I just went, pretty fun. I drove up to park at Nova and then took the metro up. I wouldn’t drive around the city. I think it’s beautiful and worth seeing once, especially if you view some Smithsonian’s.

Really? I was quoted almost $4 grand for just a liner from Cougot's then an additional $600 each for "repairing and sealing the mortar crown" and replacing the cap.

This is the Way. I have spoken, Shut and take my money, etc. etc.,

Wawa Mac and Cheese, this is not a joke.

grew up in DC area, cant say its worth the hassle with a kid that small, wait a couple years. Get a hotel near by just walk around when they're old enough.

It is a permanent solution that is much less invasive than replacing/repairing a sewer line. Very little digging involved. Works great - but is expensive.

The service is fine but if you ever need help with any issue ever you’ll be put through hell on earth speaking to their support

Show up to the parking lot and drink. Also bring your own porta potty.

Agreed. I bought a suit a few years ago for a presentation from there and with vest and all, it came in around $275-$290ish

I’m assuming Potomac Mills

I was at men’s warehouse the other day and they had full suits on clearance for like $120. Get that, and then get it tailored. They’ll make it look great. Good luck!

Pho So 1 on Broad

You go to the grassy hill facing the road, drink, and dispose of your cans responsibly.

You follow the people in front of you very very closely.

Spicy bite with nacho cheese from 7-11 and tall boy peeber

This or suit supply were my first thought

What’s PM?

No but N burger might be

You must be a devoted burger lover to 2 hour round trip

Matzo ball soup from Pearlys.

A friend at Yale medical told my brother to go inpatient/emergency to get a path into the system. Ended helping my nephew get what he needed faster which included outpatient ketamine and eventually ECT which has done miracles. He's 21 and way behind in college, but he's alive.

I love this question

Chicken soup from Chicken Fiesta. Also maybe a tamal de elote or cheese nachos.

Depending on insurance or funding you might consider intensive outpatient (IOP) or partial hospitalization (Tucker offers both but there is likely one in the area your brother lives in). Both require daily travel or participation in services so commuting from Portsmouth to Richmond may not be sustainable for that.

You can also reach out to your local community services board (https://www.portsmouthva.gov/149/Behavioral-Healthcare) and inquire about services and supports. If he doesn't have medicaid or insurance he can apply but the public health emergency period is winding down and the lessened medicaid restrictions are ending, which means some people are going to stop being eligible. There may also be local non-profits that can help but I'd suggest starting with the CSB as that is in their wheelhouse. Not everyone (esp. adults) will qualify for all services though. Some, like case management, have specific requirements and funding needs. It is a painfully broken system but if you get the right person they can help you navigate it.

If he has insurance you might call to speak to a care coordinator/navigator and see if they can make recommendations or referrals. Another option is to check out https://www.hrchc.org, which is a federally qualified health center, they also seem to offer behavioral health support. FQHC programs, like this one, can often be a starting point in seeking help...esp. if there is no PCP or other health care provider linked to treatment or care.

Spier & Mackay. Great suits for the price. They have the basics which start at $300. Avoid black.

I always recommend them for people on a budget and have a number of items myself.
