Link needs to come retrieve his Star Fragment.
One must imagine Sisyphus perpetually mitigating the length and sharpness of his baby’s rapidly growing fingernails.
It’s the electeds from out of town. DC’s own politicians haven’t had a good sex scandal in decades.
Here is my best Habermas story.
I am grad student waiting in LONG line for Habermas talk. There is a tall man waiting in front of me. Line moves so we are eventually visible to organizers, a woman looks over & makes horrified face. Runs out: "Prof Habermas! You don't have to wait in line!"
Would make way more sense to have it in conversation with, like, the Douglass Bridge
Absolutely. My best friend Jesus also loves some real dirtbags.
These guys are speedrunning 2006
Andy Harris (my old rep) is underrated as one of this congress’s great stinkers
who are you trying to attract Jose
Kathleen was asked by a coworker about how they could learn more about the ASL Interpreters Union, which is organizing workers who serve Deaf people making phone calls. Kathleen's manager overheard. Two days later, she was fired.

242 - Front Door Bench *
People like to watch the street.
It’s a small comfort to know her Hillwood estate here in DC (!) is in good hands.
This is @atherton.bsky.social bait.
I like the conclusion here that it probably wound up spreading (!) within the Pyrenean region before outsiders picked it up from multiple coasts. www.bonappetit.com/test-kitchen...

DC’s National Gallery rules. Ultrarich guy causes Great Depression, FDR investigates for tax evasion, guy gives all his art (including old masters bought at Bolshevik fire sale) to the government. No entry fee, and every Tuesday morning you can bring your baby to swat at some Magnatiles.
I warmly recommend this piece by @brendanboyle.bsky.social on Spain, (over)tourism, and an a brilliant new ad campaign from Andalusia. Come on down and be a tourist in Spain. But be a good one.

88 - Street Cafe **
The street cafe provides a unique setting, special to cities: a place where people can sit lazily, legitimately, be on view, and watch the world go by.
It dulls every mind that uses it, without fail. (Okay, for writing. I’ll say “for writing” because I am sure different non-consumer-grade tools are making great medical breakthroughs, probably.)
The Reading Rainbow videocassette of this book was obligatory annual Pascha prep in my house
One of the powerful things about leaving behind the rather wooden literalism of my youth vis-a-vis Genesis is coming to appreciate what a radical and deep-reaching critique the poetic historical accounts of this book contain, made all the more potent by its liturgical embedding in the Lenten cycle:
Thank you (although that link doesn’t work for me)! What about westbound?
@metrobusinfo.bsky.social Not sure if replies here are monitored, but getting inconclusive info on where the D1X is/should be picking up near 14th and Pennsylvania SE.
Apparently Beverly The Secret Coca-Cola Amaro is clear, which is absurd. Such a drink ought to be black with tinges of dark green.
I am not a Disney guy but I must try the secret Coca-Cola amaro.
Thinking about Alan Eyre, the State Department’s Persian-language spokesman in the JCPOA days, who brought on a lot of good will for reciting proverbs and having a favorite Iranian soccer team.
