Reply to Mojo Monday! by AutoModerator
I got to be a good neighbor this weekend--someone a block over from me appeared to have misplaced about 10 bags of their trash in the alley behind my house. Thankfully they left multiple pieces of mail with their address in it, so I was able to return it to their back alley promptly and it wasn't lost after all.

Reply to Building possibly starting eviction process, due to DCHA not responding (& news reporter requests) by LumosDC
Have you also tried reaching out to Robert White, who's the new chair of the Committee on Housing? DCHA has gotten terrible press recently, and the previous committee chair sat around doing zero oversight for years, so he might be anxious to act.

They don’t believe that. At least you think you’re clever though.

Reply to Has WMATA Considered Underground? by Cooking_with_MREs
There were massive battles in the 2000s about whether the Silver line should be above ground or below ground. The Bush Admin wanted the elevated line to reduce costs, and threatened to pull funding otherwise.
NOMA and a lot of the Red Line is built on an existing rail ROW so it was never going to be underground. Same for the ends of some of the other lines. WMATA is certainly not "considering" more underground stations in the sense of moving above ground stations to below ground.

Navy Yard is a slightly longer walk. Depending on what direction you're coming from, I'd just do whatever one doesn't require a transfer.

Once again, you've repeatedly made it clear that you have no issue with police not doing their jobs.
Additionally, the idea that there's no enforcement of anything is another complete lie.

So in other words you think it's completely acceptable when police don't do their jobs.

The number of complete morons who think police should not have to do their jobs is truly astounding.

>While i understand part of the idea is to not overcrowd the streets in the surrounding area, this seems like the apartments and city are forcing residents to pay their outrageous $250+ monthly parking fees.
Sorry but you're not entitled to park your personal vehicle on public space for $50 a year. Sometimes you have to pay market rate when parking is a scarce resource.

Reply to comment by BrightThru2014 in I'm legit scared of people in cars these days. Why does it feel like society is breaking down? by MintyLacroix
So again, no evidence here that increases in traffic deaths are only occurring in Democratic constituencies.
It's also not a "well-established fact" and the two "sources" you provided don't even come close to estabishing that.

Please provide a single piece of evidence to support this.
Jacksonville is run entirely by Republicans, and traffic deaths are up massively:
According to the report, there were 207 fatal car accident in Jacksonville, including 50 pedestrians and 47 motorcycle crash victims in 2021...Compare that to 166 fatal crashes in 2019 and 143 in 2018.
Sorry to let facts get in the way of your narrative.

What kind of place are you looking for? You're going to have trouble finding anything other than 1br or small 2br apartments for under $3k in a neighborhood with what's considered a "good" elementary school.

Sounds like we should shutdown the beltway until WMSC approves a return to service plan ensuring the guardrails are removed.

Reply to parking woes/rant by emniki
Yes that's normal. A lot of new buildings sign agreements prohibiting residents from getting an RPP in order to appease zoning concerns.
Parking is a valuable and finite resource, especially in dense areas like NoMa. It's crazy to me how many people just expect it to be free or cheap.
