Let's talk about rules.

266 Upvotes

Howdy, folks!

This subreddit hasn't had codified rules in a while, mostly because the people here have usually been really chill with one another.

However, the vibe has changed over the past few months, and we've noticed some nasty behavior popping up and lurking around our community.

We don't allow bigotry like racism, sexism, homophobia, or transphobia on this subreddit. Generally speaking, we expect folks to be civil and decent towards one another.

Recently, we've noticed a distinct uptick in the amount of trolls who have been showing up in the comment sections of the various protest posts. We know they're trolls because they're almost always attacking the OP or trying to diminish the protest, and they usually have user activity across many state and local subreddits.

These aren't local folks - they're people coming into our space from elsewhere to stir up trouble.

Since this sort of behavior has only been getting worse, let's discuss our subreddit rules and which ones y'all think would be good to have for this space.

For a start:

  1. Be civil and respectful towards one another.
  2. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or bigotry.
  3. No spam.
  4. Follow all of reddit's rules.

What other rules do you think we need?

Howdy, y'all. I guess it's time for me to tap the sign again, because every time there are protests in the Triangle, someone goes around and mass reports all of those posts.

Strangely, we also tend to get a lot of people who post in all sorts of local area subreddits, all over the country, just to act like they're upset about this protest or that protest, and yet have never commented in our community before. Fancy that.

So there's some underhanded fuckery afoot, and y'all should be aware of it.

This subreddit is devoted to the protection and well being of our community at large. That means all of y'all. We cannot support the extrajudicial detainment of anyone, citizen or no. This country was built on laws and principles, meant to be a shining beacon of democracy where people would get a fair shake.

One of the cool things about America is you can come here and become American. It's one of our country's major strengths.

As a country, our diversity has repeatedly protected us - patriotic members of German and Japanese communities helped the US translate enemy communications during WWII. The Navajo code talkers weren't declassified until the 1970's because they were so effective - their codes were never broken. There's also the Tuskegee Airmen and the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, an all-Japanese unit which became the most decorated unit for its size in US history.

Today is also November 20th, a solemn day for trans folks across the US. It is the Trans Day of Remembrance, when we remember those we've lost to murder or suicide over the years. Unfortunately, I recognize more than a few of those names, and I hate the way the list gets longer every year.

Times are tough for our Hispanic and LGBT friends. People are anxious and scared. Bigotry and bullshit have been stoked and set loose upon the country; hatred has been running rampant. People are going to need protection, support, and resources.

This space is meant to be a refuge and a resource for our community. If you can't respect that, or if what I have said here is somehow objectionable to you, please leave.

This is consistent with previous years. As is longest wait times being in Cary, Fuquay and Wake Forest.

Overall voter turnout is up 80% so far over the 2022 (last midterms).

Go vote, bring your photo ID. Be nice to poll workers and other voters. Ignore the people shoving voter guides into your hands.

Check your voter reg the next day to ensure your ballot was accepted.

O2 Fitness Durham (University Drive) Personal Trainers

3 Upvotes

Looking for an affordable personal trainer for weight loss. I frequent O2 Fitness and am curious whether anyone has worked with any of the personal trainers there and whether it's worth it. I am looking specifically for someone to help build a structured plan, including some lifting, who is friendly and direct. I am a female in my 30s, if that matters for weight loss.

Knotty by Nature Natives plant sale Saturday 10/17 in Durham NC

27 Upvotes

Two new items added this week! Heliopsis helianthoides, Early Sunflower, and Phlox divaricata, Wild Blue Phlox.

Wild Blue Phlox is found in the mountains and Piedmont of NC in moist shady conditions. Only growing to be about a foot tall, it makes a great border or ground cover for your shade garden.

https://www.knottybynaturetrees.com/product-page/phlox-divaricata-wild-blue-phlox

Early Sunflower is also found in the Piedmont and mountains of NC but in drier, sunnier spots. It typically only grows to be 3-4' tall and just as wide, but will spread by seed and rhizome to fill in an area or compete in your grassland.

https://www.knottybynaturetrees.com/product-page/heliopsis-helianthoides-early-sunflowe

We will be open this Saturday 9-4 at 5911 Mount Hermon Church Rd. in Durham. If Saturdays don't work for you, you can place an order online and schedule a time to pick up at a time that is more convenient.

Many trees are and all annuals are currently discounted 20-50% off at this time. The annuals are basically being sold as seed for next years plants as of now, but they will all easily germinate without any help.

Exhaust shop recs around Durham/RTP?

1 Upvotes

Anyone have a good exhaust/muffler shop around the Triangle they’d recommend? Looking to get a MAD midpipe installed on my 2026 M3 Comp (G80). Got quoted $500–600 for the install at a BMW shop, so figured I’d ask around before booking.

Doesn’t have to be a BMW specialist, but ideally somewhere that’s worked on BMWs or Porsches before.

Would love to hear where you went and roughly what you paid. I’m in Durham but happy to drive to Raleigh or Cary.

Anybody recognize the “how’s my driving” phone number?

I wanted to report this car through the “how’s my driving” number but the last part of it is cut off. If anyone knows the rest of this phone number or what company the car is from, I would greatly appreciate it! I tried searching online but apparently there are multiple different phone numbers and the license plate look-up only gives me general info about the type of car

Once a Raleigh cop, Apex bra shop owner closes store for new career

8 Upvotes

I reported this story about a career path that stretches across the Triangle: Raleigh police officer → Apex small-business owner → counseling in Cary.

April Buchanan says The Perky Lady was profitable when she closed it. What interested me was why she chose to leave anyway — and how the three very different jobs ended up having more in common than they might appear to.

Leftie Jews in the Triangle

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm building a small community of likeminded Jews (and anyone who has a connection with or affinity for the culture or religion, no matter what your personal background) and figured I'd throw a line out here as well.

About us: So far, I have a little burgeoning group of folks in their 20s, 30s, and 40s. We do talk politics and make an effort to see each other's perspectives; we're all left of center, but have a range of personal labels when it comes to the z word, and we meet up to talk about that in a nuanced, sane, compassionate way. It's been therapeutic. If that's something that resonates with you, hit me up!

in-patient recommendation for short term stabilization

7 Upvotes

I have a loved one who has a residential treatment program lined up, but needs to be stabilized prior to admittance. places in or around Durham that have come up in my search are three hospitals (Duke, UNC, Advent in Henderson which has a unit for women) and then Triangle Springs.

this is not addiction related, but more around anxiety and ideation; I want to make sure she feels like she is in a safe space and is cared for. has anyone experienced or has had a loved one experience any of these four places recently that could provide a recommendation or insight?

thank you very much for your help!
