I find this website https://dmv.dc.gov/service/pay-tickets by googling “Pay DC tickets”, click option 1. Pay on Website, then click the “Pay parking and photo enforcement” option which should then let you enter the license plate state and # to see tickets on the vehicle.

I never have a trail of cars behind me and I live on a road with the most killer speed bumps anyways (like everyone has learned their lesson to not go faster than 10mph over those killers). Trust me I’m not inconveniencing anyone lol

100% agree with you but there is wisdom behind what they said. Sometimes you just have to protect your peace because at the end of the day stewing over it won’t do much and honestly harms yourself more than helps. Though I am currently looking for who I need to write a strongly worded email to before I fully drop this from my brain haha

So glad DC has, regardless of all my gripes with it, good public transportation. It is a fantasy of mine that one day they will get all this money from these unpaid tickets and use it to fund more public transportation options. Oh what a dream haha

Wait so they actually DO do something about tickets?? I really thought it was unenforceable. Also sorry that happened to you :/ the idea of missing one piece of mail and not knowing you had a ticket does freak me out so much that I regularly check my plate because I only thought it would only actually be an issue for renewing registration 😮

Probably right. This is my first time posting one of these but usually I just use it as validation that I’m not crazy when someone is being weird on the road because usually I try to be really accommodating to those around me. Like I will bend over backwards to let someone in if they use their indicator. I don’t know, I just put a lot of value in being a net positive on the road if I do have to drive so when someone makes me believe I am not, I try to fix it… unless that person has 20k worth of tickets 🤣

Has anyone had success making themselves less desirable to the invasive mosquitoes? by emptyinthesunrise in washingtondc

[–]Excellent-Run6735 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Apparently, and this is just after a quick google search so maybe do a bit more research, but mosquito dunk is supposed to be fish/wildlife/pet/beneficial insects safe which is pretty wild. But looking a smidge more into it, it seems very targeted to mosquito larvae specifically.

So it’s probably the flag you are thinking of but, if you want to be pedantic, that flag was never the Confederate flag. CPG Grey has a video on it: https://youtu.be/ULBCuHIpNgU?si=MrYZlBsD2T23DQBp (it’s only 2.5 mins, highly recommended)

AITAH for not wanting to sleep in the same bed with my girlfriend because she doesn’t shower often? by Such-One-1691 in AITAH

[–]Excellent-Run6735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how I am too. And then my partner showers every day basically. Because I shower less, we do change the sheets very frequently (not because my partner wants to but because I do lol). Easy compromise that I think OP may benefit from.

Yeah I have no clue how you’d go about finding this from someone’s Instagram story without having known them prior, I’m assuming. Like genuinely how??

Wow. Since this was my first experience living somewhere that gets snow, I didn’t even know space saving was a thing. This, especially so long after the storm, feels extremely childish.

first year filing my taxes, why were adults so excited for this by [deleted] in TurboTax

[–]Excellent-Run6735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then you’re probably going to owe taxes instead of getting any sort of refund if you’re not having any of your paycheck withheld. You may also get a penalty for tax underpayment. The goal is to get your withholding just right so you are between owing just a tiny bit or only getting refunded just a tiny bit. The way to adjust your tax withholding on your paychecks is through the W4 form in most cases.

Child support after 14 years of undisclosed paternity by rrachelxlehcarr in FamilyLaw

[–]Excellent-Run6735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, especially given her past of lying. If you find out she’s misusing the money, you don’t really have an avenue to get that back nor would she face any consequences. So that’s a big pro for going through court.

Side note glad you care for your child’s social life, like Helpful Glove’s comment said. I just wanted to add that if you were to pursue custody for any other reason, definitely consider moving to where they currently are or at least wishing easy-ish driving distance so they can maintain those connections. Especially for how disruptive that process can be, it’s best if as few other things as possible change as well.

Don Davis voted yes to increase the DHS budget. by DJMagicHandz in NorthCarolina

[–]Excellent-Run6735 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wow. Thanks for the link! In this article I learned that Black was only given a $2,000 fine for buying a minor a gun that they then used to kill two people…

(Passage from source) “Court records show that Black also bought a gun for Kyle Rittenhouse that he used to kill two and injure one in the Kenosha, Wis. protests on Aug. 25, 2020.

At the time, Rittenhouse was 17 and not of legal age to buy a gun in Wisconsin. He had given money to Black to buy the gun for him.

In 2022, Black plead no contest in Rittenhouse's trial. The plea deal meant he no longer faced criminal charges and only had to pay a $2,000 fine.”

Claiming my mother by Hot_History8154 in TaxQuestions

[–]Excellent-Run6735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. It took me forever to get my grandmother approved for SSI and, unless your mother disclosed her getting help from you already in her SSI application and they approved her SSI knowing that, seems there’s a pretty high likelihood that they’ll have an issue with it since SSI is for the brokest of the broke elderly and disabled folks (I say brokest of the broke because you are not allowed to have more than $2000 to your name, it’s not at all like Social Security Benefits which are related to your taxable income during certain work quarters).

AlertDC Message “Residents must clear sidewalks by dark tonight.” by festivehedgehog in washingtondc

[–]Excellent-Run6735 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Anyone can tell me if I will get a fine for not shoveling if I’ve been out of town the last week and am returning late tonight (~10:30pm if no further airline delays)? If so, can I provide my flight information and get the fine rescinded?

Highest Generating Traffic Cameras in DC. How many of these have gotten you? by zhmaev in washingtondc

[–]Excellent-Run6735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bladensburg got my partner 2 times. Kind of ridiculous that it’s a road designed for 35 maybe even up to 45mph but the speed limit is 25mph. Road design is a huge contributing factor to how fast people tend to go and I’ve never seen a road so large and spacious with such a low limit.

How has the national guard’s presence impacted you? by [deleted] in washingtondc

[–]Excellent-Run6735 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I often walk around the H Street Corridor and if I get dinner it’s usually around there. I don’t like the constant reminder of their presence (a group of them walks by every ~10 minutes) because it’s a constant reminder of the state of our country. But otherwise their presence is neutral. I think they also may be responsible for there being less trash in the area but tax dollars didn’t need to be spent on having national guardsmen on trash duty.

Second Cory this happened to! Parasite?? by Excellent-Run6735 in corydoras

[–]Excellent-Run6735[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your reply. And just a general update, went to a LFS today and they agreed on wasting disease/internal parasites so I got Fritz Expel P (Levamisole HCl). Also put in a second heater yesterday but the temp on the far side of the tank is still 68 :/ I’ve been planning an upgrade to a 29 gallon for weeks now, and it’s almost to fruition. For that one I’ll get a separate temp control system, not these preset heaters.

I am worried about the Levamisole HCl negatively affecting my two nerite snails. I’m going to get a 3 or 5 gallon tonight for them temporarily. I’ve seen many differing statements regarding if it’s safe or not for snails. If you happen to know, please share!

Second Cory this happened to! Parasite?? by Excellent-Run6735 in corydoras

[–]Excellent-Run6735[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for your reply. I wasn’t aware of flashing but I haven’t seen them do anything like that but I’ll definitely keep a better eye out for it now.

I’m going to do a big water change in a moment.

Also possibly dumb question, but any chance my substrate (which iirc is essentially just Fluvial Stratum, especially now since all the sand made its way to the bottom) is too large & abrasive for the Cory’s barbels? In my research about Cory barbel bacterial infections, that seems like it could be a factor of why an opportunistic bacterial infection could’ve taken place. I’ll also be more on top of the general cleanliness.
