How do I explain to small business owners that the menu on the left is one billion times more appealing than the one on the right

The President purged the final EAC commissioners, leaving the agency unable to take official action. But as our Pam Smith explains: "Election administration doesn't stop...The EAC supports election administration but does not conduct elections." bit.ly/3Rb9s7p

Obama should invite the Knicks for a visit to the Oval House replica at the Obama Presidential Center.

Because I was already at the Metro pop up shop in DC and there was zero line at the Mall’s security check points, husband and I slipped into the Great American State Fair. The stories are true — for the size of the space, it was nearly empty at 3 pm on the Saturday before a major holiday.

Is it worth it to visit the WMATA pop up shop today? Is all the 50th and 250th metro merch picked over?

My queue number going into the Sara Barielles presale was 777. #BangtanBrain

I’m finally watching and feeling ok enough to watch BTS’ Yet to Come performances from 2022. I don’t know what they knew back then or how much was already planned, but I want to believe they knew then that ARIRANG was the best that was yet to come.

I’m so jealous, I almost want to work in DC again to earn this title.

Today, we hosted 50 customers who earned “Top 1%” bragging rights in our 2025 Metro Rewind ridership report! 🤩 They got to hang out with @wmatagm.bsky.social, scored cool merch, & even tested their skills on our bus & rail simulator to see if they have what it takes to be an operator 🚇🚍

I have a theory that ARIRANG has been a part of #BTS' long-term plan from the get-go. In my latest article, I discuss the relevance of the album title with an ethnomusicologist, as well as Korean elders who lived through trauma and found comfort in the folk song song.👇

Pity the poor local news social media manager who chooses to run a photo of fewer than all seven BTS members along with its localized story on the upcoming world tour.

Mentally preparing myself for BTS ticket-buying by recalling the nightmare experiences of nearly every kpop concert I’ve seen since 2021.

I’m on an Amtrak line in Illinois, and it is superior to the Northeast lines.

Can this trend spread to device remotes and cell phones?

Amazingly, reaction times using screens while driving are worse than being drunk or high—no wonder 90 percent of drivers hate using touchscreens in cars. Finally the auto industry is coming to its senses.

Turning away from the Kennedy Center sadness, good art continues and can be found anywhere you want to look.

In 2023 I became obsessed with videos of dads in cargo shortswaiting in parking lots during Taylor Swift's Eras Tour. So when she came to town, I grabbed a camera and headed down to talk to them. I thought it'd be funny. It turned out to be something else entirely.

Of all the things I imagined I would do post-Election 2024, I never thought I’d need to block the KenCen on Facebook.

I haven’t been to the Regal in Springfield Town Center since at least 2018 and wow it has really gone down hill. The recliners used to be luxury and now they are falling apart and patchy. So sad. I miss my AMC A List subscription.
