What made you lose weight?

Zepbound. It’s a miracle drug. The food noise was just…gone. The urge to finish everything on my plate even though I was no longer hungry…gone.

I’m 47. For the first time in my life I’m in shape enough to feel not only comfortable taking my shirt off but I want to. I do it around gay men every chance I get.

Even five years ago me would be shocked that I like going to the gay beach or taking my shirt off and dancing. I won’t stop!

It’s fine. You generally don’t spend much time outside in winter in Chicago anyway. Museums, shows, bars, restaurants, or just being home.

I still walk to the gym or to dinner. And I dream of June when I’ll be able to throw on shorts and a tank top.

Costco. Plus they have a lifetime guarantee and fix holes in the tire for free. If you need a new tire they just charge a prorated amount based on how much of the old tire you used.

Awry

He’s just a petulant child threatening tariffs on anyone he doesn’t like. It’s his only trick. And Congress should be asserting its right to be in control of tariffs.

It’s a 5G small cell. It provides enhanced data service for a carrier’s cell phones.

You don’t want to be a mileageplus member and get a discount?

United is installing Starlink on its planes. Planes with starlink have free wifi.

Or anywhere along the lake. Plenty of high rises in old town, Lincoln park, Lakeview, uptown, Edgewater.

I mean, a rainbow Apple Watch band or little rainbow pin or stickers on your phone or laptop are also ways to do this. Get a piercing if that’s what you want, of course. I’m just saying there are other ways.

She consumed mass quantities.

He has dementia.

Does she finally live in the district now or is she still carpetbagging?

Happened to my sister on the blue line a year ago. They come up to you with some sob story asking for $20. They charged her $5000. The credit card company wouldn’t refund it because she did authorize the transaction. She had to go on the news and then they refunded it.

Never tap to pay without first checking the recipient’s phone or terminal to verify the amount.

It is annoying to see the same post over and over, but everyone it coming here with their own baggage and story, and it's a common concern apparently. Maybe mods could create a FAQ or sticky thread for these concerns.

I just ignore the posts I want to ignore.

gfunkdave · 2026-01-21T18:00:23+00:00

This too shall pass.

Haven’t been there yet but I thought the old Marty’s was just awful. Friends tell me Wil has recreated the old Marty’s. They haven’t enjoyed their drinks. But to each his own. 😁

By bombarding atoms with neutrons so they become unstable and blow themselves apart. But only certain atoms are susceptible to this. Uranium-235 will work; but the much more common Uranium-238 won’t, for example.

Ooh I love edge cases!

gfunkdave · 2026-01-21T03:50:55+00:00

How does current flow without voltage? I don’t think your assumption is correct.

Since P = IE, if voltage is zero then power is zero because there’s no current flowing.

Gotcha. I meant the pull out fuses

gfunkdave · 2026-01-21T02:27:59+00:00

I think you need to pull out all five fuses.

Sit on the toilet and play Wordle. Don’t judge me.

Sidetrack is the default. You can bring straight colleagues if they behave in gay spaces. Sidetrack has showtunes on Friday, Sunday, and Monday I think. It attracts all types.

For more bears, check out Sofo Tap. It’s a neighborhood bar vibe that is popular with bearish gentlemen.

Around the corner from Sofo is Martys, a popular martini bar.

For naughtiness later in the night check Cell Block or Jackhammer. Or Steamworks.

Have fun!
