@chi_urbanist It would make more sense if the route ran to at least Union Park in West Loop and ran down Clark or State before jogging over to McCormick Place/Wintrust to terminate… but idk much 😅

@Roku one of your updates completely crashed my Roku brand TV. Any support tips? This seems to be a common issue in recent weeks.

Another gate attendant who announced a flight cancelation said something to travelers about voting differently in the next election. They cut themselves short, saying that they're not trying to get too political and then announced that they had to take their mandatory break.

I’m ngl, the photographer could’ve picked a shot where I didn’t look like I left the stove on

Wow, well researched, scathing Tribune op-ed by Nik Hunder on why the mayor re-appointed 2 unqualified allies to CTA and NITA boards shortly before the deadline – to make it harder for alders to oppose them. 🔥

Cardi B: Somebody wants to erase the history in the schools, but you got to keep these histories alive. Let me not get too political. I might get in trouble

Last week, Mayor Brandon Johnson joined DSS and LiUNA Laborers Local 1001 Union to celebrate this year’s class of the General Laborer Trainee Program, a partnership offering recent CPS grads a pathway to full-time employment with the City as a laborer.

@chi_urbanist While we’re at it, let’s extend it to South Shore and Midway

@nonstopbutterc1 @ChicagoContrar1 An eyesore is an egregious critique of a beautiful structure that serves as a functional conversation piece. I wish they’d focus on the real issues Chicago is facing.

[Mayor Brandon Johnson @ChicagosMayor]

Intercity bus service connects hundreds of thousands of people to work, family, and opportunity every year. That's not something we can take for granted.

We had a responsibility to protect this essential public asset, and today we delivered.

I'm proud my administration led the charge to get this done.

We are working to respond to more than 5,000 tree emergencies from yesterday’s storm. Crews are out citywide today clearing debris. Please take caution around downed trees, and if you have or see one, report it to 311 by using the CHI311 app or visiting https://t.co/tQdWrqXgDT.”
