Reply to comment by LilInterweb in Opinion | D.C. is turning its beautiful streets into bar-code lookalikes by DCmetrosexual1
And the “bar-code lookalikes” comparison is so weirdly strained… just say you think the plastic posts are unsightly. We get it.

Reply to comment by thedude0117 in DC man sentenced for shooting death of father while walking with children by Ninjroid
This is the sort of sentence I expect for some lesser degree of murder or manslaughter. This was an assassination.

You will no longer be a Maryland resident. You need to convert your Driver’s License and tags from MD to DC. The DC DMV is where you do this.

Both can be true dude … crime can be trending down over 40 years and up over 10. That can still be cause for concern. Nobody wants to go back to the early 00s or 90s.

The other guy was attributing everything (or most) of the increase in crime to Covid … that’s who I was responding to. When did I say I was ignoring other factors? I’m just saying I don’t believe Covid is a significant factor.

Crime was already on the upswing in DC before the pandemic. I’m sure it’s a contributing factor concerning the increase in some types of crime, but to attribute everything to Covid is convenient and naive. I’m not ignoring it … I’m just not buying it as an explanation.

Nobody is forcing you to read the articles. To me, it’s just information to consider and absorb. Ignoring it won’t make the problem go away, but you can if you choose.

This is a bad take. Regardless of the cause (and I don’t buy “Covid” as a cause for everything), people can still be upset and worried that crime is up and want it to be lower.

Reply to How Crowded will the Smithsonian Museums be between Christmas and New Years? Also, the week after? by TicoDreams
The timed tickets just keep the crowd inside at a certain size, but it will be full in my experience.
The others won’t be peak crowded, but will be more crowded than they would be on a Wednesday in February, for example.

Definitely Streets as others have mentioned. Rice Market on 14th may also have them.

That’s fair. In the old days the metro operators used to announce “there is an empty train just two minutes behind this one,” but I largely ignored that because I wanted to get home.

It’s nice, but what am I supposed to do with the info? I’ll see how full the train is when it rolls into the station.
