Mayor Lori Lightfoot says she’ll allow Chicago restaurants to serve more people starting Thursday Can't get the teachers vaccinated before forcing them back into schools with more virulent COVID strains, but definitely has room for encouraging super-spreading in restaurants.
I'd like to think the terrible weather is keeping people from doing super spreading activities but that's probably wishful thinking.
Two of my old friends from Ohio are moving up here and they’d been banking on tomorrow, and I’m feverishly trying to tell them to fuckin wait lol
Reminds me a lot of February 2015. Winter started out mild and then just took a dump right around the Super Bowl with the blizzard.
I almost got snowed into the garden apartment that i was living in at the time. Drifts had piled up outside the door so had to throw the shovel out and shimmy my way between the door and wall to dig out lol.
We had just bought our house then and thankfully weren't living their yet. We were still living in a condo that had a service for snow removal. Spent an hour outside this morning shoveling and another hour in the alley a block over helping a friend/neighbor who got stuck when they were on their way out to pick up their paczki from Bridgeport Bakery.
Personally, I would be honored to not make rent if it means a cop gets a new bulletproof vest to wear while they’re out body slamming 13 year olds.
Chicago police showed ‘confusion and lack of coordination’ that endangered protesters, officers last May, city watchdog concludes in scathing report Officers were often unclear on who was in charge or what they were supposed to do. Scattered direction led to “strategic and tactical incoherence,” according to the report, where early in the protests police generally did not make arrests when people damaged property but the next day were told to crack down on vandals. Echoing the complaints of protesters that police reacted brutally with batons and pepper spray, Ferguson pointed to “out-of-policy, dangerous and disrespectful actions by CPD members.” The full extent of those excesses may never be clear, however, becausemany officers failed to wear or switch on body cameras, Ferguson wrote. He noted also that some officers covered their names and star numbers.
This thread randomly popped up in my notifications again. We don't live in Chicago but we recently booked a long weekend up there for March. Knowing full well we aren't going to do anything but hang out in the hotel room and door dash some good food. ETA: I've been vaccinated fully and feel comfortable traveling 90 miles away from home. My husband has not yet, but his biggest concern has been making sure I was before we ventured out. We've stayed home all year. Also, will take any and all good delivery options for dinner!
What the fuck is this? Ald. Brendan Reilly Says He Was Attacked By 2 Men Outside Boss Bar In River North Uhhhh ok
CWB leans a little too right for me at times, but they're on top of things for the most part. This all sounds really odd and yet totally believable.
I'll follow up to say that I'm willing to believe this was some random fuckery. I've lived in River North for about a year now and it's gotten sketchy since the pandemic started. Or maybe I'm paying more attention now. But also, the Jussie story has my antenna up for bullshit too, so I don't know.
Be careful walking around outside. My walk to the Western brownline was mostly black ice this morning.
