@AlisonHornDC @AsYouAreDC As You Are is literally my favorite queer place, and among my favorites in general, to go to in DC. It’s the most inclusive and accepting space I’ve been. Go there so much that most of the bartenders know my drink order when they see me before I even say anything.
Can we talk about one of the most meaningful things I did as an ANC? So much love to @AsYouAreDC.
I'm listening to ANC 6B's Nov meeting a 2nd time. WORTH NOTING: Commissioners reference @AsYouAreDC techniques to mitigate noise & crowd concerns AND suggest applicants for @DCGov_ABCA license ask Rach & Jo for advice addressing concerns. LET'S RECOGNIZE THEIR SUCCESS @HillRagDC
