When we talk about the importance of funding libraries and library workers - this is the result of being down just *six* people across the entire city of Chicago. Wherever you live, libraries have been running on shoestrings for years and years. Fighting for funding improves service you use!

There may well be active duty troops in the Middle East right now who have family members locked in ICE jails. Congress authorized Military Parole-in-Place specifically to avoid this situation. But the Trump admin has shown little care to families caught in this situation.
AILA@aila.org · 8h ago"President Donald Trump’s administration has detained dozens of parents and spouses of active-duty U.S. troops as it rolls back immigration protections for military families to pursue its mass deportation agenda." https://bit.ly/4br4M4m
It's a fallacy to think that the Trump regime is pro-military. it's pro-violence and pro-stealing-from-foreign-countries, but it's anti-military-families. As Trump has demonstrated, he thinks soldiers are "suckers" and "losers."

One of the best, funniest films I've seen this year by a wide-margin (h/t @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social) & the streamers are afraid to show it to you because crypto criticism might make boss baby mad. Worth it to see Sam Bankman-Fried squirm. HIGHEST PERSONAL RECOMMENDATION ALL CAPS. Spread the word.

People working for Trump and counting on pardons should be more concerned about him dying in office from natural causes and President Vance needing scapegoats.
I'm a big comics person and I've never seen EITHER ghost rider movie, though I've equally read very few Ghost Rider comics (until Jason Aaron / Garth Ennis did some stories).

I am not the biggest Tony Daniel fan but Firestar and Justice as X-Men is the sweetener I need. Vance needs a better mutant, less cop name though.
Al Kennedy@alkennedy.bsky.social · 2w agoIs this a book with a long-term future? No. Is it a book to serve a temporary status quo? Yes. Is that a problem? Not necessarily. Is this a book starring two New Warriors? Aw yeah

If you haven't wandered through Agora at the South end of Grant Park, do yourself a favor. It's one of my favorite sculptures in the city and it's unfortunately endangered.
