I hate the Dulles people mover so deeply I take the train to C and walk to the D gates.

Women vs. men at work.
Me (woman): posts something
Man 1: we should create a Slack channel about it
Me (unwilling to be sucked into stereotypical women’s emotional/mommy labor at the office): Nothing is stopping you from doing it
Man 2: that’s a great idea!
<cue no slack channel being created>

Kennedy Center is real desperate now. I just got a 1:45 min voicemail about their programming. I feel awful for the people who work there. Based on the frequency of their marketing job postings it didn’t seem like a great job before and it’s worse now.

She sealed her doors and kept lights off. Her Pepco bill still nearly doubled Soaring electricity bills have left many Maryland residents demanding answers and relief. Experts cite a range of factors driving up energy prices. Soaring electricity bills have left many Maryland re...

Have seen nonstop ads from Pepco for deregulation to drive down costs for consumers. But what they propose actually comes at a cost passed on to customers. Controlling data center power consumption and other policies will drive down utility bills not dereg. Good piece. wamu.org/story/26/03/...

Can with label 100% organic banana water, Bananagua. Ingredients: bananas that’s it

Does not compute. Also as a person who is meh about bananas and think they ruin every smoothie. Ew.

The worst was thinking about how in the 80s, the so-called oldies station played stuff from the 60s and now that’s stuff from 00s.

ICE Moves Minneapolis Fleet to Williamsport Detention Warehouse As ICE builds out a detention infrastructure across the mid-Atlantic, equipment from its Minneapolis operation is heading to Maryland.

New reports that ICE is moving around 100 vehicles from Minneapolis to Washington Co, MD are alarming.

I’m pressing for answers & will continue to fight back against Trump’s lawless ICE & mass deportation operation in our communities. This is not what Marylanders want.

Port a potty on the intersection of two sidewalks

The choice of DC contractors on the PLUG project to put a port a potty at the intersection of two sidewalks rather than in the parking lane shows where priorities are in Ward 3. @mattfrumin.bsky.social

@jakehparrott.bsky.social any ideas?

The How to Get to Heaven from Belfast soundtrack is pretty much my life soundtrack from 2002-2004. It is perfect.

At least they will have something in common to talk about with MAGA grandma.

Cybertruck with custom wrap for Senior Care Venture Providers, which has services that include shopping and errands

This seems like the origin for Weird Al Yankovic’s Grandma Got Blown up in a Cybertruck

Saw Spring Silver at one of these
last year and loved them.

DC Punk Archives is accepting submissions from band for consideration for upcoming free shows at the MLK Library

I would like to see a children’s big wheel rally in front of the house.

I felt bad for the person who worked there, but I was polite if a bit insistent.

One semester of business law turned me into a monster.

Whole Foods T&Cs Scanner Accuracy If during checkout the scanned price of an item (excluding alcohol) is higher than the shelf price, Whole Foods Market will give you one unit of that item free, and all other identical items at the lower price. If the item is sold by weight, we will give you the first pound free and the rest at the lower price.

After a long hard day of work, I’m just a psycho arguing about the Whole Foods scanner inaccuracy policy.

“There’s no precondition that I must buy multiple items!”

Email to USA Hockey

Formal invitation to the hockey team sent,,, if any people with connections to the hockey team wanna have them email my team my bio. I’m for real. 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

I Falsified the Data in My Bestselling Book Everyone Poops It was all lies. Everything that I put forth as true in my book was fabricated, and I can’t keep the secret balled up inside of me anymore. I’m let...

I fudged the data.

I forged the studies.

I ask for your forgiveness.

Rice cooker bowl of brown rice, shiitake, and lap cheong seasoned with dark and light soy, sesame oil and shaoxing wine

Leftover lap cheong for my focaccia recipe, so I made brown rice with shiitakes and cut up sausage. For the rice cooker haters, this required zero vigilance.

Miriam Rothschild helped decriminalize homosexuality in England, was a codebreaker with Alan Turing, studied fleas and butterflies , gave tremendous amounts to schizophrenia research and was a pioneering advocate of art therapy. She’s cool as fuck.

Statement from TSA: “At this time, TSA PreCheck remains operational with no change for the traveling public. As staffing constraints arise, TSA will evaluate on a case by case basis and adjust operations accordingly.”

It seems bad that the government can issue a policy that hurts people and lie about whose fault it is with no repercussions. Exhibit 274318.

It’s the set it and forget it part plus if you make the fatal error of stirring cleaning the pot after is scarring.

My one white friend cooks rice often enough now that she thought it was her favorite purchase in the last 10 years.

Amazon's tax bill plunges after GOP tax cuts The 87 percent drop is largely due to a more generous depreciation break in the 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act.'

Thanks to the OBBB, Amazon’s tax bill for 2025 is $1.2 billion, down from $9 billion the year before despite a 45% jump in profits.
