It continues to perplex me that Americans entrusted power to someone whose entire life was defined by self-enrichment, as if he would suddenly engineer an economic system that served the public rather than himself.

I wrote a thing!

The best thing we can do after it's built is call it the Ballroom of Mexico

Patiently begging to see what we've designed for her. #barkitecture

Say what you want about @gavinnewsom.bsky.social, at least he's fucking doing something to protect democracy instead of performative bullshit.

It's so unfair to make a $2M profit and have to pay $700k in taxes. Please help these poor people.

I've learned that every neighborhood that appears nice and safe is just one public works fuck up from turning into Gotham City.

Residents had concerns about "loss of available parking, lack of need, financial loss due to tree & landscaping removals, loss of environmental beauty & the 'natural feel' of the community, stranger danger, increased crime, littering, &, most of all, the worsening of stormwater flooding & erosion."

Ok, Dan Creedon, show me where the experiment of single-family zoning created affordable housing? You can't buy a single family house in Arlington for under 800k and if so, it's in disrepair.

When "establishment Democrat" candidates win primaries, DSA claims corruption and then shits on the party. When DSA candidates win primaries, they expect to be embraced. And vice versa. Can't the entire party stop this childish bullshit and just commit to supporting the nominee? Big Tent!!

Coaching the Dems in the Congressional Baseball Game is truly one of the coolest things I get to do.

My "way too early" list of 2028 Democratic Presidential Candidates: Wes Moore Pete Buttigieg Kamala Harris Gavin Newsom Gretchen Whitmer Andy Beshear And I'd be very happy with any of these being our next President.

It's wild that Takoma Park residents living next to the metro station are complaining about a high density development replacing the surface parking lot there. Their complaint? Not enough parking spaces. I guess these environmentalists need to drive 2 blocks? SMH

The tough man backed down like a little baby.

You know, GOP, you all could have impeached him. We gave you two opportunities.

The idiot actually started a trade war. WTAF

If NIMBYs get to limit housing, can we also limit the number of cars per household? I mean traffic is the biggest complaint they make when opposing more housing, so why not just directly fix the issue causing the traffic?

Um...

Thoughts?

Wait, I thought he was promoting electric vehicles in front of the White House yesterday?

Oh look, the government is helping Elon

“This is a human rights violation,” said Greg Thompson, an American tourist clutching a now-pricey ‘Toronto Moose Hockey Club’ hoodie in a Miami airport gift shop. “Without this, I’ll be forced to admit I’m from Ohio. Do you have any idea how humiliating that is?”

Must be hard to talk about foreign policy with the guy sitting across from you fucking a couch

I'd rather not have the Washington Post exist at all if it means billionaire oligarchs get to control the narrative. I know journalism is struggling right now, but for the love of god, stop selling your souls to the highest bidder whose goal is to suppress speech!!

GOP take note: Zelensky just showed you how to use your spine to stand up to a tyrant.

Does anybody want to buy my US Citizenship for $5 Million?

I have had this sitting in my tabs for five days, just thinking about it. old bay on ice cream, what hath god wrought dc.eater.com/2025/2/21/24...

My neighborhood is debating new sidewalks, so of course I couldn't resist joining in on all the fun. Here is my testimony I sent to @mcdotnow.bsky.social

Dear local politicians: It's unfair that you've burdened me and others to attend public forums to fight against NIMBY bullshit because you lack the courage to do what's right. If you sent a message that you reject their fascist views, maybe you'll disarm them from dominating your public forums.

The sidewalk debate continues. Our quiet little neighborhood might get a couple more bikes riding through it. Oh no!! And our "rural" character 1/4 mile from a major metro station is going to be ruined with a new sidewalk on one side of the street! Whatever will we do!

Our neighborhood is debating new sidewalks so if course the PhDs are asserting their weird theories to oppose them. My favorite: People have a better social experience walking together down the middle of the road and a sidewalk will destroy their ability to interact. You can't make this stuff up

MAGAs only believe in free market competition unless they are losing. That's why those who didn't put in the effort in school, job training, sports, life, etc. got beat out by those who did, and now want to change the rules to cater to their low-performing, unnecessary abilities.

It's weird that all the people that work for shit wages for shitty corporations are mad at well-paid federal employees that love their employer. And instead of demanding that their shitty corporation treat them better, they demand that federal employees also be treated like shit. Make it make sense.

I just learned that The Simpsons is still on the air. I don't know a single person that still watches it.

“I see this as a humane solution. Americans shouldn’t have to spend every moment of their lives realizing they live in a dystopian nightmare,” RFK Jr. explained, before adding, “We should reserve those moments for when they leave the country and suddenly remember everything all at once.”

I wish people read charts instead of listening to idiots.

Trump just got played by Putin.

SNL totally disrespected Sinead O'Connor tonight.

Let's fucking go!

If you want to know the impact of federal employee layoffs on our economy: 4 of my clients lost their jobs, a combined salary of around $500k, then paused or canceled their planned home renovations valued at a combined $1.5M. That's a huge impact for only 4 layoffs! Protect our Federal Workers!

Cities are not museums.

There's no better time to return this land to the natural landscape it once was by relocating these houses away from a fire-prone area, and instead, into a walkable, dense neighborhood closer to the city. To rebuild this neighborhood in the same dangerous location would be a huge mistake.
