Started Waco last night and I am astounded by idiocy. Did they think the feds were just going to go away? Ask anyone in prison how well their sovereign citizen argument worked against the IRS.

I got in late last night after a long stop and go drive down 95 after a day in DC. I wish I had another hour or two of sleep before I head off to work. On another note, I think I have bursitis in my hip so I need to find an urgent care clinic today to get a cortisone shot. Good times.

First real job interview in 20 years +- (I'm almost 50 currently employed but looking for something new) a bit nervous. Previous job interviews were just kind of "required" as I moved up the ladder. I'm hoping to change my final career path...

Edit: video/teams interview, which I think could be worse than in person, but at least the job is wfh not the 6 day a week food management position I currently have.

Boaty still has a low fever and she can't go to preschool until she's been fever-free for 24 hours. I have my first therapy appointment in five weeks today, when she's supposed to be at preschool. I guess she's getting some rare tablet time today. I don't know what else to do, I keep having to reschedule therapy for logistical reasons and I need my time to vent!

I can’t recall a “Mind Blowing Movie” of late, but I think the best horror movie I’ve seen in a while was Nope

Lots of people use this wording (honest, trusted, etc) when asking for mechanic recommendations. I would try the search bar for 'mechanic' and you'll get a whole boatload to choose from.

Reply to Towing at the VCU 7/11 by Allkin06

To be honest here, the owner of the property unfortunately has every imaginable right to remove your metal box from their dumbass parking lot. Tow truck drivers suck, only when they tow your car though. I don’t know of any widespread evil phenomenon that occurs in the car-towing industry, however I don’t know much about the industry in general.

I do know that my car *almost got towed when I parked my car in a private gravel parking lot after a night out. I was DD. When we returned to my car, sure enough, my car was meeting its fate of being hauled away behind a $180 paywall. Thankfully, I guess because of Virginia towing laws (which I heard about in this thread) he dropped it for $30, and i was able to take my friends home safely. I really hope to live in a future Richmond that maybe has better public transit, and walkable areas that make situations like this mostly disappear. I should not have to own and pay for and maintain an expensive ass automobile, and I can’t wait to move so I can sell my car and not worry about being a part-time caretaker 24/7.

Issues with car dependency are everywhere unfortunately, and it makes me upset to see it cause so much damage
