Mr. Fox 🇺🇸🏳️‍🌈

@AnthonyCastrio A fountain’s a little too jubilant for being outside Arlington Cemetery, no? It does need to be some sort of war memorial.

If not a gigantic arch, maybe a huge fountain.

You know what, the proposed location really is begging for a gigantic arch.

@tylerjhutchison @jaymart222 Maintenance cost wasn’t $0 for 20 years. It’s a shitty apartment that needs a renovation but just keeping shitty old stuff working isn’t free either.

@jaymart222 The operating cost is "$1,380" You have to pay taxes on it no matter what. Tenant pays for utilities. Clearly the maintenance cost for this apartment was $0 for the past 20 years. What does that $1,380 actually pay for?

Vacancy Control. Tenant died in February 2025; it took a year in housing court to gain possession. The renter occupied the unit for 46 years. He owed $19,957.41 on a rent of $1,234.87 at the time of death. Operating cost is $1,380, so it “makes” -$146 every month before renovation costs. The rent cannot be changed on vacsncy and tbe Rent Guidlines Board does not keep up with cost. There is no mechanism to cover the costs of the full gut renovation needed for the next renter, nor will a bank extend a loan to do the work to cover the costs with a rent that can never pay it back. As a result, the unit will stay empty. This is your city on vacancy control.

@jimmyg12949 @EndWokeness Well, children should be raised by two people who can punctuate correctly. Going to be hard knock life for your kids, Jeff and/or Jimmy.

@FoxCapHill @EndWokeness You use “” way too much

𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝗮𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝘆 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗲: Straight couples: 52.5% boys Lesbian couples: 40% boys Gay couples: 81.8% boys Coincidence?

@jimmyg12949 @EndWokeness Or by… no one. Like, the opposite of “adopted by a mother and father” is actually “foster system.” You know what, just go watch “Annie.”

@FoxCapHill @EndWokeness And they can be adopted by a man and woman (father and mother).

@jimmyg12949 @EndWokeness These are *adopted* children. They definitionally have been abandoned by their mother and father.

@EndWokeness That’s sick. Babies need a mother and father

@EndWokeness To be clear, this is mostly because gay men are misogynists, not anything sinister.

@kevsaucebro The plurality black jurisdiction that has only ever elected black mayors. The jurisdiction, so we’re clear, you consider to be one massive Klan rally from your vantage point atop a Barry’s Clarendon treadmill.

@FoxCapHill Which jurisdiction has curfews and is sending cops after groups of Black kids

a woman with a law degree wants everyone to know she thinks it’s unfair to describe the curfew in DC as targeted against children of color

@kevsaucebro DC isn’t a racist society run by white people for white people. You must have us confused with Arlington, the white county run by white peole where you proactively chose to live as a white person.

@FoxCapHill I’m suggesting that viral videos of a few Black kids fighting is only a predicate for widespread police curfews in a racist society run by white people for white people

@kevsaucebro Are you suggesting Bowser woke up one day and decided to implement a curfew, or did you see the viral videos of fighting? Just trying to figure out how much DC news reached you over at the Ted’s Montana Grill in Ballston.

@FoxCapHill How many violent or criminal offenders have the cops identified from any of these gatherings? Show your work

@kevsaucebro And you see these hundreds of peaceable black teenagers with your binoculars, I assume?

@FoxCapHill Yes it’s racist to describe a group of dozens or hundreds of peaceable Black teenagers as violent due to the actions of 3-4 people

@kevsaucebro “It’s so racist they don’t let violent groups of black teenagers congregate,” he says surrounded exclusively by upper-middle-class white people at Big Tony’s in Clarendon. 🙄

@FoxCapHill And I’ve been complaining about it for a long time, welcome to the club

@DirteeeMartini @JacoMajor Just a pleasant stroll down a typical city street.

@JacoMajor le corbusier was working under the assumption that the concrete would be white! the cité radieuse for example is still white and has bright colours in every window and looks pretty great imo

it's pretty funny that the best brutalist building ever is never an example of the style. why? the concrete is white. and normal people actually like it. turns out the whole nasty grey concrete just sucks. who could've guessed!

@rgbinOmaha @UrbanCourtyard To be clear, “meters” nuked any argument you were trying to make to the people you’re trying to make it to.

@UrbanCourtyard It’s 250m from a metro station across a very walkable bridge. What do you mean “only accessible by car”?

the most American thing about this is placing it in a traffic circle, far away from any neighborhood, only accessible by car

@JanCBS @MZHemingway For 2, you’re missing the point: it’s not about *whether* he will be replaced. He *will* be replaced someday. It’s about whether his successor upholds his ideological legacy or doesn’t. Ensuring the former is far more important than another 5-10 years of decisions.

I think what you’re missing is 1) RBG had pancreatic cancer and she was 87 years old. Alito is in good health and just turned 76 this month 2) More importantly, there is no Justice on the Court who can do what Alito does with the influence he wields. You can’t just replace him with someone else

@F1sh98 @SpencerSays @WashProbs It looks good in white because it’s a rendering. Raw stone always looks better than painted stone in person.

@SpencerSays @WashProbs I really want to hate this but I can’t. It looks good white. It really doesn’t look bad. Maybe keep the foundation unpainted like in option 2 but I just CANT bring myself to like the grey. Never have.

The White House has submitted plans to the National Capital Planning Commission to paint the Eisenhower Executive Office Building white. The renderings will be reviewed and discussed at the next NCPC meeting in May. wusa9.com/article/news/p…

@aiedge_ What does “learning AI” mean? Is there anything more to prompting than a) knowing what to ask for and b) knowing how to adjudicate the output? Isn’t that just learning your job, not learning AI?

Anthropic CEO (Dario Amodei) recently said something that most people don't want to hear: “50% of all tech jobs, entry-level lawyers, consultants, and finance professionals will be completely wiped out within 1–5 years.” Your #1 goal should be to learn AI right now.

@LightMemoirs @johnrobertsFox Absolutely! How does 6% of my salary up to $184,500 sound? Contact my finance guy here: ssa.gov/apply

@FoxCapHill @johnrobertsFox Oh wait I re read this post you were offering to cover some expenses for seniors great - let me know your location and I can make suggestions exactly how you can provide $$ directly to the person in need -

CONFIRMED: The DC “Triumphal Arch” WILL have a rooftop observation terrace like Paris’s Arc De Triomphe. Once source tells me the DC terrace will be “much more beautiful. Interior elevators take you there…”

@LightMemoirs @johnrobertsFox Okay, well, they get Social Security so maybe they should just take my money and use it to not rot on the streets of America.

@johnrobertsFox A great view from the top of - seniors elderly disabled rotting and dying on the streets of America- Bet you dont post a reply -

@rbdoeker @BrendanCarrFCC There are glassy buildings near Lake Michigan…

@BrendanCarrFCC The building is close to Lake Michigan = major bird migration route. If it was glassy, it would reflect bird habitat and, thus, cause birds to fly into the building.
