@chicagobars I don’t drink. I’m multiples of 21. I buy a bag of Tamale Guy tamales at Lone Wolf to go. In and out. Not a stranger to the Bouncers. Still have to show ID. Every. Single. Time. It’s the only time I’m ever in a bar. PITA.

I cannot stress strongly enough that despite whatever people have read on Reddit or seen on TikTok many Chicago bars will not accept Digital IDs on Saturday and furthermore the State Liquor Control Commission says the bars aren’t required to: ilcc.illinois.gov/content/dam/so…

@4ever_ktown @TheFinalUnc Go see the NYE fireworks. Post up across from the Merchandise Mart, where the countdown clock is projected. Fireworks run along the river. facebook.com/share/v/185DMk…

@ballesteros_312 Carlos, is he really living in the West Loop in Chicago?

@BuildingChi @TKurek75 They are having financing issues like everyone else, and are considering a building sale if all else fails.

@TylerLaRiviere @Suntimes @WBEZ Which West Loop building?

"Hello gentlemen", U.S. Border Patrol Cmdr. Gregory Bovino said to waiting photographers outside an office building in the West Loop, before getting into a waiting SUV, Friday, Nov. 7, 2025. | Tyler Pasciak LaRiviere/Sun-Times

@jessezorr Probably because you’re clueless about how the corrupted Development Review Process works in the West Loop, where the unelected WCA which sells its Board Seats and is paid by Developers for “Letters of Support”. See: facebook.com/share/v/1FYWT6…

I don’t understand how the west loop is building so many towers and then a project like this starts catching flack: blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/04/wes…

@chicagobars @armyblue Thanks for the details, learned something new.

@TrueWestLoop @armyblue Wrong. Anybody who files in last hour of candidate filing goes into a lottery for last spot if more than one candidate files in last hour. There is no advantage to filing at last second in that last hour. Page 12 of 2025 Cook County Candidate's Guide

If there are any City Hall reporters still downtown a woman with thousands of signatures to run for a Metropolitan Water Rec board seat just went to wrong floor at 69 Washington to file for March primary & missed deadline to file in correct office by 2 minutes. 😱🤯🗳️

@chicagobars @armyblue It’s actually a strategy. It would have secured her final spot on the ballot if she pulled it off. She didn’t.

@armyblue Meh. Showing up at the wrong office at the last minute on the last day to file is less the mark of a specific party candidate than the mark of a not prepared enough candidate.

@AldConway Nothing to be proud of when you won’t distribute the livestream from the 37 S. Sangamon Development before public commenting ends, letting the WCA and MB PAC misrepresent the Community. That’s corruption, Bill.

Proud that even as the smallest ward in Chicago, the 34th ranks #3 citywide for building permits issued this year. We’re creating jobs, building housing, and driving investment right here in our community.

@BlockClubCHI Beat you both to the story by more than a year. Why not just give credit where credit is due? Why lie?!?

It's official: Trader Joe's is coming to Fulton Market. blockclubchi.co/4qdNnSh

@rinextdoor What’s going on there tonight, with all the cops?

bro why is Akilia this small wtf

@PassportBuck Closed. They’re saying temporarily. It looks more permanent.

Is Gioia (west loop) still open? I seen their doors and blinds closed at 7pm on a busy Friday night.

@heb_kratom Is it still there? Is it an escapee from the slaughterhouse on Halsted? Or a contracted grass & weed eating service? Or is someone missing a pet?

#sheep in parking lot West Loop. Cops called.

@ChicagoAmelia LOL! Those are my pics lifted directly from this Facebook post: facebook.com/share/p/1C7JGC…

@chorizoandbeer @jasonc_nc @VanyaWright @bhargreaves Your neighbs want to know which restaurant? Bets are on the BB. Are they right?

@jasonc_nc @VanyaWright @bhargreaves There is a restaurant I otherwise love in Fulton Market in Chicago that is known for basically accepting that every dog brought in is a service dog. To the point where there are half a dozen dogs on the inside at all times. Some off leash. I HATE it with a passion.

There are too many dogs in American cities. Not just in parks, but in grocery stores, restaurants, and strollers. The urban dog has gone from companion to cultural force—and it’s reshaping how cities work. 🧵

@WestLoopTom Beans are good for you. Chili & Mac is great. Chili Lasgna is even better. Plus you can put anything in a lasagna.

@TrueWestLoop Except I have a ton of beans in here.

It’s a million degrees out but I had to use some ingredients I over bought. So I made a spicy vat of chili. At least it’s cold indoors.
