Weโre 7 miles from the White House. It is oppressively hot. Dangerously so. No one should be going anywhere near the National Mall for the next few days. Enjoy the fourth. From inside.
Perhaps I wonโt need that pickaxe after all. Thank you, Congresswoman @RepBeatty, for your courage and dedication to ensuring proper procedures are followed.
What a great way to celebrate you on your birthday, Uncle Jack!

Campaign signs and signature-collectors for Initiative 86, which would ban the production and sale of foie gras in D.C., have started popping up. Now, itโs true that no one produces foie gras in D.C., and geese arenโt exactly widely loved. (All that poop!) ๐ชฟ
@maustermuhle@51stnews Look forward to what you do next. Iโm not often on X, mostly on Threads. But I still check in on you and others on X for current info.
Good luck.
It's true! I'll still be local, though, and staying in local journalism.
Working with @51stnews has been a dream; I'm really pumped for what they're building. And it's *great* that they're hiring new reporters who bring new energy, new interests, and a new way of looking at D.C.
A watchful D.C. resident sent me a photo of something we havenโt seen in years; water flowing down the cascading fountain at Meridian Hill/Malcolm X Park. NPS started work on the long-dry fountain late last year, as part of a broader project to refurbish the park.
@amandacarpenter I was so happy to read this on Threads. You will be wonderful.
I mostly am not on this app and have missed following you more regularly. Best wishes.
We all know that a partner who stays through cancer has shown commitment far beyond any wedding vows. But Iโm quite thrilled to now be engaged to the man who has stood by me. #fuckcancer ๐๐๐
