With the launch of the game rapidly approaching, there were several posts about WoWF guilds in the Nova sub, so I thought I would share the two biggest ones in case you are still considering joining a local social guild!

Supernova - Alliance PvE

Beltway Bandits - Horde PvP

There are several more which I am happy to add to this post, mention them in your comments!

I was out walking around the neighborhood yesterday afternoon, and made the mistake of getting myself caught in sidewalk traffic in front of Yellow in Georgetown. In addition to the normal nice weather line at Yellow, there were folks asking for photos with a guy who happened to be leaning against the jersey barrier right there. People around me were saying "I didn't recognize him at first" and "My brother is gonna be so jealous".

I'm just curious if anyone was there and knew who the heck the dude was. The quick glance I took, he kinda sorta looked like Jon Bernthal from The Punisher movies.

The other week there was a post about the hilariously bad AI-generated photos that Crack Fish and Chicken uses. I hate slop as much as anyone, but I was curious about the food. I had the fish sandwich combo and a side of Mac & Cheese. Everything was good, and they gave you a lot for your money. I think it's actually one of the better carryout deals on H Street. I thought the sandwich was reasonably photogenic, or at least as photogenic as a carryout fish sandwich can be. I've got no idea why they didn't just take photos of their food, but I plan to return in spite of the weird AI pictures. 

Got an assessment for a house im looking to buy and there is a gigantic ToH right in the back yard. Issue is that part of it is also in the neighbor’s yard but theyd have to cut through the fence to get to it. Neighbor’s place looks unmaintained for the most part, it’s like a junkyard back there so not sure if it’s worth talking to them about it. Ultimately im fine with the cost of take the whole thing out, those lantern flies freak me out! 

Also, the tree professionals I’ve spoken to unfortunately will not do the hack and squirt method, they just grind to a stump but even then, cannot grind the entire stump due to part of it being in the neighbor’s yard on the other side of their fence. Not really sure how to handle this because I dont want the tree sprouts coming up even more. My yard is small so I can find the sprouts and poison them as they come up I guess. Any suggestions?

I live in a rowhouse in NW DC (so no backyard and no car) and am looking to start composting all my food waste because our house produces a lot. I've seen composting bins around the city that you can enter a passcode to use. Is there a central composting resource? Does the city hand out individual bins for single apartments to collect our compost first?

Give me what you got…

Our place is on a corner and we have changed the “front” of the house from one street to the other.

There’s a DC Gov’t process for changing your address. I’m wondering if there are any hidden pitfalls or hassles, other than the obvious inconveniences.

Coming to the old Shouk space. With HipCityVeg closing a while back not sure how this will do. Thoughts?

First Halloween since moving to DuPont (a couple blocks north of the circle). Does anyone know if there’s typically a decent number of slash any trick or treaters? Trying to gauge whether to buy candy /how much if so. Thanks!!

I started near the front, then I realized how crazy a pit of thousands of people was (and i lost one of my earplugs) so I ended up migrating back a bit later in the show. Absolutely fantastic show

Has anyone here been threatened by an elderly man just off shaw?? Sort of like picture below

HIYAH!

I've seen a handful of posts on here about general HVAC recommendations. I am finding that they often don't do the duct work itself.

We desperately need our ducts themselves cleaned after buying a home that was poorly maintained, dusty & had construction done.

Has anyone had a positive experience and have an estimated cost for DUCT CLEANING specifically?

We have a 1000 sqft home in Hill East. 7 vents connected to ducts. One unit.

Went to the DuPont Circle farmers market today for the usual fix of apple cider donut, but I couldn’t find the donut lady. Her spot was given to a Turkish lady with a table.
Anyone know what’s going on?

Had an absolute blast at the free show!

As a Texan, I'm willing & able to get my HEB tortillas shipped to me but I wonder if anyone has intel on local freshly made flour tortillas I can buy instead. My freezer stash is running low!

I got a bikeshare membership about two months ago and use it a few times a week, so this might be frequency illusion but it seems like the amount of people using micro mobility in Ward 1/2 has exploded over the past few weeks. Not complaining, just curious to see what's going on in others' experience!

Former music major (clarinet) here really missing playing in ensemble. I used to play in one of the local community bands but my work schedule is so irregular these days I can’t commit to it anymore. I was hoping to put a feeler out there for other classically trained folks who might want to pull together a chamber ensemble and play some rep for fun on a semi-regular basis. I’d love to hear from other musicians who are more interested.

Anyone know why the Hilton on 16th is dark af and looking like it’s closed?

Hello everyone, and congratulations to those who challenged themselves today!
