Gross and bizarre

Everything’s fine, but it might be a night to just go to bed at 6:30.

I like this feature, however.

Utility box painted with juicy fruits and a hopeful message.

The fire is an odd feature to have going this morning.

Thank you—and you know I really mean it.

Ha. I had to schedule myself a two-minute cry because that is all the time I have for it today.

The only thing that’s working for me right now is @hystericalblkns.bsky.social ‘s practice of #BeautyEveryDay. It is a practice, though, and sometimes you have to dig deep.

Let it never again be said that a woman with no real reporting experience who fell for a Twitter account called "Official Antifa" cannot be the head of a huge news organization

Moon’s coming up, sun going down

Two standing rocks and a chainlink fence with the sun over the city beyond.

My aunt was killed by a drunk driver on Halloween. Her kids are well grown up now, but they never could enjoy that holiday.

Preorder Read This When Things Fall Apart @mskellymhayes.bsky.social · 3d

I have a full day today, but I woke up early to put this edition of my newsletter together because I need you all to have this rundown of what we've been up against this week in Chicago as the federal assault on our city continues.

Must-Reads and the War on Chicago
