Something going down at 17th and Newton Street. I lost count of the emergency response. It's a sea of flashing lights at this point.

If That Man wants to micromanage the city of DC, can I start sending him my pothole complaints and other 311 reports? Someone suggested postcards.

That Man wants war with Canada in four years so he can claim it is too dangerous and delay elections. Did I get that right? He always reveals his plans by what he accuses others of, in this case his obsession with Zelensky.

I have even more respect for Volodymyr Zelenskyy. If only America's leadership had half the good sense and self possession. Instead we get bullying and tantrums. And the Toxic Twins droning on and on about "respect" like the weak losers they are. I am ashamed.

The IRS was a simple test for DOGE: was it really interested in efficiency and state capacity? If so, you support the tax enforcement, the biggest ROI in govt. Or did it want to minimize parts of the state that bothered billionaires? We have our answer.

If anyone from That Man's administration complains about how the DC government handles the snow, they should be allowed to handle it. Either my parents' street will get plowed or Those Men will be humbled.

Not surprising. Still disgusting. And the name is just petty. Would they do this if the mayor were a White man? (a thing that has never happened)

Suggestion to Americans: If you used a current bank account with funds on a recent tax return, it may be wise to contact your bank and request a change. Account and routing numbers are accessible, and Elon Musk’s staff have access to this information. Stay safe and protect your assets.

it genuinely sucks that basically nothing on the internet works well anymore. search? barely works. social media? filled with garbage engagement-bait designed to game the algorithm. news websites? pages that refresh at random or so covered in video ads that it’s impossible to read stories
