It's a shame there isn't a Bluesky Bug Zapper that can rid the world of all the people replying to this.

This story has been picked up by multiple news outlets, including the Chicago Tribune and the Fox-owned station in the city.

You know which Chicago outlet doesn't appear to have a story about this on its website?

Fun Pete Lore fact: Nick Offerman got into woodworking with help from fellow ROCKFORD NATIVE Martin McClendon, whose mother was friends/coworkers with my grandmother and whose sister was my date to senior prom.

The great @nickofferman.bsky.social sent me a copy of his new book Little Woodchucks: Offerman Woodshop's Guide to Tools and Tomfoolery. Thanks, Nick!

my sister in law lives in a heavily Hispanic suburb near the Broadview ICE base and she was pulled over by them in her Jaguar of all things for the crime of looking like she could maybe be Hispanic

Had to have a very considered talk with myself about what I will do if I see something happening while out in the war zone (aka taking the dog to doggy daycare and hitting the yuppie grocery store)

I just drove down the street a couple blocks from here. Today's the first day they've really been THIS close to me, they've been hitting different neighborhoods every day making their way slowly towards the lake.

Pretty great running errands in my neighborhood knowing the Nazi goons are lurking, and having massive fight or flight stress every time I see an SUV with out of state plates.

also depends on the salary, a 25% dip from like $75k is a much tougher call than one from, like, $225k

Coincidentally, the protesters at the Broadview ICE facility are currently in Maywood (having been moved across the street from the building by the police).

Listen to some John Prine today, who was born on this day in 1946 in Maywood, IL. Here are the places he called home.

chigeek.bsky.social @chigeek.bsky.social · Oct 10

Remembering musician John Prine on what would’ve been his 76th birthday. Here’s his childhood home at 1110 S. 1st Ave in Maywood. At the age of 22 he worked as a mailman while taking classes at the Old Town School of Folk Music. He lived at 902 N. 19th Ave in Melrose Park.

Pass it on: If you FILE A COMPLAINT about police activity, it flags the body-worn camera video so reporters can obtain it later via FOIA requests.
