Have asked this before and always like the responses. What are your biggest “I saw that in the first run cinema” flexes? Couple of mine:

Literally just stumbling into the wall. I hit it with my arm up and it just ever so slightly dislocated something that bothered me for six months(?) before it accidentally got put back in place when I was stretching on the couch one night 😂

Literally the fact that multiple people have seemingly spent money on commercials about the Chicago city budget - not even an election, just passing the budget - is fucking insane to me

So much grief, trauma, and burnout that will be avoided by allowing patients and families to choose this path

Columbia and Northwestern are the academic homes to the most prestigious journalism schools in the country and they are the two universities that caved to the Trump administration’s extortion demands that are directly connected to the First Amendment. Just gonna sit with that for a while.

Was just at a neighborhood school at dismissal. Hundreds of people with whistles surrounding the school and stationed down every block making sure ICE doesn’t snatch anyone. The same is happening at all the schools around here. I love my neighborhood and I love Chicago.
