“Maybe he was the real source of the poop emoji???”
Just another morning on the mean streets of Mount Pleasant Street. But let’s take this opportunity to make it a caption contest.
Mount Pleasant
From a press release:
“What: The DC Paid Family Leave Coalition is celebrating National Small Business Week with a “Purchasing Power Happy Hour” (non-alcoholic) featuring three of the over 60 local establishments who are speaking out for decent jobs and common-sense paid leave policies. Happy hour snackers and sippers can purchase beverages from Flying Fish Coffee & Tea, pizza from Angelico’s La Pizzeria (Mt. Pleasant location), and cupcakes from Grassroots Gourmet. Attendees will also have the opportunity to make Mother’s Day cards for Councilmembers urging them to show some love for DC moms – and all parents and family members – by passing a powerful paid family and medical leave policy.
Small business owners in our city’s neighborhoods provide the daily necessities, and the special treats, of our daily lives. These owners want to be good employers and good neighbors – but it’s just too expensive to provide paid family and medical leave out-of-pocket. Over 60 local businesses across the District, from bakeries to banks, have joined the DC Paid Family Leave Coalition working for a strong paid leave program that levels the playing field for small businesses, supports valued employees at tough times, and helps keep people in decent jobs. Delicious coffee, pizza, and cupcakes don’t have to come with a side of low wages and benefits – we can have good jobs and tasty treats too.

I thought they were having a soft opening tonight but it’s across the street… Alas, we will continue to stay tuned and offer prayers…the awning and movie posters are new (to me):
Mount Pleasant.
Mount Pleasant.
Habit Cafe opened up in the former speakeasy space below Radius back in June 2015.
Were there any fans of the cafe? Purple Patch opened up back in March 2015 – what’s the word on them?

“Grrrl Love and Revolution: Riot Grrrl New York City
This film is showing at Mt. Pleasant Library Thursday [3160 16th St. NW], March 31st at 7:00 p.m.
Mt. Pleasant filmmaker Abby Moser spent most of the 1990s documenting the feminist punk movement Riot Grrrl in NYC. The film that came out of this footage and her own participation in the movement, “Grrrl Love and Revolution: Riot Grrrl NYC”, premiered at the Museum of Modern Art in NYC (2011). The video traces its roots to the Olympia, Washington and Washington DC punk scenes, to radical feminism and the lesbian and gay rights movements of the 70s and 80s, and to early women punk rockers.”
