I’m happy to see this go through.

It’s the second one. In the first case, you unnecessarily kill an animal. A fair question would be if it was a natural death of the animal, like you stumbled upon a fresh carcass, is eating that still ethically or morally gray?

But that’s not the point, veganism makes sense in first world countries with factory farming. It’s very clear that mass produced animal products are no go’s.

I agree. Also budget is important and how much you want to travel around chicago when you’re here. I knew someone who lived in Rosemont and was happy with it, except for the commute since the trains went into the town instead of straight east.

RPM is I think one of their most expensive projects yet. I’m happy to see the redline finally expanding south.

I do think the next goal should be a line out west that runs north to south (think kedzie) but that’s certainly a ways out.

I mean it’s a brand new event, it was somewhat controversial. I want to hear updates about it and talk about it. I know there’s plenty going on in the city but this is new and a lot of people aren’t sure how it’ll play out, so I’m not surprised there’s many posts on it.

I think the event is cool fwiw and am going to make a post asking for others perspectives later.

I’m not sure where in South Loop you are or what’s “walking distance.” I’d say Asian Outpost is my favorite spot. Yolk for breakfast, and I really like Niu B but was only there once or twice. Probably not walkable but La Cantina has good food as well.

I think the weekly discussion / general questions / themed questions (eg a neighborhood or food or things to do) pinned thread was good.

I mainly used r/chicago to read discussion on news articles, and hear peoples thoughts on, eg events around the city or whatever the mayor did. All news or events is fine for me. could be a new restaurant or neighborhood block party, etc.
