“Dear PoPville,
As I was out grabbing lunch Saturday, a protest against police violence was coming up 14th. Cops were closing streets, redirecting traffic, and the chants of “No racist police” echoed over the sirens.
As I walked up 14th, I saw a man speaking to his young daughter as she sat in her stroller watching the protest. I didn’t hear their whole conversation, but I heard the words “Isn’t this cool . . . In other countries, you couldn’t do this.” (more…)
Thanks to Paul for sending from Adams Morgan: “Lichen Art on Ontario, just off Florida.”
I think this is the wall at the base of the Marie Reed Elementary School/Rec Center behind the soccer field.

From the Mayor’s Office:
“The District’s reported data for Sunday, July 26, 2020 includes 78 new positive coronavirus (COVID-19) cases, bringing the District’s overall positive case total to 11,858.

Tragically, 582 District residents have lost their lives due to COVID-19.
The community spread chart is subject to fluctuation because the data is based on symptom onset date. As national demand for testing increases and results take longer to come back in DC and across the country, DC Health has identified a need to increase the reporting lag time by four days to reduce volatility in the data. The most recent data reflects an increase in community spread. To ensure this graph accurately reflects the most recent data, the community spread count is being paused as these adjustments are made.” (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
Was leaving the Home Depot in Brentwood today [Friday] and saw this woman at the corner of Rhode Island Row. As a woman and her daughter, who could not have been more than five, walked by she picked up the poster with the graphic image on it and tried to block their way on the sidewalk. She got within two feet of them and kept moving as they tried to avoid her, it was painful to watch the daughter look at the poster and then look up and say something to her mother. As a bonus the woman had no mask on.
Regardless of how you feel about abortion, that is f’d up.”
And on Sunday morning: (more…)
