I assume that ANC 5E now recognizes that transportation needs extend beyond commission borders, which is why they are opining on parking that exists solely within ANC 5F. I'm looking forward to a mea culpa on their resolution opposing our request for bike lanes on Q & R Street.
agenda for tonight's #ANC5E virtual meeting www.anc5edc.org
there are four resolutions on the agenda -- the document links are clickable anc5edc.org/docs/2026/AN...
Mundo Verde traffic safety
Langston Slater project
Lincoln Rd NE bike lanes
1st & R St NW raised crosswalks

Dear DC lazyweb: My partner is a dance instructor and is looking for studio space with mirrors she can rent for classes. Any suggestions?

Along the way I submitted a 311 request for an intersection with a pedestrian crosswalk signal that drivers do not yield for (26-00102122).

Neighborhood trash missed for 3 weeks. Tried multiple escalation channels (including DPW and Mayor's office) but none work. I don't like it but feels like social media is the only real avenue to get help. Introducing the newest "Mayor Muriel Bowser Presents" @mayorbowser.dc.gov

#MBTpubroll is joining forces once again with #TranspoBINGO tomorrow to cap off the week! In light of icy conditions, we're going to start at 5:30pm at Solace in Navy Yard and then have a nice and easy walk, bike, or metro across the Anacostia to the finale social at Atlas in the Bridge District 🚲🚇🍻
Mark your calendars folks, #MBTpubroll is doing TWO pub rolls for #TranspoBINGO this year! We'll end up at Metrobar on Feb 5th, and at Atlas Brew Works in the Bridge District on Feb 12th, exact routes TBD. This is a great way to get several squares on your board. Come one, come all, come pub roll🚲🍻!
We’ve sent the 2026 #TranspoBINGO boards to print! This year’s board is full of fun and whimsy. What better way to enjoy beautiful DC than through play? Join pre-TranspoBINGO events for an advance board or RSVP to get it in your inbox when it goes live.

They must have been looking for the MBT.
Somehow a car wound up on the Metro tracks in the middle of I-66 just west of the Dunn Loring station. Orange Line trains are not operating between West Falls Church & Vienna. Metro says they’ll let us know when they have more information on how in the world this happened. #wmata

Ticked off another #TranspoBINGO square by joining the Upskilling Labs meetup to see @echo4dc.bsky.social demo RideFlow DC. She and her team are crowd sourcing a comfort score for every bike lane in the region.

Gambling should be like tobacco use: legal, heavily regulated, hard to access, with zero advertising and a ton of social stigma.

Caught a D32 to the @930club.bsky.social for a concert tonight. Along the way I spotted a D34 and C51. D = Downtown, C = Crosstown. While I appreciate the clearer naming, unfortunately the Better Bus redesign has been a net negative for me and other Edgewood neighbors. #TranspoBINGO

A fun part of being an elected official playing #TranspoBINGO is that I can tick squares by doing my job. This week I signed ANC 5F's official letter responding to @ddotdc.bsky.social's Strategic Bike Plan, re-emphasizing our desire for protected bike lanes spanning the District on Q or R Street.

I've been playing D&D since high school. I rolled a d6 on my character sheet to walk, Metro, CaBi, walk, and eCabi home (with a quick drop-in at LostGen to slake my thirst and pick up my Qualia order). I wish there was a convenient @bikeshare.bsky.social station for that brewery! #TranspoBINGO
