That is my underlying assumption yep

An assumption, but the fences are only up around the fountains. Our dear leader would never drink water from a public bubbler. It's about beauty from a distance, not accessibility, right?

That said, plenty of very competent people are carrying out the order from above so maybe

Too bad he's only fixing the fountains with water and not the water fountains. So many thirsty park goers and so few functional bubblers

Oh is this finished? I gotta get out there. I've gotten so used to avoiding that whole zone for so long.

Always re-defining what's possible

People who understand/design political polls, what is this question for? Is this another version of quotations? Are you a human?"

thanks for looking into it. South side seems fine. North side was dark tonight at 7:15pm and another night this week

@nomabid.bsky.social fyi, the lights in the M Street Northeast underpass are not working on one side. There's something wrong with the rain installation. Very dark

I love that CaBi is leading the charge Americans understanding the metric system!

40 meters is.~420 feet, right?

Federal meddling on 15th Street ยซ Washington Area Bicyclist Association

Weโ€™ve heard now from several reliable sources that federal agencies may remove a substantial chunk of the 15th St NW protected bike lanes near the National Mall in February, possibly as early as next week.

There's plenty of clever, denigrating ways to insult this stale, fascist shitbag without being homophobic, thank you

@bikeshare.bsky.social one of your runaway classic bikes (W22748) is often parked undocked, but secured with a cable lock) at the east side of College Park Metro station. Here at 5:20pm today

Imagine how quiet American cities could be if cars were designed and regulated for situational awareness rather than isolation.

Instead car makers and emergency vehicles are fighting an ever escalating war of better soundproofing and louder sirens. And us people out on the streets lose.

@metrorailinfo.bsky.social there are no lights on at the upper floor of Fort Totten and there's not a staff member with a light to be seen. It's pitch black up here and trains are still running through as normal,

I had no idea lighting was part of the plan. I sure hope someone is thinking critically about shades so the lights aren't just shining right into your eyes like on the Met Branch Trail at the NoMa Metro

If it's just to make up the schedule, that's pretty frustrating

@metrorailinfo.bsky.social what's going on at College Park to require bypassing in the greenbelt direction? Trains are already running at 16 minutes, so that's pretty frustrating
