@krystalball New Strong Bad emails?

Large crowd gathered to protest the removal of the 15th street protected bike lane.

I have a new story with @rfelliott on how @Meta and other technology companies, seeking power for data centers, are building their own onsite natural gas power plants. These buildouts have transformed places like New Albany, Ohio. Gift link at the end of this thread...

@SockDem_ @ArlingtonVA Do you have a link for the costs/budget for this? I'm trying to see how this is calculated. Thanks!

@ArlingtonVA For 57 million the entire thing should be covered what the actual fuck are you people doing?

Take a peek at the Crystal City to Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (CC2DCA) Multimodal concept design!

Good overview here.

UPDATE on how the electricity shortage in Iraq’s Kurdistan Region is affecting water levels for some homes across Duhok. War is more than missiles and drones. On the ground, it can show up in quieter ways. In things like empty water tanks.

@JFreshHockey Ah makes sense, tyty

@jafarrell17 an example would be losing 1-goal games but winning by 2-3 frequently

Weird season for the Caps. 5th in 5v5 goal share, 10th in xGoal share. They have the second-best goalie in the league. 12th in goal differential, 21st in standings points. Brutal on the powerplay. Special teams and sequencing are cooking them. hockeystats.com/cards/team-car…

DISPATCH from Iraq's Kurdistan Region — Even when air defenses work, the danger doesn’t just disappear. Debris falls fast, it can cover a wide area and it can do heavy damage.

I tried to go into SkillUp's new Marathon video with an open mind, but HOLY SHIT. I'm sat here wondering why the hell he bothered making this video to begin? Contradicts himself. Ignores large elements of the game and mechanics and calls it "lacking", omg bruh

Going back to my fighting with SkillUp about The Division days to say that there's just a lot factually wrong in here (bosses, events, contracts), plus the extremely funny claim that ARC Raiders has better quests youtube.com/watch?v=4HlXNH…

Many loud blasts coming from the Erbil International Airport. Streets in Ankawa clearing of people. Walked into a home of people standing close together and crying. People getting in cars and driving away from the smoke.

Excited for DC to be in an old fashioned newspaper war between *checks notes* The New York Times and the Baltimore Banner

@AaronBlake If you follow hockey, it's Hellebuyck over Hughes. That performance was legendary.

This is tough to rank, but here's where I'm at. The heroes of the 2026 Olympics: 1. Alysa Liu 2. Jack Hughes 3. Megan Keller 4. Jordan Stolz 5. Connor Hellebuyck 6. Mikaela Shiffrin 7. Breezy Johnson 8. Elana Meyers Taylor 9. Ben Ogden 10. Jessie Diggins

New Washington Post, new approach to news. Today: News reruns! On the Metro front, this excellent piece about the theft of a $24,000 wine bottle—a story that originally appeared on November 26 of last year. So nice, they ran it twice. washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2025/…

This is despicable. After attempting to lay off almost 80 of our members illegally, The Post's CTO Vineet Khosla has tried to co-opt the #SaveThePost hashtag used by Tech Guild and @postguild members, community members, readers, & supporters to push back against these cuts.

Well, I was laid off at The Washington Post today. It's been an honor to work with some of the best journalists in the business. I'm hoping to continue reporting, producing videos and finding long-forgotten archival footage. If you have any openings, reach out.

@DylanByers Didn’t know Jeff was functionally illiterate (are positioned is an ignorant subject-verb-agreement error for is positioned, as nouns preceded by along with are not subjects).
