Trump is rushing to build his ballroom. A review process could take years. The National Capital Planning Commission has taken years to approve much smaller White House projects than a ballroom planned by President Trump.

I am voting for whoever burns this to the ground.

All the stupidity of the next four years.

Every press flack's dream come true.

This should go in the Bluesky terms of service

Ooof

$70 billion in capex this year for this:

"The wave has come as the administration is seeking to change the subject from its broken promise to release files related to the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein."

Honest to God, it's the first time I can recall that the media has said the "HE'S TRYING TO DISTRACT YOU" thing out loud.

🤯🤯🤯

Fascinating

No wonder the stupidest shit is being done. The stupidest person whose family makes money on building homes is leading the way.

Shedd Aquarium Makes History in Breakthrough Procedure for Kimalu, a Beluga Whale | Shedd Aquarium On Tuesday, July 1, Kimalu, a 12-year-old beluga whale at Chicago's Shedd Aquarium, underwent a first-of-its-kind surgery to remove a growing network of cysts near her blowhole on her head and neck. I...

What an astounding story. The good folks at Shedd anesthesized a beluga whale for surgery to remove cysts.

RIP Ozzy Osbourne, here are 7 heavy metals limited in our sewer system.

Personal opinion and user experience here.

This product is awesome in monotonous, slow highway traffic. Literally the first time in my life that I don't particularly care if there's a traffic jam (unless I'm late).

fucking asparagus

If you see this, post a vampire.

Did not know Alaska gets the most tremors.

This is the book I want to read, not 5 more books that Hunter was a problem, Jill wasn't helpful either, Richetti and Donlin were dinguses and circled the wagon, and then a bunch of other staff threw up their hands.

Why did everyone let that happen when everyone foresaw Trump would be this bad?

Does the math really work here @liszt.bsky.social or is this just ego rage?

Now do socio economic status, body mass index, % of the population that's partially or fully disabled, distance between home and job by economic status, the number of days in the year below 45 degrees and above 80, cross all of those by trip purpose and frequency. Then add commuters to every chart.

That's not remotely true.

It would behoove transpo folks to remember what the population looks like as a whole, the full range of trip purposes, and what makes life easier.

Policy shouldn't be designed around 25-45 YO office workers w means and a high tolerance for weather communiting to flex jobs

A toadlet sits amid sand and plants.

The Montrose Point tadpoles have become tiny toadlets. I just saw two hopping across the cement sidewalk into the bird sanctuary.

Mini electric propulsion + charging infrastructure is going to change urban transportation like nothing since the invention of cars.

Chicago is too cold/windy/weird half the year compared to South, but I want to see dedicated lanes to these types of vehicles. Cost plus ease makes it a no brainer.

Cornhole Is a Popular ESPN Sport Now. Don’t Be Mad. When the network delayed the MLB’s All-Star Selection Show for the bean bag-throwing competition, angry baseball fans needed some perspective.

we would never. you know that.

I cannot emphasize this enough.

Leftists, progressives, liberal Dems, moderates, and conservative Dems all fall for this trap.

WHINING ABOUT COVERAGE GETS YOU NOTHING.

Engaging in the fight makes you sharper. It's also an opportunity in the "attention economy" to push message. Use it.

Fun read. I don't have any debates about the rankings, but for my money the most interesting prospect right now is one I expect to start the season in Rockford, Nick Lardis. Last season he scored more goals in junior (71) than anyone has in a generation (Tavares 06-07). (1/10)

God dammit! Someone bought it!

Okay, I'm getting irrationally pissed off about stuff like this.

IT'S JULY. What in the everliving F is this doing in a Costco right now?
