I'd be a little less bitter about my MoCo taxes going up by $1k next year if @MCDOTNow wasn't so busy installing completely useless stop signs and over engineered traffic circles in my neighborhood while completely ignoring intersections mere blocks away that actually need them

Remarkable statistic:
Prior to Western Michigan, college football teams were 110,352 - 0 when leading after the end of regulation, dating back to 1869.

Politico reports that GOP members of Congress can't find smart young conservatives to work for them.
Senior GOP congressional staffer:
“Everyone knows what the problem is: The organizations that bring young staffers to Washington, D.C. have spent the last decade prioritizing blind ideological loyalty instead of competence or intelligence. We have a generation of rabid, incompetent idiots.”
#hotcar 3189 (Red Line) - the paltry AC could not keep up with a crush loaded train (bc @Metrorailinfo is running trains every 8-10 mins at rush hr), and the ROC holding trains at each stop for a couple of minutes with the doors open.

Going forward, we can't have Obama AND Mamdani giving speeches in the same week or we'll start to get spoiled by literacy.
There goes the last reason I subscribed to WaPo...for 28 years on my own, plus 10 more reading it as a kid
Signs on the station boards saying the problem has been resolved yet taking 30 minutes to go two stations, fancy new MetroPulse App won't even load. It's like we're back to the bad old days of EREL here.

The Hilton donated the ~2600 dinners that went unserved at WHCD. They freeze dried the steak and lobster for longer shelf life before giving them to 2 shelters for abused women and children. HUGE thank you to the staff that worked through the night under terrible circumstances.

The same MFing judge who blocked the Purple Line for three years (costing taxpayers billions) to help his country club buddies won't apply the same rules to (checks notes) the demolition of the White House.
U.S. District Judge Richard J Leon denied a motion by the National Trust for Historic Preservation that would have temporarily blocked the Trump administration's construction of the new ballroom at the White House. Leon is requiring the government to submit the construction plans to the NCPC by the end of the year, however, and the DOJ said that the government has made "initial outreach" to set up meetings on this front. @JakeMRosen

If only there were a guide, some kind of book, Christians could consult.

There will be many majestic photos of the #Supermoon on this site tonight and tomorrow, but I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who got this lovely vantage point!

When there is a "schedule adjustment" at RI Avenue, what better way to use the time than to run on to the platform and capture this gem of a sunset tonight?

We are hearing a lot about our hometown in the media. This is our Portland today: people visiting Saturday Market, feeding geese, sipping espresso, biking, playing in the park, and going to food carts.

The D.C. police officers who were assaulted on Jan. 6 probably have some thoughts about this.
