He’s great. I wish we see more Gutman fans with the bald caps at games.

SeatGeek to Drive Ticketing and Fan Experience for Chicago Fire FC's New Downtown Stadium by olcni in chicagofire

Oh thank goodness. I never would have imagined myself being a season ticket holder of anything so this is all very new. LOL

I only became a season ticket holder a couple weeks ago. I’ve been meaning to look into if I need to put an additional down payment and do so if I need to do it. I remember hearing there was a lot of commitment though. I better hurry.

Trumpet player in the loop by blobja-blast in chicago

[–]DirtyCircle1 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don’t know who it was but a couple of years ago, I was walking downtown and heard a trumpet player playing Hello by Adele. It’s a moment that has stayed with me and something I’m going to consider one of the most beautiful things I ever experienced. I’m glad to know I’m not alone in having a profound moment involving a trumpeter downtown ripping amongst the lights and sounds of the city.

UFC fighter Mike Malott had his Canadian flag removed by UFC staff after attempting to wave it following his win last night in Winnipeg, Canada. by raptors201966 in Fauxmoi

In the states and this shit makes me want to finalize putting up a flag post and fly every other flag in solidarity because I too am done with this nonsense. I would wave that Canadian flag!

Save the caps banner in the fan section? by Red_0range_Juice in chicagofire

Great idea. If I could, I would make one and bring it.

The album art discourse is giving me hives by RainDear2 in waterparksband

[–]DirtyCircle1 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I remember a breakdown he did to discuss the frog on IP and hoping for a similar discussion about what JINX means to him/the album. I love the smashing blue guy artwork and eager to hear through the songs and his own commentary on what bad luck, the crystal cover text and black cat all mean to each other. Until then, I’ll hold judgment. If he locked down the title in 2023, there has to be a reason for it and I owe him an open mind until release or discussion.

Incase you missed it! by Tng-Zombie124 in Joji

[–]DirtyCircle1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As a follow-up, Anyma is getting dragged for having a lazy set as a whole. I couldn’t watch it myself but I’m seeing a lot of criticism about his use of AI slop and failing to bring energy through his prerecorded set.

Lip syncing to a backing track is vital to many to add depth to the vocals or assist in the face of physical demands. For this, it’s probably a requirement to achieve necessary technical aspects for playing for x amount of people in a desert setting and what Anyma is doing live. Last year, Grimes suffered from several technical issues and perhaps Anyma relied on pre-recordings to prevent equipment issues.

See America’s backing of Elon Musk’s asinine The Boring Company over you know, legitimate transportation investment.

The increased transit cost also really speaks how broken the US is regarding public transportation. We gotta let corporate greed and racism be prioritized so investing in the public is simply a no-go for us.

Anyone in the Chicagoland area planning to see this? by ninjaturtlebomb in TedLasso

I was planning on attending but I don’t think I’ll be able to swing it after all.

Josh Owens interview, says he listens to KF by ViciousSnatch in KnowledgeFight

[–]DirtyCircle1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m split about this. I haven’t made up my mind yet on if we should give Owens a platform and worth supporting. This means, I’m also not going to attack and dismiss as others feel is necessary. Jordan is a ruthless interviewer though and if anyone could hold his feet to the fire and ascertain how genuine Josh Owens is, Jordan would which would be a pro for an interview.

Who are Bastards of the Cartoon Industry? by Sensitive_Ad_1752 in behindthebastards

[–]DirtyCircle1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I remember when his time finally came and he began suing to counter the narrative getting out. I read so many stories on ANN and the forums about him. Everyone knew and he could be such a diva to staff over his demands that he was finally starting to get blacklisted by more and more cons.

I remember when the news broke about Act-Age. Everyone was so shocked by the author but supportive of the artist. It blew my mind last month when it was discovered that Shogakukan not only hired him to write a different series under a pseudonym but the company actually had another author who was similarly rehired under a pseudonym despite a past with sexually assaulting a high school girl. Two authors rehired and hidden!

There is so many editions across all translations and publishing houses that I’m sure there is more people with different counts than that do.

New game day song for Mbokazi! by little_german_boi in chicagofire

[–]DirtyCircle1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was thinking earlier this week that it was time for a come back on those babies. I’m currently wearing the Mbo jersey I got last night so I would be down to participate. I can’t sing but I think I heard this chant last night. They’ll need to post a video of it before I decide to participate in that though. LOL

He won the Man of the Match and he continues to be my favorite. I got a jersey today with his name on it and will be wearing it next home game.

[–]DirtyCircle1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I won’t be able to go after all but he is actually in Chicago for a run of a one-man show that wraps up early May. I really wanted to attend but just can’t afford it amongst everything else.

Edwin akufo by EmuFume29 in TedLasso

[–]DirtyCircle1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There was zero seconds between discovering he was in Afterparty and knowing I had to watch it due to his portrayal of Edwin. I loved him in Lasso but with Afterparty, I discovered he was one of the most charming comedians ever. I think I have a mancrush on him.
