Parking permit

My daughter will be a first year student and she missed the parking permit sale yesterday. She said the parking permit link says that it is sold out. What are her options for getting a parking permit at this time? Thanks.

Hidden in my cupboards

So I am moving. The middle one has been in my fridge for 10 years. The other two were hidden behind growlers in a cupboard. Drinking Le Vermontoise now and the bottle conditioning has made it quite effervescent. I stashed the 4-pack around 15 years ago and completely forgot about it.

This group is too real

So I followed this site thinking it was a joke site but recently learned this is a very serious site addressing very specific issues. Today I was at a 5k Ultra Marathon Supreme and all these things really happened:

-c***ist tried to run over several runners during their warmup.

-woman with the most Gu win race (she flashed 5 at the starting line in order to intimidate other runners)

-finally (and most horrifyingly) a woman was at the finish line looking for boyfriends who came in before her husband

The last one needs a little elaboration. I stayed in Zone 2 and midfoot-struck slowly along to finish in 24 or so minutes. I was waiting for another Zone 2 aficionado when a noticed a woman with her toddler and her parents next to me. Because I avidly do everything r/RunningFashion advises me to do I have a colorful hat. The toddler noticed the colorful hat and the fact I finished minutes ahead of his father so was cooing at me. The mother and her parents then engaged me in conversation and it was clear that my potential new girlfriend's mother engaged me in a long conversation in order to politely assess my fitness and genetics. The toddler looked at me with open admiration and unspoken/wordless shame at a father who needed to enter Zone 4 just to finish behind many other runners. My potential girlfriend's father beamed encouragingly at me with anticipatory pride tinged with years of public shame. My potential new girlfriend just looked at me and as the minutes passed by made it obvious I could be her boyfriend. Then the award ceremony started and she noticed a more relaxed and faster forefoot striking runner than I and I was forgotten.

Random picture to protect actual parties involved (although I would have been happy to photograph the c***list to properly warn society about them).
