We’ve searched the skies for centuries, assuming contact would come from space, but 71% of Earth remains unexplored beneath the ocean. Verified reports of objects moving from air to sea raise a chilling question: what if they were here first? New ep out now!

Elections have consequences. If you don’t like how the current ANC Commissioner (who won in an uncontested election in 2024) is trying to push a local business out of the neighborhood because of “daytime outdoor cafe noise,” you should consider/encourage a friend to run in November 2026.

We didn’t move next to a football stadium and would prefer to not have the loud music and cheering!!! Fyi, I'd be happy to support the move!

Canada’s Roswell isn’t a rumor, it’s a paper trail. In 1967, witnesses watched a UFO dive into the waters of Shag Harbor. No wreckage. No missing aircraft. Just official reports admitting: unknown origin. New ep out now! #AstonishingLegends #Podcast

You may think screens have destroyed your ability to read, you may think your focus is beyond saving, but I’m telling you, it only takes a bit of effort to recover an attention span. You are capable of reading books again.

The DC public library so good you can get your taxes done, get legal services, record a podcast episode, get your resume done, get your passport, and borrow gardening tools all in the same place 😂

I got engaged at @dcpl at Shaw my neighborhood branch. As a lifelong book lover (and proud member of the DCPL for a decade) I couldn’t think of a better place (or person) to say yes to forever

if you talk to any serious hiker they’re like yes demons are real, make sure you don’t walk along a stream for too long, sometimes a witch trails me for miles, avoid wearing bright colors, and pray being entering the forest. the ancient is still very much alive along the edges.

Great analysis because it’s 1) a year by year analysis (since August is already slow in DC historically) and 2) shows data from past months to show this is not just the layoffs/contract cuts

NEW: Reservations at D.C. restaurants dropped 16% YoY the day Trump announced his police takeover. The next day, 27%. By Day 3 they were down 31% compared to 2024. It couldn't come at a worse time. D.C. Summer Restaurant Week starts... tomorrow. wusa9.com/article/news/local…

The White House says a changed date for Summer Restaurant Week accounts for any dip in reservations. Restaurant and bar owners say the takeover has hurt business.

📚 DC has 26 (25) public libraries open 7 a days week! That's a lot of free books, event and community spaces. And if you haven't visited the MLK Library, you're missing out on the rooftop views and our famous indoor slide! 🥰

Folklore is a lens that doesn't come off. There are certain places you encounter and your first thought comes from parental scarelore that taught you: 'Stay Belows live in places like this.' The lore lives in us. Stories that don't ever end. – Joanna Vickers, 1982 #VOH #Folklore
