Same. Though here in DC half the Uber X’s are luxury brands anyway (gotta pay that car note somehow). I usually get an XL or SUV so I’m not crammed in the back of a Honda Fit
As someone who works from home full and just accepted a job offer (that will be in-office), trust me when I say it wears thin after a while. To be fair, I’m a very social person but you start to feel unmotivated and lonely more than “free”.
I think you are thinking of a different complex. This is 7th and P Street NW. I’m not doubting that crime happens (I mean shit I’m from St. Louis), but that particular area just did not give me that vibe at all. There are tons of super nice row houses or luxury apartments mixed in with every type of restaurant and bar, and the whole thing is loaded up with well-dressed young professionals.
That being said, it’s not always those who live in the area that commit the crimes. Luckily, I have garage parking and have a good eye for anything sketchy as I currently live in an actual “in transition” hood in STL.
Kinda shocked steam room/sauna didn’t make the list. Nothing better than grabbing the biggest Fiji water you can find and sweating it out for a good half hour.
If you’re really feeling bougie, throw a massage on top of that and you are back.
Metabolic fatigue/damage. Long term dieting slows down your metabolism as your body learns to adapt to the new calorie level. As someone who did the same thing (lost 80 pounds), take it from me. Luckily for me, that was my goal weight and I was able to up my kcals and hit the weights harder for a few months.
What I would recommend is a diet break. Up your calories by 15-20% for two weeks and cut the cardio (keep lifting).
Not only will your body thank you, you will be mentally refreshed and ready to jump back in. I know it sounds like taking two steps back, but I promise it will work.

THANK YOU. There was some other article a while ago where some Arlington weirdo was cruising bars in Shaw (where I live).
Arlington. Is. Not. DC.
Yeah this was really glossed over given the herpes bit but who the fuck is planning vacations with someone you’ve been dating a few weeks?
I learned last week what Blue Mercury was after a $300 charge showed up on our credit card statement.
Goddamn Tysons douchebag stinking up my neighborhood. Please refrain from visiting Shaw and creeping on people drinking wine.
Sincerely,
Everyone who lives here
El Centro?

Never got past the fact that you misused “passed”

Luxury building in Shaw with rooftop pool, dog park (I have a dog), grills etc. Awesome gym and a Giant grocery in the first floor of the building.
It’s 1,100 sq ft with a killer balcony and a view. Believe it or not, that’s a good deal for that area.
Yikes. I would be out on this and that’s coming from a guy who just signed a lease on a 2 bedroom in DC for $3600/month.

Excuse me good sir. Are you, by any chance, a caucasian?
I’m team #NoCase, so I agree with that take wholeheartedly.
This is an incredibly bad take. #SponsorDuda

Because living somewhere like Akron sucks
Such a great take. I have been stocking up on Mizzou and St. Louis Cardinals dri fits lately.
If you want to get a little bougie, Vineyard Vines and Southern Tide both make nice “performance” polos.
I just pay mine off bi-weekly on my payday. Puts me at ease in case some emergency came up that I would need cash/check for.
I live that cash back life, but the idea is the same. Put every single thing I can on the card.
