That reaction doesn't cover the annoyed resignation encompassed by a good, "what happened now?"

You seem nice.

Did you come here to post your highly unimportant thoughts as well?

Buildings become eligible for the National Register at 50. This rule made sense in the 1960s but is now just a pain in the ass of tens of thousands of people who have to evaluate ugly ass buildings from the 70s for historic value. Of which there is almost always none.

It's the construction site of the old Landmark Mall at night, but with the camera panning during a long exposure, resulting in the blue lights on the cranes and the white lights of the building under construction blurring.

Of course @kaine.senate.gov is a coward who doesn’t have voicemail. But I’ve left a message for @markwarner.bsky.social to HOLD THE LINE!

I left a message for @markwarner.bsky.social informing the poor staffer who answers the phone that I plan on recruiting all my friends and neighbors to vote for his primary opponent in hopes of resulting in a Warner vote share akin to that of Eric Adams in the NYC Mayor's race.

in Toronto we aren’t allowed to build corner stores in neighbourhoods and we’re trying to change that so our mayor has to explain why corner stores are a good thing to NIMBYs like they’re children

You wrote the post with Beyer's and then the quote, which is not what the headline on the press release says. Your post is very unclear that he is quoting someone else.

The perpetual beleaguered tenants' rights legislation is almost guaranteed to pass. Parts of it got to Youngkin's desk last time and got vetoed.

Not a fan of this headline: you make it sound like the quote should be attributed to Beyer.
