Once you see Chicago's government as an attempt by fools to remake Chicago according to their Marxist belief system, you cannot un-see it.
God, I'm so proud of this. I feel so lucky to be a part of this newsroom and to get to play a role in making it stronger. We at @CTGuild are so lucky to fight alongside one another. So many people here were brave, smart, tireless and strong. I'm so grateful for us!
FINALLY: After six years, we at the Chicago Tribune Guild have won our first contract. We are so proud of what we ratified today with near unanimous support: raises, bonuses, salary minimums, AI protections, seniority rights & more. How did we get this done? (1/7)
i’m not crying i just have some fair wages stuck in my eye 🥲

Hagler vs Hearns, Round 1, 1985. If you’ve seen it before, you’re welcome. If you haven’t, the next 3 minutes may change your life.
I don't know a single undocumented person. Neither do you.
The internet is having a melt down that a Jewish woman of the land 2,000 years ago is being played by a Jewish woman of the land today. Why? Because it reminds us of Jewish indigeneity before conquests & defeats their white colonizer narrative - a lie they’ll die to protect.
No dude we straight up don’t have enough houses because we haven’t built enough of them for 40 years.
We have an insane amount of energy, wealth, stuff etc. The fact that people are angry and have no security is not a problem of "scarcity," to be solved by "abundance."
Interesting.
A reminder that folks who are leaving Twitter are doing so not because they were not permitted to express their opinion, but because you *are* permitted to express yours.
One of the best to ever do it, I think.
“I tell ya, life isn’t easy. Today’s been a terrible day. I got up this morning, picked up my shirt, a button fell off. Picked up my briefcase, the handle fell off. I’m afraid to go to the bathroom.”
Anyone else seen this? It’s like he created the world’s first advertisement for why the spokesman for the ad should kill himself. 😕
Entrepreneurship can be tough. Really tough. But I wouldn’t trade it for this hell in a million years.
Listen to me very carefully: If you’re a knowledge worker and you’re not learning ChatGPT, etc. now… You’re toast, dead… The freight train is coming for you.
Mike Tyson has now said two of the best things I’ve ever heard.
Ever consider when reading one of these posts that X/Twitter sometimes is the circle jerk that is LinkedIn.
More people should consider talking to their boss before deciding it's time to leave. Not after getting an offer... Not after interviewing... Before that.
If true, what this person claims is pretty damning. Mayor Johnson, Chicago Teacher’s Union, SEIU Health, United Working Families, Marxist Alders, take note: You are the company you keep.
When I worked with Kennedy she thought white people should quit their jobs so that people of color could have them. She never made clear what jobs whites were allowed to have in her new world order but mine wasn’t one of them. apple.news/A7g__SMO-QJeoZ…
Excellent points made here. “You have to be able to govern well.” Progressives have shown they don’t, and they are partly to blame for ushering back in Trump the Sequel.
This is a remarkable clip. Ezra Klein effectively admits what we’ve been saying for years: Democrats have utterly failed to govern major cities well, and it should be no surprise that the country moved right.
Miriam has a point. 🙌
the charter representative from @CTULocal1 is making the argument for why charters shouldn't exist because they prioritize profits over students But instead she asks that Acero (and all charters) be kept open, in the nth degree, forever
The Trump transition is everything liberals hoped for. Actually, it has probably exceeded their hopes. A perfect balance of scandal and crazy and lack of experience and qualifications.
This is true.
As a husband or wife you need to be “sexually harassing” each other as much as possible.
Hmmmmm…time does weird things to minds. I’d forgot he got a consideration. But super glad Obama didn’t nominate RFK Jr.
1/ why is SF so slow at ballot counting!? on election night ~54.9% of votes were counted. 9 days later there are still 15.8K ballots (~3.8%) left to count. today my team went to @SFElections and discovered 9 bottlenecks. thread 🧵 1/17
WTF? This is stunning. It’s not about what’s best for Chicago. It’s about the CTU’s interests, which aren’t always Chicago’s. But Mayor BJ is a shill for them. Yet he campaigned on, “Who better to deliver bad news to friends than a friend?” Which is a lie he told.
Chicago's Board of Education is in closed session at its special meeting. The board added a last-minute agenda item: "To consider ... the appointment, employment, compensation, discipline, performance or dismissal of specific employees." All eyes on CPS CEO Pedro Martinez.
