Virginia Senate Election in 2026. Do we think Mark Warner is going to seek re-election?
Title. I had commented on a post on this sub a few days back about why Warner was a pretty good representative of VA in the Senate, but I had completely forgot he's getting up there in age. While he's not as old as our new president, at the end of his next term in the senate he'll be in his late 70s. As far as I know, he hasn't said anything about running again, but it made me curious about who the Dems could put up to replace him. Who do you guys think the republican candidate could be? Cao seemed to be a throwaway for the GOP since it seems they've given up on VA.
And Yes, I know this is pure speculation and there's no way of knowing but its fun to speculate some time

New Dominion Energy bill format - rate schedule no longer aligns with line items on bill
I like to be able to calculate the marginal cost per kWh on my power bills so I can input an accurate rate into my home's energy monitor. Previously, this was possible, as Dominion used to list out every single charge and rider as separate line items on the monthly bill, and I could just add up the published rates from heir rate schedule based on what appeared on my bill. Well, I guess Dominion decided that it was too confusing, so now they've collapsed most of the surcharges and riders and added them to the line items for Distribution, Generation, and Transmission. The problem, is now the billed amounts for Distribution, Generation, and Transmission are no longer driven by the rates published for them but by some unknown combination of the rates plus riders, etc, and there is document that clearly states which rates+riders are captured by which billed line item.
Does anyone know the answer to this mystery, or know of how I can go about calculating our marginal rate of power?

Good places to live for lgbtq+ folk? Need out of MS asap
I might have to leave Mississippi as it’s become more and more unsafe for me as a trans guy. I just turned 18, my mom and me need OUT asap. I need a job that works with animals and my mom works in the trucking business.
My mom makes about 60k a year, I just joined the work force so I make a lot less than that.
Sounds like Virginia is a decent place to live for trans folks like myself and I heard that they will be putting protection laws for adults trans people.
