Rare Kam Buckner L. I’d sooner be forgotten a thousand times than have a highway named after me.

Here’s a better idea. In 2020 we renamed (Stephan A.) Douglas Park to (Anna and Frederick) Douglass Park.

Let’s change (Andrew) Jackson Park to (Jesse) Jackson Park.

Third. You can't "do you know who I am" through a police stop and be the better choice.

If you are voting by mail, PLEASE drop it directly at an early voting location instead of mailing it to be sure it arrives on time and is counted.

I love fixing a bigger problem but the other complaint from my bosses is iteration time. Apparently I was supposed to volunteer to do more work up front or ask to do more work up front when my boss wants me to deliver faster and make 'better' decisions.

I'm so much under the microscope at work that because I spent time solving a problem around the dev system instead of fixing the dev system ( not part of what was requested of me) my boss is questioning my decision making. I spent maybe an hour on the workaround that's not final product.

A close up of the sidewalk pavement with various sized balls of ice. The biggest probably the same diameter as a quarter.

Roads are flooded and the sidewalks are covered in hail and I think the rain is done for now.

Here's how you know they're number one -- I have to avoid the two closest bike shops to my house, and another bike shop that gives me a great discount to get to Tailwind, but I still do it because I know they're going to fix my problems.

Gas is expensive and bike commuting is fun! If you’re considering it, buy from your local shop. It’s not just a bike but also a long term care relationship. I will gladly give you local recommendations (but I struggle with west side, south west locations)

Obvi number 1 is Tailwind in Albany Park

I will help you turn your car commute into a bike commute.

Finding a chill route, fixing your bike up, making your butt not hurt - whatever is holding you back, we can hurdle it.

Trans woman are women, even if they win at sports.

Also, whatever the Olympic standards are, most sports aren't that. Most instances of sports should err on the side of inclusion whether or not international competition of that sport does.

" In 2019, it became apparent from the latest research that male advantage isn’t removed by testosterone suppression" is a lie by him. That is not what the research found. The research has consistently found that trans women are on an equal footing if not a disadvantage under the old IOC requirement

These sorts of missiles wouldn't be in silos -- they're not big enough to require it. You also don't want a stationary target for your enemies to bomb so they're probably on mobile launchers.

Please sign this petition for proactive inspections of rental properties. Think about the drafty, moldy shitholes you’ve rented and how nice it would’ve been for the city to see the way your landlord lets you live.

The thing I learned from the last time gas was $5 was that I have no idea what the gas prices are going to be in a year, up or down. I'd have guessed they were never going below $4 then.
