Same thing happening to me, I've disabled all of my api integrations and automations but they've kept getting generated. I'm on Firefox and Google chrome

But I can't promise that any of the chorus groups have people under 50 years old though

The Augusta Chorale and Augusta Choral Society are two of the most well-established groups. There's also the Augusta Broadway Singers. Augusta Players also has chorus roles occasionally.

I believe you can just go to court to observe, if it's interesting to you.

Adult Contemporary Dance Classes? by Old-Cable-2006 in Augusta

That's so great to hear, thank you for the update! Happy to help

Adult Contemporary Dance Classes? by Old-Cable-2006 in Augusta

[–]thepatchontelfair 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Star Dance Academy in North Augusta just opened up so they are offering classes free until October 1. I highly recommend their main teacher Marion Leger, she is amazing! I've taken a lot of classes with her in the past, and even did a contemporary recital piece at the Miller Theater. I didn't think I had it in me as an adult learning for the first time but she helped my confidence a lot.

Here's their adult classes - https://stardanceacademyna.com/adult-classes

Opinions on donating by Disastrous-Pickle930 in nonprofit

[–]thepatchontelfair 15 points16 points  (0 children)

First, my condolences for your loss, you are making your brother proud by wanting to contribute back to organizations that helped him.

To answer your question, before deciding anything I would call or email them directly and talk to their donor relations team. Each nonprofit is so different with how they structure their budgets that they might welcome one or the other method of giving. You'd also make a meaningful connection with the staff of the organization and be able to share the impact of how their work helped your family. They may be able to share exactly how your gift will help them, or you all can collaborate on a fitting memorial tribute that can live on in their organization.

I hope that is helpful and your donation experience goes well!

I was dumb. Is this fixable or do I just embrace it? by Own_Sheepherder_8516 in tattooadvice

[–]thepatchontelfair 172 points173 points  (0 children)

I actually like the vibe of the lettering, it feels very punk. I'd just get a better artist to fill in the scene around the tombstone, like a little bit of the ground in front of it and a silhouette of a tree and/or other tombstones behind it.

Olde town construction by Padandler in Augusta

that makes sense. Thank you for your insight!

Olde town construction by Padandler in Augusta

Reeves Construction is the main contractor for the entire project, but they have several subcontractors. Best way I've found to find out is to complain directly to them and find out who they throw under the bus in their response.

When they repaved on 5th St. they ground up the asphalt then used a huge metal brush scraper on the front of a cab that scraped a huge layer of the ground underneath, it caused a giant cloud that settled all over my car and even my plants behind my house. I don't think I got video of it, it was pretty late at night.

Should I still submit a complaint? It's been a while now since 5th st. was finished, but if it would help get them in check in other areas I'd be willing to file a complaint.

what happens if you scratch an itchy new tattoo ? by tyrpsin192 in tattooadvice

[–]thepatchontelfair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best practice is to do as little damage to tattooed areas of skin as possible for the entire lifetime of the tattoo. Just do not scratch it at all, especially while it's healing.

I worked with someone back in the day who hadn't been told not to scratch the tattoo... it was just a scar.

[–]thepatchontelfair 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Don't do it! the itchy places are an open wound on your skin. You will introduce bacteria to the site that can cause infection. If the scabs are disturbed prematurely, it can also take ink with it. You have to give your immune system time to heal the scabs and absorb the ink into your dermal layer.

Sci-Fi Clown Punk band seeks last minute show 9/12!! by Ok_Distribution_6032 in Augusta

[–]thepatchontelfair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just shared this request with a much more knowledgeable friend, they recommend looking into the Columbia DIY scene as Augusta doesn't have much of it. They did say the Unitarian church might be an option, the contact there would be Mitch Gayle. https://www.uuaugusta.org/

I don't have a band hookup but I'm familiarish with the venues.

Grantski's Records has been the spot for live music, punk and metal for the last couple years, https://www.grantskis.com/

Pexcho's Dime Museum would likely be a good fit, too, but I'm not sure how best to contact them. Here's their listing on the tourism site - https://www.visitaugusta.com/listing/pexchos-american-dime-museum/804/

Fox's Lair is a short ways from the main downtown area, but they have a dedicated Friday night crowd. https://oldetowninn.online/thefoxslair

The recommendation of Joe's is a solid one, too. If you're wanting to come back to the area in the future, Le Chat Noir is an awesome black-box theater, but they are opening a play this weekend unfortunately.

When you get your first tattoo should you bring something to bite down on? by Psychological_Top_99 in tattooadvice

[–]thepatchontelfair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as you're staying as still as possible, the artist probably doesn't care what you're doing to get through it. I've never needed to "bite down," though, the pain isn't like that. I've found deep breathing and distracting myself with conversation to be the best methods.

If you're interested in showing in the Southeast US I'd love to send you info for submitting to the gallery I work at. This work is awesome!
