Last night I joined many volunteers across DC to conduct the annual Point in Time Count to help estimate how many people are currently unhoused in the city
I want to share some observations from our few hours of work

We can only imagine Michael P. from Georgia Petworth has never needed to walk anywhere for any reason, and therefore he is a marvel and a paragon and should be studied and researched -- and probed repeatedly.

Brutal tweet from DCFEMS, but could be true. But we just have to know: How many of you still have holiday trees and greenery up in your house? (Poll in next tweet)

Get rid of that dry tree before it catches fire and gets rid of you. #DCsBravest twitter.com/dcdpw/status/1…

In all fairness, KidsPost and its liberal inclinations (respect people! learn about things! love animals) was kind of a liability for the WaPo editorial board

But they got rid of the KidsPost and Sunday magazine?

Ugh LEAF COLLECTION

A reader sends in photos from the 800 block of 3rd Street SE, which is apparently not slated for lead collection by (see map). But we wonder why— clearly the leaf muck is clogging the sidewalks and is a slipping hazard at the very least.

Love how the last line from this clearly rude and unhinged man is, “I don’t do crazy, sorry.”

All kidding aside, isn’t this a bit weird? The identity of the person who shot and killed Karon Blake is known but has not been released. So what’s the reward for?
Quote Tweet
We think @MayorBowser might have information on the killer. Where can we pick up our $25k reward, @DCPoliceDept?

In 2023, DC will review address-based student assignments for DCPS (also known as boundary assignments). Our new report examines where students are more likely to attend by-right schools, which schools are most representative, & facility utilization. dcpolicycenter.org/publications/s

Next thing you know, someone will walk in and order paint thinner and soda.

Thinking of the guy who ordered (in a completely serious manner) an Everclear and soda last week and was surprised that, that was not a thing? At least we hope.

We will preach the gospel of the D6 far and wide. It’s a huge slice of DC brought together within the toasty confines of a bus.
Quote Tweet
With the rain & rush hour, Uber pegged a ride home at almost $40. Chose a 5 minute walk to the D6 for a $2 ride instead. Great ride @wmata!

One year ago, @potus Biden visited our store & supported a #womanownedbusiness & #asiansmallbusinessowner. One item he bought was our now famous the @VP Harris mug. To celebrate, they are 25% off through Sunday. You can also enter to win a free mug by sharing this tweet!
Still looking for your votes and answers. Thanks!

It won’t, unfortunately! Our Chief Meteorologist has been saying on the news this week that we’ll only get rain in DC. I was hoping to see some snow too!! Womp womp. 🙁
