Thanks to ANC Commissioner Jeff Rueckgauer for sharing with us:
“As suspected, Dupont Circle *WILL BE CLOSED* this weekend. IDK what legit “health and safety” concerns would occur this weekend that couldn’t occur any other days. (Actually, like last year, someone ordered it closed as a middle finger to gays.)”

Thanks to G. for sending: “what the hell happened to the glass pyramids?”
Presumably to protect them from 250 Fireworks/festivities?

“Dear PoPville,
I found this bird in the 4300 block of Harewood Road, NE. It is a sun conure. It is friendly and sweet.
Anyone who thinks it may belong to them can reach out to me with photos of their own lost bird so we can try to make a match. If I can’t find the owner, I will keep the bird, so I am not looking for adopters- just the true owner!”
