Hamnet The RSC returns to launch the US tour of “elegant & beguiling” adaptation of Maggie O’Farrell’s novel about Agnes and William Shakespeare…

What's on tap today? I'm off to Chicago Shakespeare Theater to give the Scholar PreAmble for the Royal Shakespeare Company's production of "Hamnet." Wish me luck!

I'll have a second run at my PreAmble on 3/1. Hope you Chicagoans and burb folk can come on out!

It is easy to miss that little pink blur of a tongue!

I enjoyed the long period of stability and riches, like any nation state should.

NBC ran a piece where Mary Carrillo went to Norway to find out why they're so good at the Winter Olympics and i was yelling BECAUSE IT'S COLD THERE

then she went to a little tiny ski jump for kids and was like "it's free, equipment is provided, & they don't emphasize results"

oh!

“‘I am begging my fellow politicians, my fellow Americans to realize that right now in this country we are not fighting over policy or political party,’ Pritzker said. ‘We are fighting over whether we are going to be a civilization rooted in empathy and kindness—or one rooted in cruelty and rage.’”

That's in line with why I don't like to call people "old" (in their presence). Technically true but... ouch.

Oh right, $69. I forgot my coupon had already been deducted from the price. That's insane to me.

Awwww!

I don't get how/why people use things like doordash a lot. A $37 order at the restaurant is $64 from doordash. We'll just order from a place that does its own delivery. Rats though, I wanted that jackfruit dish!

We did Port and Park for brunch today, then a few places for the lakeview east dive bar thing. But all indoors. It is still Feb after all! 🤣

I was wondering because of brunch club and hoping to see you.

Solid work, brunch club. Good job. A+ all around.

I haven't spent any time looking into it because, partially, I didn't realize it was still an issue. My desktop has the music but the I don't have the logitech replacement (lyrion) going properly.

Are you doing inside at all? What are your parameters, if so?

January was pretty dang cold, this is welcome.

Instead of corn mash US whiskey, we're experimenting with the Nixta corn liqueur and the Ancho Reyes verde liqueur.

Watch this space. #Cocktails

Friday for some but Cornday for me.
Grits for breakfast.
Corn chips and salsa for lunch.
Elotes for early dinnerish snack.
Popcorn for late dinnerish snack.
All washed down with a corn mash.
CORNDAY

Their logic lost its way in the 80s and has somehow spiraled into a holodeck that becomes reality.

A grey & white graphic of a pen on paper. It reads: WITNESS SLIP! You know the drill, with a link to My.ILGA.gov.

If you have a direct link to create a witness slip 1. Click on the Link provided. 2. Fill in your information in the Identification section. Under “Firm/Business or Agency”, write 'SELF'. Only the “fax number” field is optional. 3. You can leave the Representation section blank. 4. In the Position Section, use the drop-down boxes to choose “original bill” and “Proponent” (if you support the bill) or “Opponent” (if you oppose it) 5. in the Testimony section, tick the “record of appearance only” box. 6. Click "submit slip", suffer the captcha.

Make an account for yourself at My.ILGA.gov to save your information & track your witness slips. It matters, even now, to engage with government and support legislation that puts people and the community first and that supports equity, dignity, and access to resources for all of us.

It's been a year -- beyond Old Style, what do people order at dive bars? Especially the beer-n-shot combos.

At least she has a warm spot. How much longer will she wear it?

Great thread recapping and explaining the half time show

I don't know why we rushed it.

I know that card. Sorry.

"Best strip mall halal tacos in Lakeview" sounds like a joke but El Taco Toro on Irving Park is genuinely fantastic. Cheap, open late, solid lineup of tacos/taco shop fare plus weird stuff like birria pizza and ramen. Also! Crunchwraps!!!

Time to vote for the other 5 snow plows!
