DC mosquitoes ⁉️
Friends, speak to me about this species of DC mosquitoes.
Naturally, I’ve been basking in windows open weather and was not prepared for these lil demons to invade.
They are eating my kiddo alive and leaving massive red circles around the bite but then leaving red dots all over him after healing. I have been having almost hive like reaction to them. This is not our usual response.
Are they just brutal here? I never would have taken the city for a breeding ground for them!!
You’ll Get By
Just heard “You’ll Get By” from the upcoming EP and I swear to glob this man never disappoints. Makes me cry the cries I need to cry.
“Just take it slow. Cuz everything everywhere all the time ain’t a thing that you always have to know.”
Can’t wait to get this EP!!
Best BBQ joint in DC?
Talking brisket, pulled pork, sides and maybe even a Texas Twinkie. 😂
What is good?
Way to go Ticketmaster.
Allowing resale tickets while the general on sale is still happening. Way to get your money twice!!! Traaaashhhh. Really stopping the scalpers while also double dipping.
Fogo de Chao thoughts?
My friend recently went to a fogo de chao in another state and thought I might like it for my birthday dinner this year. Has anyone been to the local ones? Are there other similar restaurants you liked better? I feel wicked stupid as I’ve never heard of this concept and still don’t quite understand it but ya girl is pregnant and wants all the meats.
Thanks in advance!
Who dropped the sex pump at the firehouse!?!
Meanwhile in NW DC…
“The Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) investigated a suspicious device left at the Engine 20 firehouse in Northwest D.C. Wednesday morning.
That device, however, was later determined to be an "electronic sex portable pump device," according to a police incident report.
Officers went to the firehouse in the 4300 block of Wisconsin Avenue, Northwest, at around 7 a.m. after a D.C. firefighter was approached by a person at the rear of the building who left a blue and black electronic device with its wires exposed.”
Need a new OB/GYN as GW MFA is sinking fast.
Hey everyone. I made a post a few weeks ago looking for an OB/GYN as I just moved here.
We had a healthcare exchange but once I reported my pregnancy it kicked me to total traditional Medicaid coverage. That meant I had to leave one office and start with another. I chose GW MFA and loved my provider. However I was just told they are down 13 providers and are booking out MONTHS and my dream doc is leaving too.
I need to find another provider ASAP. I do not like MedStar after a horrific experience in the ED and subsequent ICU care so I’m terrified to think about going to them.
Can someone help me with recommendations?
Can I use DC Medicaid at inova doctors and hospitals?
Thank you sooo much. This is such a weird experience having been with it last office for almost 2 decades.
One more: GW Faculty for OB/GYN? Or Whitman Walked for PCP?
Okay bishes.
I have decided to explore one more since I’ve seen some wild feedback about CWC.
Has anyone used GW Faculty OB/GYN staff. Specifically M St location?
Appreciate you so much!! 💜💜💜
Best lines?
Saw this in a few other subs.
So hard to just pick one.
Two of my all time faves are:
“I awoke to kitchen smoke, you dancin' like God's moved in you before.”
And
“And even with my baby sittin' next to me
I'm a self-sabotagin' suicide machine”
Capital Women’s Care?
Thoughts on CWC? I need to establish care here but every time I call I feel like the people who answer have weird energy.
Specifically looking for thoughts on division 39.
(Originally posted in r/washingtondc but some folks said this was a great place for this type of question. Sorry if you’re seeing me aaagaaainnnn 😘)

Uber Awareness!!
This did not happen to me but I have now seen two people report that uber drivers have added tips to their ride via these newly added passenger screens.
My last three cars have had this screen which just sits in the trip and tip screen. It DOES allow for a tip to be added from this tablet hanging from the passenger seat.
People are reporting drivers are tipping themselves after they exit the car.
👉🏻 Ensure when you’re dropped off that the ride ends.
👉🏻 Make sure to check your final charges on your bank statement if you ride in a car with one.
Mohegan Sun prices 😂😂😂
$392 for GA floors? $520 lower levels? $316 uppers?
Foo Fighters are insane with these prices. Concerts are not vacations. This needs to stop.
Uber Eats > DoorDash?
Hear me out and it not just because I was banned from the DD sub for giving back energy to an unhinged driver butttttt…
Ordered on UberEats. From order to delivery it was 32 minutes. Tipped $12 cash. Zero dry begging from the driver and zero issue delivering to my door in a high rise.
I’m starting to think uber eats > DoorDash. Thoughts?
PS : tip your drivers!!!!
Reaction to onions?
Do any of y’all have weird reactions to onions? For as long as I can remember if I eat a sandwich with raw onion the corner of my mouth and or lip will swell. I don’t know that it’s EVERY time but it’s almost every time. And, it’s almost exclusively a sub type sandwich. I don’t eat a lot of bread or sandwiches so it’s noticeable when it happens.
Curious if this happens to others!!

Selfies for tickets
Since when did Ticketmaster start requiring biometrics for ticket purchases? This is getting out of control. Feels like we need another class action lawsuit. They already repaired way too much personal information but making you take selfies for most events or uploading your ID is out of line for a ticket middle man.
The Nightmare Upstairs
I can’t find a lot of conversation online about the Hulu documentary “The Nightmare Upstairs” about Ty and Brynlee Larson who barricaded themselves for two months in their home to avoid a reunification program with their father. Or - any updates with actual updates.
I’m curious what other people think after watching this case in the short two episode preview we got on Hulu.
Bowl friendly food places?
Hey it’s your annoying local mom with a nose ring and a broken arm asking the hard questions…
Where do you get yummy foods in takeout bowls?
I just got my kiddo into Cava and frankly though it’s not top tier foodie foods it’s easy to eat with a broken arm and the garlic dressing is bomb. Plus it’s mid kid friendly.
Cava NW is closed for renovations until August. 🙄
Anything else in NW that’s scrumptious and bowl friendly?
Thank you!
