We were planning to get a donut from #KrispyKreme but the guys with the long rifles at Dupont circle reminding us we are under military occupation turned us around. #FreeDC #EndTheOccupation

On the Metro in DC. Though we saw aimless Fed agents last night, right now there are no bored armed agents of the state roaming, just loads of people heading to meet friends/family, and on errands. I’m repping @altusaid.altgov.info @solidstatebooksdc.bsky.social @freedcproject.bsky.social

Happy New Year from DC! M*mp may take our jobs and our personal data but he can’t take our joy! #FreeDC

It’s cold outside but we’re heating things up at the Black Cat Anti Inaugural Ball! @freedcproject.bsky.social

At UDC teach-in hearing about how DC residents were stripped of rights in 1800, then had home rule, then in the 1870s in reaction to Black men voting, stripped of rights again until 1970’s struggle for modern home rule @ankitjaindc.bsky.social Kelsye Adams Derek Musgrove @freedcproject.bsky.social

Before dawn on a metro not headed to an airport or Union station is full of people quietly heading to school or work or an errand. None of the phone conversations or frantic text/email typing of rush hour, just heads tilted down to phones & eyes closing sometimes, giving in to the lull of the train

Okay but it looks like the Dishonest Oligarchs’ Grift to Elon (DOGE) is going to run into some pesky little transparency laws.

Climate chaos is heart wrenching and created drought and year round fire conditions in CA. The proximate cause may be lines but the underlying cause is the dirty fuels those lines were carrying. Can the @nytimes.com please speak the truth about this?

The Chinatown exhibit is right next to the amazing exhibit of pre WWII Japanese American Artists. All fire and a may make for a great snow day activity? #Smithsonian #AmericanArt

Free transit makes me so happy. Mobility is divine. Gates are all open from 8pm to 2 am! Happy New Year! Thanks @wmatagm.bsky.social @cmcharlesallen.bsky.social

We’re on Amtrak now if that makes it any better. #ClimateGuilt
No one:

Me: I admit it! I flew too much this year!

Bright side: I always like seeing DC listed under 'find your STATE'. We should be a state! Dark side: Insurance companies are refusing to cover homes in DC and everywhere. Who will buy an uninsurable house you can't get a mortgage for? #ClimateCrisis www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I took the metro to a #PostOffice and renewed our passports. Every 15 mins they helped another family worried about MAGA policies get a passport. Plus the new electric mail trucks are cool! Post Offices are a much better use of our collective money than tax cuts for billionaires.

Sharing pics from a walking tour yesterday of the lost Slash Run river through DC with @imagineterrain.bsky.social dropping so much local historic knowledge! He’s offering another tour next Sunday! Nice to meet/see you @markjauslander.bsky.social @wvistheduck.bsky.social @sunildasgupta.bsky.social

I came to see the outcast realize her power and refuse to comply with the narcissistic populist but was totally thrilled by the bicycles and trains. #Wicked
