Love being a Nats fan watching us at mid 8th up 9-1 and then somehow lose 10-11 at the bottom of the 9th. Great job team!

mynews13.com/fl/orlando/n... So much going against Dems in FL but this is the strongest ticket (by candidate quality) they’ve put up since 2010.

Construction crews at the new commonwealth rail bridge going hard with extremely loud pike driving at 11pm despite the plan saying it’d end at 6pm. Sigh.

Had a coworker tell me today when Texas did it, it was “different” because “they” are paying democrats to move from California to Texas to rig that states vote. Texas gerrymandered to protect themselves. If you’re “Them” and want to pay me, lemme know! Not willing to move but am open to ideas!

It has become precedent that every time time someone returns home from vacation they text the group chat a variation of “I am once again breathing the clean and free air of Alexandria” This being said, I now am once again back in our free cities clean air!

Every candidate for Alexandria City Council claims to love the environment, yet not one has a plan to save the Braddock Road Glacier. This fragile, dirt covered natural [citation needed] marvel melts while they stay silent. This landmark needs leadership! Anti-glacier extremism is alive and well!!!

Starting to think my multiple shovelings yesterday were a mistake. I’ve layer is just solid concrete 2 inches thick on the cement. The parts where it’s on top of snow are so much easier to break and clean. The moral of the story is we should all procrastinate more.

Around 3 inches of sleet so far. Would have been 10-15 more inches of snow. Not sure if I’m fine with 8 inches mix or wish we had 20 inches snow rn

They say good habit formation is about repetition so next week I’m gonna walk my way back to the Houston Rec center for the 3rd Tuesday in a row and pound on its locked doors, closed due to snow-pocalypse, until I’m let in to vote. All are welcome to join. Snowshoes and sleds recommended.

I’m not sure how but if Sandy was still chairwoman the vote count would have been done impossibly by 9:00PM, not a minute later. No one gets between Sandy and her meeting schedules.

Kinda weird to be well informed in politics, read our local news often, and only find out while voting that Amy Jackson is back on the ballot. 5 day primary is nuts. Good luck EBP!

In my home town of Panama City, the hottest political issue for the last 2 years was if to build a walking path on the scenic beach drive. Tonight, the incumbent NIMBY mayor lost 70-30 and the city referendum voted 55-45 to build the path!!
