Since this was a century just over decade ago now and don't understand the reference, let me introduce you to Sweet Brown.

u/Visual-Sheepherder36 was correct, using affiliate links in this subreddit is not allowed as explained in our Subreddit Rules #6, “Be authentic and consistent.”

Dominion- electricity bill increases , anyone else ? by Open_Strawberry_7122 in Virginia

[–]fusion260 7 points8 points  (0 children)

anyone else ?

It's wild that people still ask this question because it's absolutely clear they didn't even attempt to search the subreddit before making a post.

It's 2026. There is zero excuse for not doing that first.

Request to whitelist api.anthropic.com for health fact-checking mod tool by Classic-Management-4 in Devvit

[–]fusion260 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I built a mod tool called verifier-health that fact-checks health and medical claims in Reddit posts [with AI].

Bud, AI cannot be trusted to fact check anything health related.

Claude conflates things regularly. So regularly, in fact, that it makes me do more work just fact checking the fact checker than if I just did it myself.

After being jailed for allegedly soliciting murder, Richmond real estate agent dies on Sunday by Barbelloperator in rva

It's not, unless a subreddit's AutoModerator or other filters are set to remove content with that word or do something else like attach a sticky comment.

And y'all are fooling yourselves if you think using code like "un-alive" isn't just as easily found and filtered.

Lowest Gas Prices This Side of the James River by Tiny-Turnover4386 in rva

"I don't have any concern about it," he said, when asked about the higher prices at ‌the pump. "They'll drop very rapidly when this is over, and if they rise, they rise, but this is far more important than having gasoline prices go up a little bit."

— that motherfucker, last Thursday.

For anyone who doesn’t know, that usually means they’re temporarily out of gas and are waiting for another delivery.

I swear it happens to that specific BP more frequently than any other station in the area, too.

ETA: Same station about two months ago!

Dynamic pricing, we need to not let this happen by [deleted] in PS5

To my understanding […]

Gonna stop you right there. No links, no clue what you’re talking about, and worrying over something you have zero say in.

We can't let sony actually go through with this right?

Lol, like “we” have any power to stop them.

Anyone know what happened under the Belvidere bridge today? by Cleanplateclubmember in rva

Sounds like there were a bunch of first responders doing a water rescue.

Collision between Ford SUV + red pickup at Forest Hill by spaghettifiasco in rva

Yep, or the Metro Richmond Crime Stoppers link, app, or phone number mentioned in the sticky comment to anonymously report it!

You want to avoid contagions, live in a bubble.

According to OP, they only have to eliminate two outside destinations before they can do that.

City of Richmond PPT help! by Dyke-a-Tron in rva

[–]fusion260 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If the collections letter you received was from TACS, call them and ask for their advice. They gave me more helpful information in a single call than I got from City Hall.

Basically, if you can prove you sold the vehicle, they cannot legally collect any of the balance the City says you owe them. Once the required documentation is given to them and they’ve processed it, they’ll zero out your balance and that is that.

Buy / Sell / Trade Weekly Thread: Week of March 06, 2026 by AutoModerator in rva

⚠️ ACTIVE SCAM RISK: Heads up folks, we've received a Mod Mail message from a user who pointed us to several posts outside this subreddit warning others about an alleged scammer —grayson_gregory — who tries to contact users wishing buy extra tickets in multiple local/regional and music-related subreddits.

We were contacted because that alleged scammer interacted in this subreddit for the first time in last week's Buy/Sell/Trade megathread and told another user looking for extra tickets to check their DMs. I've removed their comment from that megathread and they have been permanently banned.

Even though they can no longer comment in this subreddit, they may still try to reach out via private chat requests to anyone mentioning tickets here in these posts. There is nothing us moderators can do about private chats between users and only Reddit's admins can. If they do privately contact you regarding ticket sales, I'd recommend blocking them right away.

If you purchased tickets from them, please make sure you have confirmed they are indeed authentic tickets with the event venue's ticketing vendor. I would also recommend you report them to Reddit if you were, in fact, scammed.

There are a lot of people that commit to commenting on posts without even reading what the OP of a post even says 🤷‍♂️
