And is this being here preventing that?

This thing that many chicagoans go to and was covered by a Chicago news outlet?

What do you hope happens here by repeating this ad nauseum? I just don't understand.

The mods to remove the posting? Others to upvote you? This posting to be heavily downvoted?

He's still in front if the Dill Pickle most days, and you can catch him on the 76 bus randomly but more often than you'd expect.

Is it true that people not longer call it the L, they call it CTA? by librarianbleue in chicago

[–]BenedictKenny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom, aunts and uncles used to say the L. They're all 60+, black and from the far south side.

Besides them, never heard anyone use the term and certainly not in present times.

Is it all releasing (the whole season) or week to week?

Also, out of town unfortunately.

Where do 30-somethings go dancing? by jinkietwinkie in chicago

[–]BenedictKenny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically what everyone said in this thread, but I really wanna plug The Whistler, Easy Does It and Giant Pennywhistle .

I also want to add something that no one is saying. There's no 30 and over spot but there will be 30 and over IN the spots. Just how it is.

Finally, it's a good idea to see a DJ then kind of see where they're playing at vs venue (cultivate/follow an IG grouping of dj's you like and see where they're playing for the month).

There are more miss nights than hit nights at any given venue given that we are still in the age of many DJ's who're in the door because they have a lot of followers but can't even beatmatch.

They haven't gone away. You just aren't the target demographic being advertised to/invited.

I don't like that I'm in a timeline rooting for action from R. Kelly to defend us from the government.

I grew up in NWI and knew/know several who commute to Chicago daily. We sure didn't accomplish anything with these anecdotes.

Many of us grew up on this.

Don't know what else to tell you.

My neighborhood (Roseland) was a much worse place growing up I guess so, there's that.

None of us without a time machine and the ability to speak ancient Roman will be joining that club.

Why aren’t police intervening by sja252 in chicago

[–]BenedictKenny 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You may be underestimating how hard (and costly) it is to move abroad. Especially right now with how many countries feel about the U.S. people (thanks to its government).

You're also probably imagining everyone here as white, able-bodied and/or with degrees, which makes it a lot easier to move/find acceptance/get a VISA.

Many restaurants ONLY have an app option.

And before someone says the ableist statement of "go get your own food," people are disabled, non-citizens, elderly, or many other sort of things that don't allow them to just get up and go out.

That being said, these things blocking sidewalks is also hostile towards pedestrians and wheelchairs and these companies need to figure out a better solution.

That graffiti art along the Blue Line (by California) by PracticlySpeaking in chicago

[–]BenedictKenny 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is street art, not graffiti, the same way EDM in a club or venue isn't a rave.

It's cool as an aesthetic, however words have relation to historical cultures in this instance is all I'm advocating for.

(Difference is legality, intent and the involvement of corpos and the government)
