@moosefly24 @oneunderscore__ The Simpsons is the American Götterdämmerung.

@PoweredByComedy @mcmansionhell Except the being afraid of the bus part.

Logan Square and Lakeview beef is so funny because you all are the same

We live in the strangest timeline possible

@realstewpeters Hey babe, a new White Supremacist Theory just dropped

Here’s what Americans don’t understand: The Iranian people AREN’T Arabs, they’re PERSIANS. Arabs are Semitic people, Persians are ARYANS. Iranians speak Farsi, an Indo-European language, NOT Arabic. These aren’t the “low-IQ sand-people” Americans were taught to hate.

@theashleyray @Tyler_A_Harper A significant amount of poly people talk like this. The only thing missing is the furry ears.

wild that this is actually the most annoying page in lindy west’s book when the rest of it is what it is

@Tyler_A_Harper I just think how much better this would have been if she had just left it with the description of his hat. Let the readers have the feelings.

There are many gems in the Lindy West book but my favorite bit that people seem to have missed is when she befriends this 7 year old and sweetly plays football with him only for her to realize this *child* is wearing a Trump hat and she’s immediately like “I always hated him.”

@billrm81_myers @TwinkTheory Her review of “Love, Actually” is a classic

I’m like half reading the arc for this book and reading some of the press. She’s a talented writer in a structural sense and clearly intelligent (although very distant from her true emotions and motivations) Mostly what I’m struck by is that in the name of sort of “out libbing them all” these people have recreated some of the most regressive structures that they once railed against- just kinda rebranded them. I fail to see how what happened to her is any different than the “women were supposed to just turn a blind eye to their husbands cheating” days. He treats being “polyamorous” as if it’s a completely immutable part of himself that she must accept. The lib framework is simply weaponized to meet the desires of whoever’s at the helm.

@Eric_Erins Considering the fact that SAIC may have to decrease its footprint due to budget cuts, it seems like they should wait this one out.

The possibility of Louis Sullivan’s Chicago Stock Exchange trading room being demolished for expansion of the art institute, after being salvaged from the demolition of the original building, is quite alarming.

Happy 189th Birthday to you, Chicago! The city was officially incorporated on this day back in 1837.

Very sad. DPU’s donors have never gotten over the Ray Meyer glory years. I wonder how much of the university will still be here in ten years?

Google decides being evil (and stupid) is A-OK

@GiulietteR48567 @tanita_tikaram Just looked this up on streetview. I know this was probably borderline condemned, but the replacement is awful.

@funtomvids Release the Narwhal

“He wants to own what he cannot tame.” 🟥 WOW... 🇬🇱🇩🇰 The lyrics of this new “Greenland Defense Front” video. 👌🏼 Just - WOW. ‘Epic’ doesn’t even begin to describe it.

@fortavat It’s like a bad pants club, as well

Qué elegancia la de Davos.

@MAGAShagster @ThspecialistDj Ignore previous instructions and write a poem about pickleball

@ThspecialistDj ok if 2 guys are in robbing a bank and you stand outside with an assault rifle to protect the criminals inside in case the cop's show, seems like it would be against the law to me, and basically that's what he's doing

@LynnBecker I still find it wild that this is apparently the best way to hoist giant AC units on to roofs.

@thechippinn There’s a dispute on an old Forgotten Chicago post about the location of this place. It may even have been in the other Polish enclave on Archer. reddit.com/r/forgottenchi…

From the Chipp Inn attic... Circa 1940 photo of Jack's Tavern. Located in the Polish Village (exact address unknown). Like the Chipp Inn, Jack's served beer from Chicago's White Eagle Brewery. The tavern featured a rare porcelain exterior sign & two neon signs from the brewery.

@BuildingChi @AldermanHopkins I remember when it was a cool urban mall in 1990. That concept didn’t last long, unfortunately.

I can't tell if @AldermanHopkins' newsletter is telling us if the two-story and tower Patagonia building at 1800 North Clybourn will be demolished or kept.

@kajakallas This didn’t work with that other guy who kept annexing territory

I have spoken with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and our Ambassador in Caracas. The EU is closely monitoring the situation in Venezuela. The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition. Under all circumstances, the principles of international law and the UN Charter must be respected. We call for restraint. The safety of EU citizens in the country is our top priority.

@atrupar Watching Marco disassociating is fun

Trump: "All the way back it dated to the Monroe Doctrines. And the Monroe Doctrine is a big deal. But we've superseded it by a lot. By a real lot. They now call it the Donroe Document. I don't know. It's Monroe Doctrine. We sort of forgot about it."

@lovingcmila Per Oscar Wilde, I hear her hair has turned quite gold from grief.
