It appears Kat Abughazaleh held a fundraiser dinner last night on the southwest side, per this video shared on IG by an organization and her campaign

She was slated to attend a Chicago DSA forum in Skokie but was a last-minute scratch with little explanation

The excuse yesterday was a dinner with Palestinian families so it really being a fundraising dinner is quite dishonest and kinda shitty imo.

This campaign lies so much
There’s quite a few comments in her campaign Discord server with people who appear upset by the lack of explanation about where she was at, since there was none yesterday aside from my initial reporting she wasn’t attending around 5p

Most people first heard she wasn’t there as it got started at 7

I could participate in this but I'd have the same answer honestly. My absolute favorite album ever
What's your "how can one album have so many bangers?" album.

I guess this realization isn’t as late as when they realized that climate change is a real issue and they were dumb for thinking it wasn’t. The evidence was clear on that before the show even started. They didn’t acknowledge they were wrong until 2018.
Resistance libs welcomed South Park into the anti-Trump fold with open arms. Our founder Evan Urquhart was a bit less joyous to see the anti-woke edgelords of South Park recognize, at last, the dreadful pandora's box that widespread anti-wokeness opened up.

One thing I think became more common since covid is facial hair and it is like the only positive thing to come out of covid. Not even sure why facial hair got more popular around then but it did

My opinions basically boil down to:
They are safer than Uber/Lyft.

They are not cheaper so they won’t take ridership away from CTA any more than Uber and Lyft already have.

I don’t see a reason NOT to allow them honestly.

Lawrence and Wilson stations are too close together but honestly, it also does make some sense to have both.

Lawrence has a major bus line and the red line stop is right outside of the Aragon. Wilson is a busier stop and right beside a community college.

We had one Governor who thought my ass was invisible, hopefully that shit won’t happen again.

Ahead of redistricting + an all-Dem new gov’t in Va, all parties shld keep this gospel of @SpeakerDonScott in mind re: @SenLouiseLucas On Youngkin’s failure to court Lucas, who torpedoed the so-called Glenndome: “They thought she was invisible — I bet they see her ass now.”

I hate the term “culture war” though. The people who use it the most just want to harm minority groups. But everything has to be seen as a war between “us” and “them” for those people.
Turns out the only thing worse than a GOP lead by big business interest is a GOP lead by “culture war” shitheads that bug business feels fine supporting.

A lot of people have a misconception on what “identity politics” even is and I am wondering how exactly they think it is defined.

I’m not saying this will for sure lead to a dem winning Texas. But Paxton getting the nomination in an anti-Trump wave year is probably the best chance dems have of picking this up.

I think the most likely scenario is that we still fall short ans Paxton becomes Senator

In a massive upset, Morgan from Chicago has won the FIFA Peace Prize
December 5, 2025 at 7:52 PM
This is interesting because people were talking right after the election that FIFA and the Olympics should pull out of the US. Lol. They were never doing that because the logistics are too hard to shift that quickly, but they wouldn’t entertain the idea if they could do it anyway.
this shit is just beyond parody, man

I have always hated the concept of a “soulmate” so I loved in in The Good Place when they had Michael say

“If soulmates do exist, they are not found, they are made”

This is a much better idea of a soulmate than the other popular interpretation imo

It is kind if maddening that this does not seem to be a big issue to the city. No attempt to get CPD in line at all.
Chicagoans are paying about $40 apiece just for lawsuits tied to disgraced former cop Reynaldo Guevara Jr.

So far this year, the city is on the hook for some $285M in police misconduct settlements—roughly $100 per resident
really good comparison here. can someone calculate what Chicago residents are paying for CPD settlements?
