Editor's note: In December 2025, the The Joint Commission on the Future of Cannabis Sales wrapped its final public meeting on the future marketplace. This interview with Eric Spencer happened at a CSBA meetup at Bingo Beer Co. in Richmond. Eric Spencer said it...
Here we are for another week of Missed Connections, where the pickings get steadily slimmer as the sadly-departed cesspool that was the Casual Encounters page on Craigslist continues its gradual takeover of what we once knew as one of the most fun internet pages to read. SESTA/FOSTA, what have you wrought? Endless posts about pipe, wood, and...
Welcome to another week of Missed Connections, where we are simultaneously concerned and cautiously optimistic. Will tomorrow's inauguration bring a new dawn for the world? If so, it might lift the spirits of the many lovelorn folks we find speaking from the pages of Craigslist this week. It seems wintering isn't working out so well for a lot of...

I wouldn't blame any of you if you're not even going to that page on Craigslist anymore, just waiting for me to do it so you don't have to click through a million of those spam posts with the circled letters. After the year we've had, it seems like...

Welcome to Missed Connections in Richmond, Virginia, where the once-fertile fields of Craigslist are drying up to the point that we are now harvesting choice morsels from neighboring DC. OK yes, this is the kind of thing I once said I'd never do, but when people are engaging in amusing hyperbole over the receipt of an anonymous coconut, you can't...
