Cat showed up at my door and chose us… trying to get set up
Hey everyone,
So I didn’t plan on getting a cat, but the cat distribution system clearly had other plans 😅
This orange boy (we’re calling him Gingi) was part of a neighborhood litter and ended up sticking close to my place. Someone even came by and said I could have him, and at this point… he’s basically chosen us. He’s super friendly, affectionate, and has already bonded with me and my daughter.
Right now I’m in the process of figuring things out and getting set up for him. I’m working on organizing space in my apartment, but I don’t have much in terms of supplies yet.
I wanted to reach out and see:
Does anyone have extra cat supplies (litter box, litter, food, toys, etc.) they’re not using?
Any recommendations for low-cost vets in the Greensboro area?
General advice for bringing in a young cat that’s been outdoors but is very social?
He seems to be around 4–6 months old, healthy, and very comfortable around people (and even my dog, surprisingly).
I’m trying to do right by him, just didn’t expect it to happen this fast. Any help, advice, or direction would be appreciated!
Thanks ❤️

Find my Phone fun
Left my phone on a table out in front of Cheesecakes this past Friday. Realized it was gone and ran back to the shop to see if maybe I got lucky with someone honest but nope. BUT... I had my laptop so I tracked it and it was stopped nearby, moving around somewhere near the Carolina Theater. I locked it down and put a message on it to bring it by Cheesecakes, then set it to ringing. That particular find my device ring is loud af. Couldn't hear it near the cafe but this sweet guy came up with his phone and was like "dude this just happened to me. Connect to my hotspot and let's go."
So we drove around and it was still around the Carolina Theater but we didn't hear anything. He had to go back to work, so I got back to my car and the cop hanging out on Elm found out what was happening, got out HIS phone, I connected to his hotspot and then got in the back of the cop car and drove around (first time for everything I guess 😂). The entire time I am keeping this phone ringing with a flashing message to bring it to the cafe.
We didn't see anything either but we could see the damn thing moving around at greene and Washington. He parks the car, we get out, walk around the corner and there are two tweakers, one pushing a shopping cart full of crap. I don't relish talking to them but suspect I will retrieve my phone if I do. The cop asks first, thankfully, and after the initial denial I'm like "lemme just make it ring again."
As soon as I get on my laptop to make it ring again the tweaker guy suddenly remembers "oh yeah wait I DID find a phone, there's a phone right over here."
He keeps going off about how he "didn't have anything to do with it man" and I'm like dude I don't even care I just want my f*cking phone. Thanks for your help." I make it ring and this time I can hear it inside the parking deck.
We go walking into the deck and there's a metal door right inside. He points to it. My phone is tucked up under the edge of the door - just enough to dampen the sound of the loud ring, a little.
"It's been ringing a lot, LOUD, " tweaker guy says. He doesn't tell me he couldn't figure out how to turn it off, but I am sure he couldn't. On android you can change the button behaviors. I have mine set so I am the only person who knows how to turn off my phone, just in case I happen to do something stupid like this.
It takes a village lol - happy to have the thing back in my pocket, especially since I just bought it. I should be less careless. But in the meantime make sure you set up find my device and make it hard to turn your phone off. 😂 If you lose your phone make it ring like crazy.

“Head Shop” at Four Seasons Town Cente
Anyone recall the name of a shop at Four Seasons mall in the early to mid 1990s that trafficked in tie-dye t-shirts and incense?
As teenager, I remember getting a Led Zeppeljn shirt there. In my memory it was very small, tucked into a corner. Lasted probably two years.
Shoutout to Babbage’s computer games, too, while
remembering some stores at the mall.

Pura Vida 4/18
does anyone know what happened there? I was there and the cops raided the place.
They also had blocked off the entire street and wouldn’t let us out until after a while
edit: Spoke to several other people and found it was related to a cocaine trafficking bust. Several employees and i believe the owner were all arrested

How do you move from no experience to a professional career in GSO?
Hey everyone, I’m trying to break into the legal field (paralegal, legal assistant, internships, anything to get my foot in the door). I am in my last semester in college.
The issue is my resume is mostly waitressing/restaurant work. I’ve gotten good at multitasking, dealing with people, staying organized under pressure, etc., but I’m having a hard time getting anyone to take a chance on me for law-related roles or even admin-related roles.
I’ve applied to a few local firms and positions but haven’t had much luck so far. I’m not sure if I’m missing something or just approaching this the wrong way. I'm worried I'm going to apply to law school in a year or two and just have no work experience :(
For anyone in the Greensboro area or legal field:
- How did you get your first legal job or internship?
- Are there specific firms, offices, or organizations around here that are more open to beginners?
- Should I be looking into certifications, volunteering, or something else to build experience first?
I’m willing to start small and work my way up, I just don’t know where to start. Also this post isn't limited to just law-related jobs, just wanted to explain my situation, feel free to tell me about your experience moving into other fields!
Any advice would really help, thank you!

Started a mobile basketball arcade in Greensboro—didn’t expect this reaction
I started a mobile basketball arcade rental business (Hoop Greensboro) thinking it would mostly be for kids’ parties… but honestly, adults get just as into it 😅
We’ve had people turn it into full-on competitions with music going, neighbors joining in, etc. It’s been cool seeing something simple bring that kind of energy to events.
Still early on and learning a lot as we go, but curious—what’s the most fun/unique thing you’ve seen at a party recently?
If you want to check out what we’re building, we’re on IG, TikTok, and FB @HoopGreensboro.

Build the May Day shutdown one ask at a time
If we’re going to make the national shutdown on May 1st matter, we’re going to have to do the slow, hard work of asking folks to make a sacrifice with us, one person at a time. 🪧 Here’s some tools we can use and opportunities to help us grow the movement in the coming days: 🪧
- The May Day Strong coalition has put out a starter toolkit with guidance on how to have one-on-one conversations with folks about this strike. Let’s check it out here.
- Let’s each make a personal commitment to asking one person in our lives to join us in striking on May 1st. We can urge them to sign the pledge with us here.
- Many local coalition groups are canvassing businesses in their neighborhood, asking them to show solidarity by closing on May 1st. We can find guidance on how to run one of these canvasses here.
- Freedom Trainers will be conducting a virtual seminar on how we can build local capacity for strike readiness TONIGHT at 6PM ET. We can sign up to join here.
- United We Dream is holding a textbank to reach progressives nationwide about the May Day shutdown on Tuesday at 7PM ET. We can volunteer to take part here.

Mexican shrimp cocktail
I just tried Mexican shrimp cocktail and now I’m obsessed. I never tried it before because I just assumed it was spicy. The shrimp cocktail at Monterrey on Battleground was ok but it was a little too sweet and the spice wasn’t bad at first but it built. What’s your favorite Mexican restaurant to get shrimp cocktail??
