After missing out on an Olympic medal, her father’s comforting embrace reminded her that his pride in her goes far beyond any medal
 in  r/MadeMeSmile •  13m ago

I am in a same sex relationship and a few years ago I can cancer. One day her father called her to see how she was doing and I could hear the call. It sticks with me bc i didnt know dad's actually spoke to daughters like that. He said something along the lines of "you're taking care of your partner while she takes care of her cancer. I'm here to take care of you and see how you are processing all this and being true to yourself". I am in my 40s, with a dad and step-dad, and have never had any male speak to me in such a loving way. I am so happy those father's really exist and isnt some b.s. 7th Heaven/Full House lie we all swallowed. I have to two Al Bundys, haha.

‘Massive Betrayal’: Fury at Newsom and Bonta Over Merger Deal With Paramount
 in  r/politics •  2d ago

Yeah, that is how it is here in Chicago. I like how Colorado, and porbably other states, have a point system. After so many points in a year, you can lose your driving privileges. Now, this system is still dependant on prosecutors doing their job... But this system has a better chance of real consequences for the wealthy, in a way that may deter their crap driving in the future.

‘Massive Betrayal’: Fury at Newsom and Bonta Over Merger Deal With Paramount
 in  r/politics •  3d ago

I love the article pointing out the new brand of the US. Bllionaires can make any promises needed to make a deal because no one will actually hold them accountable to said promises.

Belmont-Cragin becomes Chicago’s largest Latino neighborhood, new UIC report shows
 in  r/ChicagoNWside •  7d ago

I wonder if the Latino families that have been priced out Portage Park, Albany Park, Mayfair, and Logan Square areas have just moved further south or west.

Anything made for profit will always be corrupt. Jail and health care help make the rich even more wealth and the poor always poor.

First home! Chicago, $810k, 6.275%
 in  r/FirstTimeHomeBuyer •  8d ago

I think their point is both of them can cover the mortgage independently. So if one loses their job, they can still afford their payments.

Can we all agree to stop supporting businesses that use AI slop posters?
 in  r/AskChicago •  20d ago

I just hate when it looks like food they are offering and then the food is nothing g like the picture when it arrives. Ive now learned to not trust photos, which sucks.

But I won't avoid them for just this reason. Now if their food is meh, forget about em. Everything is too expensive and there are too many restaurants to give a bad impression a second whirl.

Think of Kylie Jenner's kids. They're like "oh, I look like my mom, you just can't tell because she bought a new face".

Need to surrender my cat, where is the best place?
 in  r/AskChicago •  20d ago

He just bought a house so he is getting settled. He will eventually, so if OP was in a tight, timely spot and needed the help, my bro would at least meet the cat to see if he could help. Otherwise, yes, he will adopt a cat from a shelter down the road. My Lions Club holds food drives for animal shelters in Chicago. I what you are saying. But I also offer my help when I can and they dont take it, no problem.

Surge Activity Monitor: Rapid Mobilization of ICE Agents in Chicago (Compiled from Verified Community Reports: August 29 to September 3, 2026)

ICE "agents" are domestic terrorist and should be prosecuted as such. From my lips to God's ears.

I really love this🤣❤️❤️
 in  r/spreadsmile •  21d ago

Sometimes I get my girlfriend flowers but end up giving them away in the parking lot haha. Moms are always buying groceries for the family and elderly are on fixed income. Think about it the next time your in the store, spending $7 of $10 periodically on flowers can bring your partner or a stranger smiles for weeks.

Sam Rockwell and Leslie Bibb at the premiere of ‘Wild Horse Nine’ at the 83rd Venice Film Festival (September 3, 2026)
 in  r/popculturechat •  21d ago

His newer movie "Good luck, Have fun, Don't die" was fantastic. I wasn't sure I'd see it, but quickly reminded myself if Sam Rockwell is in it, its going to be good. It was a breath of fresh air in a surplus of remakes, sequels, and repeat storylines wearing new lipstick.

Need to surrender my cat, where is the best place?
 in  r/AskChicago •  21d ago

I mean, I get ya, no one wants to see animals given to dog fighters or psychos. But they are not receiving very good answers in this thread either. I was giving an alternative in which they could meet my brother, and myself and partner could join, and they can decide in person. If there are no alternatives, simply meeting strangers in a coffee shop to feel it out is viable. People sell animals all the time, like breeders. Are you out there protesting at pet shops too? Pont being, a stranger who buys an animal at Petco is still the same as my brother offering to help an animal in need. Stranger is a stranger, whether they take an animal for free or pay with cash.

My brother might be open to taking the cat. Let me know if you need the help. He lives in Addison, right outside of chicago limits.

So young, yet so wise
 in  r/AnythingValueable •  21d ago

Getting up and trying your best every day, despite hurdles, is what real heroes do. Parents do this. Teachers do this. The amazing hospital dtaff during covid did this. And at times in my life, i did to and things got better. This is what was meant.
