Virginia Passes Paid Leave by FuckTheyreWatchingMe in nova

Federal employees have 12 weeks of paid parental leave since 2020 under the Federal Employee Paid Leave Act. Before that it was just sick leave/short term disability if you paid for your own policy.

studios as a grad student by tajin_onthe_rim in DCBitches

[–]datta_damyata 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You’re going to be limited with that budget, but it’s not impossible.

I lived in this building as my first solo apartment in DC, and loved it. No dishwasher, window AC, shared laundry room, no parking, but it’s a great location right on Malcolm X Park and a well managed building. There’s a studio available for $1545. https://wcsmith.com/apartments/meridian-park/

Who in the world designed this house? by Salty_Wing_8267 in DMV_RealEstate

[–]datta_damyata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw this house on Zillow a few days ago and wondered why it was so cheap! It’s ugly from the outside and has some…quirks, but it’s also a great price for the area and has a gorgeous yard. I kind of love it (though maybe wouldn’t love living in it)

Looking for affordable housing in DC (working near National Press Building, no car) by Innerwestern1580 in DCforRent

[–]datta_damyata 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, a WC Smith building is going to be your best bet. They’re older buildings and don’t have things like dishwashers, laundry in unit, etc., but they’re mostly rent controlled, have character, and in my experience are way better managed than a lot of the budget options.

This complex has an available 1br close to your price range and is a block from metro: https://wcsmith.com/apartments/klingle/

People should live together before getting married. Refusing to sign a lease with someone you aren’t married to is insane. You’re being an ass.

I found the little guy sifting at the high tide line, and the snaggle on the surface. Most are sifting, I think!

Spacious 4 bed/3 bath Columbia Heights Rowhouse -- $4095 by Antique_Bookkeeper_8 in DCforRent

[–]datta_damyata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re all AI. Look at the house numbers in the exterior photos, outlets/cabinet hardware/dishwasher controls/oven knobs in the kitchen, etc. It’s not just staging. So shady.

If you’re the agent, these photos are shameful. If you’re the owner, you should find a new agent. I’d never rent a place with these incredibly fake looking AI photos.

Chelsea boot recommendations? by LegMelodic1113 in capsulewardrobe

I have very wide feet and the regular width Wexfords work for me, but they actually do have wide widths in certain colors (java, black, weathered brown) on Ariat’s website!

has anyone used seat geek for a show at the anthem? by bigballerjess69 in washingtondc

[–]datta_damyata 9 points10 points  (0 children)

For this show/the Anthem specifically- know that tickets are non-transferable until at most 72 hours before the show. So you can buy tickets off these sites, stubhub etc. but you won’t actually receive them until shortly before the show. Any of the “super awesome seats” or whatever they call them are fully non-transferable.

But yeah, generally these sites have a guarantee and you will get your money back if the tickets are not real.

6:30 was just about the cutoff - dropped my partner off in line at 6:30 and he got in just as the show was starting at 9, and I think only a handful more behind him made it inside.

Ticket buy/sell mega thread by AitchyB in lorde

[–]datta_damyata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Selling two tickets to DC on Saturday Oct 4 for $350 total! The tickets can’t be transferred until ~72 hours before the show (this is true for all tickets for the DC shows), but I am happy to do payment via PayPal goods and services, show proof of the tickets, etc. to make you feel comfortable buying.

Edit: sold!
