The DC ACLU is suing on behalf of a man who was arrested by a National Guardsman and MPD officers for playing the Imperial March (from Star Wars) as an act of protest. www.acludc.org/app/uploads/...

Ohio National Guard member Sgt. Devon Beck was not amused by this satire. On
September 11, 2025, Mr. O’Hara saw Sgt. Beck, along with several other Guard members, walking
in uniform in the Logan Circle neighborhood, near the intersection of 14th and R Streets NW. Mr.
O’Hara calmly walked behind the Guard members, began playing The Imperial March aloud on
his phone, and started recording. In less than two minutes, Sgt. Beck turned around and threatened
to call D.C. police officers to “handle” Mr. O’Hara if he persisted. Mr. O’Hara continued recording
and playing the music. Sgt. Beck contacted the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD). Defendant
MPD Officers Brown, Campbell, Reyes-Benigno, and Lopez Martinez came to the scene and, in
essence, did what Sgt. Beck had threatened, putting Mr. O’Hara in handcuffs and preventing him
from continuing his peaceful protest.

Unless I am speaking I wear dressy jeans, a nice knit top, a blazer, and running shoes. Might be conference-dependent as some places are more formal than others

What? The guy who cosplayed as a semiprofessional tennis player and got his entire ass handed to him publicly at the International Tennis Hall of Fame Open? You don't say

The only thing that anyone ever needs to know about Bill Ackman is that he once joined a group of avid long distance bikers from NYC to Montauk and back without training or preparation, arrogant in his ability to "lead the pack" and ended up screaming in agony

#TextsWithMyDaughter (and Long Ultra-Suffering Husband)

A text exchange which starts off with a picture of a glass of champagne on an airplane over the words "don't mind if I do.". Daughter responds, "Diva" and Long Ultra-Suffering Husband chimes in, "What [daughter] said." I responded with a pic of Queen Bey snapping her fingers. Haters gonna hate

In the airport lounge waiting for a flight. Tennis Channel on the bar TV. Caspar's kit reminds me of the prison uniforms on Narkina 5 and it's been bugging me all season
