The new on-demand bike lockers at DCA are open. They are located off the MVT inside Garage 2 near the CaBi station and use the Bikeep app for access. Inside each locker, there’s a power outlet with a timer for charging e-bikes.

Do not fret I have been reliably told it is okay to give the Israelis these bombs that are used to kill children because if we didn't then someone else might give them bombs to kill children with and then we wouldn't have the leverage and influence that we refuse to use

This is going to continue happening as everything gets hotter. Seattle had problems similar to this during the 2021 heat dome. Climate change is an *infrastructure problem* along with all the other types of problems.

I think Biden should step down and Harris should take over and we should all vote for her to be president mainly because -- and this is extremely important -- then her husband will be FGOTUS, or "fuh-goat-us," which sounds like something Paulie would say on The Sopranos.

My Solomonic view is that NYT—perhaps the president’s primary persecutor recently—showed its whole ass with this swiss-cheese Parkinson’s specialist story. It’s blatantly copied from right-wing charlatans, unvetted. And a nimbler White House and campaign would be making it pay dearly for that.

New York has a long history of refusing to borrow ideas about how cities work from other places and then acting like it invented an idea when it finally does, but “put trash in bins instead of piling bags on sidewalks” takes the cake.

yes, we boiled the planet, but it was worth it to make a machine that, instead of adding two plus two, takes the statistical average of every answer to questions containing "what" "is" "two" and "plus" from a database of illegal cell phone transcripts and returns a fake nude pic of a high schooler

Not really ready to fully wade into any of the recent political discourse on here but for heaven’s sake, get H*nt*r out of the inner circle. You can love and support your (fail)son but he does not need to be a visible senior advisor, especially on the campaign.

The thing that's obvious to everyone and that nobody can actually write in the press is that the American (and yes, I'm sure elsewhere too) right wing is led by bad people and the object is to make more people extremely bad in basically every respect. It's anti-society
