“When I was younger, so much younger than today, I never needed anybody's help in any way,” sang Paul McCartney as he began his two-night run at Chicago's United Center. Until he began his latest tour in September, he surprisingly hadn't played Help! in full since those manic days...

Jojo got back. Sweet Loretta Martin, too. So did everyone fortunate enough to witness Paul McCartney amaze a standing-room-only audience at United Center on Monday during the first of a two-night stand in, writes music critic Bob Gendron.
Review: Paul McCartney is still a legend, his songs bringing a Chicago audience together
The former Beatle led a concert of songs you know by heart, his pitch still unassailable, sharing the warmth and happiness that they bring.

This update of the 1995 documentary series is utterly authoritative. And its tweak of the Fab Four’s songs is a thing of wonder – their music absolutely thumps!

Green Day’s American Idiot was almost never made. The band scrapped an entire album (Cigarettes and Valentines) after the master tapes were stolen. Instead, they created a "punk rock opera" that changed music history forever.

No matter how long I live after we get through this dark chapter, I will never get over the immorality, the amorality, the corruption, the criminality and the cruelty in service to one of the worst humans to ever walk the earth.

And Trump is leaking this because Trump enjoys hazing and tormenting his underlings.

And sometimes, I'm ok with that.

If Trump were as focused on costs as he is on investigating his political opponents…

Maybe families wouldn't be so worried about how they're going to afford health insurance…

or groceries…
or childcare…
or rent.

But he doesn't care about you.

He only cares about himself.

So Pete Hegseth and Donald Trump really just want Mark Kelly to run for POTUS and humiliate JD Vance, right?

Bc that's the only explanation that actually makes sense.

Ranking Star Wars movies is a thing?

Okay, I'll get in on this.

1. Empire Strikes Back
2. Star Wars 1977 theatrical release
3. Rogue One
4. Return of the Jedi (because I was 11)

Everything else is somewhere between "meh" and "why. why. y u do dis?" [sad kitten dot jpg]

I couldn’t be prouder of how Chicago came together to support our neighbors.

Greg Bovino may be gone, but the lessons of community support will live on as a model to push back against Trump’s extreme enforcement raids.
Grassroots resistance swells in the wake of the immigration crackdown in Chicago
Chicago is no longer the main focus of the federal immigration crackdown. For one neighborhood group, the intense enforcement activity was a test of resistance tactics they developed eight years ago.
