As soon as the chili ice cube started melting some, even better.

With my gin and vermouth I'd probably up the gin a bit and lower the vermouth a bit because it started a little too sweet.

Part of the gap GIG fills is there's close to no comprehensive journalism (opinion or straight reporting) on our elections. I've often been frustrated in the past with WBEZ politics reporting not saying anything about some race, or some candidates in races with no explanation why it's not newsworthy

yeah that seems to be their argument. tbf i have come across a few accounts like that in the wild, but i'm not convinced it's a problem. and at the end of the day, responding to foia requests is a "fundamental obligation" of state agencies.

I asked him why we should sent him to a useless federal Congress when he's been so useful hear in IL and he said that they might not always be useless and then is when you want someone like him ready with a cool ass bill to pass. (Paraphrased)

The Only race they seemed to have nothing to say on! There were more write-ups on small state house races!

I have noticed it feeling more gossipy over time.

Also it seemed like they struggled to justify it

We still had a lovely time but weren't prepared for how car centric the city was going to be.
