  1. Do all Wegman's today look like this (Fairfax, VA)? I've only ever been in one other, nearly 10 years ago, and it didn't look like this.

  3. Just put on the demo mp3 version of Rotoscope's "One Day" because apparently I'm a NoVa millennial in memory care (Youtube only has the album version) youtube.com/watch?v=V-10GY13D40

    remember the Myspace era!

  11. Shocker: dense urban development (albeit a work-in-progress) is a good, sound financial decision for localities: ffxnow.com/2024/12/13/tysons-m

    Allow more businesses and offices to thrive in dense downtown locations.

  13. 2/2 I was happier about the 66 Parallel Trail than I had expected, especially the fact that it dramatically improves regional bike connectivity to the DC Metro system #bikeVA
    -though much of the trail is exposed, some parts will be nice in summer
    -Blue Ridge Mountains are visible near the Centreville end of the trail
    -the trail accesses a new park & ride with a bike cage that is currently under construction
    -overlooking the trail’s east end in Dunn Loring

  15. 1/2 Today I explored & filmed the 66 Parallel Trail along I-66 between Centreville & Dunn Loring in Northern Virginia #bikeVA
    -at the current west end in Centreville
    -my filming setup: double clamp to hold my selfie stick is easier & lighter than carrying a regular tripod
    -trail view heading west
    -the future Random Hills Park connector will replace a short dirt trail through a forest

  17. Headed west to East Falls Church Station to travel west to film a video riding east from Centreville to Dunn Loring in #fairfaxVA during my vacation back home in Virginia. Are you confused, too? #bikeDC #bikeVA

  19. I'm super stoked for a trip to Fairfax, VA (DC metro area). Have my virtual transit card sorted and have a few destinations on my list, but I really want to add more!

    Where should this Seattleite go? My vibe:
    + Speakeasy-style places that are easy to walk by.
    + Hole-in-the-wall/dive with mind-blowing food/drinks.
    + Striking up random conversations at the bar.
    + On that note, noise levels that allow you to have a conversation.
    Bonus points for N/A options and enby-friendly.

  21. Finished my 3rd fastest 1/2 marathon in the Suburb of DC, あなんだ麗 (Anandare), named after the Buddha's top disciple.

    This is funnier if you live in #FairfaxVA and know some Japanese. And Dharma. Okay, maybe not even then.

  25. Okay, I voted against the reactionary culture warrior fascists. Fox News culture war conservatives have no place in a school board.

  29. #WaPo article on #FairfaxVA #SchoolBoard election - who the candidates are and who endorsed them.

    Keep the nutters out, let the professionals do their jobs instead of banning books, religious indoctrination & qanon nuttery.

  31. An electric fireplace cost somewhere between $400 and $6000.

    $400 to buy a stand-alone or wall mounted space heater
    $6000 to rip out the gas fire place, and put another one into the wall

    This gas fireplace is such a net negative.

  32. Bike to every station on the @wmata Silver Line Extension in my video! All of the stations are now open, & while the Loudoun County, VA stations were tricky to access, I found a way. I included a link to my route in the video description.

  34. Tags to follow if you live in NoVA

    **Poorly used tags**
    #dc - comics, politics
    #washingtondc - political vitriol
    #va - also veterans administration

    **Cities**
    #restonva #fairfaxva #herndonva

    With the VA. Otherwise you get a lot of junk.

    **Counties**
    #loudonva #princewilliamva #arlingtonva

    **Organizations**
    #wmata - sometimes too much customer service rage

    I will pin & update as I find better tags. Please suggest others that have a high good content to irrelevant content ratio.

  36. My feed only has a whiff of place because it is *IMPOSSIBLE* to find accounts by account holders city. So I'm going to experiment with following #herndonva #restonva #fairfaxva #dmv (which is sometimes about department of motor vehicles), but not #nova because that is all over the place. On twitter my accounts generally felt like a place in the real world.
