Gentrification
I like this article on gentrification in DC. (“Gentrification in D.C.: How will we remember those displaced?” in the Washington Post). While ‘gentrification’ is a loaded word, the article is one of the more balanced I’ve read on the topic. It doesn’t instantly assume that the new people moving into Continue Reading

T-Mobile
Walked into TMobile location to ask for a small change on my account. Given recent miserable experiences with them, I assumed the worst, and planned on heading to Verizon afterward to switch providers.

Since Antarctica
Saw another Since Antarctica show out at Fat Tuesday’s. Wonderful time. The music was, of course, awesome. The hipsters were a bit much, bouncing in front of me every time I went to take a photo. Amanda (sparklypoof) thoughtfully offered to kick their ass, for me, though.
