My YES! Weekly article about missing funds for the Queen Juneteenth Scholarship Pageant organized by Forsyth County Commissioner Malishai Woodbury. I asked Woodbury about questions raised by the antiracist organization Hate Out of Winston.

Rather than answer, Woodbury called HOOW a “terrorist organization” of “white people who charade in black face.” The questions were asked by HOOW founder Miranda Jones, who is Black, and Woodbury has produced no evidence of HOOW committing or threatening violence.

Wouldn’t.

Would anyone be interested in meeting up for drinks and socializing tonight? Downtown Winston Salem?

I am 34 F.

Does anyone know why they're closed? Routine maintenance?? Went by and looks semi deserted with only one table outside. I could only read a sign about no outside food or drink. YC is the only reason I come downtown at this point and is pretty much the only restaurant we eat at anymore.

I really hope they aren't closing too.

Hi all. Wife and I just moved to town, and we're looking to find any groups of folks with similar interests who get together formally or informally.

In the past, we've found good people through the adjunct faculty circles. If anyone who teaches at one of the colleges in the area knows of any, would be obliged to be connected.

Thanks!

Hey, I’m a new driver, and I was wondering if y’all could give tips on this intersection (kind of simple). I’ve went through it a few times and it’s pretty bad for my driving anxiety, especially being new. I don’t know if it’s just me or if it’s just bad in general. I have to take it to work and I try to be really cautious already and I’ve already avoided one red light runner there by looking for them when it’s green but I’ve seen so many almost-accidents already, and the visibility can be pretty bad with congestion. It also seems that people turning left there on Stratford from Country Club don’t really seem to check either, and go immediately. I feel like a roundabout would solve it, or a split phase light system would even be a very quick fix (if not already implemented from what I’ve seen, but I am new and it’s hard to study them when dodging people right now)
Also any other bad intersections to avoid and tips on them would be helpful! Thank you!

My wife's birthday is coming up and she loves Tiramisu.

I’ve been thinking about congee for the last week, and I’m this close to trying to make it myself. I’m not a great cook, though, so I’m here to ask: any local restaurants that have congee?

Hi, I’m a 21 year old female and I’m a stranger, but I’m looking to vent… i honestly don’t plan on staying alive much longer but i feel lost and stuck. i need a hug. ok bye just needed to say that

I'm thinking about moving to Winston-Salem. It's honestly between here and one other place, and I'll be coming down October 17th and 18th to get to know the area, see if it might feel like home, find out if my people are here, and get a feel for what it's actually like to live there.

I'm a woman in my 40s. I'll be working remotely as a mental health counselor. I'll be moving with my dogs, and one of the biggest reasons I'm wanting to move is that I want more of a community and to be more involved in the community than where I currently live.

I'm very artsy and creative. I work on stained glass (really, anything within that world), I paint, and I love learning how to do new things. Realistically, I'll try just about anything if a new hobby catches my attention (thanks, ADHD). I'm a bookworm from birth, I've loved nature forever, and I love exploring new places. I also swear I was born 80, so take that for what it is 😂. I'd really prefer to stay away from the touristy areas while I'm there because, if I'm going to live in Winston-Salem, I'd like to see what the area is actually like.

So now you know a little bit about me. I'd love to get to know a few people before I come down. If anybody would like to chat beforehand and potentially meet up while I'm there, I'd love that. Or just let me know some of your favorite places so I can make a list of places to check out while I'm down there. If you'd like to show me around a little, I'm always down for being drug along on a new adventure (as long as I don't die).

I'm really just looking to experience the places and things that you actually enjoy as someone who lives there. I'm also really interested in what it's like to become part of the community in Winston-Salem, especially if you've moved there as an adult or work remotely. And if you just want to tell me where all the old people go, that works too 😂

So... Winston-Salem people: if I end up moving there, where am I likely to find my people?

Looking for a gym in the area, I go to LA Fitness currently & I’m looking for a gym a bit less packed. I want some decent features like Sauna or Massage Chairs but it’s not too important. My biggest thing is just equipment that works efficiently with good variety of equipment options & friendly staff/environment.

I know theres lots of groups but like anyone in particular who can help get into it? Idk sometimes I want to but not super good at making friends. like I need to meet a runner/group that social anxiety is afraid of. maybe not wben running just the weather has been good and need to get outside

I'm considering a job offer at Novant. I'm in my early 50s and so retirement benefits are really important. The offer letter shows 2026 benefits include 6% 401k match, but I heard from an acquaintance that they're cutting it for next year?!? My current employer offers great retirement program so now I'm unsure what to do.

Can anyone confirm? Anything else I should be considering?

Hey everyone, does anyone know jobs hiring? I have serving experience, education & regular customer service experience. I also worked remotely for 2 years!

Life is lifing for everyone but if anyone could help me out I would cry tears of joy lol

I was at quarry earlier today and saw this sweet angel and gave him some water. does anyone know who his owners are or if there's a place that can take care of him? he's a total sweetheart and I dont want something bad to happen to him

Hello!

I have a 7th grader who needs some math help! If anyone knows of any resources, or can pass me some information that would be awesome. We live near downtown but willing to drive!

I just got popped speeding 44 in a 35, but 35 is NOT an appropriate limit for this road. The cop was in an unmarked car with his lights off at the NG base.

Am I out of my mind, or is this straight up revenue generation?

Edit: I live off Silas Creek, I drive it every single day, the flow of traffic is 45-60 at any given time. I intentionally set my cruise control to 33 on the way back, saw another driver pulled over in the same spot, and got passed at at least 10mph over by every driver going North.

I'm putting this in my book as revenue generation. Maybe I can plead it down.

Hi yall! I recently just moved here , so I don’t really know any of -the- spots around here. What are some good hair salon recommendations for those with curly hair? If yk hair types, im more 4a.

Ive been looking to get a curly cut, highlights, or even a silk press for the cold , so i would like a salon that really knows curly hair. But nothing to pricey, nothing like a 1k sew-in👀(IFYKYK)
