Thank you @chicagotribune for bringing attention to this awful legislation that has killed jobs and will end up closing restaurants if not repealed. chicagotribune.com/2026/03/16/edi…

☀️ Today is the start of 227 straight days of post 6pm sunsets. ☀️ Next Wednesday starts 181 straight days of post 7pm sunsets. ☀️ We’re just over 5 weeks till we get dusk past 8p, and that lasts 135 days.

@sportsrapport @chicagobars Tour of city required first.

Landed at LAX on a layover and the plane got from landing to gate in like 5 minutes. Someone should tell O’Hare that’s allowed.

@BlatzBeerLover @NiseiLounge Always when I’m out of town.

First visit to this legendary establishment. Had a couple beaut beers and met Luke — star of the bar

@mikezoller Sigh

Casa Humilde will close March 1st. At least the 5th brewery in the Chicagoland area to close this year already.

I might be the first person to ever work on a laptop inside this (definitely) tavern licensed establishment. Chicago #TavernWeek2026 remote working afternoon rolls on

My old place of employment will be missed.

Imagine only watching CBB in March. Every night delivers and this season is one of the best in a long long time

@mattlindner Or @NiseiLounge would work.

A world where Wrigley Field opens up the concourse on a Friday in the dead of winter, just the concourse, and you can go there and have a beer and just sit in complete silence.

Psychedelic Polar Vortex. Chicago on this day in 2019, the temperature was minus-21 at sunrise with a windchill of minus-51. #chiberia #chicago #winter

For anyone wondering when this cold weather will end, there is light at the end of the tunnel! Most of our long-range models suggest that temperatures will trend warmer during the first week of February. Now, it won't feel like the tropics. We'll take what we can get!

I’m good. Cc ⁦@mattstegman⁩ ⁦@WestLoopTom⁩

@OffcolorBrewing @andyweirauthor That’s a great start for a book too.

First book club meeting of 2026 is our most successful yet. 60 people discussing @andyweirauthor’s Project Hail Mary on a 15 degree night in January. Not too shabby. Next up is There There by Tommy Orange on Tuesday, February 17th. Hope to see you there there.

@WestLoopTom @JeppsonsMalort @chicagobars @mattlindner @dforan5 @mattstegman

I caved to the @JeppsonsMalort peer pressure. @chicagobars @mattlindner @dforan5 @mattstegman

There really is a video for everything.

[6:15 AM CST Wed 1/14/2026] Here's a graphic to accompany the gusty snow showers that will move steadily southward across the area this morning. Expect localized hazardous travel due to snow, strong winds gusting up to 40 mph, & temps quickly falling into the 20s. #ILwx #INwx

“The data shows a planet warming faster than policy response, storms intensifying alongside rising seas, and economic losses concentrating where resilience is weakest. Climate risk is now a planning variable, rather than a forecast uncertainty.” forbes.com/sites/diannepl…

@CubsBallhawk_ I thought it’d last as long as Golf at least.

So long Landmark Records #CUBS #BeHereForIt

@mikezoller Buckle up

The weather has been so weird today.
