But also Richmond’s metro area is 1.25m people. Limiting this to just city limits population is extra silly given Virginia’s city/county independence.
Also it’s *barely* under 250k (estimated 235k)

It’s so simple to understand and just has all the layers of taskmaster. Lateral thinking brilliance mixed with inane frustration at sincere attempts.
If people want to just start with a single task to dip their toes in, this is always my pull youtu.be/gznDGyNiDlg?...
Taskmaster is genuinely the best thing to happen to my life (aside from my children being born) over the last 5+ years. What an absolute gift of joy to the world
Done!

John Kelly claims NC as home btw
Big fan of this
I mapped a whole collection of Oregon Hill from the 1960s and could not figure out what church was in the background of this picture yesterdays.maprva.org/224/
Once I did, the pic of the fire was one of the first related images I could find. More info here: www.oregonhill.net/2012/01/21/l...
We take our maps pretty seriously 🧐
This one was included in a Richmond collection... just not the right Richmond yesterdays.maprva.org/16610/
This was also included, but it's Richfield Springs, NY, not Richmond, VA yesterdays.maprva.org/32972/
And there's this one yesterdays.maprva.org/32922/
Have you seen the pic from this same spot/time looking the other direction? One of a raft of (presumably civil rights-related) arsons on Richmond churches in the 1960s.

@hollyanderson.bsky.social this feels like something up your alley to help with!
My mistake. I was thinking of one of the procedural votes that Vance showed for but didn’t end up being needed.
Didn’t it pass the senate 51-49?
This is very relatable. What’s in the current rotation?
An old podcast I used to listen to would report on the number of Wikipedia pages in each fight card…
Exactly 50% is…. Not good!
