Actually, winters in the DC/Baltimore corridor were pretty tame the last 10 years before you came to town, Joel, so I blame you (jk jk of course).

Not in Philly but just south on Baltimore and wholeheartedly concur. The price we pay for those 2 nice weeks we get of spring and fall each year.

Walking down Franklin St on Monday, almost every storefront had a sign supporting renovation vs relocation. It would be such an awful PR black eye if the admin took this away.

5 women, one women's team, and one mixed team have won Olympic gold medals for Team USA at these Olympics. Meanwhile, just one individual male athlete and no men's teams have won gold medals for Team USA

Makes you wonder: when will America start investing in men's sports

For the record, here’s the website about which she speaks. Thereβ€˜a nothing that says unsolicited pieces aren’t accepted.

#selfpublished authors have enough hurdles to clear. Degrading us while we try is a choice.

It takes a tremendous about of time to write something personal, work with it, and try to have it meet all of the guidelines for submission. It takes a tremendous amount of courage to actually submit it.

To insult the writer of a piece while rejecting her work isn’t necessary.

Ts and Ps to all the Baltimore fans (read: my husband) seething because had the Ravens brass done the right thing years ago, Mike McDonald would be their head coach instead of Seattle’s.

That look on Scheyer’s face … I need an iso on that to get me through the next week. Chef’s kiss. Well done, Heels.

As another Olympics gets underway, I am thinking fondly of the Paris 2024 logo. No one will ever rock a chic bob while also giving shampoo brand/dating app while also being a literal flame quite like she did

And also the financial resources for legal support, FOIAs, etc. People think journalism is just writing, but it’s a machine. A complicated, expensive machine.

My Ravens-fan husband is sick because the team fumbled the bag so bad on McDonald. He’s not wrong.
