The Rogers Park Birkin is a must-have accessory for any chic North Sider.

I gave him both the Perseverance and the Neptune, I kept the New Golden Hind.

There will not be so much as a single inch of snow accumulation in Chicago tonight. I wager my honor, my diamond cufflinks, my pleasure yacht, my mining concessions, and my vast and numerous latifundia and timberlands on this.

Tweet by Adrian @blagojevism: Should Chicago revive this evil Wagnerian goddess with her terrifying motto, "I WILL," as our municipal diety? [over 3 images of a white woman bearing a crown from which emerges a phoenix. This symbol was chosen by Chicago civic types to represent the will to rebuild after the Chicago fire. In the main picture she beckons towards you with a disturbingly flat stare]

What a giant statue of her would look like, over the bascule bridges of downtown Chicago, with what looks like the Wrigley Building in the background

Some immigrants in Chicago now fear ICE more than gunfire Donald Trump's deployment of federal agents to cities is based on the disproven claim that immigrants commit a disproportionate number of violent crimes.

“They are taking innocent people, and it’s affecting the community,” Raquel said. “You can’t even be at peace in your own home.”

A watercolor painting of a storefront. A metal grate is closed over the recessed entrance to the store, but boots and shoes and a shirt can be seen in display windows. A sign hands above the entrance and part of it reads “DO SHOE STORE”. Above that is part of a sign that reads “LGADO” and to the right of that is part of another sign that reads “DEL”. Below this last sign is a glass door that leads to some orange steps that disappear into the dark.

GHISLAINE MAXWELL: here we go, boss. a big book of letters from all of your horrible best friends

JEFF EPSTEIN: oh neat! look at this one from Donald

GHISLAINE: that one's fake actually

Used to be called the Coyote Building. I’d long avoided it because it seemed bougie. But the views are spectacular.

This place has my favorite view of Chicago. I’ve not found many that are this expansive from the west.

Just a couple of crazy kids. Our present nightmare is not unrelated to the impunity of the criminal Reaganites.

Our nasty RINO speaker stabs POTUS in the back. If we Republicans can’t stand up for our pedos, we might as well throw in the towel.

And yes this will hang in my classroom

The colors/quality seem so good.

I have a disease.

May I share on Elon’s XeepBlorp?

This is glorious.

Hey @blagojevism.bsky.social it now exists in the flesh

As a bus driver, ride-sharing and delivery services are why l'm late 70% of the time. Their drivers are always in bus stops and bus lanes

Great point from a transit worker

Not familiar with that quaint tradition.

Smudgetown (not today,yesterday, today was a gorgeous day).

Hi, Whet! It’s inside, to the left of the entryway.

Loop denizens, did you guys know that the Harlan Berk coin shop has an insane original Ed Paschke portrait of the proprietor (the eponymous Harlan Berk)?
