“Dear PoPville,
I saw the attached flyers in front of the 1600 block of 15th St, NW right below their little library. No idea what property they are discussing, but if there is an illegal rooming house, (more…)

“Dear Popville,
It’s that time of year again! My partner and I are cleaning out our apartment and have quite a few CDs, books, clothes, and suits that we don’t want to just throw away, but are ready to part with. We were wondering if anyone in the community may have recommendations for what we can do with these items—perhaps local non-profits that provide used suits to individuals interviewing for jobs, bookstores that accept used books, etc. Many thanks!”

“Dear PoPville,
Any advice on strategies for minimizing waiting in line to pay respects to Jimmy Carter this week? ChatGPT suggests 10-12 hrs wait! I don’t have a problem going in the middle of the night. Did anybody do that for Bush I?”

Seemed professional and clean cut, intelligent and his story tracked as far as what he knew about NYC and his phone number was NYC area code. I started feeling uncomfortable after I gave him my number and he sent me his. He kept asking about coffee shops that were open on Christmas and trying to get me to go for a walk with him. (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
Does anyone knows what’s up with all the yellow Yankee buses all around the city.
We just passed like 6 of them in a row on Constitution (Friday, Dec. 27th)
I saw one that said Metro bus in the window downtown earlier this week but this seems excessive for metro work and they are in really random parts of town.”

Update:
“The day after it was posted to PoPville (Dec 5) and 2000+ days after the May 2019 work order to fix this “net” was opened, DPR came out and fixed ONLY the goal nets – not the big safety “net” designed to keep balls and kids out of the street. (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
I recently joined Mint Dupont and now find out it’s going to be closed for remodeling from Christmas to new year’s. While I fully support the hard-working staff getting a break the closure is actually due to construction, hope they’ll be nice improvements. Here’s the rub, I’ve asked and they refuse to prorate the monthly membership fee, (more…)
