Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 12/06/2026Looks like they’re testing the UFC lights at the White House 100
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 16/04/2026Anyway here are some glamour shots of the flight into DCA 030
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 16/03/2026Looking forward to the Bowser administration’s storm response 011
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 02/02/2026I got my 2025 unwrapped from @bikeshare.bsky.social. Did not realize my streak was so long! One note: I reduced my ebike use when the price increased in August. #bikeDC 130
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 02/02/2026I’ve thought it evokes National Baptist Memorial Church at 16th and Columbia 120
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 30/01/2026A block away, a two-way street has just one lane, causing both vehicles to get stuck and rendering the street impassable for everyone. There is an elementary school on this block! (Behind where I stood.) I took this photo at arrival time. This is what DCPS is welcoming students back to. 000
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 30/01/2026This is what @ddotdc.bsky.social considers a cleared protected bike lane. It’s blocked by snow where I stood, and halfway down the block, it’s full of snow. There is no bike lane on this street right now. (Columbia Rd NW b/w 16th and 17th Sts.) 100
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 26/01/2026Watching the DC Bike Walk and Bus PAC Ward 1 candidate forum and one thing is clear so far: candidate Terry Lynch (off camera) is wrong on every issue. 4105

Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 24/12/2025“Star Trek: Body by Starfleet: A Fitness Guide” is a silly read for anybody who is into Star Trek and fitness. If you’re new to either one, this isn’t the book for you. But if you want to see exercises reframed as Star Trek maneuvers, this will give you a smile. 100
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 24/12/2025In “Dear America: Notes of an Undocumented Citizen,” Jose Antonio Vargas describes the difficulty growing up as an immigrant, which multiplied when he learned he was undocumented. Published in 2018, it captures only some of the Trump administration’s war on immigrants. 100
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 24/12/2025The best book I read was also the oldest. In “Pedro & Me,” The Real World: San Francisco cast member Judd Winick remembers Pedro Zamora. For many gay men growing up in the 90s, Zamora was the most visible queer representation. Winick’s remembrance of his friend, killed by AIDS, brought me to tears. 100
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 24/12/2025Unless something unexpected happens, this is the final tally of my year in reading. Definitely my most literary year so far. 120
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 18/12/2025Happy anniversary to this email from @mayorbowser.dc.gov 040
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 22/11/2025The Washington Post editorial board takes the brave stance that maybe you would get more work done if you slept just 2-4 hours a night 120
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 04/11/2025I see someone once again has written me an email addressed to John rather than Jon 000
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 25/10/2025This absurd plan is what happens when you ask Grok to design your ballroom. www.nytimes.com/interactive/... 140
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 22/10/2025I don’t know if she’s going to run for mayor, but these are the policy positions we should be hearing from the mayor’s office www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202... 030
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 25/09/2025News: Ward 1 councilmember @brianneknadeau.bsky.social says she will not run for reelection 010
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 22/09/2025Shana Tovah! Wishing you good health and joy as we enter 5786. 000
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 18/09/2025Thinking about Ann Telnaes’ cartoon that the Washington Post refused to run 062
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 18/08/2025I’m glad there won’t be any brand confusion between MS NOW and NBC News’ existing 24 hour stream 010
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 15/08/2025Are you curious about the federal government's rulemaking activities? You can go pound sand. This website used to show a dashboard of all agencies' actions. 000
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 12/08/2025This is their response? Pathetic excuse for a local editorial board. 170
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 11/08/2025Good morning from Malcolm X Park, where the only federal personnel onsite is one (1) person emptying trashcans. Also, someone wheatpasted this paper to a lamp post. 020
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 26/07/2025If the National Park Service wants DC to be “safe, beautiful, and prosperous,” maybe stop arresting picnickers and cut the grass/fix the fountain in Malcolm X Park. That’d be beautiful. 060
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 23/07/2025This list doesn’t mention the armillary sphere in Malcolm X Park! It’s lovely! www.nps.gov/places/000/n... 000
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 16/07/2025Has anybody asked former council member Trayon White whether he would have voted to fund ranked choice voting? 010
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 29/06/2025I guess this map is finally, truly dead #WMATA 043
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 19/06/2025Rainbow for good luck over @nationals.com Park! @capitalweather.bsky.social 1313
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 18/06/2025When the Ptown house is trying to decide where to go for dinner 020
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 12/06/2025Passed a guy on the sidewalk downtown who was smoking a cigarette and wearing a t-shirt that said Make America Healthy Again. Here we go. 020
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 11/06/2025Took a solo trip to Maryland’s Eastern Shore for a few days. The biting flies were relentless but the vibes were tremendous. 040
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 07/06/2025Got a #pridetrain after leaving Night Out at the Nationals! 020
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 06/06/2025If you are in DC during World Pride, make sure you check out the Welcome + Visual Arts Center! Info and art about Pride around the world, panels from the AIDS quilt, merch, and free books! 063
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 02/06/2025Spotted a rainbow @bikeshare.bsky.social for the first time this pride season! 1130
Jon Steingart @jonsteingart.bsky.social · 31/05/2025Did someone at @bikeshare.bsky.social forget to change the scheduled push notifications? 120

Winning elections requires showing up to work
No one expects DNC staffers to be as hardcore as Japan’s prime minister, but they can come to work.
