Congratulations to the M’s other great #51… Rey Quiñones!

The face that launched a thousand SBs

What a view!

They’re first in their division, let’s hope for a deep playoff run

They play 120 games right? He’s so close!

One of my favourite things is when men in groups geek out about their shared interest or hobby so hard that they enter this state where they are all small boys again, unconstrained by toxic masculinity and masculine social expectations.

It’s rare to observe and it’s wonderful when it happens.

Bahgod that’s Lloyd McClendon’s music?!

He’s trying to get the story killed because of how innocent he is.

Each show has 15 pages of notes at that depth, the guy is relentless.

Smoking On CTA Trains Is 'Pervasive' — And It's Time For A Crackdown, Alderman Says Downtown Ald. Bill Conway (34th), who has been rumored to have mayoral ambitions, is trying to tackle CTA's long-running smoking problem as state lawmakers sort out its dire financial woes.

Is throwing offenders out of the train and into the tracks an option? For first offense they can get 15 seconds to climb out in time. blockclubchicago.org/2025/06/18/s...

"We are devastated and heartbroken at the loss of our parents, Melissa and Mark. They were the bright lights at the center of our lives, and we can't believe they are gone. Their love for us was boundless. We miss them so much. "We want everyone to know that we are both safe and with loved ones. We are grateful for the outpouring of love and support we have received, and we appreciate your respect for our family's privacy as we grieve. "Our family would like to thank law enforcement for their swift action that saved others and for the coordination across communities that led to the arrest of the man who murdered our parents. We especially would like to thank the officers who were first on the scene to our parents' home and their heroic attempts to rescue our mom and dad. "Our parents touched so many lives, and they leave behind an incredible legacy of dedication to their community that will live on in us, their friends, their colleagues and co-workers, and every single person who knew and loved them. "If you would like to honor the memory of Mark and Melissa, please consider the following: • Plant a tree. • Visit a local park and make use of their amenities, especially a bike trail. • Pet a dog. A golden retriever is ideal, but any will do. • Tell your loved ones a cheesy dad joke and laugh about it. • Bake something — bread for Mark or a cake for Melissa, and share it with someone. • Try a new hobby and enjoy learning something. • Stand up for what you believe in, especially if that thing is justice and peace. "Hope and resilience are the enemy of fear. Our parents lived their lives with immense dedication to their fellow humans. This tragedy must become a moment for us to come together. Hold your loved ones a little closer. Love your neighbors. Treat each other with kindness and respect. The best way to honor our parents' memory is to do something, whether big or small, to make our community just a little better for someone else."

Please read and share this statement from Sophie and Colin Hortman, children of Rep. Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark.
