Most Richmonders haven’t heard about it, but the City of Richmond is rewriting the rules that will determine what can be built, and where, for decades to come. It’s called the Zoning Code Refresh, and right now, it’s quietly moving through the public comment stage. If...
It's a month into the quarantine and we're all getting a little messy -- what better place to air that kind of thing out than Missed Connections? From speculation about side chicks to sadness over the death of John Prine, this week's has a bit of a different feel than usual -- probably because people are mostly not having the chance to miss any...
It's another week of quarantine here in the Missed Connections, and we're missing just about everything at this point -- some of this week's posters are even missing those cheesy bikini car wash events that random cheerleading groups throw to raise funds for prom or whatever. I always thought they were a little degrading, myself, but hey,...
Even though we're all trapped in our houses for who knows how long, there are still positive stories taking place around the world. Here are some that will make you smile. Between the isolation and separation from those we care about and the obvious fears about the effects of coronavirus, it can be hard to stay positive. Thankfully, there are...
A plague is loose on the land, and any Missed Connections out there right now are just gonna have to stay missed for a while. But hey, we can still read about them, right? In this trying time, let's get the little bits of joy where we can. Like, for example, the guy who still fantasizes about his unrequited high school sweetheart kicking him in...
It's surprising to see just how strongly the Missed Connections roll on regardless of the fact that we're all quarantined in our homes. Personally, I've only been around other people once in the past week -- I was at the grocery store, frantically trying to grab some toilet paper. How is it still out of stock everywhere? Do some of you have...
It's an interesting week in the world of Missed Connections, because right now, all any of us can think about is how much we want to miss a connection with COVID-19. That's a thought some Missed Connections posters had this week, but as others prove, we can't all sit alone in our houses forever without longing for companionship. And that's an...
This week's Missed Connections asks a burning question -- do you like to shave? Not yourself, but… other people? If so, there's someone out there looking for you. Don't worry, you're not gonna get paid, so it'll have to be for the love. And you better bring your own clippers. Sounds great, right? That's not all we've got for ya this week, though...
Valentine's Day is less than a month in the rearview, and already the Missed Connections are full of regret. In particular, there's apparently a turtle out there looking to form a mutual Cupid's-arrow-removal pact. This is one time I think y'all might be extending the metaphor a bit too far. But at least it's entertaining, right? Sometimes you...
In the depths of winter, it seems the Missed Connections are getting truly bizarre, and none of it is more bizarre than the person who wants to switch bodies with someone in a nursing home. That's a pretty strange obsession there, friend, but hey… keep 'em coming. This is why we head back to Craigslist every single week. This week also brings us...
