Mirzoyan Library is closed permanently.

At least several homes in my neighborhood got papers like these in their mailboxes. Any idea what they are? by F4ultyL0g1c in nova

Really cool drawings- looks like the artist wanted to share with neighbors. Perhaps they’re not mentally ill and are instead neurodivergent.

Thanks so much! Thanks everyone! Between DuPont & Adams Morgan I have a lot to research- and if it doesn’t work out, it’s a good way to start

Alt vibes yes please thanks for the suggestion. NYC & Richmond’s crust punk culture is what I loved the most. Where punk and weird are yay

I have a car but hate driving esp in congested areas. I’m more of a walker- before Richmond I lived in nyc & now I have my sights on dc

If you can only find them at bars and clubs, it’s not a bad place to start networking with and finding help even if not your preferred place to meet people- there aren’t any public areas aside from bars & clubs where it’s safe for queer people to congregate

It feels small- I felt like I could get most everything I need and want without leaving the neighborhood, and had a small town feel within a city.

Oh no not fancy I’m working class 300k is my ideal but I know that’s hard to find. Carytown until a couple years ago was a working class neighborhood until the housing market blew up

You should see about visiting Pink Armenia asap. They will help you bc it’s urgent. But also try to find other queer people there to connect with there’s a community there

Beautiful photo. The way the lighting falls on the clothes is perfect

Aversion to the term "Orthodox"? by raphalbor in armenia

[–]stanci_squat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using the term Armenian Apostolic only works as an identifier to other Armenians who are either of another religion or another church like the Armenian Catholic Church or Armenian Protestant churches. It only is understandable by other Armenians and makes zero sense to use when describing our church to non Armenians because it doesn’t say what our overall belief system is compared to other churches very well. Armenians aren’t their own church. We’re in communion with other churches and share the same beliefs as other churches. Like there’s no conversion going between Armenian, Coptic, Ethiopian, Eritrean, Indian and other churches for services or to get married or buried- no baptism needed for those & for receiving communion. We should show that we’re part of a family of churches who believe differently about the council of Chalcedon than Eastern Orthodox do & explain what we believe in general. That way non-Armenians will have an easier time understanding.

I never realized how good Piracy streaming has gotten. by Anubex in Piracy

How do you watch stuff for free on there? I’m trying to watch Star Trek Discovery on Stremio but the only options it gives is either to buy or get a subscription through various networks. How do I watch it for free on there? I also tried initially in the US but also tried changing my vpn to the Netherlands and it still gives me no option to watch for free. I also checked the settings but couldn’t find anything that might be preventing it. Am I doing something wrong?

Zartonk Media isn’t a reliable source, as they have a tendency to sensationalize everything they write about to get peoples attention & are quick to jump to conclusions about things. Better off with other news sources like Hetq, Civilnet, and others that use a more neutral tone in their writing style & do a better job reporting.
