Concur! If argue metro is less stressful. Most you'll have to wait for a train is ten minutes. I'd rather have that predictability than worry about traffic, money aside.

If you plan appropriately, Dan's Cafe is always with you

Good for Virginia. It will be interesting to see if this reduces the frequency of organized retail theft in comparison to what DC and Maryland are seeing, after the law goes into effect.

California seems to have gone in the opposite direction by treating thefts of less than $950 as a misdemeanor that, theoretically could result in, at most, up to 6 months in jail.

Yes, this. Just went through customs at IAD yesterday and it took literally two hours to get through. Really felt for people who had connections, because I’m sure a large percentage of them didn’t make it.

This may not work. The husband may have a state residency that the OP hasn’t over in.

My husband and I have had different state residencies due to military for 8 years. We file state taxes separately and federal jointly.

i moved out of the area a bit over a year ago, it is mostly families & older people and with a sprinkle of students. defo not a place younger people hang out, but if you want that adams morgan isn’t too far

But protests aren’t all the same. They have different energy, etc. like my example a pro choice and an anti abortion protests would feel entirely different. OP should go to one about an issue they actually care about.

Also you can google wmata trip planner

Put in all your destinations and time and it will show u ur travel itinerary. Which u can email to you

Woodley Park location was terrible, Tysons was average but need to pick the right things

Haven't been to the Maryland one yet for dimsum but their dinner was good

I still try dimsum in the area for the spirit of science but that's about it

Virtue? They have an amazing cider cocktail

The Cathedral Scholars Program

A small college prep and access program that starts to work with students in 9th grade until they reach college.

Lol…talking about “juking the numbers” that’s exactly what you did, no?

You used 2013, probably because it was a highly anomalous year that sold the story you wanted to tell with the second lowest number of homicides on record. A number that immediate shot up in the year and second year following when there were the same number of cops.

In 2010 when the number of DC cops was higher by 38,there were 30% more homicides than in 2013. How is that possible if your correlation to the number of cops and murders is supposedly true?

In 2008, when the number of DC cops was higher by 50, the number of murders was 83% higher than in 2013? How is that possible?

You are only right if correlation = causation, which simply is t true.

DC literally has more cops per capita than any other US city, by a margin, despite our coos having fewer responsibilities.

Most common CP household is a single lady in mid to late 30s that lives in one of the apt buildings on CT Ave pulling in over 100k/y in income.

I bet this will totally stop now that it's uhh... more illegal?

You’re the guy they built the silver line expansion for. Enjoy it, cherish it, savor it.

Dang, I’ve never had to wait more than 5 minutes for global entry at Dulles … maybe I’ve been lucky

Edit: sorry, I am referring to the after mobile lounge part of the experience

So if this new “conspiracy” law is implemented like drug conspiracy laws peripheral players are going to end up behind bars for trivial roles. I hope they are able to target the real offenders. There are a lot people behind bars for nonviolent drug offenses whose only real crime is dating an irresponsible loser.

WHERE IS DAN’S CAFE ON THE ITINERARY? Otherwise 10/10

Okay you initially said murders started going up again in 2020, now you say 2018. So now do you acknowledge there’s a correlation with the number of officers employed?

Why would you conclude that? Why did murders more than double during that same period? And before you say Covid, they were rising before 2020.

Yeah the violent crime statistics can easily be juked (as is supported by the numbers re: actual arrests) year over year and suffer from reporting bias. Now do the same analysis with murders — you can’t fake a murder rate or hide a body. That’s your best proxy for overarching crime trends. And the correlation with the number of officers employed is crystal clear.

I feel like I always just accidentally stumble upon them. Or I see a bunch of people on the metro with signs on their way to/from a protest.
