People on the early metro commute who talk incredibly loud on the phone non-stop barely even taking a breath between sentences. Is there even really someone else on the other end?! Who in their right mind could bare just being barked at like that for so long without even being able to get a single word in?!

Unpopular opinion: I’ve been cycling for over a decade, and while I sympathize for the cyclist, I can also believe that this man is rehabilitated and I don’t know if an additional 11 months of punishment (from rejecting the motion to vacate) does more than the potential positive effects of him seeing goodwill through vacation of the sentence.

a neighboring apt’s concierge told me there’s a high profile warrant out for someone who locked themselves in one of the one501 units. bc they’re resisting arrest, there’s a swat team and bomb squad standing by.

They were set up outside my building at like 4am. No idea what it's for though.

Update: I got an email from my building and apparently there is someone who barricaded themselves in an apartment at the One501. No other info

August bought a 780sf condo in Atlanta. Moved kitchen + full bath + laundry location + knocked down 2 walls + new half bath + new floors + new trim + lifted ceiling some areas. With IKEA kitchen almost 90K and I had a super affordable contractor.

One bathroom in DC recently cost me 16K . I had budgeted 8K. Left original floor.
