theguardian.com/film/2026/ma...

Another person I have learned a ton from about civil rights work highlighted that this work is always political but it's not partisan. Perhaps a Democratic primary is a distillation of the partisan in partisan politics and that feels like a sharp contrast to the politics that's been lighting us up.

A pass for Toulouse's bikeshare system (managed by the transit authority) costs 2 euros for a day or 26 euros for a year, each with unlimited free 30 min rides <3

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.

George, lead instructor of election judge training class has done every class taken for the last decade. He's been 'retired' that entire time.

Lake water and river water meet at wolf point.

I mean, shit, after the South Sea Company bubble, we just outlawed corporations. We did it before, we can do it again.

"SHIT" "FUCK" "NO" "FUCK" "SHIT" "FUCK"

San Francisco level fog at the lake right now, with sun shining on top of it.

The CTU are basically the leftist Illuminati the way republicans running as democrats talk about them

When some Republican insists this isn't a war, why not ask "oh, so like how Vietnam wasn't a war? Or like how Afghanistan wasn't a war? Or Iraq?"

Fog forever, problems for now

No one gives a fuck. Go away forever Rahm.

This coming Saturday the 7th! Noon-5pm! We're hosting a Book Fair with Three Avenues! Come on by and get literate with it!

when you win a small concession you just get to keep yelling btw. one time a local official said to me "you people are never happy" and like: correct! it is not our job to be happy with compromise! it's our job to be annoying forever actually

It’s a good day to kick the ass of the ruling class.

Took tomorrow off to ride bikes with my wife. Brain so big it's pushing against the inside of my skull rn. Might fuck around and put the pup in the puppy trailer 👀

A statewide nonprofit I'm working with is trying to raise another $1mil for funding capacity building and federal reactions. It's a big lift and going to take a lot of work, but they can do it. It's also a little more than 2 CoP hours for Chicago.

Too late to change a plan, but when an alder didn't like feedback they got on an already installed safer intersection it got ripped out. 🤔

There is a large body of public administration research and public agency implementation studies that someone should have read to figure out what this report is supposed to be and how agencies and their staff should use it to shift what they do, how they do it and their capacity to do it.

It will never not blow my mind that I’m a YouTuber who won’t accept money from, like Better Help or whatever bc I find it unethical and meanwhile all these multimillionaire Oscar winners are doing spots for online gambling and TurboTax. Like bro how much coke do you need

There are three state level candidates sponsored by DraftKings - Jaime Andrade, Adam Braun, and Sara Feigenholtz - and all three have either no showed or won't agree to a debate. A pattern emerges.
