>Do NOT wear your Niners gear unless you are ok with getting harassed.
I definitely want to echo this. Went to a philly-niners game years ago and we kept our gear/support to non-existance. They are exceptionally passionate, which is a big ol euphemism.

I dunno the sound there has always been good to me.
I am hard of hearing, so take that with a grain of salt.

Reply to Does this subreddit represent the true sentiment DC residents have for their city? by 42beastmode
Something I learned from my own grad school experience: if something is free, there will be an abundance of supply. It's easy to apply this to people complaining on the internet.
DC has so many great things to offer, and there are a lot of folks who put a lot of time into highlighting all the amazing things this city can offer.

I googled the name, and it is either a priest from the 1800, or an editor from the GW school for International Affairs.

It's totally the governments fault for bending to the will of automobile capitalist for over 100 years to prioritize the infrastructure that was built, so more cars will be bought.
But now, they are making more solutions possible to establish rules and laws that we can adapt to.
If we are annoyed that they are creating a more equitable system, then you're just being a privilege asshole.

I think they are more keen than you are giving them credit.
We KNOW you need to stop and yield, and I think many folks from other states aren't used to city flow.

Maybe not as upscale, but I'm a huge fan of The Royale or Lulu's wine garden

Try Z and Z brothers. Sometimes whole foods carry them, since they are local.

Reply to Live in DC or Nova? by CompetitionAway1166
So right off the bat, you will have a hard time finding a one bedroom for that rental price in DC, so if you're looking at keeping your rent reasonable you would either need roommates, live further away, or stay in Fairfax.
Here are my other bits of advice to help:
- if you're committed to keeping your classes, I'm assuming those are 3 or more days/evenings of the week that you're going to be driving to fairfax. While definitely doable, it'll start to add up, in gas and, more importantly, time. I would think about what you really want to prioritize your time.
My inclination would be to find a place in the middle so you can access both.
-
having a work from home setup that you enjoy and effective is unique to everybody. If that means you need your own space to do your work that's outside your bedroom, might want to reconsider roommates.
-
finally, having a car in DC can add up the expenses, make sure to do your research on that.
Hope that helps and best of luck with your choice

It's complex, it's a mixture of inequality, DC VIP, and expectations IMO. In my 20+ years here, I've seen way worse patrons than servers.

Some, not all. I definitely agree with meaningful enforcement such as reciprocity for outstanding tickets, or a meaningful punishment when caught. But I think this is all a short term solution.

I would utilize the ggwash recommendation tool found here:https://ggwash.org/view/86803/this-interactive-tool-lets-you-explore-and-candidates-views-on-housing-transportation-and-land-use
It breaks down each response for how they stand on transportation related issues. At the bottom are a few key questions about driving , parking, pedestrians and cycling. Those candidates with the strongest approaches towards vision zero and pedestrians/cycling priorities would be your better bets for who to vote for.
