the tribune endorsing Obama as their first-ever democratic candidate pick because he was from Chicago.

the tribune editor who wished for a Katrina to hit Chicago so that we could rebuild better

just the tribune editorial board in general and for all time

I imagine their favorite part of Katrina is that it ended all public schools in New Orleans to this day

Almost literally what was in the editorial lol.

quote:

Residents overthrew a corrupt government. A new mayor slashed the city budget, forced unpaid furloughs, cut positions, detonated labor contracts. New Orleans' City Hall got leaner and more efficient. Dilapidated buildings were torn down. Public housing got rebuilt. Governments were consolidated.

An underperforming public school system saw a complete makeover. A new schools chief, Paul Vallas, designed a school system with the flexibility of an entrepreneur. No restrictive mandates from the city or the state. No demands from teacher unions to abide. Instead, he created the nation's first free-market education system.

one of the funniest parts of the mayoral election leadup and aftermath was people declaring that Brandon Johnson was unqualified to run a city and we should go with Paul loving Vallas, a man who has done nothing but fail and con money in every single public sector job he has ever held.

oh that reminds me, when the count started to clearly trend against Vallas on election night and multiple reporters were tweeting that the Vallas watch party had quietly asked the bagpipers they'd hired to go home since they wouldn't match the mood.

the space force adopting its own new fitness standards which are much more lax about things like weight gain than any other branch of service, in acknowledgement of the fact that it is mostly composed of aforementioned fat IT dorks

UPS thanked the Florida police who annihilated one of their drivers with automatic gunfire when he had been taken hostage by a petty thief

The police also used stuck motorists as human shields while spraying bullets everywhere with no regard for their backgrounds on a crowded highway

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?
