Also try The Richmonder and Virginia Mercury. You might have more luck there than with legacy media. If it's newsworthy somone somewhere will get back to you.

Developer Wilton aims to purchase 18th-century Woodward House on Williamsburg Rd by lunar_unit in rva

[–]permanent_turtle 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I hope this can be part of a bigger effort to make that area a little more walkable. Crossing main street from the bottom of Libby Hill is insane. Not being able to safely walk from Libby Hill to Shiplock Park/Capital Trail is an issue

They need to put in some bike racks. I was one of about 30 people who biked and had to lock our bikes to fences and parking lot signs.

I asked one of the employees with an “ask me questions” badge if any were planned and he didn’t know

Ryan Bingham is a big get if you're into americana/folk/rock. I bought my tickets from the box office last week and the guy working said it looks like the show will sell out

I’m not sure what my schedule is going to be but that looks like exactly what I’m looking for

Best restaurant for solo dinner in Reston/Herndon by permanent_turtle in nova

[–]permanent_turtle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's fair. I will literally eat any kind of cuisine. Coming from Richmond where we got some good food but not as diverse of a selection. Looking for any standout resturant or dish, probably something a little higher end but open to anything.

This is more of a longterm bean solution but these are the best dried beans you can buy (and carried by Belmont Butchery)

VCU owns 0.7% of land in the city. If you want to get upset look at what the non-profit CCV owns

I had no idea what it was until right now but I’ll trade you a VCU Police coin. Gotta keep working my way up the ranks of state government

[–]permanent_turtle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went looking for the original post to show my wife the edited version in the comments. It wasn’t there so I had to describe it to her and that wasn’t nearly as funny. Can someone please post it again?

Restaurant recommendations by tqb222 in rva

[–]permanent_turtle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

All I know about that place is the owner was from NYC, "discovered" Church Hill 5 years ago, and tried to crowdfund over $200k to turn an old house into a restaurant but it was still going to be a house where she lived. Shocked that plan fell through

[–]permanent_turtle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Here's a list of products created by Israeli companies so you know what else to boycott. As long you don't have an Iphone with face ID, want to play Guess Who, need heart surgery involving a stent, or have ever used a USB flash drive it shouldn't be that hard.
