Good gawd. But why am I surprised?
Oof... I checked in on a friend in Kankakee.
Kankakee & heading east
This tornado is WILD! I'm glued to the @abc7chicago.bsky.social coverage.
I've lived in this district for over 20 years. We need a representative who knows the community. Who is rooted here. Vote @danielbiss.bsky.social . With the win, we hold him accountable. We don't need a newbie who doesn't go here & doesn't know how to govern.
Have you met men? They are an emotional bunch.
Hey, itβs weird that the Tribune doesnβt mention how GOP candidate for governor Ted Dabrowski, whom they profile fairly glowingly here, was (until very recently) a VP at Illinois Policy Institute, and that another IPI VP (Hilary Gowins) sits on the Trib editorial board. Thatβs weirdβ¦right?
To every little girl who dreams of making change: I hope you see this campaign and know you can do it too.
Happy International Womenβs Day
P.S we inspire the little boys too
If you are talking about Sunny Naqvi, but not the Muslim Banβ¦ π
US Born Citizen Sunny Naqvi unlawfully detained by ICE for βinconsistent travel.β She is safe and home.
There are 85 countries on the most recent Muslim, African and Latin American Ban as a part of Trumpβs 2.0 Muslim Ban.
Do I get hyped for baseball?
YEEEES!
Do I love that I can put on a game to nap to?
HELL YEAH!
Hamnet is streaming! Let's go... I got a bowl of pasta & tissues. And curling on replay for recovery.
Thirteen years ago, a handful of us fought like hell to protect a book that humanized Iran. Jarrett Dapier and AJ Dungo tell an urgent story beautifully.
The downside of the rise of women's sports is the emergence of the dude who needs to comment on every play.
We watched Karina Villa chase down ICE in a suit and heels, telling them to get out of her community. Margaret Croke intentionally panicked white parents about their selective enrollment schools vanishing if neighborhood schools received additional funding. This race is ICE whistles vs. dogwhistles.
Facebook is down, right?
BSky! If you're a new women's sports fan, what do you need help with? Picking a team? Finding merch? Rules? I'm a vet to this game. Hit me with questions!
The Black joy each time "Sinners" wins is just a delight.
Also totally missed that Robert Trebor died. That weird man made Xena such a silly show.
Dear gawd it's been quite a year. Lost so many giants.
It was soooo cute.
Now that is the shenanigans I was hoping for tonight. LOL!
I figured Hudson would show up, but it was really such a joy to see it. In a very dumb skit, but I knew this wasn't gonna be great.
I knew the guys would show up. Megan & Hilary were a surprise. And FABULOUS surprise.
zero redemption is what they deserve.
OK, that monologue was good. Good digs at the guys.
Stayed home today and deciding to watch "Come See M in the Good Light" so let's go... got popcorn & tissues.
A must read analysis of the sh1t show that is the US men's hockey debacle.
The coffee shop is playing Norah Jones and omg, why don't I listen to her more often? Every time I hear her voice it is a balm to my soul.
One of the things I love about Gen Z is how they take all the little millennial snark sayings seriously. We said βhang it in the louvreβ for two decades and they said βbetβ
