Sometimes sports journo, sometimes comms pro, always a maker. Love Chicago. Probably making a Taskmaster or Murder, She Wrote joke. I won't answer any questions you can Google. I'm here for conversation, not debate. I mute whining about officials.

Hey so I wrote a book! It's a middle-grade book on Angel Reese. It's a book specifically written for libraries and schools, so I will not be hurt if you don't buy it. But your kid may want to check it out at the library!

Athletes are NOT like us.
Lindsey Vonn says in press conference from Italy that she tore her ACL in a crash Friday — but aims to race in the Olympic downhill Sunday anyway. Said she skied today, and will wear a knee brace.

anyway, I just got Chicago State's paperwork before a good dozen or so P4 institutions, so I don't ever want to hear anybody use "we dont have enough staff" as excuse. CHICAGO STATE GOT THEIR SHIT TOGETHER BEFORE MICHIGAN, FLORIDA OR ALABAMA. CHICAGO STATE. CHICAGO ISN'T EVEN A STATE.

Oh, This Would Be Epic!
Whoever submitted 'Monty the Piping Plower' to the annual Chicago "You Name A Snowplow" Contest is genius!
Fellow Chicagoans, we would be honored if Monty made your list of six votes. Voting is now open through February 14.

I was a White House ethics lawyer.
I used to advise people not to even accept a free cup of coffee from someone who had interests before them. And staff followed those rules.
I can’t even find the words to describe the scale of Trump’s corruption here.

Foreign countries are bribing our president to sell out the American people.
Trump family businesses made $187 MILLION from this deal, and just months later he gave the UAE some of our most top-secret AI tech.
They are selling our national security to the highest bidder.

I am completely serious when I say the existence of these kinds of bars that predominate Upper Midwest neighborhoods are a big reason why Wisconsin hasn’t turned hard right as its demographics would suggest.
These kinds of human scale, mixed-use Midwest dive bars are illegal to open and operate in most American neighborhoods.

They're afraid.
One told me she resents how her undocumented coworkers spend their days cleaning the rooms of agents who are “hunting down their family members.”

To process the chaos, I'm spending a few minutes each night stitching a news diary--embroidering tiny icons representing an important story of the day.
One month in, and it feels like I've already sewn a year's worth of news. But it helps me make sense of it all, so I think I can manage 11 more.
