BREAKING: Richmond police report 20-year-old VCU student Cody Woodson was shot and killed on Monday evening on Gilmer Street, according to a university release. Story upcoming.
.@theCT calls for the expulsion of VCU's Delta Chi chapter and a crackdown on hazing.
"If the university allows a reckless group of insecure young men to resume their dangerous activities anywhere near VCU's campus, it will happen again — simply put."

Hello, thanks to everyone who messaged me and other people from The Commonwealth Times about Adam. We are currently contacting VCU and VCU PD for answers. If you have any other information, please send me a message. gofundme.com/f/help-adams-fa…

Adding to the confusion, people who are incarcerated have the same questions about the COVID-19 vaccine many of us do that they can't get answered.
That is unfair, dangerous, and an urgent issue that needs to be addressed.
About half of Virginia’s prisoners have received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, but some say conditions are punitive and that the vaccine rollout isn’t going so smoothly. Many miss seeing their families.

Starting therapy this week. It took a while for me to warm up to it, but I realized this stuff can’t be put off for long.
If you’re thinking about talking to a professional, do it. We all deserve to take care of ourselves these days.
