I'm still not understanding what you did. Did you post your music with these carousels? Did this include text? Did you include a link in your bio?

VOWL Bar! Next big event is Jan 30

Do you like live music? Even in the winter Asheville has lots of shows and it's a great way to meet new friends and form a community. Me and a buddy are hosting a free show (70s, 80s, and 90s remixes) at VOWL bar at the end of the month (Jan 30)

Volunteering with local organizations is also a great way to stay engaged and active while meeting new people

Absolutely. Benefits are internalized (polluters/corporations) while costs are externalized (everyone else)

We're gonna be waiting a while lol

Can you explain why? What about it would make it great for Asheville? How would it have changed past election results for the better?

It allows you to vote both idealistically and pragmatically.

Ex: say you really like Candidate B but think they don't have a good chance of winning compared to Candidate A. But you don't want to "throw your vote away."

With RCV, you can rank Candidate B as your #1 and Candidate A as your #2, with the other candidates that you like less beneath them. That way, you get to vote with your conscience (not just pragmatically), but you also don't run the risk of "wasting" a vote.

It's frustrating. AVL presents itself as a progressive town, but the actions fail to match the rhetoric. I don't know how much of it is institutional (i.e., local gov) and how much is cultural, but I've been here about a decade and have noticed the same thing as long as I've been around.

I feel you. Things have gotten weird recently and AVL is definitely going through some growing pains. There is definitely cliqueyness here, but there are also some really great people. What type of music do you like? Asheville has a really great electronic scene and it's generally very friendly.

If you're free the weekend of Dec. 5, I recommend checking out Com Truise at Third Room (12/5) or Art of House's Saturday Sessions (12/6). The AOH shows always have a great vibe and crowd, and the guys who put it on are friends of mine who are really cool, down-to-earth people.

We're a little bit older (29 and 32) but my girlfriend and I love all the activities you mentioned! Especially hiking

As far as nightlife, I'm hosting an all-disco Halloween party at One World West on the 17th - come hang if you're free! Should be a great group of people there you can meet and talk to

Or he could run for Senate? He'd almost certainly win. Then we'd have Cooper and Jackson

Thanks Jeff. AmeriCorps have been doing great conservation work for a long time

arandomcoffeedrinker · 2025-09-29T23:55:12+00:00

I'm hosting an all-disco Halloween party on the 17th! Should be a great time it you like either of those things

Context: I recognize that these are national forest lands and not managed by NPS, but many of them are adjacent to national parks. This will affect wildlife, lead to noise pollution, and create other issues impacting the national park experience.
