“On October 18, millions of us are rising again to show the world: America has no kings, and the power belongs to the people,” reads the main page on the No Kings website. This Saturday, October 18, Richmond will again find itself on the frontlines of a national...
Welcome to this week's edition of Missed Connections, where masks remain important if you actually want to get out there and miss some connections in the real world. Back in 2019, we never would have guessed that we'd see ads thanking people for finding your mask when it got lost inside a grocery store, but that's exactly the kind of crazy...
After months of coronavirus-related social distancing, we're all finally starting to get back out there, and the Missed Connections are starting to reflect that. And thank god, because things were starting to get a bit squirrelly over there at Craigslist. This week, though, from protest meet-cutes to Phase Two reopenings, people are getting out...
Things are a little light in the world of the Missed Connections this week, it seems. Could that be because everyone's out on the streets speaking their mind? If so, that's definitely not a bad thing. And thankfully, there are still more than a few of the awkward potential meet-cutes we all come to Missed Connections for -- so get ready to dive...
The kinksters are out and about in this week's Missed Connections, and they're getting downright bold. People looking to get tied up, people who want to buy poppers, people who want to hook up with a cop… all kinds of crazy desires are getting aired out here! There's even a guy who wants to pay women to clean their houses, or so he says. Am I the...
Welcome to Missed Connections, where the fact that it's been a really tough year so far is finally starting to dawn on certain of our fearless posters. Let's be honest, at this point the only hope we have is for some positive changes on Election Day in November. If that doesn't happen, 2020 is pretty much unsalvageable. But until we know one way...
It's another week of Missed Connections, where every week seems to bring some new outbreak of crazy. Will the coming reopening calm us all down a bit before the inevitable second wave of infections? We shall see, but for this week, things remain a bit… off in the MC world. Your most clear demonstration is what certainly seems to be a recruiting...
At a time when expensive corporate products are less than hugely popular, Virginia's motorcycle culture is finding new life in vintage shops around the state. On a side road in Virginia, the reflective façade of high-rise office buildings breaks into a dusty sun-soaked street, where the sidewalk briefly gives way to a dirt shoulder lined with...
Welcome to another week of Missed Connections, where we all know shit happens, and sometimes, farts happen too. There's no shame in it, either, even if certain passive-aggressive MC posters are dead set on shaming you for it. Let em rip, y'all! It's still far less lethal than COVID-19. Beyond all that weirdness, the MCs this week are all about...
For journalists during the COVID-19 outbreak, working from home has become the new normal. Marc Davis closes his laptop in his one-bedroom apartment and turns on the television. His day at work is over, but his work mind hasn’t shut off. His office for the time being, like many in America, is in the kitchen. Davis, the sports director at NBC 12...
