So...any Christmas Party playlist in DC that doesn't include Chuck Brown's The Spirit of Christmas album is incomplete.

open.spotify.com/album/3RFINd...

Not an opinion, just facts ;-)

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!

Whoa...

Mayor Bowser not seeking re-election.

This should be interesting.

Loving Day - Wikipedia

Happy Loving Day!!

Loving v. Virginia struck down all anti-miscegenation laws remaining in sixteen U.S. states in 1967, just about FOUR YEARS before my Black dad and Filipino inay started dating.

An RFK stadium deal aims to drive rapid redevelopment. Will it pay off for the District? Questions remain about Mayor Muriel Bowser’s plan to bring the Commanders back to D.C., including how much say the city will have in the massive redevelopment project around the stadium.

New: The RFK stadium deal is being sold as a huge boon for the area's swift, certain redevelopment. But will it really be the "anchor" Bowser et al have promised?

Some see the deal as a big giveaway of valuable land that's fundamentally unnecessary for RFK's transformation:

Quite a full weekend and loving it!!

Kicked off with DC Bike Party, then Charlotte de Witte at Echostage.

Saturday caught up with Eurovision Song Contest and was stoked to see the winner was a mixed Austrian Filipino singer, JJ.

And now about to see another show as part of my Helen Hayes judge.

2) dropping my phone while doing so and it landing so perfectly flat on its screen as to render the "case" useless, not just shattering in with multiple spiderwebs across it but then it just wouldn't turn on (the screen) except for an occasional, pixelated horizontal line

Winding down from an eventful evening that included:

1) losing my parking garage ticket and not be able to get my vehicle out

DC neighborhood groups fighting to preserve home rule Multiple groups are hosting meetings Monday to discuss the fight for self-governance after the President said he wanted to put D.C. back under federal control.

"On Monday, while DC Mayor Muriel Bowser was at a budget town hall, attendees wondered how a federal takeover could impact seniors. Bowser reassured them that this decision is not up to Trump."
