  1. Had a really good day today 🌤️ Been leaning into low-device / no-device 📵 weekends lately to help with burnout and honestly enjoying it more than I expected.

    Love the neighborhood feeling on my side of the city when the weather warms up: photographers out everywhere 📷, cyclists rolling in groups 🚴, sketch meetups ✏️, people gathering in the parks.

    Nice reminder to slow down and actually notice things again!

  2. Moved from the Gulf Coast 🌊 to Chicago 🌇 to get away from hurricanes 🌀 and somehow ended up speedrunning seemingly every weather record they’ve got in 1 year's time 📆 :

    First dust storm since the dust bowl (?!), hottest summer in forever, coldest/snowiest winter in forever, and now the rainiest spring! 🌷

    Typing this during a flood/tornado 🌪️ warning while another line of storms rolls in.

    Beginning to suspect I brought this with me. 🤔 😆

  7. At the Garfield Park Conservatory in Chicago.

    Walked into a full on tropical climate at the conservatory 🌿☀️ Warm, humid air, sunlight through that massive glass ceiling, and hanging plant baskets overhead.

    This is just the first four main halls!

  9. "Rather be dead than a fascist" - Unknown, painted on the side of a building somewhere between Roosevelt & Cermak.

    Love this city!

  10. Hey folks! 🐘 🐧 👋

    Thought I'd drop by since Bluesky :bluesky: is overrun with Blue MAGA right now!

    I'm starting a #Chicago 🌆 walking tour YouTube Channel 📹 soon! Idea at first is to loop (pun intended) my footage to create city + walking #asmr

    In the meantime, enjoy one of the best views of the city from the 18th street pink line station 🚅 🚆

  12. #3goodthings #ThreeGoodThings

    Thought I'd do a mid week #threegoodthingstoday. 📆 amidst the build out of our compute cluster 💻. Without further ado:

    1. Did some community organizing related to CTA 🚆 🚂 funding and immigration rights 📄 with #DSA #CDSA despite having no ⌚ time these last few weeks. It wasn't much but I feel like showing up, even in small ways, is still important.

    2. I just love 💕 my train 🚂 time. Every morning 🌄 and afternoon ☀️ I get a great walk in 👟 and a space of time to nap, read and take in a great view 🏙️ with a variety of people in the city.

    3. The compute cluster 💻 build is moving forward. I'm hesitant to say anything but I think I can see the next phase in sight 🤞🏼 🤞🏼 🤞🏼

    Happy hump day ! 👋🏼

  13. Hey all 👋🏼 🤗 I've been absolutely swamped at work (an entire month on site, everyday!) but wanted to mention real quick that the #Chicago transit 🚆 🚂 system is facing a massive budget shortfall for 2026!

    There is currently NO funding set aside in the '26 #illinois budget to address the crisis facing #Chicgoans who rely on #CTA #metra and #BNSF for work or ridership or both.

    If you rely on these services or just like #walkablecities, #DSA #CDSA has prepared a short letter that you can submit to Gov. #pritzker in just a few clicks ! 🖱️

  14. If I post one more Chicago collage, you are legally allowed to make me start an Instagram. In the meantime, here's more from my adventure around the city

  15. Hello Chicagoans! I'm new to the city and looking to help with mutual and community aid, food pantries and really anywhere I can lend my ability to research/compile information in digestible forms.

    Could anyone help out with links to get started? I'm a bit overwhelmed at where to start.

  16. #3GoodThingsToday #3goodthings #ThreeGoodThings

    I like to post a few #reasonstobecheerful to spread a bit of positivity - maybe give someone a smile or remind them of a good thing in their week 😜. Without further ado...

    1. June 1 ☀️ came and went (official start of the Atlantic basin hurricane 🌀 season) and for the first time in my life aside from a few years in university 🏫, I'm not living on the Gulf of Mexico. After evacuating 🧳for Hurricane Helene last year, I sat in a hotel room in Pittsburgh, watching the storm tear up the coast ⛱️ and I made myself a promise: I was going to move and never experience this again. Within 4 months I had an out of state job offer. I did it. I left. I'm still very proud 🦚 of that.

    2. My morning 🌅 train ride 🚆 was something out of a painting 🎨🖌️. The sun 🌞 was beaming and the city was awash in soft light. It was the kind of view that made me stop scrolling 📲 and just look out the window.

    3. Went to a meeting 🤝 in support of HB3853 - The Protective Medical Equipment Freedom Act 😷. This bill 🧾will enshrine the right to wear medical masks and other protective medical equipment for Illinoisans. #Illinois #illinoispolitics #chicagoland

  17. #threethingstoday #threethings #3GoodThingsToday

    A few quick #reasonstobecheerful in these bat shit times:

    1. Zohran Mamdani won the Democratic primary in NYC 🏙️ by actual speaking 🗣️ to peoples material needs (go figure!). I'm very much enjoying this W! ✨

    2. I am re learning 📝 Spanish. I still want to do a grad degree and/or PhD abroad ✈️ and I'm really interested in Mexico and Uruguay at the moment !

    3. Our SLURM cloud ☁️ computing cluster is operational! I was able to submit my first batch job and an interactive R job. Now soon enough I will need to replicate this work on prem 👩🏼‍💻

    Well that's it for me for now - Hasta Luego mis amigos!

  18. 3 good things because in the chaos of societal collapse in the US, I need to hold onto these moments:

    1. I was introduced as a subject matter expert in the realm of HPC/SLURM in a meeting. I never thought I'd be an expert on...anything, ever

    2. I took my first real (non touristy) trip on the L and other city transit today to get a new monitor 🚆 and take an adventure capturing street art

    3. Got in touch with my DSA chapter and a local food pantry
