I'm told you would know the date, time and place for the ribbon cutting for the South Shore Line Monon Corridor. Supposedly March 17 at Hammond Gateway, but I'm looking for confirmation and a time.

I put my bike in the basement when I got home from the gym today and I think it’ll stay there for a few days. I can walk to the gym with my hood on and hands in my pockets, and the only other places I have to go through Tuesday, I can take the bus. I realize this makes me a wuss. 🥶🚲🚲🚲

Immigration enforcement is a police matter only in rare instances. It is never a military matter. We must de-militarize immigration enforcement, and de-militarize the police. Create a Catch-22: Anyone who wants to work for ICE or the police so they can be a bad-ass like in the movies, we don’t want.

“Missing middle” is good - but the headline is bad. This is in Chicago, and there’s a photo of Black people, so it’s a “housing project.” If it was in some candy-ass suburb with a photo of white people, it would be a “development.”

The reason everything is so bad is because the richest people own the politicians, they own the essential services and while they are in control of them they will get richer and everyone else will get poorer It's a difficult problem but it's not complicated They must be removed
