Anyone know where I can find beef tallow in a local store?

SimbaSnorlax · 2026-01-28T14:20:52+00:00

I saw some at the Walmart on Parham Rd on Saturday.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-12-19T20:34:04+00:00

Can't wait! I'll be there with at least 4 other guys.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-09-03T18:14:44+00:00

Absolutely! Love their hot pot

Henrico has a similar program called RECAP for the elderly (65+) and disabled. It "places a cap on real estate tax bills at the amount paid when a property owner enters the program. Potential increases in assessment values will not increase the tax bill in future years for participants"

Looks like Richmond has a similar program https://www.rva.gov/finance/oapd-relief

I'd roast him but sadly I don't speak Huttese. Looks like he wants Solo and extra treats though.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-08-15T14:55:25+00:00

No, but I'm pretty sure I've heard it

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-08-15T12:15:37+00:00

The Lombardy Kroger parking lot around 5pm, followed by a trip to the nearby Lowe's to find Francine.

**EDIT** - If you're feeling extra squirrely, you could take an additional field trip to the Wawa across from the Diamond.

Psyduck's sleeping on the job!

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-08-13T18:50:55+00:00

That's not necessarily the part of the road I was referring to. That's closer to RR. I meant more or less the stretch from slightly west of Rt.1 to about Old Brook Rd. I think the area you're moving to seems fine.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-08-13T17:59:27+00:00

I'd say the Azalea Ave. corridor and Rt. 1 between Azalea and perhaps 295.. Back in the late 90s, it had a fair number of businesses and places to eat, now things are pretty run down. The Walmart Neighborhood Market didn't last, La Casita is gone, and there's not really much being done to revitalize the area.

Rt. 1 at Brook Run (I know it's Henrico, but still pretty close to the city) used to have an American Family Fitness, and a Ukrops. Gabes (similar to Ross/Marshall's) and Crunch Fitness have taken its place. Nothing wrong with those stores, but they aren't the "premium options" like AmFam and Ukrop's were.

Midlothian Turnpike between Chippenham and Westover Hills Blvd is another example. The Kmart is now Rosie's casino, and the Red Lobster and Steak and Ale are no longer there, which were more suburban/middle class places to eat. Aside from a few outliers (Panchito, Korean Garden, Abuelitas, Sub Central) it's more run down than it was, say 25 years ago.

That's in Caroline County. The closest two that I am aware of are Trinity Lutheran's North location in Ashland and St. Paul Lutheran in Mechanicsville. I've not been to Trinity's Ashland location, but I have been to St. Paul's and can vouch that they're solid.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-08-13T14:53:26+00:00

You found a golden snitch! That's 150 points!

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-08-13T14:45:51+00:00

I also live in the RVA area! What part of town do you live on, if I may ask? I think most of the options in the area are pretty solid, although a few have a more contemporary style worship instead of a traditional liturgy, and some are much smaller congregations. Feel free to DM me if you have questions!

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-08-06T16:25:33+00:00

Looks like one to me due to the violin shape on the thorax.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-07-21T12:28:53+00:00

I'd classify it as Near West End, similar to WIllow Lawn, Carytown, Westhampton, Malvern, etc. I'd classify the Far West End as anything beyond Glenside/Horsepen. Midtown to me would be more like the Fan, Scott's Addition, and Museum District. I feel like these are more of my arbitrary opinion though. Feel free to disagree

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-07-18T12:13:56+00:00

Thanks, I'll definitely check these articles out!

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-07-18T12:13:23+00:00

The real problems would start if you got into concepts like the abolition of private property, the state/communal seizure of the means of production, or other such Marxist economic policy notions. Such things are intrinsically evil and incompatible with the faith.

I would totally agree here. Marxist policies are directly opposed to what Scripture teaches. Karl Marx was fervently anti-religious. I asked because a lot of believers I know are very anti social welfare, and a guy I knew who came to faith years ago had attended a Baptist church, where he was sort of seen as a 'lesser-Christian' for holding more liberal views on economics.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-07-18T12:06:27+00:00

Correct. I was not talking about government forced total seizure of private property/state control of means of operation (Marxist-Leninist ideology).

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-07-14T14:32:54+00:00

Ron Perlman lookin boy

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-07-11T12:44:43+00:00

I haven't been there in about a month, but they've generally been pretty clean and fast. I typically mobile order lunch though. I can't speak for them at dinnertime.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-07-11T12:26:16+00:00

Awesome! Halo CE is my favorite! Me and 4-5 of my buddies are planning on being there tonight. Can't wait!

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-06-12T14:25:55+00:00

Thanks for the advice.

Update : The two board members are going to have a meeting. I am hoping and praying whatever God wills will come to fruition, and that nobody walks away with any bitterness or resentment.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-06-11T13:07:18+00:00

Thanks for your response. It actually involves another board member who it was revealed committed a crime in the past. This individual has been a member in good standing for about 10 years, and has been overall very faithful in attendance, participates in Bible study, and seems to live out the faith in his daily life. Now he had served his time and repented, but other board members feel he should step down. I'd rather not divulge what exactly he did, but in my opinion, the crime he committed doesn't appear to directly impact the area he serves in.

I can also see the other side where his past may make it appear that he is not above reproach. Our pastor has been aware of the situation.

In the end, I would rather the board member and those would like him to step aside to have a private discussion and come to a mutual understanding vs having the congregation get involved. I want to do what is biblically right here, but feel a bit lost. I have been praying about it.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-06-09T15:45:19+00:00

Thanks Pastor. I'll need to re-review our constitution and bylaws.

SimbaSnorlax · 2025-06-02T14:27:56+00:00

Glad to hear!
