@lynannelowry I was on the car with the medical emergency. An elderly woman wasn’t seated yet when the train left the station in Ballston and she fell very hard. I called the train operator and stayed with her until help arrived. She was in bad shape. 😕

finally leaving the Virginia Square @wmata station (without my sanity) after a 15-minute delay w/ zero guidance. a no-passenger train blocked the track I needed, the loudspeaker said electrical issue, but the signs said medical emergency. no staff around to clarify 🙃

Transforming our agrifood systems requires targeted interventions & concerted action to address hidden social, environmental & health costs. I hope #SOFA2024 report serves as a call to action & inspires individual & collective efforts to ensure #SDGs & #4Betters. #TrueCostOfFood
Food and Agriculture Organization@FAO

Our food has hidden environmental, social and health costs. Uncovering the #TrueCostOfFood is the first step to make our agrifood systems more inclusive, resilient and sustainable. But we all have a role to play👉bit.ly/4fjncne #SOFA2024

Peter Goodman from @WorldBank highlights that TCA has the potential to overcome siloed approaches. Bringing departments and Ministries together can be a key challenge in policymaking, but TCA has already initiated cross-departmental collaboration at the World Bank.

“Public procurement is a really powerful way to [to transition to regenerative and agroecological approaches]. Using true cost accounting, we can make that case even more compelling than I think we otherwise would be able to do so.” - @InnovationWoman #COP16Colombia

Howie Rose’s call last night got me thinking about how cool it would be to have a thread with all the great baseball radio calls. So let’s make one. Add below. I’ll start: The inimitable Tom Hamilton roaring “Down goes Anderson!” will never, ever get old.

Ryan Zimmerman turns 40 today, which should make every one of us feel old.

This weekend is the last time the Nationals are wearing the Cherry Blossom City Connects, one of the best jerseys in recent DC sports history. Will be retired after this season. Plan here, as elsewhere, was to cycle them in and out for three years.

Walz on his son Gus getting emotional during his speech: "I'm grateful I got to experience it. I'm so proud of him. I'm proud of him, I'm proud of hope, I'm proud of Gwen ... our politics can be better ... life can be kinda hard."

If my young daughter ever looks at me like Gus Walz just looked at his dad through a stream of tears and proudly shouted "that's my dad," that will be the single happiest moment of my life.
