A hair over an inch in #Tenleytown. It’s not nothing. Might even have to mow the lawn again this year. @capitalweather.bsky.social

Once again, I’m giving up biking on Conn. Ave., the fastest, most direct and level route b/t my house and work, because a driver, once again, passed me so close at 30+MPH I could touch their car, in the lane I lawfully occupied. This after the driving right behind me, gunning the engine + honking.

Found another hilarious sign, also on Reno Rd. NW.

After reneging on Conn. Ave. Bike lanes, ripping out bike lanes on Ariz. Ave. and failing to enforce traffic laws, it’s good to see that @mayorbowser.bsky.social and @ddotdc.bsky.social have a sense of humor.

Pro tip: never buy faux leather. It’s garbage the day it’s made.

“Bike commute”

This as I arrived at home from the commute from work, and not a drop on me. Sometimes you get lucky.

The District Dept. of Transportation plans to eliminate Arizona Ave. NW protected bike lanes. Use this action to tell DDOT you object: waba.org/action-page/... . The city should not compromise safety because a few individuals don’t like the look of flex posts.

One of my daily reminders of how our #carbrain world thinks about pedestrians.

Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event

Thanks for explaining what the source of the smoke is. I went for a walk around 6:30 and the smoke was noticeable.

Tons of students in this area along with folks going to the metro, library and stores. Very dangerous situation. Can @dcpolicedept.bsky.social direct traffic?

How is it that the lights at Wisconsin Ave and Albemarle St NW has been out for at least 24 hours? @ddotdc.bsky.social @cmfrumin.bsky.social
