Someone questioned what I could possibly do with ten days in Copenhagen. Oh, I don't know. Nerd out about finding a courtyard park with a hill only to find out the hill is actually a gymnasium with grass on top. This is urban planning.

Update: It hasn't happened yet but I found a dive bar around the corner from the hotel and that's where I'll be.

Playboy has the juice.

Oh my god we’re actually reading Playboy for the articles

The standard photos of Copenhagen but you guys, that light.

Proof of life.

The Danes are tall people.

Chicago is committed 🖤

Best city.

commencement speeches this year are like:

Hello from the airport.

Yep. Hard same.

So damn smug throughout. Commencement speakers are there to enhance a graduate's day. Use it as a way to talk down to people who are facing a terrifying future BECAUSE of AI? He should be grateful that all they did was boo.

Walking up Clark St and the line for the new location of Paper & Pencil extended past Svea.

We finished off a bunch of bananas before vacation. Please clap.

Extremely excited for tomorrow's home opener of Chicago's finest third-tier soccer team Edgewater Castle FC. A whole season's ticket costs $50. www.edgewatercastlefc.com

If it happens while I'm out of the country I'll report back on how the Danes react. I also apologize ahead of time to anyone in Copenhagen for my obnoxious reaction.

Anyway it’s almost time for Eurovision, which the “oh is there a sportsball on” crowd will be dismayed to learn is the closest thing Europe has to college football

Yeah just got in Settings -> Apps -> ai core and it has a disable button

I checked and thankfully I don't have it. I hate it here.

68,000 Americans die every year because basic care is withheld for profit. We have normalized sacrificing human life for shareholder value. Medicare for All isn't radical. Social murder is.

My man looks like he directed an arthouse biopic about the Pillsbury Doughboy.

Just found out the Cubs game is on the regular TV and god damn do I miss the days of sports being on a few channels. I assumed they were on Marquee or some shit like that.

NICO HOERNER, FULL EXTENSION 😱

Ugh. Once again, fuck Naperville.

Today is Endangered Species Day, and we’re celebrating a tiny bird with a massive spirit: the Piping Plover! 1/4 📸: Chicago Piping Plovers (June 2025)

I feel I should alert Bluesky to the baby foxes in our yard

But mailing guns isn't a criminal enterprise. I hate these mother fuckers with every ounce of my being.

Chicagoland has seen a steady pace of ICE sighting + abduction alerts all week. After one person was taken in Waukegan yesterday, this morning feds are dispersed broadly across the burbs again. Seen in Round Lake Beach and Joliet so far. A worker was snatched at a Bolingbrook Burger King at 5:30am.

THAT'S RIGHT, MOTHERFUCKERS, I WON A WEBBY AWARD. Here's my 5-word speech. #webbys

We know we told you we weren’t pairing a beer with this new glass for our next Keep the Glass Night on Thursday, May 14th, but then we decided to release Beer for BBQ that day and realized our lager with brown sugar and honey would be a perfect match for this new glass.

At this point anyone who cares about justice and the rule of law just needs to be upfront about the fact that this is an illegitimate court whose decisions will be undone at the first opportunity, and that opportunity being peaceful is the best these partisan hacks can hope for.

It's rude that I actually have work to do the week before vacation.

The Thompson Triplets.

This condo could fix me.

Decompressing before vacation.
