Also, you can 100% make hamburger helper without the box, but you know whoever's making 'boy kibble' is making something that tastes much worse than hamburger helper.

As an election judge, yes, they can do same day registration. I'd recommend trying it at an early voting site instead of election day because it's often harder for young people to prove their home addresses. The board of elections site will say what documents to bring.

If you early vote the weekend before the election, you'll probably have a longer wait line than if you voted on election day.

I think @natenewtonmeter.bsky.social is also of this opinion and might have recommendations?

I have heard women report that it's important for them to have a woman's chamois.

I thought the park/zoo didn't really want beavers over there? Maybe I misread @robertloerzel.bsky.social 's beaver story.

Agreed. If you ride this train line, you'll do your best not to have to do so again.

I appreciate the Illinois Community Power fund working to help our suburban neighbors fight ICE harassing, kidnapping, and killing our neighbors.

As soon as you actually take road space from cars, busses are a much better solution for everyone.

A photo of a light-colored cat with a gray face and ears and wide blue eyes. Unknown forces are holding up to the cat’s ear the handset of a beige antique-type touch tone phone. A rectangular speech bubble with a jagged tail has been drawn on the photo to indicate it is the sound coming out of the handset. Words inside the bubble read, ‘Maybe it will happen today…’

The whole order of succession is full of bad options. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_...

We sold Kuwait the weapons to do it, and then trained them how to use them.

Logistics question: I thought you could only sign one petition and have your signature count? This might be different for federal vs local positions I guess?

They want us using these things at work but they really don't want wrong answers and our wrong answer buttons have no feedback loop into the model so we have to constantly deal with the same wrong answers over and over.

Why not the official pastry?

My favorite part is we're the jerks because we don't want to put up with terrible opinion writing.

The main thing I've learned from reading terrible opinions is I can't even trust opinions I agree with in the paper to have been written with any research or real backing.

You have to pay for them to not scam you, nice.

I continue to think donor advised funds are a financialized scheme and are not the best thing for charities but are good for financial advisors.

square light orange graphic with black and neon text that says: “Join Liberation Library’s Steering Committee. Liberation Library is looking for new Steering Committee members. Join us in building meaningful solidarity with young people who are incarcerated across Illinois.” In a bubble in black text it says: “Apply by March 31st at bit.ly/JoinLibLib”. In small text at the bottom of the graphic in black text says: “To learn more about Liberation Library visit liberationlib.org”. In the background are translucent bubbles and hearts and a stack of colorful books on the left side, the Lib Lib logo in black in a heart towards the bottom right.

For Chicago folks: Liberation Library is looking to recruit additional members to its Steering Committee (SC). Apply by March 31st. It's a great group. bit.ly/JoinLibLib

#Chicago you are amazing

"Must stop people stealing my intellect property, that I created by stealing other peoples intellectual property" is certainly an ask.

Time for a War Powers Resolution vote. Let’s get everyone on the record.

I think they're in an even smaller area

I just heard on @citycastchicago.bsky.social that waymo is north side and loop only???

I feel like I've seen a lot of this with delivery bikes in NYC in winter.

Elected officials and military advisors on TV will never model this behavior, but:

It is perfectly legitimate to be AGAINST WAR because war is bad.

You don't have to recite your way through a whole litany of apologetics about various sins of foreign governments first.

I'm 26 years into my career and trying my best to make this current job my last on my terms instead of on theirs.

It's a good day to figure out how to get those humble bundle books on my phone.
