The most ascendant version of America is, unfortunately, in Dallas. I went there to see our future.

Was downtown last night, and this incident seemingly did nothing to keep the crowds away from the Michigan Ave lights festival. Which proves that despite the occasional high profile incidents people aren’t deterred by them.

Macys on State Street is really leaning into Marshall Fields Nostalgia this year. The windows look great. Hard to believe they had an entire studio here at one point that would redo all the window displays weekly. Listened to a pair of parents explain Marshall Fields to the kids

Edgewater is kind of a microcosm of Illinois politics. A backwards low density hamlet absolutely dominated politically by that big city dense area with skyscrapers to the Northeast

Interesting fixer upper condo just hit the market on the lakefront in Lakeview. 3 bed, 3 baths. 1926 pre-war. Classic floorpan. Rough around the edges but would clean up great. Asking $399K with monthly assessments of $1.6K/month, not horrible www.realtor.com/realestatean...

I was told the shopping was really good which led me to looking into Japanese menswear and I'm rolling I can't buy any of that
My research keeps coming back around to the egg sandwiches from 7-11
What do people do in Japan some friends want to go but all I know is a couple of FLW buildings

Some other reporting is coming out saying this is the guys 23rd arrest and has a history of arson. Was on ankle monitoring and recently allowed to leave his house during the day? I’m not saying it’s easy but some of these judges are making really bad calls

I finally got to see Louis Sullivan and Dankmar Adler’s Auditorium Theatre last night. When it opened in 1889 it was the largest opera house in the world. Today it remains probably one of the most important showcases in American architectural history.

Trump giving Bill Clinton a blowjob is not illegal. However, Putin owning photos of these acts and using them as Kompromat and blackmail as implied in the Epstein emails is a national security catastrophe. As well as both being part of the Epstein rape trafficking network.
