Traffic deaths in Illinois By the numbers: Between January and June, 453 people were killed in crashes across Illinois, according to a new report from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

Nearby: Chicago, ILDiana Slickman has been one of the undersung great actors in Chicago theater for decades. Mostly known for her work with the Neo-Futurists (she was an ensemble member there for most of the 90s) and Theater Oobleck (her performances in Mickle Maher’s There Is a Happiness That Morning Is and Song About Himself are particular standouts), as well as her monologues with the solo collective BoyGirlBoyGirl, Slickman’s presence in a show elevates everyone around her. She is pinpoint-precise in her choices but never flashy, fully present but never pleading for our attention. She simply inhabits even the most difficult roles with a compelling blend of vulnerability and stalwart self-awareness.Those qualities are all on display in Slickman’s not-to-be-missed performance in Samuel Beckett’s 1961 play, Happy Days, now playing at the Neo-Futurist Theater in an AutoBody production directed by former Neo-Futurist Trent Lunsford.

Notably, one name wasn’t included in the letter: Ald. Ronnie Mosley (21st Ward). The TRiiBE reached out to Mosley for comment, but he declined. The mayor needs at least 26 votes to pass his budget plan before the end-of-the-year deadline. Just last week, Chicagoans overwhelmingly voted in favor of taxing millionaires during the 2026 Midterms. Multiple non-binding referendums appeared on the Nov. 3 ballot: 81% voted in favor of a 3-percent millionaires surcharge Precincts in four wards (5th, 8th, 21st and 24th) were asked if they support a corporate head tax on businesses with 500 or more employees, and each voted between 86% and 91% in favor of it.

In the weeks preceding the 2026 midterms, even before results trickled in for Chicago’s first-ever fully elected school board race, it was clear that our democracy had been sold to the highest bidder. Jessica Biggs, our city’s next school board president, ended her campaign with 297,179 votes, compared to 188,345 and 109,421 for her opponents Dominguez and Henderson, respectively, according to Chicago Board of Elections’ Nov. 3 summary report. Her candidacy was backed by millions in spending and increasingly by one wealthy donor: Michael Sacks. Sacks, the CEO of GCM Grosvenor whose estimated net worth is about $2 billion, spent nearly $6.5 million to influence the school board race through the Common Ground Collective Super PAC, and more than twice the next highest spender. In the final month, Sacks gave $1 million directly to Biggs’ campaign.

Nearby: Chicago, ILYaelokre Credit: Romarni Brytz Two years ago, Keath Ósk (born Christopher Kristjansson) began spreading folkloric magic online as Yaelokre, charming social-media audiences with an evocative style of theatrical folk pop that draws on their Filipino and Icelandic heritage. The most compelling aspect was that Ósk’s songs were consistently set in a fantasy world of their own creation called Meadowlark—which to me feels to me like part Redwall and part Watership Down. Ósk is a dramatic storyteller who enchants with wit, costumes, and charisma. They’re also an illustrator who creates artwork for their releases. After four EPs that revealed a fire in the belly, Yaelokre dropped a riveting debut full-length, Foreword (Atlantic), in September. The album includes reworked versions of earlier material, including their first viral hits, “Hartebeest” and “Harpy Hare.” They fit into a powerful folk-rock narrative but also dance around in the grass, unwilling to be pinned down by genre.

Nearby: Chicago, ILCHICAGO — Chicago voters largely support the state implementing an additional tax on millionaires, the creation of a standalone festival grounds and the resumption of gunshot detection technology throughout the city. That’s according to the results of several non-binding ballot referendums Chicagoans had the chance to vote on in Tuesday’s election. Voters got to weigh in on at least six questions, while some also saw ward or precinct-specific ones. Voters answered in the affirmative by wide margins on each ballot measure with more than 90 percent of the city’s 1,291 precincts having reported results as of 11 p.m. Tuesday’s referendums don’t trigger any automatic change in law or policy, but will likely be used by politicians and advocacy groups to make a case for some of the issues and ideas included.
