You can’t put a price on posting

Schlitz (run by Uihlein) built so many tied house taverns, wagon houses and ancillary buildings (~80) in Chicago that for a time, they were the city's largest landowner.

rude. in my day we called that Italo-disco.

As a follow-up to my earlier David Wojnarowicz post, here's something to keep in mind in coming years: a statement from Wojnarowicz—relayed by artist Zoe Leonard—about the importance of embracing beauty in difficult times (via @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social's "Orwell's Roses" bsky.app/profile/rebe...)

I hope they start accepting refugees from the US. We have enough internally displaced people that it should set off some alarm bells.

RIP to my favorite dive bar beer, a true legend, the beer that made Milwaukee famous. This is a genuine bummer. www.jsonline.com/story/money/...

If you were going to Louisville for the first time, where would you eat and drink? What else would you do? I grabbed a couple Old Forester tour spots but can adjust that.

this is the last photo on my parents' video birdfeeder before it was mysteriously destroyed we may never know what happened

I still believe we should just learn to live with our typos and bizarre autocorrects

Whiskey drink Vodka drink Lager drink Cider drink Songs that remind him of the good times Songs that remind him of the better times

the Democratic party would enjoy much broader support if they stopped cloning The Dad From 'Get Out' to flood everyone's mentions with smuggest, most self congratulatory dogshit takes the world has ever seen

don't know why anyone thinks they can say this without coming across like an entire ass but it keeps happening

Ideal microblogging

If you feel compelled to insist again and again that a group of people are misunderstanding their lived reality, maybe you’re actually just being an ally to yourself and not to them

TRANS WOMAN: i'm in distress CIS LIBERAL: no you aren't :) if you look here you actually aren't

That no one privy to or involved in discussing, building, and using *isolation cells for schoolchildren* stopped to ask: “hm, is this … okay?”

saw this on an ACT UP poster from 1988 at the Poster House museum today. the more things change :)

Lake forever city for now

One day, I’m going to pull into the parking lot and get a proper picture of the Best Cutting Die sign, maybe with the Wi-Fi Building in the background

Jesus. Vote the whole lot of them out.

I just want to know who feels like they were socialized as anything other than a series of othering childhood traumas.

easily one of my favorite tweets of all time

Spotted on Tumblr…

Ray Lopez when a poor does a crime: “😡😤 We should murder everyone ever associated with this individual” Ray Lopez when 13 time convicted felon Ed Burke offers him money: “🤑🤑 Thank you, my beloved mentor — May I reintroduce the “Ed Burke Day” resolution, if it pleases you? 🙂‍↕️🫡”

This pretty much counts as a mass displacement which would substantiate an objective historical narrative of an ongoing transgender democide

I bet this Goose would remain undeterred

“Use AI or get left behind!” Please, leave me behind. Drop me off on the side of the road somewhere. Sentence me to a remote cabin with a typewriter and some wildflowers that don’t know how to use the internet

I went to the University of North Dakota on an academic scholarship that covered in-state tuition for the top 5% of students in the state. The town reeked of sugar beet processing but the college had an art museum, an annual writer’s conference, and top engineering & aerospace programs.

I’m obsessed with this photo I took of Grizz today where it looks like he’s smiling.

quite an admission from douglas maclean, the sheriff tom dart's deputy chief information officer, during today's cook county board criminal justice committee hearing:

A new investigation by @injusticewatch.org reporter @danhinkel.bsky.social revealed that Cook County prosecutors are challenging efforts by wrongfully convicted individuals to clear their names and secure compensation.

This was good. @amybrown.xyz talks through her own parenting insecurities and the reality that a) kids want dino nuggies because they have the option, and b) parenting is happening downstream of centuries of fraught food discourse

I was just thinking about how politicians and pundits seem to take turns with the inalienable rights from the Declaration of Independence. We’re constantly asked to denounce either life, liberty, or the pursuit of happiness to uphold those values

I do think it’s funny that in a way I’m harder than every one of those motherfuckers who gave me grief for crying when a dog died in a movie

Every conservative mayoral candidate ever: THIS CITY IS A SHITHOLE AND I HATE IT

Chad Johnson is CEO of 'Grain Weevil'. His son did robotics competitions in high school, which inspired this little fella that breaks up hardened surfaces & levels grain to ensure it behaves like a liquid, avoids clumping. This probably saves 10-30 human lives a year. NO BOOTS IN THE GRAIN.

Every time I teach the MOVE bombing, students are shocked. And when I teach the aftermath involving an anthropologist who hoarded some of the remains and used them as teaching tools, they are even more shocked. And I teach in Pennsylvania. Even some students from Philly are unaware of this history

fun thing about the MOVE bombing is that some of the bodies just kind of wound up not going back to families/etc www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/h...

Also American has a direct flight from Chicago to Bismarck so I’m visiting over the 4th of July, plus a swing through the ND badlands and a couple days at my parents’ house if anyone wants to tag along.

I live in Chicago. I feel kinship with Milwaukee, Detroit, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Brooklyn and Queens, and honestly Cleveland. I haven’t been to Buffalo, Baltimore, or Philly but I’m assuming I’d vibe with them too.

early 2010s had a perfect Belle & Sebastian experience watching them outdoors on Brooklyn waterfront in the rain and there was a woman alone way back on the asphalt in a lawn chair with a leg cast, holding an umbrella over it, which is itself the most Belle & Sebastian image of all time

i guess we don't need liberal democracy
