Great reporting from @rachelweinerwp on the epidemic (so to speak) of vehicles with fake, expired tags wreaking havoc in our city. @BrianneKNadeau wants to do something about it but it appears @MayorBowser does not washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/…

Well, here you go folks, from a recent FOIA drop. @DDOTDC and the not parody @DDOTDCDirector is ignoring design engineers about safety for building projects that enrich neighborhoods to instead shill to a bunch of K st lawyers.

One of the most beloved free-to-use photos in the Library's collection is of Brünnhilde, for obvious reasons. We're happy to report that 2023 comes with a freshly digitized photograph of Brünnhilde from another angle. 😻

Counterpart was unlike anything else I’ve ever seen. The world split into two timelines, with a junction in Berlin where people and foods can pass through. JK Simmons is great playing two different versions of himself. I wish it had gone more than 2 seasons.

Sitting in on the @RockCreekNPS Beach Dr presentation and its honestly sad how clear it is that they don’t want people to use the park. If you think keeping Beach Dr open to people and not cars is important, it’s CRUCIAL you submit comments by August 11: parkplanning.nps.gov/beachdr…

in San Francisco, traffic diverters “trigger the trauma of displacement” and bus lanes are “the new redlining”
You’ve gotta hand it to SF NIMBY groups like @Calle24SF, they’ve mastered the art of using a woke vocabulary to push for regressive policies
Just weeks after its installation, the traffic diverter at 24th & Shotwell streets will be removed, the SFMTA said today. Community leaders said the median triggered "the trauma of displacement," while businesses simply found it ineffective.

Sharing the road, made simple 🚲 Protected bike lanes like these provide drivers and cyclists with greater clarity about where they belong on the road while also having the added benefit of discouraging speeding on city streets. #SlowerIsSafer #VisionZeroDC
