10yrs ago while covering a story, Stroger Hospital police famously arrested me. My call to the @suntimes, from a hospital basement holding cell, was taken by @dahaar. As I breathlessly explained what happened, he had 1 question – 1/2

We're sad to say goodbye to our own @dahaar, an editor with more than 40 years of journalism experience. Behind the scenes, his steady hand molded countless breaking news and criminal justice stories. He'll be missed, particularly by the many colleagues who count him as a friend.

I completed a chore today that I have been putting off for 4 weeks.

It took me 3.5 minutes.

I will learn nothing from this.

it's crazy when you see a photo for the first time and recognize that in 100 years historians are going to use it as shorthand to summarize the whole era you're living through right now.

“I’ll just get gas in the morning” is one of the worst decisions you can make as an adult

@WiNationalist A group of us went in on a Saturday last October and it was potluck night. We didn’t know, hadn’t brought anything, were told to get a bowl anyway. 🫡

Juneteenth is fun because you get to see all of the "you know Republicans ended slavery" people complain about a holiday that celebrates the end of slavery.
