Brad Pitt Has Your Secret Shit: Rolling DC

Yes, hope so. I read that Orangeman's proposed immigration rules will keep out future Dominican and Latinx players from everywhere from coming to US no matter than baseball skills (just seen as non-English speaking )

I liked that carryout whiting . No more near H St Ne location after Saturday. Just Suitland and soon elsewhere in PG County

Really hope Janeese wins in Ward 4 tonight

It sounds like she did, by 9 points even.

Brooke Pinto leading in the race for Jack Evans’ seat.

Pinto seems like she has some ethics issues...

So I think 10 years ago some ilxers went to a not open yet U street music hall and now 10 years later it is closing down due to Covid and landlord issues. Discussed a bit over on the Ilm Capital Swamp thread

Kojo retiring is making me really sad

Kojo retiring is making me really sad

Kojo!!

Don’t go, Kojo

lol kojo has always bugged me but he's probably a very good guy

His voice is so calming. I would listen to him read cereal ingredients.

i sat next to him at the hitching post in petworth back in the day and immediately knew who he was when he started to talk

What happened to Joshua Johnson?

Also my sympathy for DCers rn :(. Spouse is there now for work and says it is dismal.

Joshua Johnson quickly moved to MSNBC. Jennifer White is now hosting 1a

You can see @furcafe streetscape photos, pics of Chuck Brown, Sharon Jones , band Laughing Man on the alley wall in Mt Pleasant next to Elle through May 31.

I am still posting dc area music stuff over at Capital Swamp on ILM

Good news: AFI Silver reopening 5/28.
WTF: Cruella and A Quiet Place Part II on the bigger screens?

So I guess Jim from the office dies in part 1?

I hope it's just a case of trying to temporarily fill seats after a tough year and not an indication of what their programming is going to be now.

They do have AFI DOCS coming in June, and when I see the programmers I will ask them about rescheduling The Lincoln Cycle and the early Fox films. But the Regal barely a block away will also have these titles--even allowing for buzz and pent-up demand, are audiences likely to go to AFI to see these?

They also announced a stricter no food/beverage policy than Regal, so I don’t know.

I miss AFI so much

Filmfest DC is virtual june 4 to 13

heard a rumor that the kids are calling adams morgan AdMo

Sadly they might be, and dc government has already been using it on hanging cloth banners and signs for awhile.

And they’ve introduced “The Yard”, presumably in celebration of Jame Gray, as well as SoNYa because NoMa was too broad

Gonna celebrate my 20 year anniversary of living here in august. i fall deeper and deeper in love with this place every year, although i think i'm to the point where the western quadrants are the least interesting. i officially live in PG so NW is kind of a haul, but my old hood in the columbia heights/u street area is pretty awful now. i really like the open air skating rink in anacostia and all the trails. great place to raise kids

Lived there for about 20 years, gone for 3. Glad to have been there, glad to have left.
