Portillo's CEO Michael Osanloo resigns immediately The Oak Brook-based restaurant chain known for its Chicago-style hot dogs and Italian beef sandwiches has recently seen slow restaurant sales.

please someone save Portillo's from whatever happened to it the last 5 years chicago.suntimes.com/work/2025/09...

This is like how people who watch Succession think everyone watches Succession but actually the vast majority of people just watch NCIS on CBS

Naked Gun at the drive-in was a throwback and such a blast, my favorite scene is near the end when Frank and the villain have a showdown that results in a bit so silly and hilarious I couldn’t think straight for 30 seconds

Appreciative of Jon Stewart and The Daily Show for amplifying a Jewish perspective on Gaza that needs to be part of the conversation youtu.be/X5kXCdzt_us?...

Ate an everything bagel dog for breakfast, happy Sunday in Chicago

It’s kinda amazing to see when the DNC decides to care about its procedural rules versus when it doesn’t

Happy baseball day to those who celebrate

The Sun-Times is losing some amazing journalists. They wouldn't want us to stop. The bad news: 35 staffers — including 23 in the newsroom — took a Chicago Public Media buyout and most are leaving today. But their sacrifice will help ensure the newspaper's future.

On a sad Friday morning, here is a lovely farewell to the many Sun-Times staffers leaving today.

There is no getting around it — the talent vacuum created by these losses will require a lot of us to step up like never before. We hope to deliver for you all.

Chicago Sun-Times to lose 20% of staff after buyout offer Columnists, editorial writers and many more head for the exits as the paper's nonprofit owner, Chicago Public Media, deals with fiscal hardship.

Thirty employees of the Chicago Sun-Times — around one in five on its payroll — have agreed to resign after a buyout offer.

The departures primarily affect writers and editors, many of whom have extensive experience at the newspaper.

Some deeply sad days at the Sun-Times seeing so many of my talented colleagues taking buyouts to leave the organization. These are devastating losses of talent and institutional know-how, and Chicago will be worse off without them doing their work.

this man is truly one of the funniest people to ever live

I love that these moves set up the Bears to have no excuse in Caleb's development.

They got the best offensive-minded coach available. They aggressively turned over the entire IOL after a disastrous season. The weapons in place are still reasonably appealing.

Now it's up to Caleb to be great.

What a beautiful little movie Flow was, easy to see how it won so many awards

probably never been more amazed by a new piece of tech than when I first got a PSP

"Introductory rate" that's already twice as much as the CTA bus fare

finally watching Succession and I still cannot stop laughing about Greg's Congressional hearing testimony, "If it is to be said, so it be ... so it is"

missed Connor O'Malley tickets I have badly dropped the ball

you don't get to trade Luka Doncic and if you do the basketball gods should punish you

not to laugh at another team and player's misfortune but the Mavericks having this blow up in their face in every conceivable way feels like the world functioning properly for once

I wish artists would stop pretending Lollapalooza is an equivalent tour stop to playing some smaller venue in Chicago that doesn't cost $200/day to be around 100,000 teenagers

a 5-bag masterpiece, On Cinema remains a crowning achievement of nonsense

Baked goods have been acquired

going to Akahoshi Ramen for the first time tonight, the guy goes by "Ramen Lord" online so I'm gonna have to assume this may be a life-changing experience

still can't believe one of the only good pop rock bands of this era is fronted by Bono's son

Kind of astonishing that alderpersons and Johnson feel like they have the mandate from the public to pass something like this when public approval is so low. Do they just expect no accountability down the road?

Extremely satisfying sound to this shot, great work by the rim microphones

My conspiracy theory brain still cannot wrap my head around the Luka trade being a good faith decision by Dallas. Even without evidence the trade is so insane I’m still like thinking 🤨

Astonishing how much time and money WB Games wasted in the last 5 years trying to make live service games that nobody wanted

Politicians who claim to be progressive while attacking independent local journalists, falsely painting them as “corporate media,” is a total embarrassment. There is no progressive movement that doesn’t involve a fair reporting of the news.
