@mhbaskin @ChelseaCirruzzo @DCist @wamu885 Do Arlington stories count?

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

@zosanb21 Plz tell me he is not currently a social worker

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

Constantly thinking about that time an exec at my job mentioned she wasn’t “used to” her new pay yet in reference to the 3% across the board increases we got.

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

The sheer number of staff I met who did not actually care about the population was unnerving. To top it off, many lower staff were on the verge of homelessness themselves due to wildly low pay. This won’t get better until we prioritize policy and systemic issues top down.

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

I worked at a men’s homeless shelter in MD and when the winter “season” was up their bed count would be cut by more than 50%. So on the first day that year my boss forced staff to throw out all belongings at 8am. They threw everything in the dumpster out back.(Continued)

National Park Service tearing down homes and throwing out belongings at McPherson Square right now.

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

Guys came back through the rest of the morning and to find literally everything they owned gone. All of one guy’s IDs had been tossed. Shelters are (mediocre at best) temporary bandaids on much larger issues and I think people would find a lot of what goes on in there appalling.

@zosanb21 My god this is such a good question

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

@zosanb21 Omg I need to know. Do they give them blankets? Cow-sized sweaters?

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

I want it to be known that I have not forgiven all of y’all who were out partying and going on vacations in 2020

@blurrysimp @Ticketmaster Was waiting for someone to say this - this line is a whole entire lie

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

@VapianoUK @alaina_mastrip @VapianoUK could you throw in a flight for 2 from the US? 👀 We’ve been personally victimized by the DC Vapi closures 😩

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

@alaina_mastrip Agree until I have a 20 minute connection to make and realize my trip would be ruined if that bag does not make it lol

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

@BusinessInsider @AkiIto7 Objectively false information and how about @BusinessInsider you stop pretending to speak for us

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

@sethmpk Our lease states if we choose to renew, rent will only go up max 4.2%. When we let our landlord know we wanted to resign he came back with a 9% increase and said if we did not agree to that he would be terminating the lease. Housing in this country is disgustingly unregulated.

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

PSA Arlington friends - real estate and property taxes did not increase from last CY. You probably already knew this, but your landoverlord is simply being a ✨greedy POS✨

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

@zosanb21 Underrated tweet

[Charlotte @chaar_lit]

@alaina_mastrip I think half of my meals came from Vapiano 😔

[duen / niko @datLucario]

hey so

if your local smoothie shop

-has the word “nutrition” in its name

-doesn’t have listed prices

-considers your smoothie purchase to be a “membership”

it’s an herbalife (MLM) front trying to dodge health code. call your local regulators. health department / food safety.

@Ticketmaster I just really feel like @Harry_Styles would not approve of this
