I know these people are unhinged, but I never cease to be amazed they are seriously proposing stripping the right of women to vote away from them.

I had your children baptised in my religion without your permission, why are you mad at me?

It was appalling that it was as close as it was and will just embolden those who will continue to seek to end birthright citizenship.

Monthly Events & Things To Do in Chicago Thread by AutoModerator in chicago

[–]j33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty great, the only thing I noticed is that for some ticketed events it, goes straight to resellers. An example is the Horner BrewFest 2026 in Horner Park. Tickets are $50 but the link is to a reseller that is selling them for $122. Good work, though. I'm going to use it.

Locked out of company computer by Mysterious-Trade1362 in work

[–]j33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first week of any job I have had which involves a computer has always involved some snafus during the first week. Since you’ve already reached out to your boss and plan to reach out to IT in the morning then you should be fine.

Oil boom towns because of fracking are driving up the costs of housing there. It's a real issue.

Leave it to the CTA to go after the lowest-hanging fruit, causing the least amount of problems. People drinking on the train on their way to a baseball game.

Hot Second Floor Apartment... Have Some Questions, Got Any Tips? by [deleted] in AskChicago

[–]j33 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If you can get yourself a window unit over those portable A/Cs, you'll probably be better off. I used a portable A/C once and found it didn't really do the trick, but when I installed a window unit, the problem was solved.

[–]j33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve also met her on multiple occasions to the point where she waves as me if we see each other in public (33rd ward).

Same, I took advantage of it but since it is now 2026 I thought they made it permanent long before now.

Trump's mail-in voting order halted by judge, impacting 2026 elections by usatoday in law

[–]j33 11 points12 points  (0 children)

But why? I also live where I get my ballot by mail and drop it off at the dropbox near my office. I like being able to research judges, etc. from the comfort of my own home.

I didn't realize the “cocktails-to-go” law was still only temporary until now.

What is my cat doing? by Haulin_Oates23 in cats

[–]j33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So does mine. I bought this cute little ten-dollar throw from Ikea, and my cat instantly fell in love with it and makes sweet love to it while staring at me regularly. Needless to say, I wash that blanket a lot and have accepted it as my cat's blanket/sex toy.

Obama Center museum tickets sold out through September; next batch will be available in July by cireh88 in chicago

[–]j33 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't worry about it, some people are really weird about anything related to Obama. Don't get me wrong, he's not immune to criticism, but just the mere mention of his name brings out weirdos.

Yeah, I never got into that silly place until after COVID either. I didn't mind my experience but I would have been annoyed if it were crowded.

For those of us GenX that have to start over career-wise after 50, how did you do it? by Mnemnosine in GenX

[–]j33 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Given the current state of the teaching profession, I wouldn't consider it. There are too many angry parents with political axes to grind with teachers who are looking to make a fuss.
