Pretty cold Saturday morning as a prep for tomorrow which will be even more frigid. But the faithful came out and the timid were gently teased. In the end about 7.5 #RunningPunks miles in about 7°. One OnlyFans exploit picture at the end of the roll. Stay warm, you rascals.

@sundaedivine.bsky.social found you

I needed four miles to cap off the week. It was dark & snowing, so why not go out before there are too many cars? Literally no other runners. Footing was awful and almost no streets were plowed. But another #RunningPunks week in the books. Take care out there & Go @chicagobearsnews.bsky.social

Destination location in @lakebluff for the Saturday AmeriPunks. Some went in after to volunteer at @berniesbookbank A few solo #RunningPunks miles after the pack for me. Take care, y’all.

@denisedewald.bsky.social Seen at Rush hospital in Chicago.

Good for Berman. More of this please

A gentle #RunningPunks 🐫 Day outing after lunch. Some awkward stepping around piles of snow narrowed streets. Hat tip to falling snow crystals that lasered into my 👀 the entire time 😀.

Hey guys, I think it's way past time to call him what he is, a racist.

Good morning, Chicago. Let’s go!!!

Yet another long feature article about political violence that refuses to acknowledge the basic reality that right-wing violence is far more common than left-wing violence. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

Don’t. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers.

First serious #RunningPunks snow of the year to make the running path look great. Great company as we broke down how Thanksgivings went, what the book clubs were reading, and how delayed all travel would be and why. Take care, y’all.

This week: The fascist administration has been harassing Sen Mark Kelly of Arizona with threats of court martial and accusations of treason for joining in a video reminding military personnel that it’s their duty not to execute illegal orders; restating the basics of their oaths.

“As two men clung to a stricken, burning ship targeted by SEAL Team 6, the Joint Special Operations commander followed the defense secretary’s order to leave no survivors.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

@christenrexing.bsky.social Game on!

@sarcher.bsky.social Just listened to Cold War Santa. Loved it. Another lesser considered source of a closer look a post WWII consumerism is (believe it or not) the musical Little Shop of Horrors? Written in 1982.

The US government is now investigating duly elected Democratic Senators for reminding military servicepeople that they should follow the law. Let’s be real. This isn’t only about threatening Mark Kelly with court martial. It’s to remind those serving to be loyal to a fascist tyrant.

@andrear9md.bsky.social A riff on chicken piccata based on what was within arm’s reach. (It’s always fun to get out the mallet.) Mixed tastes in the audience so capers on the side. Pearled couscous as a helper. Take care.

Remember the woman a Border Patrol Agent shot? DOJ just dropped the case.

Happy Thursday, Chicago. LFG!

VACCINES DO NOT CAUSE AUTISM, YOU FLAMING SHITBIRDS. THE LAST TIME HHS, AS CURRENTLY OCCUPIED BY RFK JR., CONDUCTED A “COMPREHENSIVE ASSESSMENT” OF THE CAUSES OF AUTISM THEY BLAMED TYLENOL AND THEN, BECAUSE IT WAS BULLSHIT, HAD TO WALK IT BACK.

OK, Chicago. I see your rain. Let’s Go! And fuck that fat black bot “Quiet Quiet, Piggy” guy.

There's a lot we have not visualized in a useful way. One of the big ones is the SHIFT in govt employment from "people who cure cancer" and "people who make sure your Social Security comes on time" and "people who care for veterans" to "people who kidnap your neighbors."

Insane

I had the opportunity to review the work experience and skills of numerous people who were laid off or fired from public health jobs by Donald Trump. I want every taxpayer to know that the US has lost an immeasurable number of the smartest, most experienced, and hardworking people on the planet.

The panic that kicks in at 2pm every day when I realize it gets dark in two hours

@christenrexing.bsky.social maybe you can arrange this tonight

@cherijacobus.bsky.social right about Schumer

In yet another attempt to erase J6 history, Trump has pardoned key allies & co-conspirators who have previously plead guilty, been disbarred or could be tried: Rudy Giuliani John Eastman Sidney Powell Mark Meadows Boris Epshteyn Jenna Ellis Kenneth Chesebro More www.forbes.com/sites/siladi...

ICE has attacked young, old, anyone who they don't like their looks, and citizens! What happens is often beyond what law enforcement is required to do Lawsuits should follow from everyone who was kidnapped, taken from familiar surroundings and suffered Not normal Consequences are needed

@docrunningpunk.bsky.social This might not work with you.

This morning was the Indianapolis Monumental #RunningPunks Marathon. (My participation was in question earlier in the week.) The weather cooperated (cool) and the crowd here was super great ; my slow race gave me a lot of time to appreciate them. Every finish is a win.

Hitler did this

Hey @christenrexing.bsky.social Check out what my hotel room has!!

I’m dead. (And yes I followed @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social back immediately 😀✅)

Last night, in Chicago.

I have to imagine far-right Catholics are really struggling with the fact that they can now hear this stuff in English directly from the pope.

ICE isn’t going after the worst of the worst. This morning, they took a preschool teacher without a warrant IN FRONT OF CHILDREN in my district. #ice #chicago

Good morning, Chicago. Let’s have at it

All four seasons packed into day for the Chicago Hot Chocolate #RunningPunks 15K. The part of the route through Chicago’s south Loop is just amazing. Then all sorts of chocolate and food after. You gotta try this.

Again, it's encouraging to see middle-aged white men screaming in the faces of these thugs.

Boycott Menards

It took years of shaming before we got NYT to call torture torture (they used Enhanced Interrogation Technique). Open to suggestions how we accelerate the process here. M-U-R-D-E-R

Good morning, Chicago. Time to wake up.

This incident is spreading through Chicago running circles. A 67 year old man, driving back from a long run with his friends, is pulled from the car and thrown to the ground by ICE (or BP?) agents because he did... something. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWAw...

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

Trump I like dead people dead people are good
