@vivian39_ Archives is very useful for the every-other-year jury pool service of DC residents.

@pensandpoison @rosehorowitch @TheAtlantic You would have "no interest" in reading Shakespeare if you were told "the Bard writes about queer desire"? Do you think he was unaware of it? Do you think it didn't exist in his world? What a narrow, blinkered, and willfully ignorant point of view you have.

@SonOfODell @iamalmostlegend I got 28, city slicker. 😄

President Trump's $1.776 billion settlement with the IRS is one of the single most corrupt acts in American history.

They moved fast to avoid the scrutiny of the judicial process, and very likely violated the Constitution. This is an outrage.

@michaelkohwchl That 35-year drought between '81 and '16 was brutal, tbh.

@Janon_Fisher @JimVandeHei @nytimes @washingtonpost Good question, I looked it up. Turns out the Nationals, Capitals and Wizards/Bullets (!) have all won more recent championships than their New York City counterparts. The only team you have that has more recently won a title actually plays in New Jersey.

is life just a series of days where you're tired in the afternoon and wide awake at night, running behind on weekly deadlines, and seeing pants get slim and big and then slim again over the years until you die?

I might rush the court if UNC ever showed up to play a mediocre ACC team on the road.

[Neil Watson @yawperdc]

@CountessesofUNC Really? Such restraint against their hated rival...checks notes...Arizona, from thousands of miles away? I was also amazed to learn that Kansas had never beaten a #1 team at home, then I remembered they've played in the Big 8/12 all those years.

Did we need a video from this asshole to know he doesn’t read books?

I miss having a president we could be proud of.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

To all the athletes representing @TeamUSA: I'm so proud of you. Your talent and perseverance have brought you to this moment, and Michelle and I will be joining Americans from across the country cheering you on.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

Donald Trump is withholding billions of dollars in New York infrastructure unless he gets Penn Station and Dulles Airport named after him.

This is not only brazenly corrupt. It is sick, twisted and egomaniacal. The time is long overdue for sane Republicans to stand up to Trump.

@dadgumboxscores Sorry to reply to myself, forgot the 1980 ACCT! Very forgettable TBH.

[Neil Watson @yawperdc]

@dadgumboxscores Peak Dean Smith era quite evident once he got it rolling in '67. Never lost 2 in a row again until '84 ACCT - '85 @ Duke. I don't quite follow the '80s line; UNC lost 1 time (@ Duke '81) from Jan. 1 1980 - 1984 ACC semis. Maybe you have the '79-'80 season (big 4 loss) twice?

[Rebecca Ballhaus @rebeccaballhaus]

Four days before Trump’s inauguration, lieutenants to an Abu Dhabi royal secretly signed a deal w/the Trump family to buy a 49% stake in World Liberty Financial for $500M, according to documents & people familiar.

The buyer paid half up front, steering $187M to Trump family entities and $31M to Witkoff entities.

The investment was backed by the UAE national security adviser, Tahnoon bin Zayed. The deal put two executives at his company, G42, on the board of WLF, alongside Eric Trump and Zach Witkoff.

I love this quote because it can be applied to so many situations.
