Stonewalling someone for being “too emotional” when they rarely and justifiably express feelings of anger or sadness…is sexism.

[Haunted Hive @haunted_hive]

“Hope this helps” is such an insane passive-aggressive phrase that nobody has ever spoken aloud.

It’s really important to remember that everyone is learning as they go. You don’t need to constantly second-guess your own expertise, knowledge and instincts.

[City of Hyattsville @HyattsvilleMD]

PLEASE AVOID THE AREA! We have observed pedestrians taking photos on the tracks. CSX is preparing to remove the train cars and there is a danger of flying debris as cranes lift the trains.

⚠️ There was a train derailment at the intersection of Alt. Route 1 and Decatur St. early this morning. Alternate Route 1 is closed in both directions between Decatur and Charles Armentrout Drive; please avoid the area. Follow @HyattsvillePD for updates.

Honestly, I’m just compelled by bands that are in earnest about making the stuff they want to make, that have an idea & are going for it.
That will always translate for the audience: caring.
Pretending it doesn’t matter, feigning ironic apathy, etc… what a bore that is.

For the record: the air was super hazy in the DMV today from forest fires in Alberta this week. Nobody I encountered today seemed to notice, (or didn’t talk about it if they did).

Is it a labor violation if my office retreat includes taking a personality test, eating lunch at a steakhouse with no veg options, and being forced to do “team karaoke” sober in our office conference room?

[Haunted Hive @haunted_hive]

🔈If anyone is trying to hire keyboard players or vocalists for touring (at a livable wage), I want to put it out into the universe that I’m interested! I’m very average at both, but I can harmonize & I’m not afraid to get wild on stage. 🎹

[dollar signs the band @DollarSignsBand]

my diy hot take is that every single established music venue should have a house drum kit and cabinets. let us eliminate the passenger van from the equation. please.

For all the local dead/dying mall aficionados among us: Gaithersburg’s Lakeforest Mall will be closing forever on the 31st.

@heykitzy I’ve been doing the same experiment with office job applications/resumes for the past 10 years with similar results. It’s so depressing! @Praise_Sharm’s idea is truly inspired.

[Haunted Hive @haunted_hive]

@ahmadmzaghal There’s been less hype about it for the past 10 years, but yes, it has really fallen off in the past 3 years.

[Haunted Hive @haunted_hive]

@heykitzy I’ve been through this with freelance writing. Would NOT call them out for several reasons.
1. Say you’ll have your lawyer contact them if they don’t return communication by x date.
2. Have an attorney send a letter.
3. Take it to small claims court if the $ is worth the energy.

[Austin Evans @austinismadx]

Every single touring band has a nightmare story of driving from Denver to Salt Lake City or vice versa and I hope everyone knows how insanely dangerous it is to make that drive, especially during the winter.

[Haunted Hive @haunted_hive]

@wmataGM @wmata I’ve noticed a lot more people smoking cigarettes on Metro escalators & station platforms in the past several months. Usually there are employees & cops watching it happen. Why does WMATA repeatedly neglect public health & 🔥 safety?

[Sophia Benoit @1followernodad]

Reading interviews with people in East Palestine, Ohio where the train derailed is so heartbreaking and insane. People are like "all my pets died" but then they're being told to move back into their houses.

[Erin Brockovich @ErinBrockovich]

I’m trying to gather information on this very serious situation in Ohio involving a train derailment with hazardous chemicals.

What I will say is this. Trust your eyes, ears and nose and get the hell out of there if your senses are telling you too.

This time of year can be tricky...because CARBON MONOXIDE toxicity can mimic things like the flu or a viral illness.

Carbon monoxide is an odorless, tasteless, invisible gas that comes from things like automobile exhaust, fires, fuel-burning heaters, gas stoves, generators, etc.
