An ICE watch zine (Chicago edition) being handed out today.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride. However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

LET'S GO QUEERS

Illinois follows the law — we expect the federal government to follow the law, too. We won't participate in abuses of power. We won't violate court orders. We won't ignore the Constitution. We won't defy the Supreme Court. We won't take away people’s right to peacefully protest.

Try this instead

Jon is a Marine Corps veteran who served at Camp Pendleton. Here’s what he thinks of Pete Hegseth’s threats to deploy Marines in Los Angeles.

Anyone who is against building transit and bike infrastructure really hates their life cause these commute times within the city are absurd

Wtffffffff. More reason to wear your masks, folks. I for one enjoy not being sick.

Oh, it’s not just a jersey thing? What could have made this a national issue? What change at the FAA in the last 6 months? Impossible to tell.

I got stressed and cut my own bangs again. 😞

And he was a Lyft driver?!

Ahhhhhhh 🙏 Thank God someone is doing the work!

Embarrassing and evil.

Timeline cleanse. I went to Wisconsin, ate some cheese, saw some art. #wisconsin #roadtrip

I hope everyone remains safe and also that people know that a corporate spaceflight of only women astronauts for a company owned by a deeply destructive billionaire who is enabling fascism is just public relations for fascism and has absolutely nothing to do with feminism

This is helpful to see!

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

The stupid coup's stupid energy policy--coal is just a dirty, expensive, moribund way to make electricity, and it's also some kind of symbolic Ye Mannehood of Olde stuff that the right gets all sentimental about, while screwing over actual coal miners.

Moronic

Titanique, Chicago style 😍

Scenes from Taste of Iceland music events in Chicago over the weekend, including lúpína, a rare listen of an 11-year-old Bjork, and tracing the Iceland family music tree with @hermigervill.bsky.social from the ‘70s (more in comments bc can’t post multiple vids in main)

Yesssssssss, inspiring to see so many people downtown today (and to see the other crowds all over the country). We have to keep the momentum going! Hands off! #Chicago #handsoff

I recently learned that not only is Kroger (Mariano’s) defending DEI, but I can order groceries from Mariano’s and Kroger will deliver so I don’t have to use Instacart. Just tried it, and it was great! I don’t have a car and can’t always walk to the store and back with heavy things. Thx, Kroger! 💪

My 2nd year at Biophilic Leadership Summit at Serenbe (just outside Atlanta) is in the books! Was an incredible three days with inspiring speakers, so much data, walks in the woods, and even an impromptu light show at the labyrinth. Many wonderful stories to share! #serenbe #biophilicinstitute

Warm Lake Michigan days in Evanston 🥰 Late March 2025

Well, I hope a kraken swallows them 🐙 Leave shit alone.

Dropped my phone and lost an earplug (quickly recovered) I was so excited. Finally got to see Refused, just in time for their “we’re done for good” tour. So glad I got to see them at @saltshedchicago.bsky.social #hardcore #punk #refused #chicago #livemusic 🇸🇪🤘😎🖤

Whoop whoop

So much fun at the new @elstonelectric.bsky.social @saltshedchicago.bsky.social today. Even had my fortune told by a Garbage Pail kid (sadly it wasn’t Luke Puke) 🤮😎 #chicago #arcade

Arrivals 🏙️💙 #chicago #travel #flight

hmmm don't think that's it

Seriously people. STOP USING META.

I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.

Mono at Metro, Chicago / March 18, 2025 🖤 #livemusic #metrochicago #music

About to go out in a denim jacket sporting a Krampus pin because I CANNOT GET THIS PIN OFF! Year-round Krampus is a mood.

Did a thing I haven’t in years—saw unfamiliar music by myself in a country where I don’t speak the language. Beautiful and moving, challenging and unexpected, in a good way. Seeing Søren Huss at the beautiful DR Koncerthuset was a nice end to two weeks in Europe. Mange tak! 🇩🇰 #copenhagen #solotravel
