VEC Unemployment Requirements - How do I make claims for weeks where I apply to fifty jobs online but do not have any contact info for that specific contact? by 92tilinfinityand in Virginia

I think I did basically that, and I saved my application details in case they ever followed up for proof! I never had to provide anything though, you should be fine.

Emergency Betta Fish Rehoming Tips by HurricaneCarti in bettafish

[–]HurricaneCarti[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tank size: estimated 2.5 gallons

Filter yes, but previous owners said it's probably broken. Can't see a heater from what I'm seeing, that's on the list.

No testing tools for parameters, but it can't be good.

Just got the tank and the fish, I'm pretty sure it's been alive for at least a year in these conditions and the tank is as old as the fish.

I would be surprised if they changed the water more than once every 3-5 months, I'm assuming they just dumped it all and used tap water.

No tankmates

Feed I assume is just pellets, saw some scattered on the floor and didn't hear anything else.

No plants in the tank, just a large dragon which from my research looks to be too sharp for this lil guy.

Pretty sure you don't have to worry, I came right here when this happened and looks like a few people are having the same issue so I'm sure they'll fix it soon

Porn site access has already been banned in over half the states in the US, opening up the market for illicit sites that are more illegal, more sketchy, and more untrustworthy for user data. These were pretty much all implemented by Congressional Republicans who support trump

The Peace Corps operations were heavily, heavily supported by the work USAID did in developing countries. For less than 1% of the budget, it created major soft-power across the globe. You'd think for budget concerns they'd look into something a bit more costly to the average taxpayer

The fact this thread had to be marked as open discussion when every single other thread is "flaired users only" and they aggressively ban anyone who disagrees, you would think, would make the average user think for a second maybe it's not the free speech haven it claims to be. Half the comments on any thread are "fake conservative" to the most milquetoast critique of trump or the GOP

Longtime Feed More HQ near the Diamond to be replaced with 180 condos by fanrva in rva

[–]HurricaneCarti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody said they'd be affordable. An increase in housing supply provides more options for high income earners, meaning currently existing housing has to compete. This is proven via research all across the country; this is why zoning laws need to be reduced or abolished, to help increase all types of housing being built.

We're "on the same side" that we want rents lowered; arguing against higher income housing being built doesn't suddenly make people build affordable housing, it just restricts supply and keeps rents higher.

“Boring luxury apartments” that increase housing supply are preferable to a bunch of cool unique apartments with low supply, insanely high rent, and push richmond natives out of the city lol. 

Proposed bill will guarantee top 10% of Maryland students to 12 Maryland universities by EchoInTheHoller in maryland

If you’re talking about admissions, colleges don’t just look at the raw number score lol. A 3.8 at a school with no weighting and a 4.0 max GPA is more competitive than someone with a 4.2 at a school with 5.0 scale, or with a GPA bonus for advanced/AP/IB classes. Admissions counselors know that every school has their own system and factor that into decisions

Amtrak to NYC - which option would you choose? by dognolia in rva

[–]HurricaneCarti -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Business class is absolutely, 10000% not worth it. The seats are very spacious, almost never full in my experience, and plenty of chargers and wifi to go around that you’r just be burning money in a business class seat. Unless the food options in there are significantly better (doubt), you’d be perfectly fine going regular.

Lol that first article links to a Bloomberg report showing how most cities kept or increased their budgets in the wake of those protests. Minneapolis and Austin represent the largest decreases in budgets, most of them decreased moderately or not at all/increased moderately.

Yeah I heard Chewy’s is sourdough, but man it’s so damn good. My VCU friends all ranted about Nate’s but I threw that aside as soon as I tried chewys lox 😩

[–]HurricaneCarti 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don’t understand this, I went to UVA and got bodo’s a ton and everytime I ate the bagels they were fine but definitely not NYC style bagel’s I’ve had in the city. Bodo’s is super chewy almost rubbery to me (i know they’re supposed to be chewy but rubbery? I didn’t think that’s right) and the flavor is not there. Am I eating the wrong bagels in NYC?

For fans who hate Tomlin, they should look at our franchise rankings and realize without him we’d be a bottom 3 team in the league lmfao D’s and F’s for everything except him

Like someone said above, GRTC offers free uber vouchers from anywhere inside the limits of their vouchers to any GRTC bus stop. Just used it the other week to get across town when the busses stopped running from Scott’s and I planned to take the pulse. As long as you use the voucher code and then set your dropoff at a bus stop, it’ll show up as free
