it's fun to make jokes but most EICs wouldn't be able to cut it as staffers at their own publication

Editor-in-chief Tom Ley went undercover among the Defector staff as Todd Dipshit, a new junior staffer from Manchester, N.H. The results were epic! defector.com/could-defectors…

If you're against raising the federal minimum wage, hit up our DMs so I can let you know you're an asshole.

Calling yourself "pro-business" doesn't mean you magically understand labor economics better than everyone else. You just think the most vulnerable people in this country deserve to scrape by and never be able to move up. Because you're an asshole.
Thoughts and prayers for the business owners who were unable to exploit labor during a public health crisis - the real victims!

Dusting off this account to share an important message to NW DC: Black Lives Matter. No matter how many NPR totes you own, we ALL need to acknowledge and address the structures that prevent black people from full inclusion and access to opportunity in our society. #DCprotests

With the historic “I Have a Dream” speech delivered in our city and the influential, peaceful impact he’s made in joining our communities, we’re wishing you a Happy Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. Day. May his message continue to spread daily.

The Georgetown Flea Market (really in Burleith, down Wisconsin Avenue at the Hardy Middle School parking lot) is open every Sunday. While winter brings fewer people, there were still more than a dozen vendors in the sunny but cold weather. #GeorgetownFleaMarket #DCfleamarkets

One of our recreation centers was transformed into a wrestling arena yesterday by one of our permit holders. It was a sight to behold. #WhereFunHappens

We’ve had a large response for scheduled pickup and we are working diligently to collect them all. Extra crews are working ALL WEEKEND to collect holiday trees and greenery. More than 6,000 trees have been composted & we are on track to compost more trees than we did in 2019!

Word is that Amazon will move into the closed Giant supermarket in Friendship Heights, off Western and Wisconsin Avenues (by the Clydes up there). Will be a grocery store and hopes to open by the end of this year. Is Amazon Coming to Friendship Heights? dc.urbanturf.com/articles/bl…

Is Amazon Coming to Friendship Heights?

Amazon is the likely replacement for the recently-shuttered Giant grocery store in Friendship Heights, sources tell UrbanTurf.
