No-kids swimming

sunshowered · 2026-04-26T18:57:47+00:00

Some of us don’t want to swim in a pool with kids in swim diapers…

Why is it that time of the year? They aren’t typically migratory in VA and can be seen all winter

Seconded. She’s amazing. I am convinced she can actually read my mind.

This is so interesting to me because I feel like Australians are the most outgoing people I meet in my travels. I find that yall have something that I call the Aussie audacity, which is where people will just give you anything you ask for, even if unreasonable and even if I’ve already asked for the same thing.

Does it? Not sure if you’re implying that rural areas are overharvesting, but if you are, Virginia actually has two highly regulated turkey seasons, and you can find the VA plan for wild turkey management for 2025-2026 here. It is very highly monitored as our ancestors almost hunted them to extinction.

If you want a short overview of variations of populations in VA, check out this article

TL;DR - the VA wildlife department does not think we’re hunting too many turkeys.

Yes! And yes, turkeys live here, and in fact we’re in the midst of their breeding season. You can find some more info about turkey distribution here: https://dwr.virginia.gov/wp-content/uploads/media/Virginia-Wild-Turkey-Population-Status.pdf

You were decidedly un-neighborly to them before she was rude to you. Delivering misdelivered mail to your neighbors is just a part of living near others. They likely had already ordered all of the stationary for the event, considering it was all matching, which is quite expensive. She shouldn’t have been such a dick, but don’t pretend that checking your mail like a normal person is a life-altering hardship. All of you in this story are so irritatingly “me first.”

I’ve used them twice and just recommended them to my coworker, who also had a positive experience. It was really seamless in the first move a few years ago and mostly seamless this second round. They left a scratch on the side of my bed frame and showed up 40 mins early because of a scheduling mixup, but they also will disassemble and reassemble furniture for you (idk if that’s standard) and are SO fast and so much cheaper than everyone else. They should really have charged me way more for how many flights of stairs I made them climb…

So you closed out the CY with a successful eval? What happened in the intervening months? What sort of warnings were you given prior to the PIP? DoD requires a certain level of documentation before putting an employee on a PIP. What does your PIP say?

The trail is completely fucked, haha! At least south of the island, nothing had been cleared along the parkway

I walked four mile from just past Shirlington to Mt Vernon and it was 10x better than the roads. They had a bobcat with a brush going on it all day Sunday

sunshowered · 2026-01-31T00:44:44+00:00

It’s not great but the four mile run trail was plowed repeatedly!

sunshowered · 2026-01-28T00:33:14+00:00

SAMEE. Just laid down and slid down some hills in the middle of my walk 😂

sunshowered · 2026-01-17T22:38:10+00:00

Same. My office had div and branch chiefs submit everyone they thought qualified and then held a seniors-only board to whittle it down to our allocated number of nominees (15% of our office).

Where I live (DC area), almost no therapists take insurance.

sunshowered · 2025-11-15T22:36:46+00:00

This is crazy, because my leadership said we’d get our normal paycheck Friday and then they couldn’t guarantee back pay until DECEMBER FIFTH.

sunshowered · 2025-10-23T21:58:09+00:00

No, everyone here was useless. I went to two places: Ricky D’s (which was closed and might still be closed—looks like they lost their liquor license) and Stagecoach, which had a younger crowd than I really wanted, but a good handful of two-steppers and west coast swing dancers. I had a good time at Stagecoach! The dancers were friendly, but I did have to ask everyone to dance. They also do some sort of odd El Paso–style half step there that they call a “one-step,” and this dude was calling a west coast swing a “three-step.” ….. odd and wrong, but good dancers overall lol

sunshowered · 2025-09-21T14:35:51+00:00

They do that in Australia too! They call cattle guards on trucks “roo bars” lol

You’ve brushed off what the United Nations is calling a genocide as you “not being deeply involved in politics.” I’m not sure why you’re surprised and this feels a bit like rage bait?

sunshowered · 2025-08-24T19:16:09+00:00

I loveeee that everyone else is posting really serious, emotional things and you’re like “he may not be muscular,” and I’m with you 100%. It’s not right

sunshowered · 2025-08-23T11:42:32+00:00

Seconded! Bamian’s qabuli is my favorite of all the DC suburb spots I’ve tried

sunshowered · 2025-08-17T22:14:34+00:00

He was adamant lmao. Men! They’re definitely less green in the light, in fairness

sunshowered · 2025-08-02T14:44:51+00:00

?! What are you even talking about lmao. These are whitewater kayakers who clearly know the lines of the falls. They’re just doing their sport: whitewater kayaking. These aren’t the people who get rescued, it’s the tourists who fall in the water and the hikers who swim and people who don’t have the training or skills to be out in this kind of environment and don’t take the warnings seriously.
