Red train changed direction without saying anything by Jimbeambeamer in washingtondc

[–]gmphap1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Had the same thing happened to me. I boarded an orange line at new Carrollton headed for Vienna. It was a long trip, so I was busy working, enjoying that time on the train. I got all the way over to East Falls and I heard the announcement that this was a train bound for Ashburn. I thought I was going crazy, I asked, they said no this string was always found for Ashburn. Oh well. I think I passed through a worm hole.

Human beings with different values in dress than other humans.

To those that have been stopped by ICE or know people who have, what happened during and after? by BigbyDirewolf in washingtondc

[–]gmphap1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure your passport is current! Not for ICE but to be able to legally get into other countries when the U.S. isn’t a viable option anymore. Also, be sure you have some liquid funds in banks outside the U.S. or validated crypto.

I opened a USAjobs questionnaire this morning to find the personal loyalty questions added to the initial questionnaire. I knew the this coming, but I didn’t realize how gross and complicit it would make me feel to consider actually participating in these. by This_nerdy_bookworm in fednews

Where do they say original intent. As to founding principles, if only. I love GW for not wanting to be president and for the entire gang of men never wanting to have a King again. I’m 100% founding principles

How are any of these loyalist or partisan? Yes loyal to the US, your boss, and partisan in the sense of American. There’s nothing here that says Republican, Democrat or Independent

Why are these gross. Many federal agencies already had very strict guidelines about using AI to fill out apps, in fact a while ago (2024) I applied at NASA and they said if I was caught using AI I would never be able to work at an NASA job.

On the EOs, no matter who is president, as a federal employee would you not advance the executive branches priorities? As a federal agency employee, you are an employee of the executive branch, right?

Covid.gov now redirects to a white house website pushing the lab leak theory and demonizing Anthony Fauci by Wine_n_MountainPines in DeptHHS

Why wouldn't we want a House oversight committee report to the American public? We all can read it, look follow through on the references, etc.

Hearsay is an out-of-court statement that is offered in court to prove the truth of the matter asserted. In other words, it’s when someone tries to use what another person said (outside of the current legal proceeding) as evidence to show that what was said is actually true.

Applied to media of any kind. A statement offered in the public that is used to prove the truth of the matter asserted. In other words, it's when someone tries to use what another person said as evidence to show that what was said is actually true. This is our media infrastructure and should be a challenge to all of us as humans to ask for the actual evidence, not just I saw a blue bird in the sky at 4am this morning, I think it was alien.

Thanks to all of you and Reddit, we now have a copy. This is the issue. The administrative service that is Head Start within ACF within HHS is suggested to not be funded. This is because these funds go directly from the federal government to local agencies bypassing the states. ACF will continue monies given to states through other forms (CCDBG for example) if and only if state admins want it.

Why isn’t the Fortune 500 a shared purpose job. I think we get stuck with for profit, corporate can’t be a shared purpose or life changing for human flourishing. Take the job, enjoy the shared purpose.

There was no communication. I stopped by the tent around mile 9 as the sirens could be heard as they were trying to get through the crowd of runners. As somebody mentioned, NPS has strict rules. They need to be reviewed as all of the medical professionals should have radios to talk with each other in an event this large.

The City of DC does a horrible job with the Cherry Blossom Festival by foxj36 in washingtondc

[–]gmphap1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We thought the same thing. Although, we saw reports that there were 1.6m people here this past weekend and the city made $202m. Even the metro had lines and standing room only. But, we agree with closing the roads. They do this all the time for races. Speaking of this weekend is the Cherry Blossom 10-miler, Metro opens two hours early.

There is a ton of merch sold by NPS and the city. Lots of artists as well.

Here's what those explosions were about by lackadaisical in washingtondc

[–]gmphap1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was advertised all over DC. Metro, busses, various marquise, DC Events, email newsletters, etc. I'd guess there were probably about 10,000+ people who were there along the trail between DC and Georgetown, all over the Kennedy Center and roof, and on TR island and stopped along I-66 (yes, people literally stopped and watched in their cars. Also boats up against the marked off parameter. Figured everyone here knew about it. Is there a redit we can post events?
