Pretty sure I have to buy the “Handmade Willis Tower by kids” that’s going for $60 on FB Marketplace.
Screenshot of Facebook Marketplace listing for “Handmade Willis Tower by kids.” It’s $60. Looks like it’s made of cardboard and duct tape.

ONPHONE1.BMF
A sharply dressed businessman on the phone. With that plaintive face and gesturing hand, he looks demoralized, or embarrassed. Maybe he’s pleading for his job, his livelihood. Red’s seen men plead like that before. Now that’s what’s embarrassing. It disgusts Red. The submission is like an open invitation to kick the man, kick him to the ground.

The original internet that could find anything is in serious jeopardy. On the other hand, enough of it remains that it took my 5 seconds to learn that a joke I half remembered is from the 1993 film Surf Ninjas.

I was at the Inland Steel Building earlier today thought I'd grab some images of the seven-ton desk Frank Gehry designed for the lobby during that brief time he had an ownership take in the building.

An AI-generated image of a man playing keyboard. It took 45 tries for @DOGEBROMOMO to get it exactly right and he now considers himself a fully qualified Prompt Engineer. Man, nobody can do what he does with AI art.

STAPLER1.BMF
A rare red Swingline stapler. It formerly belonged to Major General Potter Ash, commander of the United States Army Military Intelligence Center at Fort Huachuca. One day it up and disappeared. Every subsequent stapler Ash’s aides requisitioned likewise disappeared within days. Where did they go? Where does anything go when it disappears? Into the Hollow.

Lots of good signs in Evanston this morning.
Hands holding a sign at a protest that says, “THE ONLY KING WE CROWN IS ELVIS” under a picture of the King himself.

Another flyer has appeared! Someone in Chicago is making protest flyers that mimic the design of handbills that contractors put on people’s garages. Many contractors are undocumented so they will see these. This showed up on my block today. I haven’t had time to see if it has been posted more widely
An 8 1/2 x 5 1/2“ flyer posted on the side of a garage in Chicago’s Avondale neighborhood. It calls for ICE to be abolished and is designed in the style of contractor flyers. These flyers are a common site in many Chicago neighborhoods and you can see from other flyers in these photos how similar this design looks.
