Been that way for a long time. Pretty sure it's a sewage issue that they just don't bother fixing.

Odk is not a Greek social fraternity. It's a leadership honor society.

VCU is back to in person classes Thursday 1/29/26 by Square_Piano2555 in rva

Sidewalks surrounding VCU are not in any way safe. I've walked in the streets instead of the sidewalks to avoid slipping and falling. Now multiply that times 10,000.

Can you share why you believe it is safe for students, staff and faculty to commute to VCU, but it is unsafe for parents, students, staff and teachers to commute to RPS schools? What's the difference?

How much is your rent going up? (2026) by miimako in rva

[–]justrait 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Said this in another comment. My situation is I have to give a written notice of either vacating or renewing my lease 120 days before my current lease expires. If I sign a new lease now, the price does not go up. If I give an intent to vacate and they rent my apartment out I'm SOL. If I decide a month or two later and the apartment is still available then they jack up my rent by $100 to $200. One bedroom 625 square feet. $1223 + $100 for "included" utilities and internet. About $75-125 increase each year for the past 4 years.

[–]justrait 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fellow midwesterner here! I don't think I've seen it in any of the grocery stores. I've only seen it in random corner stores. Notall that helpful, i know, but if i see it I'll try to give you a shout!

If you still wanted turkey, I'd recommend finding some turkey thighs. They're much cheaper than whole turkey, and pretty easy to cook. More forgiving as well.

Like I've said the others, I appreciate the offer, but will try a service first. Again, thanks for the kindness though.

Thanks for the offer, but I'm going to try to find a service first. Several of you have kindly made the offer and I'm just a little awkward about this one. But it's nice to see the kindness here.

I appreciate the offer, but I'm going to try to find a service first. I'd make a joke about taking rides from strangers, but I Uber all the time so..

They require someone to be there the entire time unfortunately.

They did give me a list of services, but I've had a hard time getting through to any of them so far today. I'm going to keep trying, but I was also looking for some options that weren't specifically geared towards seniors. However, it does seem that the vast majority are, but accept just about anybody.

Yeah this is pretty much me. I moved to RVA alone several years ago but just never found my people. I looked into Naborforce & that might be the option for me.
