everyone in Chicago right now is like

"Bro!"

I am right there with you, having lost a good chunk of weight in the past couple months. I am layering way way more than I was!

RIP Tony Fitzpatrick, an incredible Chicago artist who played Jack Birdbath on Patriot, maybe one of my favorite TV characters ever

White people who have spent decades thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic and “Every Breath You Take” is a great wedding song are suddenly very concerned about not being able to understand lyrics to some songs at the Super Bowl halftime show.

"There's no such thing as bad publicity" I say when the video of me getting kicked in the nads cracks a billion views

the new one has a sequence that deliberately emulates the exact appearance of the original and it looks so much better than the rest of the movie

like turning on the lights at Laser Quest!

I mean of course it was. But I love Tron and it would be nice if they made a good one!!

I watched Tron and it was so stupid

I love living in a city full of immigrants and tons and tons of people who are not at all like me and not like each other. It makes us all better and it makes our city better. I know I’m preaching to the choir by saying this on the lib app but I sometimes just get so overwhelmed by how special it is
