I decided to stop going there back in 2015. It was embarrassing to bring a friend from Argentina to the city and have her regard it in the same light as the worst parts of Buenos Aires (that she had seen, anyway). It doesn't sound to m

My father has told me stories about being around Washington D.C. in the 70s. How it wasn't all that uncommon to stumble across a dead body in the winter. Whether homeless or drunk, they'd fall asleep and die in the cold. One parti
