Monday’s third goal, too!

Thanks! 😕

Love this. Can’t wait. But have there been any updates about Casey… ? It’s been a long time

Yup. Hostile to media… and *completely uninterested* in journalism.

A maddening, in-depth explanation of how parks in DC are managed (and what the Prez can and can’t do about it) - thanks to @maustermuhle.bsky.social @51st.news

Dear @nwslsoccer.com: As long as this continues to be how you welcome fans to your app, I refuse to use it. There has got to be a better way…

I’m still puzzling over how they even had a dildo with them to begin with

And on a related note, excellent thread here from @jessicahuseman.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/jess...

I wish people who crap on the “mainstream media” or investigative journalism who see how much damn time we spend working to get the facts right. Sometimes it reaches levels of absurdity (is it “and” or “but”? Is it “secret” or “furtive”?) but it’s all in service of actual truth.

This is a big deal but most of the coverage is superficial and misinformed. Good thing there is someone who spent a *decade* digging into this (@reveleth.com)! Excellent explainer 👇

We were thinking maybe the ref just couldn’t decide if it was intentional or not… ? 🤷‍♀️

Great example of local news explaining how government actually works - and the people who make it work. Thanks @maustermuhle.bsky.social @51st.news !

I’m confused about the next steps for birthright citizenship - on a nuts and bolts level. What are the next kinds of filings to expect? From whom (or what)? What will they be asking lower court judges to do? What big questions did SCOTUS leave unresolved that lower courts could actually address?

This story focuses on Pineapple St’s Hollywood-adjacent shows, but Pineapple was one of the most creative makers of longform, narrative journalism: HYSTERICAL, WILL BE WILD, BECAUSE OF ANITA, CATCH & KILL - just to name a few. This is very sad news!

I’m starting to wonder if those concussion tests are just cover-your-ass exercises… I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a player “fail.”

A meme using a screenshot from The Simpsons, a bus driver with the caption 'don't make me tap the sign' and below him a sign that has The 51st logo and says 'If 5% of the people who canceled their Washington Post subscriptions joined the 51st, we’d be fully funded.' with the website 51st.news/signup

*taps sign*

Tops all the others I’ve ever taken too!

Just came across this gem from an old editor training and it made me so happy all over again

And watching from home - we missed nearly all of the buildup because ION cut away for a “player profile” of… Croix 😒

Thank you - and I appreciate all your reporting!

Serious q: What are the norms for how much info is - or isn’t - shared about injuries? I.e. What’s up with Santos’s knee - how did that even happen? What are the prospects for Wiesner? Etc. Not asking you for answers… I’m just increasingly concerned abt persistent injuries + so little info.

+1 to that question

What do you think of the city's RFK deal? If somehow you haven't heard, the Commanders are planning a D.C. return. The city struck a $3.7 billion deal to bring the team back to RFK Stadium by 2030. Per the terms of the agreement, the…
