@purplcabbage I was sick from anxiety *a lot* in elementary school. I was extremely anxious about things like house fires or the (not real) possibility of my dad being drafted to fight in Desert Storm. Had horrible stomachaches all the time.

@Marathonpundit That’s not the north side. He’s avoided filming the north side bc unlike here he wouldn’t have been able to avoid showing tents (there was one at Randolph just north of this video when it was filmed).

The word has gone out to JB Pritzker’s media allies that it is “unfair” that the viral video of the apologist for illegals boasting about how safe Chicago is was filmed on the South Side. But a month earlier, he had the same message on the North Side. instagram.com/reel/DNx6OHVxO…

@brendenmoore13 Why didn’t Pritzker film any videos on the LFT on the far north side? Is it because he couldn’t have avoided showing all the tents?

@dilanesper The point of a window seat is to have something to lean again, not to look out.

@Bearthafuckdown @Micky_Horstman @the48thward @ChicagoParks I’m not blaming Pritzker for creating the problem, but he covered it up in those videos rather than highlighting it as a problem to be addressed. He could have made a video calling out Leni, Angela Clay, and the Parks District!

@Bearthafuckdown @Micky_Horstman He might not have been, but the Rogers Park arsonist was! And yes, it is getting worse every day and will continue to do so, because our alderwoman wants it that way. And Pritzker wants to make it look like there are no problems.

@bibliographing @Micky_Horstman Don’t get me wrong - the tents are ugly, and that should all be cleaned up in a humane yet brisk way. I live in Edgewater and drive by it all the time. It’s getting worse every day it seems. But this murderer wasn’t living in a tent. Irrelevant to this story.

@Bearthafuckdown @Micky_Horstman Correct. If he *had* shot videos on the lakefront on the far north side, they would have shown the extensive tent encampments that have been there for years.

@Micky_Horstman Also calling the lakefront “an area”-lmao what. It’s a lot of different areas! And the area in the video is nowhere near the area of where that awful murder took place. Lots of disingenuous framing going on here.

@Micky_Horstman The lakefront had plenty of problems when Pritzker made these videos. He shot them on the south side where there are no tents and downtown while strategically avoiding the tent at Randolph all last summer. Why no shots from the far north side that’s full of encampments?

@BresciaEric @shep_casey @GreenPlusAnE It wouldn’t translate into a cut of benefits for the high earners Russ hates. It would translate to a cut of benefits for everyone else.

@shep_casey @GreenPlusAnE If you got everything back you paid in plus the compound interest rate over that period, that would translate into a cut of benefits for most people. Most definitely if you include Medicare in that calculation

@Noahpinion Someone should really tell all my local pro-IZ YIMBYs this. Someone should also tell the developers who are building them. And the people who are moving into them.

One of the issues with the Chicago lakefront and it’s adjacent park land is that our government officials have allowed migrants and the homeless to pitch tents along it. It has made the lakefront and parks dirty and unsafe in certain area.

@bibliographing @davidgaw Surely you're not suggesting the working US taxpayer CONTINUE to be shaken down to HEAVILY subsidize healthcare they can't access and that won't be there for them when they retire.

🚨🚨🚨 This year, a couple retiring at the normal retirement age (~67) could collect $100,000 in Social Security benefits. 💰💵 Our new Six Figure Limit would cap benefits at that level. A short 🧵

@HICKS_M_ @davidgaw Sure, we can boot people once they get back every dime. It’s going to be only the wealthiest who get to keep collecting in that case.

@davidgaw What's wrong with booting folks from Social Security & Medicare once they get back every dime? Especially HEAVILY taxpayer-subsidized Medicare, which OFTEN pays out multiples of what recipients paid in.

Woah, @United just dropped a "one more thing" moment. Introducing Relax Row, three economy seats that can be converted into a couch/bed setup. Up to 12 Relax Rows per flight. Will be available on every 787 and many 777s. This is major for families!

@Ian_J27 @leviremmick @StefFeldman I would welcome any empirical evidence of this but suspect the opposite. Do you really think people with huge medical bills they can’t afford are typically paying a concomitant amount more in taxes, while healthy people with fewer expenses pay less? Unlikely over a lifetime.

For the kids who are too young to remember, you used to be unable to buy comprehensive health insurance on your own if you had depression, acne, diabetes, or obesity. It wasn't just expensive; you couldn't buy it all!
Inez Stepman ⚪️🔴⚪️@InezFeltscher

For the kids who are too young to remember, you used to be able to get basically full, complete coverage above a max of $5,000 (aka “catastrophic coverage”) for 90 bucks a month before Obama made it “affordable.”

@travispillow When they ask students who were carefully whole-grade accelerated under study conditions, their regret is more often that they didn't skip *another* grade!

A woman recently asked my local mom Facebook group whether her apparently gifted, barely-missed-age-cutoff 4-year-old should skip a grade. Usually I just brace myself for these messes. This time, I coded the responses.
