Do you all understand what I mean now after visiting Chicago?

[Dan Butters @DanButtersChi]

Every Chicagoan knows this and is why so many of us won’t tolerate status quo even if it’s politically inconvenient.

We are a world-class city.

Everything from our climate, business community, to arts & entertainment…

But most importantly, our people.

Everyone else can sleep on Chicago, we know what we have.

Make no small plans… we will be the best city on earth.

Vote Kamala and avoid the Troll 2 of presidencies.

I loved the DNC roll call

[Leigh Giangreco @LeighGiangreco]

If you’re visiting Chicago for the DNC what you need to know about Malört is that it can’t hurt you if you grew up Catholic and understand that life without suffering is meaningless

My brain wouldn’t let me go on with my day until I made this.

I know there’s still a strong contingent of ‘I still call it Sears Tower’ people in Chicago, but what if we instead accepted the name change and thought of it as (Wesley) Willis Tower instead?

[meg “Yooper” bitchell @MeganBitchell]

Hmmm yes I will order a pizza for lunch and have the rest for dinner and breakfast :)

The new Avatar movie can't be good enough to overcome how much I hate wearing glasses over my glasses.

Someone should invent an alarm clock where the alarm is the sound of a dog about to throw up. Because nothing wakes me up and gets me out of bed faster than that.
