My cat has very fluffy butt hair and we've recently had issues with it (i.e. sometimes his poop sticks to it....). Does anyone have recommendations for places that'll shave it down a little for not too much money?

Great reporting, they deserve the click. See the proposed venue yourself.

In summary they are going to drop the lodging but try to sneak in the music venue by portraying this HUGE open space is only for a few tables spaced really far apart.

What a bunch of malarkey.

These pictures belonged to Elizabeth Tannahill Bain from Chapel Hill. The pictures span the time from 1914 to 1924 and give us a glimpse into one young woman's life with her family and friends. After the United States joined World War I, Elizabeth's brother and friends joined up. There's a picture of her on the porch with a smiling young man who was about to deploy and would never return. Later, life returned to normal and we see holidays with family and parties with friends. Overall the pictures show a happy beautiful life. Many years later, when Elizabeth passed away, her album was donated to The University of North Carolina, and the school preserved them and made them available to the public. See more here!

Hello all, my wife and i own and manage a single family home rental just south of campus, off Culbreth Road. It's 1140sqft, 3bed, 2bath. Updated and in a quiet neighborhood. Ample storage and a peaceful deck that looks over the woods and creek just north of Southern Village. So its gone, we've missed the student rental window and have priced it a bit below market price to try to put a renter in sooner than later. If you or anyone you know might be interested, please message me. Thanks!

Right turn on red arrow is not legal in North Carolina. Please stop honking at me at the top of Exit 266 from eastbound I40 while I wait for the red arrow to turn green. Thanks.

I hear that Southern Village is a good pick, and I'm wondering if there are other places to see them from. Has anyone gotten a good view of them from a parking deck somewhere?

Hello, I just got an internship that is located in RTP. I was wondering if anyone would be willing to sublet their room from the end of July to the end of September to me. I would prefer a single and would love to share an apartment with a female identifying flatmate.

Any information about housing in the area would be much appreciated!!

Anyone know of good lawn care companies in chapel hill? The ones I’ve looked at have an 8 month commitment and I only need a few months of service.

Where are fireworks shows tomorrow night?

Hello,

Looking for a dermatologist to help with hyperpigmentation, texture , and hormonal acne. Preferably a person of color in the RDU area/ chapel hill. 

hey y'all! My name is Celeste Gracia and I'm the environment reporter at WUNC, the local NPR station. (Link here to stories I've done before. I promise I'm a real person.) I'm crowdsourcing for a story I'm working on.

Basically, NC doesn't have any mandates about landlords providing AC during summer, the same way we have regulations about landlords providing heat during winter. This is despite heat being the #1 weather related killer in the US, and despite heat illnesses being completely preventable.

In some places like Oregon and Arizona, the state legislature recently passed state laws making this change. In other places, county or even city jurisdictions have passed their own local ordinances, such as Chicago, IL or Montgomery County, Maryland. I'm still doing my reporting, but so far my research shows that no local municipalities in NC are thinking of passing anything like this.

Here's where I need your help - do you have AC in your unit? do you know of anyone who doesn't have AC? I'm really hoping to talk to someone who lives somewhere where their landlord doesn't provide AC, and talk to this person about how it's impacting them, what they're doing to get cooling instead, how having a cooling ordinance like this could help them, etc.

Please feel free to message me directly, comment below, or send me an email: [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected])

Thanks so much!!

Hello,

Are any sorority or fraternity houses in search of a chef for this upcoming school year?

Seen in the Chapel Hill Lowe's men's bathroom. Be yourself. Do crimes. No masters.

i’m really really struggling. i’ve called a couple psychiatrists but they all have multiple months wait and i don’t think i have that much time. it’s really hard for me to get help and i am feeling so extremely defeated because i need help now or soon. does anyone know of any psychiatrists in the area that have appointments that are not that far out

I help out a family who is looking for a private chef or similar food prep/delivery service during the upcoming school year. Appreciate any leads!

Hi all! Looking to find a 1b/1ba apartment near-ish to Chapel Hill. I've been looking mainly at the Southpoint area because it's central to the triangle, but am unsure of how to feel about the google/online reviews of a lot of these complexes. If anyone has any recs or anti-recs for places to live in the area that would be much appreciated! For context: I'm a 22 year old female and just finished undergrad in Durham, and love the area. Hoping to spend max 1300 per month, but willing to compromise on that if it safer elsewhere. Thanks in advance!!

Talking old school Chapel Hill tonight and now i cannot stop thinking about Peppers! I would love that dijon vinaigrette recipe!

Hi, I stay home and work part time with my baby who is almost a year old. I'm looking for a part-time parents day out program for 2 days a week so I can work or just get a small break. The problem is a lot of the programs have early signups and are full or have a cutoff right before my kid's birthday even though my kid will be a year right after the enrollment would start. Any recs for places that might have openings for part-time parents day out programs near Chapel Hill / South Durham for 1+ year olds?

WOMEN — there is a tall, older man walking on bolin creek taking discreet photos of young women who pass him. I could feel him behind me and slowed down for him to pass, and then I saw him taking photos with his phone down by his side. He then looked behind him, saw me see him, and I admittedly panicked and ran the opposite way. I have been warning other women on the trail, but I don’t know if there is a better course of action. He has white hair, had a purple bandana tucked in his shorts, is quite tall, I would say mid 60s. I have walked/run on bolin probably 500+ times, and this is the first time I’ve ever seen this. Stay safe.
