Science stuff, but not a scientist. Old skoool DCist (RIP!) and former Eater DC. Baltimoron at heart. Very random posts about food, art, climate, science, publishing, and journalism.
I tried one of the fruit ice creams today. This one had real fruit (though a bit silly because it’s frozen pretty hard). Also at least for one video about them I watched people don’t realize the plastic on the bottom is functional against drips.
And the chicken dum biriyani, which at American spicy is plenty strong. (I’ve had the next level up and it’s delicious but more pain than I can do at this age.) The container is always packed to the gills and I always spill a bunch. The shorba makes it.
Really enjoying this truncation and I need to come back and try these eggs.
Just some National Guard protecting the Boqueria on 19th. And even more further up a very safe and people less blocks up.
Checked off Asian Art today and added a new idea. Sit behind the Lincoln and watch planes descending.
Yes and I found this. In the basement. Which was what I assumed. But also. 🥴
Late start at Fort Reno, but Loose Leash is very good. looseleash.bandcamp.com/album/loose-...
Sad to consume my last jar of Senor Fields salsa, a last remnant of Fresh Fields that was purchased by Whole Foods. They also had a chipotle option. Would curse Bezos solely on this being gone. (Plenty of other reasons obvi)
I’ve lived in DC for 20+ years. @heathermg asked about DC bucket lists. What’s missing? And a list of things I’ve done and recommend.
Also these road markings are hot garbage. People parked in a traffic lane, people parked in what is marked as a bike lane. This is also right outside the entrance for the Western Ave @wmata.com bus depot. @ddotdc.bsky.social
I can’t even imagine getting pulled over by the DC metro transit police. What are they allowed to pull you over for? MPD pulls over almost no one ever for some of the most egregious stuff. He did pull over a BMW so there’s that.
I have to assume this comes with a pork chop in the pocket. Because I can’t imagine any woman being excited to wear this style for any other reason.
Spain’s 16 (Rodri) doing the Caganer position seems about right for who is in the pic.
Had a lovely Lyft driver who had pride stickers and buttons in his car. He also had candy and video games. Told me 4th of July he had many customers with heat stroke, 10 min drives were an hour, and hotels charging min $500 for rooftop bars.
Feel like I’m getting trolled by the neighborhood fountain. (The liner is light blue.)
For context, air quality across the country looks like this, but it may also be where the monitors are located as this is data from privately owned devices.
Can someone explain to Stu Holden that a nutmeg is not solely kicking a ball between someone’s legs?
After certain people, the folks who came up with this should go straight to jail. Just like those people who love banana candy.
Just saw Thee Marloes at Comet Ping Pong and they were sooo good. You should listen to them.
