Josh Gad being cast in the Spaceballs sequel means he is def gonna be Barf's descendant. No other role is acceptable.

For the love of Athena, please, please, please do a quick search before you share sensational news from a FB page. "Star donates millions..." "Colbert joins forces with Kimmel..." all appear to be AI slop. If someone that famous made such a move, outlets other than a random FB page would say! 🤦‍♀️

the minute you guys stop acting like nazis we'll stop. easy.

Unless they’re in a boat? Unless they are driving their kids to school? Unless you’ve deported or extrajudicially rendered them to a place they’ve told you/the State Department has told you they will be assassinated?

Charters should not be allowed to close midyear. Full stop.

Once you process the ridiculous aspects of this executive order (no, there is no org called antifa, let alone one doing what he claims), pay attention to the line about “necessary investigatory and prosecutorial actions against those who fund such operations.” This is how he comes for nonprofits.

Organizing and educating against white nationalism, I often heard “This isn’t who we are” from schools and politicians after an incident of obvious bigotry, sometimes after repeated incidents. We are absolutely that country.

One thing's for sure. If I get access to a spreadsheet, I'm gonna freeze that top row. My brain can't remember what each column is, even from context.

Is Everclear still up for buying me a new life? What about parts?

The TRiiBE is collaborating with indie investigative newsroom @unraveledpress.com and alt-weekly @chicagoreader.com to publish reports about the increased enforcement and presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other federal agents. thetriibe.com/2025/09/live...

Before I got my haircut, I warned close friends that it was well planned and not a spontaneous reaction to current life events. I forgot to warn my therapist. I guess we'll see how she reacts this morning. LOOOOL!

new bot! @chicago-seasons.bsky.social i found someone on r/chicago who wrote their own local interpretation of the japanese calendar's traditional division of the year into 72 microseasons of 5 days each. it'll post a description on the first day of each kō. please share to your chicago feeds!

I love this rebranding of Trapper Keepers by just wrapping multiple notebooks together with a big rubber band. As someone who carries more than one notebook every day, I actually love it. 2026 may be the year for the change.

When I was placed on the Professor Watchlist in 2021, people sent death threats about my children. I had security officers monitor my 8yo at school. Where is all the outrage for those of us who have been targeted for years? Where is the outrage for our families? My own colleagues are silent.

a map of ice arrests/sightings just today. reports span from way north in waukegan to the western suburbs of elgin, west chicago, and aurora, to joliet and dixmoor in the south. in chicago, agents seen in east garfield park, little village, brighton park, university village and nearby cicero.

Bombshell ‘Wall Street Journal’ Investigation Finds Tyler Robinson Once Had Trans Uber Driver

oh wow... @wgntv.com is just basically running WH video without edits now.

"Sometimes you only truly know how much you love something when you get a sense that you might be losing it," said Late Night host Stephen Colbert while accepting the award for Outstanding Talk Series at the #Emmys. 🏆 www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Stephen Colbert's Emmys speech: "I have never loved my country more desperately. Stay strong, be brave, and if the elevator tries to bring you down, go crazy and punch a higher floor!"

@wgntv.com y'all let a lot of this rhetoric go unchecked tonight.

A man in Washington, DC, plays the Imperial March from Star Wars while following patrolling soldiers. One of the soldiers threatens to call the police.

Something people aren't talking about enough is how often Charlie Kirk invoked the Fifth Amendment when testifying before Congress about the domestic terrorists he provided buses to get to Washington on January 6, 2021.

Love that he used a joke to shout out his staff.

I thought the Emmys were on Paramount+. can't find it anywhere.

Hi ICE killed a single dad at a traffic stop here on Friday Today they are disappearing people again in broad daylight, they are everywhere If you have any national platform at all Chicago is fucking begging you, please help us

New York Governor Kathy Hochul in her endorsement op-ed goes after Eric Adams and Andrew Cuomo without naming them:

ADAM SCOTT! 😍

When speaking to Tommy Robinson at the far right demonstration in London today, Elon Musk wore a t-shirt saying "What would Orwell think?" So let's dive in - what would George Orwell think about Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk? 🧵

"The voucher payments to Burnett and his wife represent apparent conflicts of interest, according to both CHA and [HUD]." chicago.suntimes.com/real-estate/...

"The failure to name the gendered nature of most violence (political and otherwise) is especially notable because a large part of Charlie Kirk’s success was due to the ways in which he pushed for a reinforcement of a certain kind of traditional—and very aggressive—(white) masculinity."

Thank you @michelmartinnpr.bsky.social for framing yesterday's murder of Kirk with the larger landscape of violence against political leaders. We can't isolate his death. We must remember Melissa Hortman.

Five years ago all this stuff about Trump's serial abuse came up. Women who had been minors at the time told their stories. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020...

Medical diagnosis

Went to my neighborhood bar to watch the Bears & write and I ended up talking to a guy about how his socialism is bullshit since he didn't see how class is racialized & gendered. So yeah... Chicago is hella dangerous. You never know when a feminist is in your midst.

Love that Archer & Olive always has great Swiftie designs. The new Halloween drop brings another snake design! (affiliate link) www.archerandolive.com/blogs/news/f...

“Who keeps us safe? WE KEEP US SAFE!” Chicago showed up in the streets tonight.❤️

If you are reposting the video of the salt trucks in Chicago, the one with no date on it, which gives no source or credit, which is not being reported by any news organization in town, big or small, then Garfield has a message for you

Not having a car can be a PITA but also taking the bus across town offers me alone time I wouldn't give myself.

conversely, it should tell you something when CA and former CA residents are telling you NOT THIS GUY while Vote Blues are astroturfing the shit out of him "oh so you want the GOP to win?" no, we want someone who won't throw trans kids away while he's losing to the GOP candidate.

Angel Reese owes no apologies. She wasn’t wrong. And when male athletes say things like she did, no one bats an eye, let alone turn it into a national debate.

Why did the goddess make me so in love with nature but make me so allergic to it? I want to scratch my eyes out.

ICE claims to have arrested ~450 people working on constructing a new Hyundai plant in Georgia “marking what appears to be one of the largest ICE raids at a single site in the 22-year history of the agency.”

Tip of the sphere?!

I really want to have Sophie Cunningham's PR machine working for me. She's not the best player by a mile and yet she's all up in my feed.

Someone at NYT grames is ready for the holidays.

The fascist childist tactics to drown out the voices of Epstein survivors and wasting our tax dollars.

Gonna file this away the next time we try to hold police officers accountable by filming. Don't get me wrong, I greatly appreciate our fighting governor. Just taking notes for the after times.

A reminder to the National Guard out there — Trump is putting the Guard on 29-day orders so that he does not have to pay full health benefits or housing — and is taking you away from your jobs and families to boot. This is what he thinks of your service. God Bless America. 🇺🇸 #MAGA 🧾 is.gd/sX4rN5
