Crowds gathered yesterday outside AB-Tech's Ferguson Auditorium in Asheville, NC, to protest during Chuck Edwards town hall. Protesters waved posters and flags addressing recent administration changes from federal layoffs to international relations. #chuckedwardstownhall #asheville #northcarolina

Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde was nearing the end of her sermon for the inaugural prayer service on Tuesday when she took a breath and looked directly at President Trump.

Ok, I'm here on BlueSky but I'm so confused. And a wee bit exhausted. Do we post here, Instagram, Threads, Linked In, AND Facebook to promote our work?! I feel like I'm forgetting one. Will anyone even see THIS one? Unless it slips into the abyss of "never to be seen" posts, please explain. Thanks!

This is where the brewery Cursus Keme, a local favorite, stood.
