Holy shit. I’m crying.
If you read just one thing today, read this excerpt from my @parisreview interview with #RayBradbury. Today is Bradbury’s birthday and this story has one of the best endings EVER. #inspiration

Long shot: Claire in Colonial Village, I found something that you might want back. I’ve put it on the telephone pole at Queens’ Lane and Rhodes. Hope you find it. #arlington #arlva

90% of the "European food fixed me" or "European food made me loose 10lbs" posts is literally just people from car dependent suburbs enjoying walkable cities and not noticing

A broadcaster mistook Guardians pitcher Ben Lively for Blake Lively, and Blake Lively actually responded 😂 "Well. Cat's outta the bag. I'm a highly professional baseball player on the side."

Looks like my anxieties are not unfounded washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/…
Replying to @ouij @Nytalite @wmata
Also, given that @wmata has had problems on the 7000s with things as basic as “making sure the wheels are the right distance apart,” I still get pretty uneasy if I hear something creak on a 7000 series car.

This person should be named and shamed. Cheating on a pop quiz YOU SIGNED UP FOR that gets you NOTHING is the surest sign that you are an absolute loser.

It’s Impunity Week here in DC. This scofflaw is illegally parked in front of GW Hospital’s ER. Given that he’s from Dayton, OH there is no reasonable emergency justification here

Now that RFK is no more, shouldn’t we just rename the station “Armory?” @wmataGM @wmata @Metrorailinfo

One of the things that makes European public transport better than American public transport is that suit-wearing Important People, often including powerful bureaucrats and elected officials, use it and rely on it.
Very Few things scream "I don't live in a real city" more than being impressed by a guy in a suit taking the bus

In America public transport is a thing that can be cut because the only people seen to use it tend to be powerless.
