Some messages are printed on 18-by-24-inch yard signs or smaller placards; others are drawn ornately by hand on paper or written in chalk. The few who will talk about the signs they created say the urgency of the moment compelled them to act. (🎁link below) wapo.st/4nJqjZQ

Today I saw the ribbon cutting of Yeleen Beauty Makerspace. It’s a manufacturing facility in Ward 7 from the mind of Rahama Wright, founder of Shea Yeleen. She sources shea butter from Ghana and I’ve been following her for a story about how this DC business is affected by tariffs. Stay tuned.

Attn D.C. residents: Have you seen signs or memorials like this anywhere around the city? Please DM me. I’m trying to locate as many of these as I can.

These were being given out at a Metro station this morning

I saw residents in Columbia Heights tonight meet at an intersection at exactly 8:00 p.m. to bang on pots and pans as a form of protest. Just days earlier, they witnessed two people being detained by authorities.

Some of the same authorities I saw on social days ago are back at RI Metro station. That video showed some vitriolic responses from people at the station. Definitely seems like this is a location they’ll return to. I’ve seen little here beyond fair dodging in my years commuting to/from work.

Went to see the movie with my brother. He’s a big F4 fan and loves Galactus. I couldn’t resist, and got him this insane🍿bucket. It was worth every penny just to see his face. Oh, and I loved the movie. Thought it was pretty solid.

We needed that

Beuchert’s Saloon is closing. I have some history with this place that I may detail later. But for now just pouring one out for a really beautiful, imaginative restaurant that brought a lot of joy to the area. You may find me there later this week having a cocktail before they close.

Still a chance for a Bill/Eagles SB🤞🏼That’s what I’m hoping for. I think that would be a SB for the ages!

Looks like we have a date with Washington next week. GO BIRDS!!!

While this NFC Divisional game is on, I’ll just point out that it’s the probably the last time that the White House’s occupants are wearing kelly green (at least for the next four years).

Hi, Kellen 👋🏽 Please just hand it off to Saquon Barkley the rest of the game. He can take it from here. Thanks. Go Birds.

The Phillies have acquired lefty starter Jesús Luzardo in a trade with the Miami Marlins, sources told @TheAthleticMLB . They're doubling down on a deep rotation. Details on the trade -- and what is going to Miami -- here: www.nytimes.com/athletic/601...

The Post’s CEO, Will Lewis, hasn’t done a town hall with his employees in well over 170 days and despite repeated requests. For some reason, he doesn’t seem to want to answer our questions. So @postguild.bsky.social members went down to his office to find out why. He wasn’t there.
