Just leaving the theatre now. I absolutely loved it. Extremely funny, irreverent and surreal. It does take a few liberties that are either inaccurate or misrepresenting [concrete does not have a 40 year life span, he combined footage from WoC and ACI - but only dorks (me) are gonna notice]

Walking Stella and some lady just stopped me (8th and Maryland) to ask if it was safe for her to walk to 12th and Maryland. We did an about face and walked her to 12th (it is obviously safe, but if you feel uncomfortable enough to ask a stranger, then Stella and I are gonna be your NE detail)

I caught the cutest thing ever on the Katmai bear cams

This is a facile view of the LDS community, completely at odds with how the Church flexed its overt political muscle DAYS ago in both Nevada and Idaho to oppose pro choice initiatives. There is a strain of small c conservatism, but party loyalty comes first, especially on social issues.

Fantastic synthesis of the work of hundreds of talented scientists and researchers. Co-led by @costasamaras.com (bald by choice, not by fate). My only critique is that they didn’t lead with SCMs as easy decarb, but no one is perfect. In light of the NCA news, this is both good and important work

Recently, Russia has launched a large-scale, targeted campaign of strikes against the assets of American companies in Ukraine. More than 50% of American companies operating in Ukraine have suffered damage from Russian missile and drone attacks.

Dawg, my climate “allies”… I love DC because almost none of my neighbors were born here. When I was growing up, my teachers were from: Alabama; Virginia; California; Quebec; France, Cameroon; India; and Spain. My neighborhood looks like that now. Same place I was born and raised. And it rocks.

Great thread. People ragged on Biden era community benefit plans, but they were a very real solution to a longstanding problem: how can this project meaningfully be a good neighbor. The arrogance that some DC devs approached this was astounding, and it’s painted the entire industry as negligent.

“Sensible, non-bigoted arguments” I have heard federal district arguments my entire life, all of them are grounded in racism, cruelty and hatred. Trump is just less subtle I appreciate that you’ve reversed your position, but don’t pretend your Romney Republican arguments are valid while his aren’t

This is a picture of the tidal basin’s cherry trees. The actual trees that were cut down are at the East Potomac Golf Links, an existing public golf course, that Trump is seeking to overhaul. Why do big accounts continue to lie about DC (I know why) - it’s just so bizarre.

I really dislike posts like this. It’s cynicism masquerading as poignancy. It completely discounts the work that millions of Americans, myself included, are currently doing in support of a healthier climate. Betting on climate is disgusting. There are better ways to talk about this.

Instead of doing something about climate change, Americans are just going to bet on it:

Man, you know DC late summer has arrived when the cicadas start sounding off. When I was a kid, it meant the start of my dad taking me to soccer practice and the end of my mom’s summer meals. Couple more weeks and we’ll be at that moment when DC is the most beautiful place on earth.

I can only speak to the policy part of this effort (not finance or campaign), but I want yall to know that the pencils are out. And they have been out. January ‘27 will be the sandbox, January ‘29 will be the change. Decarbonization is going to give you cleaner air and cheaper electricity.
