A year ago, Detroit Metro journalist, Steve Neavling, wrote about the decades-long search for September Jones. Her relatives saw the story, and now the long-lost soul singer from Detroit has been found and is collecting royalties. She had no idea how popular her music still was in the U.K.

Did Susan Collins forget?

Right analogy, wrong usage. Trump is Lucy here and there is no football to kick.

Those Loretto defendants just received a gift.

Same in Bridgeport, with the additional comedy of morons at Turtles on 33rd insisting on riding things out in their patio seating.

Add this to the list of reasons why the White House needs a ballroom.

Orange Cassidy tearing away his jeans to reveal another pair of jeans underneath is why I love pro wrestling. Sometimes, it's high art. #AEWDynamite

I had two for dinner with Harold’s mild sauce because that’s a next level move.

It's amazing how many posts and stories like this you see. E-bikes are revolutionizing transportation, enabling people to go more places without cars, and there's an all-out assault to kill them.

The Lanai on Lowe has seen better days. I think the tomato plants are battered but not destroyed. But that storm took the top two tiers from my pepper trellis.

The receipts of “negotiat[ing] with bombs” includes 168 schoolchildren dead in Mina, Iran.

A Krassenstein and Riley Gaines? Seems fitting.

Tied for fifth with a transgender influencer.

Danhausen is holding out for large amounts of human money to curse every despicable being slated to show up at MSG for Game 4 and give the Knicks an edge.

I've spent months speaking to current & retired Black service members about being part of the military in this political moment. What I found were officers and soldiers despondent at the resurgence of racism, yet often insistent that they were fighting for what this country could be, not what it is.

So I need to drink coffee the way Trump pops aspirin?

Even in the news reposts on Riley O’Neil that detail all the ways that the driver blocking the bike lane was at fault. Then they add that bike lanes cock up traffic.

I'm not sure if the Platonic ideal of Benson and Stabler can overcome the Black Hole of Suck that is Donald Trump at MSG.

Ted Cruz — a man who flees Texas at the slightest hint of inclement weather — should be the last one to question another man's masculinity.

Thank you, New York.

We deserve to get home safe.

James Talarico eats BBQ and dates women. If he was a Republican, that would clinch the Senate election.

Twice in four days. That stretch of Halsted by Ace Bakery is treacherous.

Add this to the litany of reasons why Trump wants a ballroom on the White House campus.

I was set to go to bed last night at a decent hour. Then I logged on to YouTube and was presented with a slew of videos from Rush’s first gig with Anika Nilles on drums. These Chicago shows cannot come soon enough. youtu.be/FpRJQButahQ?...

IOKIYAR

The mic stomp is funny, but can we talk about how hunched over Trump was as he rose from his seat? The man is infirm.

To some in the national media, Wisconsin may as well be Cambodia.

You know what to do, Knicks fans.

The most demoralizing part of all of this is understanding CDOT staff have to return to work Monday and deal with all the same pushback they always do as they try to make it safer to bike in Chicago. www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/t...

This is 57. Details TK.

We are hosting a vigil and bike jam for Riley. Flyer forthcoming. It will be on Monday, 6/8 at 7pm. Palmissano Park (Fitness Course; across from McGuane Park's playground)

CDOT lost the best of our team yesterday. We're heartbroken. In memory of Riley O'Neil, please refer to these bike racks as "Riley Racks". He led Chicago's bike parking program for several years. Our hearts are broken, but we want to make sure his legacy lives on 💙🚲 Please spread the word

Every remaining living D-Day veteran listening or viewing this is probably thinking they invaded Normandy to defeat people like Pete Hegseth.

Me as a cartoon.

They made up the word that he campaigned on two years ago?

The Pod Save guys are an opposite but equally wrong reaction to what has happened with conservative politics. That they were all in on Graham Platner and even lobbed Platner softball questions after the dude's white supremacist tattoo was revealed speaks volumes.

I've been on vacation since last Friday and today is the first day I decided to lounge in my Eames chair. I need to vacation better.

I think it could be pretty easy to bend this on to the drive. Then it would be handled. (Note: DLS/Forensic Garlic followed up that this *was* handled shortly after.)

Apparently, it's #LetterboxdFriday. I'm not a LetterBoxd member, but here are my #LastFourWatched. www.criterionchannel.com/directed-by-...

I foresee a host of impounded e-bikes in the future. chicago.suntimes.com/transportati...

If you want a distraction from, well, I highly recommend the Alex Cox playlist on the Criterion Channel: Repo Man, Walker, Straight to Hell and Highway Patrolman. Each one more batshit surreal than the next. All of them under two hours in run time. You will fly through it.

Gonna tell my grand-nephews and grand-nieces this was Gavin Newsom.

It also highlights how out of touch Democratic Party leadership and the consultant class is. Mamdani's campaign was a true grassroots effort. The coalition that foisted Platner into the public sphere should never be involved in politics again.

That’s because Wrigleyville is essentially Schaumburg now.

1. The Burj Khalifa is 2,717 feet tall. 2. Someone on Trump's team resisted the urge to put his Chicago tower on that list. 3. Sears Tower is taller than the Empire State Building. 4. If a reporter noted that to Trump, he would have called them "nasty" or "fake news" & it would have been worth it.

Drinking raw milk is the risk. Any and every dairy selling raw milk to consumers is perpetuating the risk. Again I ask: which country is the shithole?
