Hey #alxskeets where can I donate a few pairs of eyeglasses?
Yard sign reading “Let’s Build a Safe Braddock Road.” Subtitle: “The City’s Plan Benefits Everyone.” Three icons below: a walking figure labeled “Safer Crosswalks,” a pedestrian crossing sign labeled “Calmer Traffic,” and a bicycle labeled “Protected Lanes.” Footer in dark navy: “Tell City Council that We Want a Neighborhood Street, Not a Highway.” A QR code placeholder appears in the bottom right.
Advocacy flier with a red header reading “Braddock Road Is Not Safe.” Two facts below: “The Federal Highway Administration classifies Braddock Rd as an Unsafe Design” and “The City of Alexandria has designated it a High Injury Network.” A teal banner reads “The City Has a Plan to Fix It,” followed by “A Better Braddock Benefits Everyone” and three benefit columns: Safer Crosswalks (“Shortens the distance kids and seniors have to walk across intersections”), Calmer Traffic (“Visually narrowing the road is a proven way to force drivers to actually drive 25 MPH”), and Protected Lanes (“Separates bikes from cars, providing a safe route to school, Metro, and Old Town”). Dark footer with a QR code: “Tell City Council that We Want a Neighborhood Street, Not a Highway.” Green footer: “Let’s Build a Safe Braddock Road.“
I took a crack at a flyer and yard sign for the Braddock Rd improvement campaign. I’d love feedback. Is there anyone in #AlxSkeets with an eye for graphic design or marketing?
That’s just the madness talking. I believe my exact words were “Join #ALXSkeets, it’ll take over your life.”
OOH, as several folks reply, yes, cutting off "access to civic life" is pretty much the entire point of the US prison system…
…OTOH, it's also a major reason why the US prison system is such an abject failure…
…OTOOH somehow I don't see her watching a 6h city mtg on a Monday night, eh #ALXskeets…?
Hey #ALXSkeets people, this is for us.
@westofrome.bsky.social or @beckyhammer.bsky.social any idea on how many folks are in #ALXSkeets?
Love when a skeet breaks through the #ALXSkeets bubble and someone responds that they don’t have context and I’m like, where do I begin…
How soon before #ALXSkeets has a group marching in all Alexandria parades? Good marketing effort.
Hi @westofrome.bsky.social can we add lifelong Alx resident @cygezunt.bsky.social to #ALXSkeets?
I see that #ALXskeets was not a fan of this joke 🤣

Herbert St. in Alexandria, VA is becoming a struggle for cars. Helped a second person who got stuck approaching Mt. Vernon Ave. Please find alternate routes. Any help we could get from @alexandriavagov.bsky.social would be great! #AlxSkeets
Hey #Alxskeets We will be open today. 11ish until 🤷♂️ Our Bakery is not delivering bread so we will likely be operating on Full Beverage Menu and a limited Food menu. Follow for additional updates.
A weather map showing the required number of beers based on snow fall ranging from 18-24 where mostly snow. 24-36 where mixed. And 36-48 where more ice is anticipated.
