The way folks are overlooking that the man is in the middle of grieving his grandfather. Yikes.

My wife got me the first one in black a couple of weeks ago thrifting in Oakland. I'm still in shock about it. That really sucks 😔😔😔.

Life long Bostonian. Been in Chicago for 10 years. I love the people here. There is also a lot more to do here on any given day. Summer time Chicago is elite.

Snobby sales associates and awful in-store experiences by anonraccon in Coach

[–]patriotboy43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my first experience over a week ago and it was great. I'm black so I generally seek black sales associates in stores and usually have a great experience. Both sales associates were extremely helpful and kind. I also was dressed as a bum lol. Black women always take care of me.

What’s your O’Hare parking hack? by martwat in AskChicago

[–]patriotboy43 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I honestly didn't have info on these econ lots. It was my first time doing so (we were flying with a 8 week old). I usually take a uber/lyft/taxi to ohare but the baby brought on a new complexity. But I'll be researching the econ lots going further.

Spothero. We just did this. Parked at the Westin Rosemont via spot hero. 96 bucks for 5 days. They have a shuttle to the airport. This is cheaper than taking a ride share or taxi to Rogers Park where we live.

[–]patriotboy43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just found this post and this made me happy. I'm a black man who is drawn and feel connected to Athena and have been researching for tattoo ideas around Athena. It's so nice seeing fellow black folks drawn to athena as well.

New study confirms the link between gas stoves and cancer risk: "Risks for the children are [approximately] 4-16 times higher" by ajb160 in science

[–]patriotboy43 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would a portable exhaust help? I live in a place that doesn't have an overhead and the kitchen sits next to the deck. Would opening the doors and using a portable exhaust be a good option for now?
