In 1789, Thomas Jefferson writing to James Madison, extolled the Constitution for instituting β€œone effectual check on the Dog of war by transferring the power of letting him loose from the Executive to the Legislative body.”

Got myself up at the ass crack of dawn, drove home, and while that drive sucked, I am so glad to be home

My biggest beef with weekend #wmata when there’s track work is that it’s impossible for them to give accurate arrival times. I arrived at waterfront 5 minutes ago when the train was 5 minutes away. It is now 3 minutes away.

again we do not really do a good job of explaining how wealthy people like Jeff Bezos are

his net worth is $253.2 billion.
so he could take one million dollars, and just light it on fire
and then do it again tomorrow
and again the day after that
and then do it every day for 693 years and 8 months

I posted this on Threads and got asked if I was sure I wanted to post, so let me also say here, with my full chest, FUCK JEFF BEZOS.

I actually left my office for a break before an all afternoon meeting, and it felt delightful.

Unreal. He’s shutting down the Kennedy Center, after his flunkies caused mass defections of artists?

Everything the man touches turns to ash. Our cultural heritage; destroyed. Our national treasures; plundered.

It’s so heavy when you are going to get groceries and you find a car sitting with its windows broken out and it’s empty but still running and someone’s stuffed animals or pictures or papers are just laying all over the road. I have personally seen at least five of these in the last three days alone

To the snow plow tracker credit - last time I looked O St SW was still untouched πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ so at least that’s accurate for me 😬😬

@cmcharlesallen.bsky.social my street, 4th St, 4th and M. How can residents move about the neighborhood without busting their bums? Most sidewalks seem ok but crossing the streets damn near impossible. O St still hasn’t seen a plow.
