And you have to present your ideas in studio, which is just training you for your career

I genuinely think that architecture programs do a great job of training you how to think, find problems and solve problems.

Six racists on the Supreme Court that might overturn the VRA. Pack that court dems like it’s the second coming of FDR as soon as possible

Love when car repairs have parts that come from Mexico and Germany with insane tariffs. In the meantime all my construction projects are 20% more because of tariffs. But here’s $40 billion for Argentina. Just a bunch of grifters that should be taxed at 300% according to orange blob math

It’s chaos. Pure anarchy caused by antifa waves

View of Lake Michigan on a perfect fall day

Morning run through war torn Chicago where I battled patios filled with people at brunch, strollers, dogs walking, and some waves on Lake Michigan’s shoreline. Just devastating

Kidnapped children that we brainwashed to be sent back to Ukraine? What about the other stolen kids?

Mussolini’s fascist architecture was a modern reinterpretation of Roman architecture but this losers β€œstyle” is pathetic copying that doesn’t even match the proportions or rules of Roman times. He shits on everything he touches including this country

The criminals in Chicago are the ICE thugs kidnapping people off the streets

Made it through the Chicago war zone of baseball fields, tall buildings, the lakefront path filled with runners and cyclists, and golf course. But we did get to the Great Lake where there was the start of a rainstorm. We barely survived #dogsofbluesky

Lowest crime rates in decades. Lowest murder rate in decades. All the illegal guns confiscated come from red states - mostly Indiana and Mississippi. Should we build a wall between us and Indiana? I’m just asking the question

Moments like that make me love this city more.
But I hope Noem, miller, Vance and Trump (if he’s still aliveπŸ˜‚) all end up in The Hague for crimes against humanity

So I kindly ask them to move a little and they did, while the cabbies face lit up pointing at the screen and then himself saying β€œVenezuela, Venezuela! β€œ I smiled back and said you’re both from there. That’s why I love Chicago. Totally safe and people connecting.

During the last cubs home game I sat on a bench outside Wrigley watching on the Jumbotron. A cabbie pulled over and got out to talk to a friend he saw walking down the street.
They started to move closer to me and slightly block my view…

Call up the national guard yourself to protect us. Make it their mission to stop ICE from tormenting our neighbors

The theater of fascism, where the only thing that's real is the fear that it intends to provoke.
