Trump's 90k sq ft ballroom is so large it could seat 7,500โ€“9,000 people, depending on staging, service aisles, etc. For centuries, presidents have managed diplomacy without a space the size of a convention hall. This will be a monument to his ego. It will be costly to maintain and sit mostly empty.

I fell down the stairs at this subway station a few weeks ago. I'm off the crutches, but not ready to take the stairs again. Instead, I'm taking this elevator, which smells like the name of a 2001 Broadway musical I've never seen. #Chicago #JacksonStation #CityLife

A dear friend of mine found out I'll be traveling to Lisbon in January, so she printed out a map, marked it up with all her favorite haunts and dropped it off at our building. How sweet is that!

Chicago voted Best Big City in the US for 9th year in a row Chicago was named the Best Big City in the United States by the Condรฉ Nast Traveler Readersโ€™ Choice Awards.

Our crime-ridden, war-torn little shithole wins again.

ICE boats trawling the Chicago River. This is the DUMBEST thing I've seen in my entire life. No exaggeration. What's next? Humvees loaded with armed, masked agents patrolling Disney's Main Street U.S.A.?

Since I'm in Illinois, I'd like to clarify this is Champagne, not Champaign. What's in your basket?

This is not a normal communication from a leader of a developed nation, much less the President of the United States. I can't believe our country is living through this. #Chicago #FUCKyouTRUMP

This is for anyone who's a fan of fire trucks and stations or "Chicago Fire" or The Chicago Fire or firemen and firewomen or even Mrs. O'Leary's cow. #Chicago

They're putting up fencing around the federal buildings downtown. I'm guessing this means they are expecting something bad to happen. Imminently. #Chicago
