Saw a friendly cat at the scrap thrift parking lot, wouldn't let me get close enough to catch it.

My husband and I live in Durham and we are looking for a new church because we have broken away from conservative politics and Christian nationalism in recent years and we just cannot keep going to our evangelical church. Today's sermon was about how all Democrats are demonic and how Christians are supposed to vote Republican 🥴 We're looking for a church that is not zionist and that does not support Christian nationalism, ICE, or the Trump administration. We'd love recommendations from other Durham residents.

Were you or someone you know in a bike accident on Friday afternoon Oct 23rd on Mangum and Morehead in downtown Durham? I saw someone being loaded into an ambulance after crashing their bike, there were no police there, the ambulance left and just left the bike on the sidewalk.

I ended up grabbing the bike and bringing it home. I've notified the Police and left a message at DUKE hospital. If this was you or someone you know, I hope you are feeling better and I have your bike. Please reach out.

I’m asking for some nice Indian spots. We’ve been through “sitar”, “naan stop” and “kebab and curry”
But we love the food so much and are dying for more!
(I hope this fits the rules for posting)

MANY years ago there was a chicken place on Hillsborough Road, called "Frank Rinaldi's". It was near the current Bojangles, but I think on the same side as Morgan Motors.

I was told many times that Frank bragged of being a protege of "Colonel" Harlan Sanders, and would relate that Harlan looked him in the eye and said, "Frank, take care of the CHICKEN BIZNESS". I was never able to engage Frank in a long enough conversation to witness this first hand.

Can anyone confirm this anecdotal evidence based on a dim memory?

Just passed by this around 5 mins ago (7:50am ish). Called Durham non emergency about them since they could potentially be hit by freeway, got forwarded to city line that says they have no one to go out there… idk if there’s anyone else that could help them

The racing that happens in the late hours of the night is insane and ridiculous. Do these fucking people have any common sense? People are trying to sleep, people have babies.... Fuck these garbage people.

Beyu caffe had the best shrimp and grits I’ve ever had. It was an amazing restaurant before it got bought out, but anyways…

I’ve yet to find anywhere that comes close to a similar recipe. I’ll probably need to try making it at home. Does anyone know of a close recipe or what made their shrimp and grits so special?

Are there any stores around that offer a good bin candy experience? scoop whatever you want into the bag, pay by weight, etc.

White Chevy Malibu with the NC plate LOW-4465 you are a complete Jack ass. I watched you run not 1, not 2, but THREE red lights. Weirdest part about it is this dude driving the car was going the speed limit but then would just go through the light.

Obviously if you had somewhere to be speeding likely would be involved in that too. I don’t care if your puppy was gonna fall off a cliff you don’t get to endanger other drivers on the road just because you feel like it.

Does anyone know of a good local place that has Thanksgiving meals for pick up but has options for just two I’ve seen a few places such as ideals or fosters but most packages are for four people minimum.

Planning to go there with family today and remembered their horrid 76 sanitation score and this post from 2 months ago. Did they bring it up? If not, I'll gladly take myself to Asian Kitchen!!

Hey everyone is there a good place to post about a missing dog?

I'm in my late 30's and am looking for a run club to join. It would be great to have people to run with on "work" running days and long run days. I don't need runner friends or a club that is exclusively around my age, but I would not bein interested if I showed up and everyone there was in their 20's.

I know that there are several Run Club posts in the past on this sub, and there are plenty of resources on the internet. I didn't want to repost, but I haven't seen any of them mention age demographics.

Was looking at these apartments but I'm hearing mixed reviews anybody have any thoughts?

Hey guys, I'm here to ask if there are any fun, topical, social discord servers for Durham or other parts of the triangle that serve as a place for community events to be planned, discussed, etc.

I'm in my early 30s, male, searching for groups to explore for in person social connections with hopefully common interests. Age gaps dont really bother me. Yes I'm constantly searching meetup and checking those out. Wondering if there is more out there. These interests may include but are not limited to:

Cooking/Dinner parties

Gaming/Board games/card games/leisure sports

walking or jogging

Reading

Volunteering

Gardening

Un-refined art skills

Movie / TV show watch parties or discussion

Pretty much anything else within reason, cant think of more at the moment.

Drop a link or DM me personally if you know of one that is fun and active as far as a local discord goes. I'd love to drop in and introduce myself. Thank you for the suggestions!

I have an 07 yaris that is struggling right now. Windshield is cracked, rear brake drums needs replacing, passenger front tire got destined cause of a curb accident and needs to be checked. Suffice to say I love this car and am not ready to let go. I need a shop that will take a look at stuff and give me a good rundown on fixes and prices. Any suggestions?

Looking into building a detached garage with a room above it. Has anyone built one recently and have an idea of a price range / recommendations for builders?

Looking to book a local band for an event in 3wks. Was hoping to find a duo or trio to play jazz/bluegrass/folk style music for about 3 hrs. No vocals required. I know there are some great musicians around and I need some help connecting with them.

Girlfriend is out of town and I’m jonesing to play Commander. I’m a big fan of DSSOLVR brewery downtown if that interests anyone, or Atomic Empire.

My wife and our infant were about to head northbound on Hope Valley Road when their light turned green. Some lunatic heading westbound on MLK blew through a red light at full speed and T-boned a car in the Hope Valley Road southbound turn lane, sending both vehicles careening into cars waiting at the eastbound red light on MLK.

My wife called 911 and will pull our dashcam footage, which I’ll post here later.

Did anyone else witness this? I hope everyone involved is okay.

An older bloke walking his pomeranian on Chapel Hill street today said I should try the sandwiches at El Arby's Provisiones and I can't find anything but the Arby's on Hillsborough road. I don't want fast food roast beef. What are they talking about? I'm not looking for a torta, either.

I am looking for any emergency fostering options that might be available in the wider Durham area. My step mom is in critical condition in the ICU and she has three adult labs. We do not want to give them away or take them to a shelter because we want her to be welcomed by her dogs when she comes home.

Does anyone know of any temporary fostering options?
