This Saturday, the Working Families Party (WFP) is making its Virginia debut with the launch of the Virginia Wolf Pack, a new grassroots arm dedicated to electing working-class champions and building political power across the Commonwealth. Their first in-person...
Missed Connections often brings out the weirdest qualities of humanity, but every once in a while, it brings out the best. Such is the case this week, as you'll soon see. And of course, we agree with the poster -- catcalling women on the street is completely unacceptable. Meanwhile, it seems that the action was hot in the campgrounds around the...
The VCU Free Store isn’t large, but it still contains plenty of useful items, from books to kitchen appliances. And -- if you're a VCU student -- it's all free. There may not be such a thing as a free lunch, but right now there could be such a thing as a free microwave that makes cheap lunches cheaper for VCU students. This is thanks to the new...
The American melting pot came together in the River City with The World Heritage Festival’s stop at Brown’s Island. The World Heritage Festival is dedicated to sharing and experiencing a variety of foreign cultures, and it visited one of its new centers for sharing on Brown’s Island in Richmond this past Saturday for a day full of...
I don't know about y'all, but buffets of any kind are a particular weakness of mine. I never would have associated them with Missed Connections, but this week, we'll all learn that some people very much do. Digging in at Golden Corral is just the thing to get some people all hot and bothered, apparently. I guess I get it -- the mac and cheese is...
“It’s more than just what’s in your history books.” BLK RVA showcases the booming black cultural scene that's made Richmond what it is today. In the last 10 years, Richmond has exploded as a creative hub -- in a good way. As someone who was born and raised here, I understand the potential culture this city has to offer, and recently it has...
It's Missed Connections time once again, and I don't know about all you other Scooby Doo fans out there, but I always thought Velma was much more intriguing than Daphne. I guess I'm not the only one, because we have some sexy librarian lust happening in the MC's this week that'll bring back fond memories of everybody's adorable mystery-solving...
School's back in here in Richmond, and if you're riding the bus, you just might find yourself in the Missed Connections this week. After all, we've all gotta get there somehow. We've got a bunch of fun stuff in the good ol' MCs this week, from house flippers who want to flip more than just houses to athletic hikers and flirty Food Lion shoppers....
The longer summer goes on, the weirder it gets here in the Missed Connections. From people who smoke Netflix to unashamed beer belly rubbers in the hardware store, everyone's letting it all hang out this week. And don't get us wrong, we're all for it! If nothing else, it makes for some entertaining reading. We've got all kinds of stuff going on...
It must be a tough summer, because here in the Missed Connections, people are getting downright poetic about their lost loves. But not all the verses are sad -- you'll find REI-inspired poetry is every bit as hilarious as it sounds. It's also fun to imagine that Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston are sending star-crossed messages about their lost...
