Arts, DC culture, musings on my dog, and useless knowledge...not necessarily in that order.

@CrookedMedia Volunteering at an event today in Atlanta with @DNC Chair Ken Martin. Anything I should be on the lookout for? 😂

The value of $1 in 2026 is only 60% of what it was in 2006...

[Chris Merkle @camerkle]

@CrookedMedia, here is something I have not seen/heard discussed and I have no idea why.

My gas tank is 2/3 full. Gas has gone up $.55 cents at that station since I filled up...

[Chris Merkle @camerkle]

Why, then, once their know what consumers are willing to spend for their products, would they ever lower costs to pre-crisis levels ever again? Pre-Iran war, were prices as low as they were before COVID, before the 2008 hosing crisis? No, and they never will be again.

@NDFootball @underarmour What color are the ND Shamrock uniforms tonight?

A question for @CrookedMedia: Why is support for Israel a given? There are lots of other countries whose people we support but whose leadership we do not. Why is it just assumed that we support everything Israel without question?

@steelers Why ALWAYS check-downs!? You have Dionte Johnson and George Pickens! All passes are check-downs. Spread the field! Doesn't help at all! #FireMattCanada

[Chris Merkle @camerkle]

@steelers FIRE MATT CANADA! All these weapons and not using them! It can no longer be ignored. It's time.

@RuinedPodcast Consider doing Skinamarink. Unlike any movie I'be ever seen. Is it great? No. But it's unique.

Grateful for a weekend of family. Parents visiting from PA and my sweet daughter with me for a couple days. She truly brightens my world ✨

I'll know I've made it when the majority of my mail is addressed to me and not "XXXXX or Current Resident" 📫

Me entering my thirties:

Okay, this is some straight up Paranormal Activity sh*t! Got home and Chloe's monitor was on. Chloe's monitor hasn't been on for weeks!

Until I remembered that the power went out earlier and it comes on when connected to a power source.

Ugh, what is sleep? Must be nice 😴

Really, @ARITZIA, what is this supposed to be? I'm a musician, trust me, that's no instrument.

@PodSaveAmerica, Joe Biden has said that he sees himself as a bridge to a future generation. Does the conversation about the party beyond 2020 change if he picks Duckworth for VP? Born in Thailand, she cannot hold the Presidency.

@GovKemp @KeishaBottoms And she's the only one acting responsibly, @GovKemp! You want to stick your head in the sand while remaining the sycophantic lap-dog that you are to Trump! The only ones who will remember your name will be the families of those who died because you refused to act!
