I agree, they are like this on purpose and the good of Canada does not factor into it one bit.

This exasperated me: โ€œThis tragedy is a devastating reminder of how fragile life is and how important it is that we all look out for one another on our roads,โ€ the mayor said.

Dammit, NO! Mohawk and Upper Wentworth is one of the most dangerous intersections in the city. It was DESIGNED that way 1/2

Can we just pause to note that this is where they are now? That fear for Trump and fear of Trump leads to this? Defending Jeffrey Epsteinโ€˜s ACTIONS (โ€˜not a pedophileโ€™!) in order to defend Donnie.

It is so morally corrupt.

Not sure how I survived childhood from the times the bats living in our attic:
-flew around our living spaces
-got stranded on the lawn where I could catch them
-defecated in their nest
I could go on

The only thing that appeals to me less than being stuck in traffic on the 401 is being stuck in traffic underneath the 401. Really, just have the funeral at that point.

Just throwing it out there, Netflix spent about $220M.. on Witcher S4 ๐Ÿคฎ
Surely Rafe and team could have produced something superior for that cost..

Conversely, the violence in Witcher S4 seemed unnecessary for the plot..
I dunno what the game lore is like, but the show is such an exercise in WHYYyYyY

In the last month, the FBI has charged players from two different leagues for roles in sports-betting scandals.

Either legalized gambling is exposing corruption thatโ€™s always been there.

Or itโ€™s creating it.

Either answer is terrible for sports.

I Want You to Understand Chicago
Politics Chicago
2025-11-08

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.

Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again.

An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleaguesโ€™ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next.

Understand what it is to pray in Chicago. On September 19th, Reverend David Black, lead pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, was praying outside the ICE detention center in Broadview when a DHS agent shot him in the head with pepper balls. Pepper balls are never supposed to be fired at the head because they can seriously injure, or even kill. โ€œWe could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof,โ€ Black recalled. He is not the only member of the clergy ICE has assaulted. Methodist pastor Hannah Kardon was violently arrested on October 17th, and Baptist pastor Michael Woolf was shot with pepper balls on November 1st.

Understand what it is to sleep in Chicago. On the night of September 30th, federal agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter to execute a raid on an apartment building on the South Shoโ€ฆ

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.
