Sounds like Snorlax (see other comment above) from Target would be a good investment. Hope your day moves in the upward direction.

market as a whole is flat. Market for done properties in desirable areas is still pretty good

Never played it...no intention in doing so. I had trading cards growing up. I have an indoor storage unit (12x12) that is full of Baseball, Hockey, and Football trading cards dating back to 1976 up to 2012. Sorted per team/year, sleeved (rigid and semi-rigid, and some screw down for the special cards), and in binders.
I seriously need to just sell them LOL

I work by the Lombardy Kroger and still drive to the Publix on Forest Hill even driving past the Food Lions. But I don't mind the drive. I was hoping with all the new apartments that something would turn into a grocery store, but nope. Manchester Market is just a convience store and I think that's as close as we'll get.

Definitely depends. You can’t buy a car from someone on Etsy but if you need soap, there are about 5 million unique choices and 4.999 million of them are made by hippies at craft shows

city media doesn't stop a city lines, and Rogers ran for mayor with a lot of coverage. I really doubt no one had not heard of her.
This was a massive whiff

You didn't act like a dick.
I was (regrettably) a dick.

Snoop Dogg said the best. Put a thousand people in a room who don't like each other in, fill the air with weed and they'll be chilling; and taking selfies.
Put 4 motherfuckers in a room that don't like each and introduce alcohol, someone's going to end up dead.
Gov't doesn't like cannabis because it's tough to regulate, and tax it like tobacco

Lool! Such a stupid mentality you have. I’m in no way racist but I know that these ladies aren’t doing this stuff. Just because they’re a part of a group that you don’t like (not do I) doesn’t mean they’re going around publicly acting racist. That would be insane and they wouldn’t last 5 minutes in todays world. You’re writing fiction for internet points.

we might. But Alexis Rogers is ALL hedge fund money, bought and paid for. Sonjia smith gave her all of her money, Bagby at least got it from different corporations

Dude get a lawyer. It's all well and good that some people in the comments got off easy, but in VA a reckless driving is a big deal. It's not like you're just going in for any other moving violation. If you get a pissed off judge, well you're looking at a misdemeanor on your criminal record on top of the expected insurance hit. Oh and you might go to jail. Unlikely, but possible. When the possible consequences are that severe, it's time to get a lawyer.

This makes me oddly sad. Even though I rarely use it since I don't enter the mall from that side, I love the underpass. It feels like a neat, semi-secret, cool thing, and I wish we had more things like it.

Chesterfield was in 2nd place line to get the Intel semiconductor plant, but the site wasn't ready. I think we will get a fab again in future.

Bagby has repped a delegate seat that covers close to half the district since 2015, he’s chair of the Black Legislative Caucus, and had endorsements from Kaine, Warner, and local IBEW. It was a lock.
Only a minor portion of the district is in the city, so most voters yesterday had probably never heard of her. As a quick check, about 30% of votes in this district in 2019 came from the city. Rodgers getting 21% in a 4 day campaign against two sitting delegates feels like a massive over performance. She also over performed by quite a bit in the mayoral race. I would bet on her getting into office soon enough.

Dude, if Youngkin drops out you've going to see the real crazy.
Winsome Sears is pretty far out and pretty far right.

We are talking about metro wide, aren't we? I have heard instances of people moving from portions of Southside Virginia to Richmond only just to work in those said industries.

If you're looking in the city limits you're going to keep running into this. Limited supply does that regardless of what the broader market is doing.
