Seems like there's zero chance that the Arts of War and Arts of Peace statue gilding projects by Memorial Bridge will be done by the 4th. Instead, residents and visitors alike are instead treated to these four eyesores right next to all the memorials.

I need everybody to understand that the Canadian Embassy's entry in the DC Pride parade was a pickup truck with a moose-shaped pool toy, a cardboard cutout of Hudson Williams, and a window-decal depicting a Blackberry. 10/10. No notes.

I'm sorry, from WHERE???

Great moments in UI design, @wmata.com edition.

The (West) half that was supposed to be open was padlocked and closed this evening.

It's not, but this just looks like a video glitch.

The Lyon Park listserv is at it again.

There have been a lot of wild threads recently, but this is easily the wildest one The OFFICIAL POSITION of the community association is that it cares so much about affordable housing that it wants a $150k kickback from a developer to fund a private playground, in lieu of funding affordable housing

Oh, come on www.bloomingdales.com/shop/product...

Fun fact: Dulles Airport is located entirely within a pocket universe located inside of this Metro pylon.

If I’m counting correctly, today marks the 15th straight election in Arlington that Clement has run in, and lost. #arlingtonva If at first you don’t succeed…. embrace fascism, and lose again anyway.

Sometimes, The Algorithm gets me.

Sigh. That AWS postmortem was written by an LLM, wasn't it? Real humans do not write like this.

Every hotel in the world has this same exact wall of stuff.

Wild that the key "success" of the unlawful military occupation of DC basically amounts to a very expensive Eagle Scout project.

Why is this elevator asking me an unspecified Yes/No question?

Seems legit.

So, I was replacing our toilet seat, and while unscrewing the nuts that held it on, I noticed this sticker for the first time..... PAPYRUS

Kudos to the USPS mailman who is just trying to deliver the mail on 14th St NW while the WorldPride parade happens all around him. Absolute legend.

Both Specialized and Trek have fairly upright, step-through frames, and it should be pretty easy to find a place that stocks them. Some of the more bespoke options are nice, but also expensive, and seem to prioritize twee over functionality (if that makes any sense)

Sickos: Yes... ha ha ha... yes

The photos taken by the broken Street View camera driving through the Lincoln Tunnel go hard.

Good morning. Please enjoy this DC-shaped puddle I saw on my way to work this morning.

Okay, so some of the reports about the safety of DC's waterways are overblown (I've inadvertently ended up in both the Potomac and Anacostia, and lived to tell the tale). However, I absolutely would not take my family swimming directly downstream of four active sewer outflow points.
