this is like drake and kendrick lamar but they're both drake

Tonight's Shoreline city council meeting: shoreline.granicus.com/GeneratedAge... Lots on the consent calendar and some interesting stuff on the core agenda. Read my friend @olivermoffat.bsky.social's article on the topic if you can: local.interurbancanopy.news/p/next-week-...

I *love* this street transformation in front of a school: Place Andrée-Lachapelle.

The new Neil Halloran documentary on Smallpox has completely changed how I see the RFK Jr. version of the world. Neil (softly) argues that realizing that disease isn't the fault of the sick /or/ the fault of the Gods ushered in a new future where we felt the authority to care for each other.

Local DC post for the day, but it's insane how successful the transit-oriented development around NoMA has been. The station is now ~50% busier than it was in 2019, despite overall metro ridership still being down. This year, it's busier than Dupont Circle or Columbia Heights

Not. A. Single. Congressional. District. A cut by any name is still a cut. Hands off Medicaid.

On my way home from city council a driver turned right in front of me without checking for traffic from the left. I avoided hitting her on my bike, but if I was in a car I'd have hit her dead on her driver's idea door and killed her. So that's a tone setter for the rest of my evening.
