Today I got a preview of the new Fort Dupont Ice rink. Although it was supposed to open this past summer, we’re looking forward to the community getting to use this new facility soon. The ribbon cutting will take place next Saturday at 11am.

I found this terribly sad. A young woman with her life ahead of her, and she becomes one of the last American victims of the Long War.

Got a push poll asking my thoughts on the race for DC’s delegate to Congress. It was mostly interested in pitting White versus Pinto but added Kinney Zalesne when offering snippets of their backgrounds (listed the other candidates as options but with no additional info).

Omg this meeting is Peak #bikedc oppo
I want to participate in and learn from the community meeting from 6:30 to 8 tonight but I also don’t want to leave my house and I want to be able to cook and eat dinner at a reasonable time.

It’s about protected bike lanes on Kansas Ave, which I’ve been lobbying for for years. #bikedc

Open those laptops and speak up, folks
Today, the EPA released proposed revisions to the definition of “waters of the United States”, which would further erode clean water safeguards & endanger wetlands & streams across the US. “This is a destructive and unfounded attack on clean water protections," said @geostatstacy.bsky.social.

We know that rats have chewed up wiring on cars. Now I know that mice eat the buttons off bike computers.

I can tell Finn the tricolor beagle is feeling better because he has resumed his hobby of rifling through the recycling.
