I have notes. Mostly about live pop culture moments and Chicago sports. Sometimes random.

When I make new friends I feel like I should disclose that I’m not the kind of person to post a collage and heartfelt story of our friendship on your birthday, but like, if you want to do that for me, I will allow it.

This Frenchman in the U.S for the World Cup describing his first-ever Buc-ee’s experience is the funniest thing I've ever seen 😭

It’s honestly insane that they will never need to craft a water bong out of a coconut milk carton to get by.
can't believe millennials had to smoke out of soda cans and apples then blow it all into a toilet paper roll filled with dryer sheets while gen z can just pull out a weed pen and hit it in the middle of target

It’s like sitting in a dumpster and someone’s pulling you around. But with computer screens. ^my uncle earnestly describing his experience with a Tesla in self driving mode.

Also, I am behind on 7th inning stretch ratings. I haven’t seen ‘em all, but the last 2… Coach Beard: 10/10 no notes Kerry Wood: 8/10

Wouldn’t it be incredible to meet someone who was like “who is Donald Trump?” Genuinely had never heard of him. These are my daydreams…

Cole Wright with the best 7th inning stretch of the season so far, imo. 8.5/10. Point deducted for chattiness on the lead in. Save it for the interview, pal. Half point deducted for not *feeling* too sober the whole time. #Cubs #RateTheStretch

Ooof. Was kinda thinking this would go better than it did. I mean the guy is THE VOICE of Wrigley. He’s next to the organ. It was a respectable effort. But corny af. And you can’t come out of the gate in earnest and be that tone deaf. 5/10. #RateTheStretch #Cubs

Harry Carrey 7th inning stretch is the gold standard. That’s the bar for which all stretch performances are judged against until the end of time. 10/10 no notes. #Cubs

7/10 stretch performance. Pacing great. Enthusiasm was lacking. But they’re old. So we’ll give it a pass. Good balance of being on and off key. Nostalgia was a bonus. Respectable start to the Wrigley 7th inning stretch season. #Cubs

Always have. Always will 🫠
Would you still tweet if you got zero likes on all your posts?

My favorite Super Bowl ad was the Law and Order SVU promo. A place to disappear and watch men be brought to justice for committing sex crimes? Might as well have been an ad for a vacation resort.

I just keep wishing Olivia Benson, Ice T and whatever flavor of the season AG would show up.

Meanwhile, in Chicago…
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The "FUCK ICE" message was not displayed on any Chicago building. The "BEAR DOWN" portion resembles a 2019 light display on the Blue Cross Blue Shield Tower without it. chicagotribune.com/2026/01/18/bea…
