Alive in Chicago (municipal boundary)

Профиль Vively

I love good books and bad movies. Trying to raise healthy and kind humans on the South side. Overrun by pets and projects. (she /her) Free Palestine.

Tom Holland's encounter with real cinema pairs great with Daniel Radcliffe's "director having a Marvel CGI breakdown" on the Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins. "It's not your fault, robot that will be voiced by Keira Knightley"

“It was just a new thing for me to be on the set with the other actors and not have to talk to tennis balls on sticks in a green screen” “Tom, I’m going to cut you off there, we don’t want you talking like that”

It's cool my kids finally want to play Anti Monopoly but I'm realizing the game instructions include a shortened TWO HOUR VERSION kill me now. God I hate a game with flow chart instructions

Just finished The Night Watchman, historical fiction by Louise Erdrich. It was funny and wrenching, full of real complicated humans with full personalities and backgrounds. Gets into the history of the BIA trying to terminate federal tribes. Strongly recommended.

Alive in Chicago (municipal boundary)

Allow me to recommend The Birchbark House series for realistic historical coming of age from a young Ojibwe girl's perspective. Read them with my kids after my mom started them on Little House. It puts the settlers in a very different light. www.nationalbook.org/books/the-bi...

This could fix me

Redwall Feasts Bot

A smidgen of summercream pudding, a pawful of cherries, a swig of comfrey tea, a beaker full of sparkling cider, some of the cucumber sandwiches, lots of cheese and celery dip, and an extra-large helping of cheese and celery flan with sage and parsley.

IL birth certificate refugees should get a grown up baby box with a couple Chicago style dogs, a picture of Tom Skilling, and a winter hat

Beautiful Women Updates

Illinois should legitimately issue birth certificates for trans people born in states that will not do so "sorry about your old state congratulations you were born in Illinois now"

Watched Dunkirk to see what Nolan did for his last time boat story and learned my American misunderstanding of the word Mole led me to think this would be much more of a spy/decoy story than it was

Nothing like Chicago summer. Took the kids to Ben Folds and the orchestra at Millennium Park. It was wonderful and free and Ben talked about the importance of the arts and high school band. He also told everyone that taking a date to the symphony will get you laid.

We're geofencing scooters and bikes off any use of this road while refusing speed governors for the cars that are killing people. I hate this so much.

Block Club Chicago

E-scooters will no longer be able to be used on a busy stretch of Sheridan Road in Edgewater due to safety concerns, the city said. Edgewater's alderwoman is working to get e-bikes restricted in the area, too. blockclubchi.co/3RspHgx

There are no good kings only beautiful palaces. There are no humane cages only savvy copaganda.

new: officials are building a $7 million “trauma-informed” visitation center at the cook county jail, part of at least $400 million in projects planned at the jail over the next decade. it’s supposed to make for a more “humane” experience—but it’ll do little to address the dismal conditions at ccj.

Just got out of the Wes Anderson Odyssey. Angelica Huston smokes so many cigarettes waiting for him. The gods as quirky siblings was an unexpected delight. pastel hues were anachronistic. I dug the precocious waif making the horse out of (Huston's) washed up cartons. provocative.

Mitchell Epner

Just got out of Quentin Tarrantino’s adaptation of the Odyssey. Lots of lingering shots of sandals. Samuel L. Jackson as Zeus was an interesting choice. He also jammed Oedipus into the story, mostly so the gods could berate him with a pungent 12-letter epithet.

About to fetch the youngest kid from camp, cancelled early due to power outages in Indiana...

I think it's neat that people still want to argue over the best way to tell stories, and about what the stories mean, and that even a story that pisses people off can make them think!

Forgot how bad my dental phobia is until the dentist looked shocked when I compare a root canal unfavorably to a c-section

I've been spamming my friends like the DNC with this critical information. YOU ONLY HAVE A FEW DAYS TO VIEW THIS MUSICAL FILM EVENT. WILL YOU COMMIT TO BUYING TICKETS TO HADESTOWN?

Allison Mulder

Saw the Hadestown pro shot yesterday and LOOOOVED it. So well done. Everyone did a Great Job. And I highly recommend the experience of hearing multiple people break into sobs all around the theater.
