“Dear PoPville,
I wanted to share this recent post from American University’s Kogod School of Business. Kogod likes to position themselves as experts on AI, but they’re apparently not well versed in stronger social media practices. (more…)

All those trees have been cut down!!
Ed. Note: Anyone remember when back in 2014 they planted all those trees so, allegedly, folks would stop playing soccer on the grass…?
“Dear PoPville,
Do you have any information on all the work being done on Piney Branch? What are they putting in there?” (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I wanted to share a concern about the park across the street, which many of us in the neighborhood love and use regularly. Renovation work started around July 2025 and then stopped pretty abruptly around August. For a while, there was no information about why the work paused, and eventually a rumor started circulating that human remains had been found.

“Dear PoPville,
I need to know EVERYTHING about this. I could barely focus my eyes or camera on what was going on, but this strange vehicle was going west on Rhode Island Ave, NE at the South Dakota intersection a little before 1am (January 1st) blasting about Trump and the Epstein files. It sounded so demonic at first a couple of neighbors came out with me to see what was happening.”
Anyone else hear this? If so what part of town were you in?
