Hey @charlesgaba, do you have a special fundraiser set to help people affected by Jim Crow gerrymanders fight back? Today would be a good day to embrace the idea of rage donating in Virginia and beyond.

Norfolk International KORF → Billy Mitchell KHSE
In the early morning, both the moon and the sun were visible at the same time. The sun was just rising as I flew over Kill Devil Hills – the site of the Wright brothers' work and the location of the first motor-powered flight (last image).
A runway length of only 3,000 feet at Billy Mitchell Airfield and crosswinds made the landing quite a challenge.

Richmond International KRIC → Norfolk International KORF
Back in the United States for another attempt after resolving the technical issues. I’ve updated the keyboard shortcuts before takeoff ;-)
This flight was short but came with stunning views. The gusty crosswinds made landing quite a challenge. Had to make a go-around after the first try but managed to get down safely on the second attempt.

#Badnews #January 29th #2025 Barn burnt down. No humans were hurt.
Long before it was home to a giant beanstalk, a half-pipe water slide, and the world's cutest piglets, it was a dairy barn. Built approximately 100 years ago, it was already old when we moved to the farm in 1979

DC rejected Washington Gas' expensive, irresponsible gas pipe renewal program today. Their public utilities commission claimed that the estimated cost of $4.5 BILLION was unjust and did not align with DC's climate goals.
As a commissioner on Richmond's Public Utilities and Services Commission, I hope to raise similar concerns and questions. Richmond Gas Works is sleepwalking Richmond residents into a financial disaster and I want to help stop that.

Awesome protest in RVA today shutting down the I-95 / I-64 interchange during the morning commute.

Okidogi is a low rider with such a compact little bod, he'd fit perfectly on any lap! He was taken in as a stray in September. Yes, September. While he doesn't love the car, he adores walks and is easy to handle! No jumpy or mouthy behavior from this sweet little nugget.
Do you have room in your heart and a home that's larger than an average parking space? If so, Okidogi needs a break from shelter life. Help us help our boy.

Hey #Virgina voters: contact your district representative NOW https://whosmy.virginiageneralassembly.gov/ and tell them to oppose House Bill 393. https://legiscan.com/VA/bill/HB393/2024 Among other absurdities this "eliminates provisions allowing for the use of ranked choice voting in the Commonwealth”, institutionalizing extremists on both ends of the #virginia #politics spectrum. Non Virginians in the #dmv and #WashingtonDC areas please tell your VA friends. Wanna guess which party started this “election reform” bill?

Hey remember how #rva is replacing hundreds of miles of gas pipes and we don't really know how much it costs?
Washington, DC just released a document stating that their cost of pipe replacement is just under $20 million per mile. That's insane! Every replacement is millions of dollars in debt that customers will be required to pay back. Thanks to @eshilts for surfacing this.
It's time we broke up with gas. #dmv #virgina #washingtondc

This is the most egregious gas leak Beyond Methane RVA has discovered yet 😱. One of our members found this pipe spewing gas on December 20th, 2023. Since then the surrounding building managers and necessary city officials have been notified, but no action has been taken! This leak is dangerous!
It's time to break up with natural gas. #climate #energy #energydon #rva #virgina

That's Care Bear! With his adorable white mittens, big ears, and a heart-shaped mark on his forehead, he's practically a walking heartthrob. Care Bear is not just a pretty face, though. Care Bear may need a little training and have an abundance of energy, but that's what makes him all the more entertaining. Imagine the fun-filled moments you'll have together as you guide him on his journey to becoming an even more amazing boy. Care Bear's dreams are simple yet heartwarming. He yearns for a cozy home with plush beds to snooze on and delicious meals to satisfy his appetite. But most importantly, he craves the love and affection of caring individuals like yourself. So, why wait?

Beano here! Get ready to be charmed by my adorable wiggly butt and my unrivaled expertise in tail wagging. I'm a bundle of joy! I absolutely adore meeting new people and spending quality time with them. Whether it's playing, going for walks, or simply cuddling, I'm always up for some fun and companionship. Now, let's talk about those pesky cats. I must confess, they're not exactly my cup of tea. But hey, who needs those sneaky felines when you can have an incredible canine companion like me?

I want to thank the Richmond Times Dispatch for publishing my latest piece: "In Richmond, leaky gas pipes could spark a fiscal meltdown"
In it, you'll learn why your gas bills have been increasing, how DPU has been handling gas leaks, that mega corporations might be subsidized by residents in Richmond, and how a public utilities commission could help.
Boosts appreciated.
