Not op but in the past 15 years and two houses, we replaced flooring 3 times. We used Floor Trader right outside Henrico/Goochland for the first home. Spent money and did costen floors when we sold that home. We recently used luxury vinyl plank at Floor and Decor for our new house. If you are able to, installing flooring is very simple. It saves us thousands of dollars by just doing it ourselves. The only downside is that it takes longer (it was just the wife and I and no experience).

With 10 cities worth of garbage dumped on top to blow around in the wind.

Not many options for kids and this way we'll at least all be together.

Took our leftovers and untouched meals to the homeless in front of Arthur Ashe Center. They took everything, enjoyed it and were much appreciative.

If you look at data, the north is actually more segregated in schools and housing than the south.

Recovery being vague is kind of the thing. Richmond is always viewed in a lens as “recovering” from something. Civil war, reconstruction, world wars, “economic troubles” of various varieties, our “troubled past.”
On the one hand, it’s good because we always seem to get a little bit of a pass. On the other, it’s really fucking condescending. “Aw, look at this little city, it’s so cute how they have these adorable cafes and microbreweries even though just yesterday they were a bunch of murder capital racist drug corridor confederates!” These articles read with the same good natured superiority as when you compliment a little kid for being dad’s big helper working on the deck.

lmao so condescending and self-satisfied
>> “Visitors to Virginia’s capital will find a Monument Avenue devoid of Confederate statues, a lively dining scene featuring Black-owned restaurants, and exhibitions that take on the city’s complicated past.”
what American city doesn’t have a ‘complicated past’ especially with issues of race and deeply-entrenched systemic racial inequality? looking right at you, new york city, especially your schools, your cops, and your jails/prisons. what a bunch of smug shallow liberal pat-on-the-back hogwash that has absolutely no critical value. good riddance to the monuments, but fuck you, NYT.

Hi! My partner and I are planning a move, and Richmond is currently our #1 choice! We are curious about safety in the Fan neighborhood, and whether we can find something that fits our budget. We are both remote DC workers, and have a cash budget of up to 900k for a starter home, maybe more if we finance :) Where is the best brunch in RVA? Also, how is the school district? We are currently DINK, and if we do have children we will probably send them to private school- I am only asking really because I hate poor children and want to talk about it. Thank you, we cannot wait to make Richmond our forever home!

That was the last RAW where Vince McMahon was still dead... as Chris Benoit was about to lose the last pieces of his sanity in the week ahead.
