Anyone having issues getting a parking permit rn?

Commuting this year and the site just says “There are not yet any permits available for you to purchase. Please try again later.”. I didn’t have the money for the permit until now so I couldn’t have gotten it earlier. Is it closed or is purple lot somehow sold out?

VCR/CRT repair in the area?

Having a major issue with an old magnavox VHS player and was wondering whether any of you know a place where I could get it repaired or get someone to look at it. Thanks in advance.

Isopods exposed to paint chemicals 😔

Today is my birthday. Yesterday, as a present without my knowledge my dad came over with his spare key and painted my bedroom where I keep my armadillidium maculatum (something I had been wanting to do for awhile). My work day is flexible so I got home as he was doing it and calmly freaked out as, of my small colony of 7-8 isopods, 3 were curled up on the surface and the others were underground at the time.

I immediately removed them from the room into fresh air and all adults have recovered (some moving slower than usual). However, also in this tank were an uncountable amount of mancae that I typically see to some extent. Today I have seen 1 and because of the exposure I’ve been looking pretty well.

What makes this worse is that it’s partially my fault as I had left the top of the tank off to try and deal with yellow houseplant mushrooms. (My home’s humidity is at between 53-75 so no drastic humidity change) I have a feeling that this wouldn’t have been so bad had the top been on :(

Any advice? I don’t even know where to start. Should I change all the substrate? Leaves? Moss? I don’t really want to disturb any remaining mancae

Container details: 10 gallon glass tank. substrate is 3 year old potting soil from when this was a terrarium, mixed with sphagnum moss, coco coir and crushed leaves. LECA drainage layer. Leaf litter/botanicals are magnolia, ash, and oak leaves, sphagnum moss, acorns, dicot branches and bark, live tradescantia and live ripple peperomia. Crushed egg shells for calcium. Carrot and sweet potato plopped in for additional food. Contains springtails.
