All of the ones around 33rd and Hillen are gone too, I may have just missed a memo but it sure seems like we're just giving up here

Just saw all the new stop signs at the monument and yikes its really awful. One, it looks like shit. Every photo of the Washington Monunent now has 14 stop signs under it.

😮‍💨

Who follows me and could use a B/C lot pass for Friday?

Really

oh *that’s* why the neighborhood is oddly called “tuscany-canterbury”

more people should think of ‘safe streets’ in Bmore as ‘I have a right to safely walk and ride around my city without getting hit by a speeding car’

Now that the weather is finally warm we have at least one scooter crash in the ICU at any given time. Doing 28 mph with no gear and following the same rules as when scooters went 9mph is not smart!

One thing that happened during the vote-a-rama: A Van Hollen amendment to prohibit people who beat up cops or who have molested children from getting paid a reward from taxpayers. 46 Republicans killed it. www.senate.gov/legislative/...

Half million or so.

🚨 Baltimore City Accident Alert Vehicle Accident At West North Avenue And Park Avenue 📍 1300 block of West North Avenue 🚒 Units: T16, M7 Created with AI, info may be incorrect - check audio.

The 1300 block of W. Mt. Royal is a 30mph highway that runs through a college campus. It’s 20% speedier than Falls Rd, Roland Ave, or Charles St by Hopkins.

Maybe there’s context missing here, maybe it was a joke that didn’t land or she said jk jk, but it’s a 🤨 thing to say as the daughter of Puerto Rican immigrants, and as someone who identifies as being Puerto Rican as much as she does a New Yorker even though she wasn’t born or raised in PR 🤷🏻‍♀️

Think I voted for whoever did not have the fop endorsement it was the only difference I could find ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you walk the Charles St. Promenade, swing by Bonnie’s Peanut Shop on Charles & Saratoga.

Baltimore Bluesky people with kids who know more about public education than I do, any insights on candidates for Baltimore City's Board of Education candidates?

Over what time period does that happen, exactly?

i hate that "ooh i better fuel up while the price is low" is a thought that i can have now when i see $4.05/gallon

Crypto's total market cap has been cut in half since October. $2.1 trillion wiped out.

What did Maryland Gov. Wes Moore mean when he told a national TV audience that closed primaries were obsolete? His team said he wasn't talking about Maryland. But that didn't keep some independent voters from hearing what they heard. www.thebanner.com/politics-pow...

Who needs Russian or Chinese propaganda when you have the President of the United States carrying this kind of water?

Goose update

There are some interesting ones on the ballots, but name recognition & incumbency, tough to get anywhere near that.

And if you want to catch him playing a full live set, he’s going to be at Keystone Korner, Baltimore, this coming weekend. Tickets are available for streaming as well as in person. ❤️❤️❤️

Anyone who visits regularly noticed this thing has been on hold for over a year but never did I ever think they would revert the surface lot to parking, omg.

If only I had realized you could ask your parents for a peacock...(and her father was a minster in the Dutch Reformed Church, too!) Gerardus Duyckinck I, Wilhelmina Ritzema (ca. 1743–1813), From the Collection of the New York Historical.

Insane that Baltimore continues to fail to get anything built adjacent to one of the busiest intercity and commuter rail stations in the country. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Yeah I had to give up on light rail this year. It stinks to have to drive, but Maryland chooses to grossly underfund this service.

Firing up a little AI at work…

And I bet a lot of premium cars aren’t getting premium gasoline these days.

I do love an architect bio. I really need to visit the Peabody.

We live in a Lind house. It’s not quite as spectacular.

This was a fun one. Learned a lot about the Formula 1 phenomenon - including that only about 1% of auto racing fans make it to a race in person. As Zak says, "seeing a car go 200 miles an hour in real life looks a lot faster than seeing it on TV."

Little factoid I learned visiting the Ferrari museum in Modena, Italy: Enzo Ferrari always wrote in purple ink.

According to BPD stats this morning, Baltimore's homicide count is now down more than 71.% from the same time in 2022. Since 1970, there has never been a total below 50 at this point in the year. The previous record low was set in 2025, last year.

Going to the hippodrome and the orioles walked it off as my train pulled up to camden 🧡🧡

My main takeaway from the Senate race is that Maine is kind of a weird place.

I’d object if it were a woman so I thought I’d try to be even handed. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Is the Banner a newspaper?

Saw Iron Crow's The View Upstairs at the Theatre Project last night and couldn't recommended it highly enough. Gripping, terrifically acted, haunting. A really special and high-level production. And steps away from Greekfest!

If you only compare it with downtown Baltimore 🎁🔗

I love all of this, but my favorite is his theory that a quartz watch is powered by a quartz (rather than a regular ole battery).
