Spent the morning honoring #MartinLutherKingJr by cleaning Sligo Creek. If you lost your camping chair in the middle of the creek, we found it!

It took 10 shots to get this guy to smile at the Wheaton Arts Parade

Went to the Montgomery County Friendship Picnic at #WheatonRegionalPark According to lore, if a horse wipes its nose on you, you’ve made a new friend. Meet my buddy Lil’e —

New Jersey does it the longest

Didn’t have to buy that cat carrier after all

Young people have every reason to be enraged.

Looks like not watching the SOTU turned out to be a great decision.

The sign game was strong at today’s @noaa.gov rally.

Nearly 1 in 4 Republicans don’t think the state of the union is strong. Ouch.

The things we do to women (kudos to everyone who immediately got the West Wing reference)

Just a dog having a beer at Saints Row Brewing in Gaithersburg.

Silence is saying something, too. These @democrats.org will always be loud!

It's possible that Trump/Musk mass layoffs could be so large the US actually loses jobs this month. Fun fact: The US hasn't lost jobs in a single full month since the last time Trump was in office, per US government stats.

This is how you quit a job.

While the far right screams “lock him up”… we “lox him up!” @rep-jamieraskin.bsky.social holding a town hall at the auspicious and delicious Parkway Deli.

Attn #HousingBluesky If you're in the housing advocacy space, it's important to know what ALL the players are saying & doing. Rental housing economist, @jayparsons.bsky.social, a U of MD alum, cites Mont. Co. as a disfavored place for housing dollars. montgomeryperspective.com/2025/02/03/h...

Go @umterps.bsky.social!

Moving the ball forward on housing. @natalifg.bsky.social and Andrew Friedson introduced legislation to make @montgomerycountymd.bsky.social more affordable.

Everyone can give something. Lots of energy and volunteers giving up their weekend to make someone else’s life a little better at the MLK Day of Service. #MoCoServes

Dr. Taylor ordered the Code Red!

Could get used to having some personality in our government.

But Scott, what does this mean? Renter’s rents go ⬆️ big time bc there’s no cap on increases, like there is for homeowners Retails prices go ⬆️ bc store rents are tied to commercial property taxes Everyone’s property taxes jump bc of higher assessments This is how we all pay for the housing shortage.

Happy Penultimate Day of the Calendar Year to all who celebrate.

They played a little @terrapinhoops.bsky.social basketball at the baby races today.

And to all a goodnight

Leona: How do we get a desk like this? Dad: Go on the Joe Rogan podcast, maybe?

Nice things cost money. This is Dr. Taylor’s 1st proposed budget. He went big and bold because that’s what the moment is calling for. moco360.media/2024/12/18/m...

The Spacebook Theory

Mike is a smart guy. Well over 90% of education funding and school management is done at the state and local level.

When we under-resource schools & let the system run at less than its best, we’re harming kids who entrust us to properly educate them. As Montgomery Countians we should be pretty upset that we let this performance continue. We don’t have to accept it. montgomeryperspective.com/2024/12/11/m...

SOME BIG PERSONAL NEWS Dara and I found a baby. It was at Thanksgiving dinner that we got to hold for a while. That is all.

The Turkey Trot was amazing… telling from all the pics people posted on social media

Sending thoughts and prayers and positive energy to all those who took their turkeys out of the fridge to start thawing this morning. Have a happy Thanksgiving!

Does anyone know if this sketch artist does bat mitzvahs? There are scores to settle with some of my cousins and this would be perfect :)

Every fight counts.

What’s your favorite Thanksgiving food?
