Capital Bikeshare is a great way to get around Fairfax. With 10 stations in Old Town and Fairfax Circle, your favorite destinations are just a short bike ride away!

With @GovernorVA cell phone ban in schools, my daughter told me she needed to keep hers w/ her at all times so she can text me she loved me if/when a shooter enters her classroom. Ironically, Youngkin vetoed gun bills, but banned phones. We don’t have to live like this. #ENOUGH

Huge comeback win for the Patriots🔰

[Pete Gibson, Union Printer @peteymca]

These signs were so fun to design. We were struggling until @LynleeGThorne said “I wish it could just fucking say good neighbors feed kids fix roads and stay out of other people’s business!” and right then we had it down.
