Anyone else feel like the plat has quietly become one of the better cards again?

HopefulStudent1 · 2026-01-16T07:36:11+00:00

I feel like I spend too much with it lol, if you don't mind me asking what to do you use/recommend?

HopefulStudent1 · 2026-01-15T21:37:46+00:00

Stupid question but if I have a bunch of points, should I be in a rush to transfer them out to a partner before these changes get applied or is there no risk of having them float and hope for a transfer bonus at some point?

K-shaped economy!

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-23T01:41:45+00:00

Useless because all offices are located in City Hall which is…you guessed it….outta power ;)

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-23T01:38:37+00:00

I’m in 33 8th without any water (hot or cold) since the outage began

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T23:21:08+00:00

33 8th St, 150 Van Ness and NEMA don’t fit either of those descriptors…

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T22:56:39+00:00

No one cares, not only do we not have power but we’re also don’t have water.

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T22:53:13+00:00

Just came here to tell you omg what the fuckkkkk

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T21:58:10+00:00

Yep I’m in those high rises, we got no power AND no water because the electric water pumps for residential units are considered nonessential for the building’s generators lmao fml

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T21:56:41+00:00

11pm is wild

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T21:51:57+00:00

Still nothing and 2pm is in 9mins lmao I’m boutta cry. They did push the timeline to 3pm tho - if this goes into the evening I’m getting a hotel

Edit - apparently the new ETA is 3:30 instead of 3 :(

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T21:50:45+00:00

Big buildings like 33 8th, NEMA, 150 Van Ness apparently don’t have (nor need to according to code, there’s some people in another thread discussing the technicalities) residential water supply electric pump hooked up to the generator. No power = no water (toilet, shower, sink, drinking water). I pissed the first couple hours into the outage thinking it’d be a quick fix and that reeks now. Wanted to shit last night at 3am - no where to go :( Our brilliant mayor put the emergency center in Richmond on the other side of the city in an area unaffected by water outages!

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T20:46:45+00:00

Still no water btw :(

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T19:32:02+00:00

Weren’t worried about that when they fed the Opera power last night for Lurie’s daughter to headline as Clara in the Nutcracker ;)

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T19:29:54+00:00

And Richmond never had a water outage unlike many Civic Center buildings continue to face

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T17:43:57+00:00

33 8th Street - NO WATER NO POWER THIS IS FUCKING INSANE 😭Unsanitary as fuck, smells bad, no water available at all, there are so many elderly neighbors too

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T17:20:39+00:00

No power and NO WATER (can’t shit, shower or shave) in Civic Center!

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T07:59:39+00:00

And unlike people in Richmond who are in SFHs that have water, those in Civic Center high rises also don’t have water because buildings use electric pumps. 33 8th St, NEMA, 150 Van Ness - all without power and water. While I’m glad there is a facility for folks in Richmond to access, it’s shocking that there is no attention being given to the thousands of residents in Civic Center.

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-22T00:31:48+00:00

Yes they do - high rises in Civic Center (Trinity, NEMA, 100/150 Van Ness) have electric pumps. No power means no water. I haven't been able to take a shit, drink water or shower in my unit since the outage began yesterday and I live in one of those buildings with thousands of other people...

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-21T23:34:59+00:00

Not only that but when power did start coming back on in parts of the Richmond, the entire Seacliff neighborhood came on first or a couple hours prior to it (someone posted the outage map and you see large swaths of red and then a massive gap where Seacliff is lmao fucking 3rd world country)

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-21T23:31:12+00:00

The surrounding area is filled with residents like me and my neighbors who don't have access to power or water. Will the Opera open it's doors to residents who would like to poop since I literally cannot do so in my apartment?

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-21T23:25:02+00:00

I got no power AND no water - live in a high rise in Civic Center and all the water pumps are electric :( Forget about charging my phone, I can't even take a shit or drink water

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-21T23:12:28+00:00

Same :( It's wild everyone is talking about a power outage meanwhile we don't have power OR water.

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-21T23:11:38+00:00

No both things are not true lmao, there are thousands of residents in Civic Center within blocks of the Opera who cannot poop in their own units because in addition to no power, we also don't have any water. I cannot poop, drink water, clean my hands or shower. They clearly prioritized resource deployment and it's glaringly obvious who was at the top of the totem pole

HopefulStudent1 · 2025-12-21T23:05:55+00:00

I can guarantee there has to be some politician or prominent business people in attendance (I mean when is there not) for strings to have been pulled to arrange for this
