City council prays before meetings in RVA. House and Senate of VA pray before session starts daily.
It's VERY strange tbh... but that's the gray of the world we live in - humans vote and humans want what humans want.
​
Keep voting.

And that’s a service that could be deployed without corruption and graft, but here we are. To answer your question, yes I have needed to call a tow for that purpose.

Headed to the grocery store on our way to Spotsy. Going to visit my grandparents and cook them dinner and help out around the house. Grandma's cancer just went into remission (kinda) and Pop is a 2x purple heart vet.

Good on you for trying to take that time for yourself.

I saw the early access Dungeons and Dragons movie last Sunday and I really enjoyed it! It was an overall fun movie with lots of nods to the game, but nothing that would alienate someone who was unfamiliar. For example, one character used a flaming green sword. I thought it looked cool. Afterwards, I found out that it's "a thing" in the game.
Gotta take OG cat for his pre-op workup this afternoon. That should be fun. He's a good car rider and patient at the vet, but omg getting him in the carrier is an ordeal.

Cancelled a credit card due to fraud and within about 12 hours of getting a new account number another damn California door dash order popped up as an authorized charge.
These scammers knew my new CC # before I did wtf

Has anyone suggested buying something from 711 first before running your errand?

Yeah, any sane Republican would try to distance themselves from the disaster that was Waco, so of course...

Remote work with some light housework sprinkled in throughout the day. Need to take an inventory of what's in the freezer and the pantry to start making the dinner meal plan for April.
I need to go pick up my Rx but The Pollening has begun...our parking lot is a subtle shade of yellowish-green.

My wife got diagnosed with this the other week. Really hope it gets nipped in the bud with some PT and weight training of some sort

Tyler Automotive on North Ave. is a good option. I have been repairing my cars for years. Now that I can no longer get under a car then back up reliably i have been taking my cars to them. Their diagnosis and fees for the work were exactly what I expected.

Reply to comment by fluufhead in CAR meets tomorrow to discuss removal of BustArt’s mural (info in comments) by nilsrva
They feel the bare brick is of more historical value within these specific areas
fluufhead t1_jdv5j0f wrote
Are they worried it's going to turn kids into furries or something? I'm struggling to understand what reasons one might have for wishing this mural to be removed.

I've been a rowhouse member for a year and a half I think. Hit my million meters the other month. Its a good workout for me.

They hooked up my car when I was in that 711 buying something. I showed my receipt, got the cashier to confirm, still would not drop my car if I didn't hand over $100. Called the store manager the next day and got a "it is what it is" response. This was about 10 years ago, before I knew what they were doing was illegal.

Hey all,
At long last the CAR is receiving public comments tomorrow starting at 3.30 over the question of whether or not BustArt’s mural in Jackson Ward should be allowed to stay. I am very appreciative of the many of you who have written emails to the board already. Tomorrow however will be the deciding day, and the greatest impact you can have will be to show up in person or on MicrosoftTeams via this link
Here is the wall before and here is the wall after
Feel free to still write alex.dandridge@rva.gov with your comments, although I do not know how effective that will be. I am considering taking your comments are presenting them, so if anyone would like to say something but can not attend please drop me a DM with your comment, name, and address (internet strangers mean nothing to them, name/addy adds legitimacy)
In the interest of full disclosure I will also be arguing on behalf of my own right to paint a mural on a location in Church Hill, completely unrelated to BustArt’s mural. BustArt is a friend of mine, and it is via me and this sub that the homeowner was connected to him- however I did not paint this mural and it is not an artwork of mine.

Back to work.
Remote work is wearing on me. The idea of spending the rest of my career on zoom calls just depresses me.
On the other hand when I search for software engineering jobs in Richmond I'm not very excited by what I find. (Go ahead and call me too picky; the fact is our tech industry is simply not as developed as other markets)

You can't take care of others if you don't take care of yourself. Hope you feel better after your therapy today.
