Brad Pitt Has Your Secret Shit: Rolling DC

Not serious about wanting a gun. Serious about being broke, bored, and bothered. Entertain me please?

hi j. lu

Hi, how have you been?

this election season needs more I DIED

yeah I'd be posting more except that I have tried putting Palin's head on Doctor Casino's other photos and it just doesn't work as well.

case in point

hello, I am in Oslo airport, I shall be here for some time it seems.

holy shit i love you i died

The atomium is not used enough for hilarious photoshops, god work.

Also that is the closest she ever got to foreign parts, I think

WOW.

I have missed the DC thread, frankly. Though not so much the Saturday morning too-many-beers-at-Big-Hunt hangovers.

I miss the photoshopping.

I love everyone.

I'm gonna edit this thread title tomorrow so it has to do with that new coen flick. nobody panic.

when is beers o clock?

There. Go Skins.

last night you could follow the debate walking down 18th, even over the downpour. maybe not such a shocker but slightly odd nonetheless, in person.

i had to be at work during the debate. and today from 11-7:30. all hands on deck until election day!

i will make some photoshops when i am back in the office.

did this the other day

Wait was that really insane football video from way back (sandbox, maybe?)? Someone flying through the air in a ridiculous manner. I can't remember any other details, sorry. But it was awesome A++ would watch again if someone knows what the hell I am talking about.

OH WAIT IT'S THAT GUY UP THERE INNIT?

YEAH HE DID THAT AGAIN! this video is from last week!!

FLYING DAWKINS

"She's like one of us, just a normal, hardworking person, not someone from D.C. " said Ivan Capps, a Bureau of Land Management records manager who attended a Palin rally in Grand Junction, Colo.

fuck youuuuuuuu

the special prize we get for being #1 Obama supporters is that he's gonna come live here!

not just him: On a chain-link fence erected by inaugural construction crews [near the White House], someone hung the sign: "Welcome Home Malia and Sasha!"

from the Post article on last night's partying. U Street was just, wow

http://img26.picoodle.com/img/img26/3/11/5/f_14um_e357205.jpg

that was my view around 11:30 last night, insane

They call it the White House, but that's a (increasingly) temporary condition.

To each his reach, and if I can't cop, it ain't mine to hang.

hey guys we have to get this thread going again now that DC is the new BEST PLACE IN THE WORLD!

I SO want to move back.

Damnit.

I am officially retired from breakdancing in the street. Ow.

hey Slate: fuck youuuuuuuu for reprinting a 15-year old column about "life in DC" and saying "it's still remarkable how little of the city's character has changed."

orange line extending to NY? rendering of new 2nd Ave subway entrance.

oh man that would be the best i would buy so many records and work pays the smartrip

that's the part of the upper east side with all the fresh-out-of-college banker types and shitty bars

So, I'm coming to join your cool place-to-be city some time around February. Pretty jammy timing. I've visited before but only for 2-3 days. I think I'll be living somewhere near Dupont Circle/19th, if I take over the apartment of the last incumbent in the job...

cool

our football team is awesome

I get to learn the football rules!
Is that a real TV show embedded in that vid somewhere?

nah.. DC go go band Mambo Sauce had this song out for a while and finally made a video for it, so.. that's what they did. chuck brown shows up at the end to tell the police to let them go, I guess is the gist of it

Even your cheerleaders go on tour!

I'm still trying to get my head around 15K ppl in DC voting for McCain? TOO MANY I DEMAND RECOUNT.

TOMBOT can you embed the mambo sauce vid at the top of the thread? tks.

I'm still trying to get my head around 15K ppl in DC voting for McCain?

I read about the 77 vote last night and all but threw a tantrum at dinner. stop making me curse in front of my kid, DC government

No RFK and also no new site in Maryland park that Md governor Hogan wants that is nowhere near Metro

Capital Swamp: The DC Resource Thread

#dontMuteDC protests re go-go from speakers at Metro PCS phone and go-go cd store shut down due to a lawsuit threat from a resident of 2015 built luxury building the Shay.

Go-go’s been cranking there since 95.

Been a Baltimore Orioles fan since I was a kid, but rooting for Nationals now in World Series

Nats ...World Series Champs

Went down to stadium after for celebration. Joyful but not out of hand

Gonna rush from work to the parade this Saturday.

I just realized we’re supposed to have brunch in Chinatown Saturday. Have I doomed my family and friends?

Maybe not, if you're taking the Red Line or at least keeping north of Pennsylvania Avenue? My sister wants to go to Jaleo Saturday, and the parade was my first thought.

so that's why Orange Shithead will be in NYC

Sadly Nats are scheduled to go to White House Monday. Ugh

Parade route—Constitution Avenue NW at 15th Street NW, proceed east along Constitution Avenue NW, and end on Pennsylvania Avenue NW at 3rd Street NW

Sean Doolittle aint going to the WH

hoping at least ten more join him

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 )

AFI Silver has just announced that Friday's screening of The Oyster Princess is going to be free. Anyone else interested in going?

gonna be out of town

Speaking of AFI, got tix to the European Union Festival screenings of A Hidden Life and Portrait of a Lady on Fire.

Did u like those movies?

Been just posting over on ILM

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.

Rosslyn Jazz Festival has some interesting stuff: https://www.rosslynva.org/do/rosslyn-jazz-fest-2024

Spoke with a number of federal government employees at the Slumberland records anniversary show at Comet last night and they are all scared and down. Neighbor who has a fed government job and young kids is scared and down too. Only someone with Veterans seems to have any slightly optimistic hope

Republicans writing a bill to end Home Rule and calling it " “Bringing Oversight to Washington and Safety to Every Resident (BOWSER) Act” is so petty I'd respect it if the whole notion wasn't so egregious.

Surprised they haven’t called her a “DEI Mayor” or something like that.
