That being said, it was great to be among folks from all over the city (plus countless tourists) standing shoulder to shoulder in positivity, especially after what was a challenging year for many.

Nailed it! People were hyped, but it sucked not having the rest of the Chicago acts showcased, and having Chance mainly intro acts elsewhere — and then we couldn’t even see the broadcast! Let’s hope next year there are even more nat’l acts on the bill so Chicago gets more air time.

People magazine has already stated in their latest update that their son killed them. Say what you will about People, they rarely if ever seem to publish wrong info. They fact-check thoroughly.

I was driving around yesterday & was listening to the radio (I know — I’m old). “Golden” came on multiple times across different stations (a couple of top 40 stations and one adult contemporary). It is quite the 👂🐛!

Dealing with frozen shoulder now for almost 9 months. “Frozen” doesn’t begin to cover the intense pain or the inability to do normal tasks like grab a plate from a shelf.

Also, if you’re a cinephile you may want to check out the Music Box Theater, which shows lots of indie movies & has singalongs sometimes.

So you’re an app hater too? 😉
Several years ago I read articles about the security vulnerabilities of many apps (esp those developed by small orgs) and now it takes a lot for me to download an app.

Understood! And the “By the people, for the people” message has so many possibilities. But my point was just that even changing one word in the MAGA phrase (to “work”) would be better than the proposed D slogan.

I do not love the idea of building on or referring to the current R slogan, but even “Make America Work Again” would be better IMHO! It seems like a lot is broken in this country and that is a sentiment that likely crosses political divides.

There is that too. But over the past year or so, the writing/content jobs that come across my LI feed & involve feeding the AI machine have increased by a lot. And folks who write are being bombarded w/the message that we *must* figure out how to harness AI for our work or get left behind.
