"Since September, at least six unhoused Chicagoans have been abducted by federal agents. That number is likely higher, but the social invisibility and isolation already faced by people experiencing homelessness make their disappearances harder to track" by @katieprout.bsky.social @mulchy.bsky.social

Don't extend Hinch.

My take on the Republican’s government shutdown. Dems hold the line, protect American’s rights and hard earned benefits. open.substack.com/pub/alexande...

Calling it.

Can't wait for the ABS challenge next season.

Well idk what Dingler was swinging at on that last strike, but this zone is bonkers bad.

Rainbow cookie is not a thing.

My husband was detained by ICE today Juan Muñoz, an American citizen, father of 2, and local government official, was peacefully protesting w. other elected officials. He was assaulted and taken away I have had zero contact or updates since #SOS @duckworth.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov

It's going to be a scary weekend in Chicago

Select pages from one of the kids favorite books

Disregarding the state of our country and invasion of force in my city to live blindly on the thrill of postseason baseball, led by a bunch of conservatives fucks.

Oh, it's the whole crew.

I'm not sure this home plate ump has his contacts in. His zone is inconsistent and messy.

Bad managing by Hinch today. I'm all for resting Skubal, but resting your hitters when you could take the Division with a win? And keeping them on the bench after the lead was blown and Cleveland was down? Of all days not to over manage—and he's getting extended.

And just like that, Cubs fans forget Matt Shaw is a trash human.

"Whales won't eat you." My ass.

How to be a good mom, according to my algorithms: Set boundaries, but don't offend anyone. Find time for self care, but know you can't do it all. Thrive at work, but don't make it your life. Have a deep commitment to your family, but don't have expectations. Don't get your hopes up, but have faith.

From gritty to shitty 🐯

After following Kerry Carpenter on Instagram, I'm kinda glad he sucks lately.

I'm so naive, I'm disappointed in the number of ballplayers mourning Kirk.

Came here to say this. Sucks to suck

@electrolemon.bsky.social I'm just saying, we could all use a little joy right now... youtu.be/Qfi9JpgMc2U?...

Must watch.

More confirmed ICE activity in Chicago this morning. Reported shortly after 10 a.m. The Wicker Park / Humboldt Park neighborhoods both have large Latine populations; this is as about as deep into the city proper that we've yet seen agents cruising the streets. bsky.app/profile/bmes...

We should all know the signs of a stroke.

Someone shot up my kid's school today, and our governor is paying tribute to a guy who thought that is an acceptable price to pay for having the Second Amendment. Jared Polis has failed Colorado.

Kids are so resilient. My 2 y/o just went from hysterics for not being first up to stairs to running down the hallway screaming and smiling.

Trump promised to lower the cost of living, but things have gotten even harder! Coffee is up 33%. Vegetables are up 40%. Washing machines cost 12% more. @momsrising.org is gathering #Trumpflation stories about high prices - do you have one to share? trumpflation.momsrising.org #MomSky

It's so depressing when you can't find a nice picture of yourself with both your kids.

TAYLOR SWIFT IS PART OF THE PROBLEM WITH AMERICA! STOP USING HER ENGAGEMENT PHOTOS TO GET IMPRESSIONS. SHE IS NOT YOUR FEMINIST ICON.

People be posting about a tragic school shooting that should never have happened and then jump right back to #fitstatus checks. This is America.

Damn! Expected to hear about the loss of food programs in the schools. Did NOT expect to hear about the loss of gym teachers & nurses in the school, health classes, outdoor programs. And for what? More money in the pockets of people like the DeVos family so they can add to their yacht collection??

Finally cleaning up D.C.!

Brands depicting Taylor's fiance as some non-toxic masculine feminist ally really haven't been paying attention.

I hope she gets a prenup!

Can we just stop with flat sheets? Whose idea was this anyway?

Axios might be the most illiterate news outlet available.

I know as a feminist I'm supposed to be supportive of other women, and my husband will say I'm just being a contrarian, but fuck off Taylor.

The plan? Jack up grocery bills so Trump’s billionaire donors can get bigger yachts.

The mental load is so heavy. Can you imagine being so free?

Estranged is such a scary word, but it's nothing to be ashamed of. My dad and I are estranged. It's hard. It's sad. But it also just is. It's to protect me. But, I have to admit, sometimes I wonder. What's it like to have unconditional love? What's it mean to be bonded?

Check out your local back-to-school bash, Chicago!

ICYMI: Amazon still doing Amazon things The company is not only reintroducing new versions of old features that allow police to access footage from Ring users Amazon is introducing a new Ring feature that will allow police to request *livestream* access to our home security devices. @eff.org

Larry Summers: "This is way beyond anything Nixon ever did ... this is the stuff of democracies giving way to authoritarianism. Firing statisticians goes with threatening the heads of newspapers, launching assaults on universities, launching assaults on law firms. This is really scary stuff."

Haven't taken Amtrak in more than 5 years and wow has it gotten shitty.

You click on one pyramid scheme link and you're served more pyramid scheme ads for daysssss.

I fucking love pierogies

The Trump administration is illegally blocking certain immigrants from Head Start through a rushed, anti-democratic process—with no guidance, no input, and no accountability. The only way to fight back is by flooding their inbox with public comments. Take action now! act.nwlc.org/a/headstart-...

One of the most important and powerful things any kid can do to make a better world is if they see someone being pushed around, stand up for them. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

Just thinking about how bad the last season of Ozark was.
