Coverage of dishonest Chicago cops staying on the job without consequences has drawn a lot of attention following a recent OIG report. This yarn by @ProPublica and @chicagotribune illustrates the city’s troubled history of accountability through one officer, Jeffrey Kriv, currently on trial for perjury and forgery. #Chicago #police https://www.propublica.org/article/how-chicago-cop-got-out-of-44-traffic-tickets

This crazy story of the guy with the “flamethrower” on the roof comes to a predictable end.

Where are my OTD #ActuallyAutistic folks?

Did being autistic in the frum world contribute to your exit from it?

Something you don’t see on a Chicago sidewalk very often. Not sure why these bees have picked this tree or this branch.

Less than two weeks to my trip to #Chicago! Need to get crackin' on figuring out my anchor activities beyond the CAC Boat Tour.

Any recommendations for fun bookstores, museums, neighborhood walks, or must-see historical places?

I have not lived in (or visited) #Chicago since 2018...

The city still does not have this #Ventra thing figured out?

I cannot even login into the site.

If you're in #Chicago, see "Pop-Up Books" at the #NewberryLibrary! aka Engineered Paper, many are historical scientific tools such as astronomical calculators, globes, etc. Free entry!

Here’s something to chew on. Food scraps are being used to generate renewable energy. How these innovative “stomachs” are powering parts of cities from Australia to Indiana.

Today is the 19th anniversary of my start date at the Palmer House Hilton in #Chicago, Illinois, USA. If you were a guest at the Palmer House between June of 2004 and August 2006, it's entirely possible that I checked you in for your stay.

If that's the case, hello again! I apologize if your room was impossibly small. I promise it wasn't personal. The hotel is old.
