I have a hold at the dmv because of the car tax. My car registration has been expired since June and I don’t have the money to pay the tax. Will the hold follow me if I try to register my car in DC or MD

Got station at fort Belvoir and wondering what apartments are recommended ? I was looking at Abbotts run apartment home for now. Preferably safe / gated apartments if there are any

I swear I smell it from multiple cars on a daily basis.

Edit: Consensus is yes, in which case can I call the cops on these people driving under the influence?

It is my wife's birthday. She wants vegan cannolis. Where can I get them from? I'm not asking about general desert places (like sticky fingers), I'm talking about a genuine vegan cannoli.

Additionally. Does anyone know anywhere we could interact with a pigeon or hamster. She loves them, but we don't have the space to own one. It would be great if she could just hang with one for a bit, like a pigeon rescue or something? Idk. Mostly need a cannoli rec.

Anyone know what is going on in Pentagon City right now? Saw a convoy going on 395S and at least two dozen police cars with lights and sirens driving around PC.

I am against firing massive amounts of government workers for both moral and practical reasons.

But do you all think it will at least help with this areas housing crisis? We have quite low vacancy rates.

Based on these Malls: Tyson’s Mall Springfield Mall Fair Oaks Mall Pentagon Mall Potomac Mills Mall

Which do you think is the best to worst? Why?

Hello does anyone have recommendations for real estate planning lawyers? My mom owns a small home and wants to make sure everything is legally taken care of with proper will and documents to ensure the city doesn’t get involved shall she pass anytime. There is no will or nothing so she is starting from scratch with the process. She wants to ensure a smooth process and she also needs advice on what she could do with her home. Any guidance or recommendations would be helpful thanks . Based in Alexandria.

Then again…what is normal now?

I’ve been trying to get in touch with the PRCS and Capitals to find out why sport court is being removed and replaced with concrete but no answers are coming back. It really sucks!

I moved to Northern VA a few months ago from Austin, TX. There is a large community of sober/sober curious people—festivals, events, concerts, sports leagues, supper clubs, etc. I haven't found that here so far and am hoping for some suggestions. I'm not looking for a 12-step group; instead, I'm looking for groups that get out and enjoy all the things the area has to offer, sans drinks. Bonus points for groups for women.

deploying soon and looking for a property management.

Hey,

Has anyone ever ate @ Ellie Bird? I've got a date tonight, and I wanna know if there are any items that would be bomb to order for myself and my date.

Thanks!

I am a ride share driver. It is normal for me to get ride requests to and from hospitals. 90% of the time it is an employee that is going to or from work. Every once in a while I will get a patient pickup that was ordered by insurance.

Last weekend I received a request for a pickup at the INova facility in Ashburn. The ride is going to Leesburg.

I arrive and two security guards come out of the building with two full trash bags of someone’s belongings and they put them in the trunk of my car. Then they go back in and escort a man with a walker out to the car. He looks to be in his 70’s. His appearance is very disheveled and it is very apparent that he has not bathed in a long time.

I started the ride and confirm the address. He asks if it is near the Walmart. I say I don’t know. Along the way he states that he is very confused. I empathize with him and assure him that we will arrive to the destination in a few minutes.

As we pull up to the address, I notice that it is a homeless shelter. I get the man’s belongings out of the trunk. I take his walker to him and take his bags to the front door of the shelter.

I ring the bell. A person answers and I tell them that I have a drop off and ask someone to come to the door. The door has cameras aimed at it. I hear the person talking to a co-worker. I hear them say “it’s the same guy that was here earlier”, referring to my passenger. They then state that they do not take walk-ins and that I have to take him back to the hospital. I tell them no. No I don’t have to do that. I have completed my contract with Lyft and I am leaving. Have a good night.

I proceed to get in my car, complete the ride, and leave.

I filed a report with Lyft that I was concerned with a passenger. I did all that I could have and should have done.

But shame on INova for doing this and shame on the homeless shelter. Shame on both of you for not coordinating. Shame on both of you for bringing in a third party and then trying to put it back on me.

I hope that all parties that were involved in every aspect of this man’s care have the day that you deserve. You are all jerks for doing this.

Edit: When I was younger I was a Firefighter III in Montgomery County, MD. I have a lot of experience and training evaluating and treating people.

Also, medical rides booked by hospitals appear in the driver app differently. It is not an obvious difference, but ones that I am able to pick up on after driving ride share part time for 10 years. This ride was booked under the passengers (patients) account. It was his first ride on the Lyft platform. Someone went through the trouble of creating him his own account. There were no social services involved.

Last but not least, I get it. I understand from both the perspective of the hospital and the shelter. My issue is involving a third party thinking that you found a solution to the issue. Disgraceful.

Anyone know anyone who makes costumes? I like to cosplay anime characters and am looking to get a custom made costume.

What are the best low-key places to do career networking in Northern Virginia? I’m looking to expand my professional network beyond my own industry. Any ideas, creative or traditional, are appreciated. I’d love to hear your personal experiences. Weekend networking is best for my work hours.

Just outside the Chick Fil A, expect traffic for a while

Ahh . . .

Cultural enrichment.

(Edit to add that there were LOTS of people using their phones to record this Hallmark moment, so if I find a video posted I will share.)

Anyone know what’s going on? A Google search didn’t show much.

I can't get any park people on the phone 😭.

I have to work till 5 today and I also feel like I want to jump off my balcony a little bit. I've got to get outside into nature. Are there any wild parks in a 30 minute drive from Arlington that are open after 5pm? Maybe Burke Lake or Donaldson run park?

Hi! Me and my partner are gay couple exploring international surrogacy options. I was curious if there’s any others in the local community who’ve already completed this journey? We have some questions but also curious as to the overall experience.

Did you face any issues securing passports for your child? Unexpected challenges that would dissuade you from going through the journey again? Any advice would be much appreciated!

Moved to Fairfax not to long ago. I got a complicated diagnosis of Rem Sleep disorder along side ADHD and Anxiety. I do not like the provider I have now. Any recommendations?

Specifically one who will do a tubal ligation or salpingectomy. Anywhere in the area is probably fine.
