I haven’t gone up that way to see what it looks like. I hope your friend is safe.

There are places with power. They’re getting it to places slowly. My neighbors have solar. I’ve also been charging in the car.

I have cell service.

We’re good here. I’m north, off of Merrimon. Still no power. Most of Merrimon seems to have it, except us.

I was just going to say, I drive past this place almost everyday. It’s wild to see Asheville everywhere online. Hope you’re doing well JimmyBigSausage.

I’m a community mental health nurse in Asheville. I work for ACTT. I haven’t had power or running water since last Friday like everyone else.

I have been working out in the community since Monday. I can tell you that supplies have been coming in enmass.

People have been getting food and drinking water without issue. Every patient I have seen this week has been taken care of.

There is a response here. The issue is communication services; wireless phone services. There are connections sporadically. People are having trouble knowing where to get supplies.

We are a strong community who are coming together. No one is without basic needs.

I second Behind the Bastards. I would also check out Knowledge Fight if you like making fun of Alex Jones. Dogg Zzone 9000 is great for just laughing your ass off.

Keep it up. I will always upvote these posts. They give my feed some actual happiness.

I’m not OP, but it’s typically used to treat severe depression.

Knit your heart out man! I’m a guy in his 40s who always wanted to get a physics degree. So I’ve bought a bunch of textbooks. Still at the beginning and learning calculus.
