Huge shout-out to Alexandria CERT, also. My son trained with the Teen CERT program last year and still raves about it.

This is top tier punnage.

So, my wife and I watched "Sirens," and, uh...yeah. That was something.

I would've liked it 100% more had it ended like "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" -- Devon smothers Simone with a brocade pillow and then hucks the horse sculpture through the sliding glass door to run to the ferry.

Holy crap, that's a great mixtape!

Once more to Canaan House!

I just need ONE MORE PERSON to return their copy and then I can listen to it. Again. For the fourth time. #TeamGriddle

that calls into question their competence, their motives, and their trustworthiness. The students will get the benefit of my doubt, every time.

First Amendment law isn't my area of practice, but I certainly plan to spend this weekend revisiting it and speaking up however I can.

I'd share that I've known the current editor of Theogony (and his family) since preschool, and trust his assessments and judgement near implicitly. On the other hand, the current Superintendent and her Central Office staff have repeatedly and publicly exercised a level of judgment

Bluesky peeps, a friend is in need of recommendations for a personal/income tax attorney in MD or DC. Anyone y'all can recommend?

Happy Birthday, @josephfray.bsky.social!!

Dinner, Night #1: 3 Rositas, and then a plate of homemade nachos.

Two adjacent Threads posts: one advertising a banned book-themed speakeasy in Alexandria, and the next asking, "Are we really still doing speakeasies in 2025?"

Shot, and chaser, in the timeline. Ouch.

A bag labeled "Duty Free Store"

Enough bottles of maple syrup to choke a Mountie, eh?

Big brain idea: hitting up the Duty Free shop in the Canadian airport...

... to restock the strategic maple syrup reserves.

The Trinity Sessions -- still one of the greatest albums I ever bought. On cassette tape, no less.

Big same. I had to make my peace years ago with the reality that TWOW may never come out.

Give. Us. Alecto. The. Ninth.

(please)

Yes, Del Ray Baptist - have used this one for our learning driver. Also, First Baptist on King St is good for practicing sharp parking lot turns and friction points, since it's on an incline.

That cover is amazing.

You scruffy hooligans!!*

I think they were bought by the company that makes (made?) Saranac beer, which is as old school as it gets. But their "fight me" attitude toward being rightfully accused of misogyny made me drop their stuff many years ago.

A glass of beer next to a bottle of The Truth, a ridiculously tasty drink by a brewery that sold out and betrayed the entire State of Maryland.

I don't buy Flying Dog anymore, but I really wanted one of these today.

Age yourself with a movie you saw in the theater.

Hmmm. Danny McBride in a cowboy hat piloting a ship (badly) around a landscape arrayed with dead Engineer types looking like the statue people from Raya and the Last Dragon?

The hybrid Alien was creepy af, that's for sure. But worth it to see the Ash-esque synthetic get a face full of asteroid belt.

Last 15 minutes or so of that one was awesome. But still prefer "Covenant."

*WHEW* I misread your post as the "best beer in America" going up 25%. Fortunately, @portcitybrew.bsky.social Porter is still about $12 a six-pack.

100% on board with this idea.

The Gen X erasure on Strands today.

Nate, I am sending so many prayers your way.
