2nd and Charles has both an anime section and gaming section (video and board). They have 2 locations, one on broad street (closest to you) and one in midlothian (nice to go see their selection too occassionally).
They are a chain where you can buy and sell used items too!

> As someone who regularly has moved oversized loads down the back roads of this community, the bikes are a giant pain in the butt,
As someone who has been more inconvenienced by drivers moving large loads than I ever have by cyclists, maybe consider that you’re the bigger pain in the butt. However, does that give me the right to nearly kill you? Should I give a fuck about other people almost killing you or should I encourage them with “both sides” bullshit?

Because they would have said something like “she had a seizure or other medical issue causing her to swerve three fucking feet over.” Pay fucking attention to the road and stop making excuses for shitty drivers.

Did you itemize your deductions this year? VA requires you to take the state standard deduction if you took the federal standard deduction, but the state standard deduction is very small. If you itemized this year, that might have increased your deductions by $10k+ over the standard deduction and led to a higher refund.

I always try to get no refund but pay as little as possible as well. Most years I get close, not feeling too confident this year.

I've never had baggage lost at RIC but I worked at the Hudson News location in that airport for a while and spent quite a few 'lunch' breaks eating Fritos Honey BBQ Twists from the vending machine way down past all of the baggage claims. Sometimes with a Starbucks mocha energy drink, depending on the time of day and how many quarters I had in my pocket. The office where they deal with baggage issues is very small and sometimes, when lots of lost bags are being dealt with at once, they spill out of the office and the employees place stanchions around the pile of suitcases to corral them 'in'.

I think my mother in law goes to the VCU dental school and she’s on Medicare, I’m not positive if there’s different pools of availability between Medicare and Medicaid

GGMU!
I'll be watching at home, but I've been a long time MU supporter and have to say that Penny Lane, despite their shit taste in teams, is a great place to watch a game.

Agree, it's a bit of a ghost town in the off-hours of the day and you're on your own if you are tired or wishing for some coffee to help with jet lag or cheer you up when your bags are lost.

Honestly, RIC is a lovely local airport. Parking is cheap/efficient, and it’s pretty easy to fly in/out of. I don’t love that they don’t have a ton of convenient direct options, but that’s a personal issue.
Also as another user pointed out, there’s no food or retail after a certain point which can be frustrating when arriving or departing late at night.

I will toss on the hate for Botanya along w/the person above. I ordered an irish coffee from their dessert menu. Came in a teeny tiny coffee cup/not made in the traditional way. Could not taste the whiskey and asked our waitress if she served us plain coffee by mistake. Nope. For the $12, I should of just had another glass of wine.

Go to the courthouse and put your rent in escrow. Keep paying rent. If it was furnished when you moved in, they have to continue to furnish it.

So what, you expend the same amount of energy to come to bitch on Reddit? You’re like the one person besides the victim’s family still thinking about this.

There USED to be a gaming place called The Forge, but that closed during the first part of the Pandemic unfortunately. I've heard of two card places but have never been.

Battlegrounds
As for anime shops? I know Third Eye Comics (Mechanicsville and Short Pump) and a few other comic shops carry anime and manga related merchandise. There's also apparently a placed called BoxLunch in Bon Air that apparently seems interesting, but I haven't gone down that way yet.

Yeah, it's pointless. Still be cool to give someone a swift kick in the dick though.
