Reply to Did anyone just hear 8 or so gunshots/fireworks in Georgetown near Volta Park? by blankspace215
Definitely gun shots. That’s a very sketchy part of town. Georgetown is known for its gangs and gun violence. Probably MS 14 or the Crips doing car jackings or illegal crime. I saw some graffiti in Georgetown once. This city has lost its way

Reply to Hello are there any Dari/Pashto speaking grief counselors in the DC area? by throwaway832222222
Would a mullah count? The Mustafa center in Springfield has a dari speaking Mullah who does some counseling. There's also Washington Psychological Wellness in Gaithersburg on Quince Orchard Boulevard.

I've seen this too, though I've also found more preferential hiring of recent MA grads without work experience in the non-profit sector than in profit where work experience is more highly valued. This is especially true for MA's in liberal arts and soft social sciences fields who may not have more highly valued quantitative or business skills.

Could I ask what neighborhood you are in? I have had similar issues with a dog near Walter Pierce dog park.

Because it's cold. It's a joke off of yesterday's post.
Never got the "there's such good weather outside" posts anyways. Like, I don't need to check Reddit to learn about the weather right now.

I agree. People should google first and not clutter the sub with low-effort questions.
Also the post violates Rule 10 of the sub, so people shouldn't have answered at all.

If it sounds like gunshots, but you’re not sure, calling the police is probably not warranted. Someone who is closer to the gunshots should/would be calling to report them.
If it’s close enough to be of concern, you’ll be less uncertain as to if it was fireworks or not.

OK, two sentences in and I already want to punch this guy.
>There was the roof-top Super Soaker bash where a boozed-up crowd sprayed water and Champagne guns. Nicki Night with Minaj tunes and twerking. Cuffing-season mixers with speed dating and onsite matchmakers. Each event was bigger than the last, sold out, and typically enough to cover a couple months’ rent. He dated someone he’d met in his TikTok comments. A Michelin-starred restaurant invited him to its $155 cocktail “experience,” fully comped. Clubs were giving him free tables and bottle service with half-naked girls blasting sparklers and waving lit-up drinks in the district signs. Royalty, baby.
Do people actually like doing this shit? Or do they just pretend to themselves that they do because this is what they assume "living life" actually means?

There are people who are fundamentally incapable of functioning in society and should never be allowed to breathe free air ever again.
If you would threaten to kill a middle schooler to take their shoes, you are one of those people.

Reply to Does the self-service emissions inspection machine work for newly-purchased used cars? by [deleted]
The in-person emissions check goes pretty smoothly if you get there really early.
They basically check to see if your vehicle is actively on fire. If not, seems fine.
