Incredible.
Thev sound in this video is fascinating. You can hear what I think is background rain and pumice fall. But the roaring... Is that from the eruption or from the PDC? In contrast to that PDC video from the Kraffts where the the current is silent.

This is a fascinating thread
Zohran picked 「卓蘭」("excellent orchid") for his first name and「夸梅」("brilliant plum") for his middle name.
The orchid and the plum are among "The Four Noble Ones" in traditional Chinese art, the former symbolizing an indifference to fame and fortune, the latter an indomitable, incorruptible spirit.

ALX Skeets: DC resident Geoff is clearly ignoring our own plans to annex Shirlington, weigh in here.
Heading to western Alexandria (Van Dorn Station) in the afternoon. One of the last stations in the system I've never used.
Just curious—when Alexandria and Arlington are rightfully brought back into the fold as part of DC, does western Alexandria convey, or does it revert back to Fairfax County?

That's right.
NEWS: The Trump admin's decision to suspend SNAP benefits due to the shutdown has been blocked. In two cases, both judges found the government action is likely illegal. Although a judge in Mass gave the admin until Monday to reverse course, a judge in Rhode Island issued a TRO from the bench today.
BREAKING: Federal judge rules that the Trump administration likely illegally suspended SNAP benefits, ruling that at least reduced distribution is required to go forward under law using the $6 billion reserve fund.
Judge gives the Trump admin until Monday to respond as to whether it will act.

Do not watch the attached video. But DO click through to an excellent thread on unions, the history of bandanas, solidarity in diversity, menswear/fashion history, and a really good reminder that some of the biggest worker uprisings and workplace gains in protections were at the hands of unions. 💪
JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.
Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

In cleaning out photos from Today in History I was struck by how many of these things are still relevant 5 years later, except the Olympics and the Murder Hornets.

Ten years ago I married @portcityposter.bsky.social, forcing our friends and family to walk from the Athenaeum to Columbia Firehouse in a hurricane. I was too busy talking to everyone at the reception so he danced with his brother. A pretty good Alexandria party.
