👋🏻 @nbcwashington.com some easy investigating would uncover that this vehicle has MANY unpaid violations, including obstructing a fire lane *in the location of this crash.* This is sloppy journalism and unacceptable victim blaming of another child in an unrelated tragedy. bsky.app/profile/brya...

That also looks to be near the exact location of the crash with the child!

Additionally, if DC had impounded this car when they caught it obstructing a fire lane on June 9th, this driver may not have had the means to injure a child.

I saw that. Kind of crazy that they spent more words on blaming a child in a separate crash than mentioning anything about the driver's likely pattern of reckless driving in the crash they are supposed to be reporting on!

It’s also is the car the mpd is looking for for critically injuring a 5 year old.

Seems like it should be a minimum for any story about a driver hurting someone that the writer look up and share if there are unpaid tickets associated with the vehicle. A boy is seriously injured because this vehicle and its driver shouldn’t be on the road. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/5...

I scheduled my trip out west too early this year. I returned just in time for the full heat dome of humidity.

Name names. I didn't know humidity worship was a thing!

Have fun! Post your sandwich review.

The patuxent bridge route worked fairly well last spring for me if you feel like changing it up

Not a sandwich but I very much enjoyed my faidley’s crab cake in Lexington market post ride

STOLEN BIKE ALERT. The library's xtracycle swoop was stolen at 2am this morning and moved to an apartment complex right by the zoo. Need a volunteer to check the courtyard of the apartment complex, it appears to be still there. Anybody out that way?? #bikedc #help

I just saw a parent of a baby say most "anti-car" people are non-parents, citing pediatrician appointments, and oh that is just so myopic (and relatable - I remember!). But sir. You have been at this for less than a year. Pleeease talk to some parents of kids 5 and older 🙃

👇 the implication that Asian Americans cannot actually represent the people who voted for them is insidious. Nobody should treat this so-called leadership council as anything other than a social club for irrelevant bigots.

CW-bigotry. Last night, the Ward 5 Leadership Council (which includes of ex-elected reps from Ward 5) sent an email to a number of people (including myself) full of ramblings and allegations about the elections, Free DC, and the Free DC Slate. They also made some incredibly bigoted remarks.

Dangerous air quality + thunderstorm = Ride cancelled tomorrow.
