     @jeremiah @apropos I've visited Chicago a few times, in the 90s and 00s. I didn't like it; big cities are expensive, polluted, and dangerous.

     @apropos @noyoushutthefuckupdad having lived there, I understand and share your distaste for it, give or take KD Market, which I miss.

     @noyoushutthefuckupdad I was planning to visit the tower of sauron in Chicago. Looks groovy!

     @jeremiah @noyoushutthefuckupdad I like the map but I hate how prominent Chicago is.
     
     But I also hated how prominent how Chicago was in American politics. I even resented seeing "Americas/Chicago" when selecting a time zone. In that way this map is more accurate than the usual map that shows Chicago is just some larger text.

     @noyoushutthefuckupdad @apropos it was my experience that what you got depended on where you were. You could live in some places where it was safe to leave the car unlocked at night, and other places, it a maniac's collection of worst case scenarios. My cost of living went _down_ moving from a small midwestern town to Chicago, but polluted and variably dangerous were absolutely true.
     
     I liked it when I was in my early twenties, but you couldn't pay me to live there today. It's on the way between regular destinations, but I go around it -- haven't visited in ten years at least, and the last time, it was to go to IKEA, KD Market, and gtfo.
