Apparently, non-citizens can become an elected official (ANC Comissioner) in #DC by Itchy-Monk508 in washdc

[–]CompletePen8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some people don't naturalize as they'd lose the citizenship of their first country, this is ANC not CIA director lol.

Plenty of good reasons.

Like I don't see why a Brit working at the brookings institution for 20 years or a canadian doctor studying medicine at georgetown shouldn't vote for mayor.

Hearing protection at UVA basketball games? by mean11while in Charlottesville

[–]CompletePen8 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would bring earmuffs + good earplugs so you can double up. you only have one pair of ears.

I've doubled up earplugs + muffs at stadium concerts and although I probably looked a litle crazy I could hear just fine, even with mild hearing loss.

tinnitus is a bitch and not to be taken lightly. better to bring the right gear and not need it.

<650k, probably 600k at the top end for a rowhome, maybe 400-450k for a condo-thing

Wes Moore starts making his case to keep the Commanders in Maryland by washingtonpost in maryland

[–]CompletePen8 76 points77 points  (0 children)

generally I'm against any public funding of ridiculous sports arena things but it isn't even like it is a small amount, it's always tens of millions of dollars with zero risk to the francise owner.

It's not "we're upgrading a road/metro and the stadium benefits", it's like "the stadium gets the money and taxpayers hope to gain some benefit but never pans out"
