People of Illinois, we need your help.

Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors.

We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

Why are the accidental hour naps where I was just-going-to-close-my-eyes-for-a-second somehow the best sleeps ever?

Why can’t I get this level of rested ness when I’m scheduled to be sleeping?!

I will not stop stalking the farmer’s market flower people—at multiple markets—until I have tuberoses in hand. They smell so good, the season is so short, and hardly anyone has them on offer—just give me the flowers and I’ll leave you alone!

Maybe tomorrow is the day?

more accurate description I’ve ever read! I have family there that I rarely see…unless they’re willing to come to Denver or Fort Collins. Tread carefully people!

get stoned, go outside, and look at the moon

Ravinia is SO magical! Plus being able to take the train in and out WITH a picnic basket?! Yessss

SO MAGICAL! I regret not getting a shirt or something, but the line was stupid long and I’m in my broke era. I wish I’d known you were there too! Gotta coordinate better next time. What shows are coming up for you?

The music, friendship, cheese plate and aperol spritzes were so good at Ravinia last night that I forgot to take any pics except these two✨

in this economy, you really have to read the room before making such an ask—better to just document and show off your value through work (and in your case, prepping and taking a vacay to show your value)

congrats!

that laptop has had it coming for a long time!

Weed saves lives - opioid deaths are 30% lower in counties with cannabis dispensaries

Please do, thank you! I’m sorry your wife isn’t feeling well enough to make it 🫶

If he doesn’t want it, I’d take it!

Happy Gizz Day!!

I’m VERY EXCITED for tonight too! We rarely get weather like this AND such a great band at Ravinia in August. It feels like the stars have aligned somehow for the most optimal cheese plate consumption situation possible

unfortunately, but there are *sometimes* context clues for the good things too

hard but worthy lesson🫶🫶

when people show you who they are, believe them the first time

maybe the most magical thing in this chaotic life is when dear friends that you haven’t been in contact with for a minute just ✨appear✨ at the exact moment you really really needed to feel loved and cared for in a specific way only THAT person could provide best🫶

there was a changing of the guards a year ago and the new guy isn’t exactly on top of things like the last amazing guy was. Such is life when PE owns everything as investments

landlord had to give keys to new tenants moving in upstairs and they got here before he did—chaos ensued and he dealt with it…somehow

Update: giant dead and stinky rat has been removed! Happy Friday indeed🙌

solid idea—really hoping landlord or city respond to my pleas for help before it comes to that. I knew I kept this pile of old New Yorkers around for a reason…

Adding internal repositories to Bluesky's workflows · bluesky-social atproto · Discussion #4068 Hey all. We're adding internal clone repos to Bluesky's workflow and I wanted to share about this proactively. TL;DR: The Bluesky team's adopting internal repos which are copies of the public repos...

Hey devs! We're adopting some internal repos into our workflows at Bluesky, and I want to be clear about why and resolve any questions you have.

TL;DR: This gives us some space to work before doing comms, but won't change any of our stance about open source & transparency.

Details here:

It’s like 5 times the size of said ladle!!! this thing was clearly eating well on deep dish and glizzys

landlord is not terribly responsive thus far and the largest thing I have resembling a shovel is a soup ladle 🫠

yw for not sharing a pic of the deceased 🫣😳🤢

today’s view is far less pleasant than yesterday’s—a rat or possum has expired on the stairs to the apartment below me. Who do I even call to get rid of him?! It’s so hot, he’s going to start smelling soon #SummerInTheCity
