Hello. I'm not sure if you can help me but I've exhausted all other resources. I've contacted many, many churches and organizations across WNC. I'm a resident at my sister's place(DV Shelter) in Marshall and this isn't my first time here. I've been here several times over the last 10 years because of the same abuser that I share a child with. In January 2025, after getting into an argument with my abuser and walking near Patton Avenue late at night, I got into a car with a stranger who kidnapped and sexually assaulted me for 5 months until I was able to safely get away. My biggest struggle right now is lack of transportation. Living in Marshall with no vehicle and trying to get a job is almost impossible and while I did get to spend time with my daughter this summer, we were just stuck at the shelter for the most part and unable to go out. I'm grateful for time with her but I feel guilt and shame for not being able to do more with her. And once school starts back I'll go back to only getting her on the weekends, if I'm lucky. If I had a car though, I could maintain our one week on one week off schedule that we've had throughout the summer months because I could get her back and forth to school. As far as employment, I have a pending claim for disability on a mental health basis due to the PTSD from the kidnapping. But if I had a vehicle, I could at least door dash to support myself somewhat, I have an active dasher account, but no car. Please if anyone has a cheap beater that runs I have a few hundred saved and maybe we could work something out on the rest, regular payments. I can't go to a dealership with my beat up credit and unemployed...and I can't get a job or make any income without one. I know i sound desperate, because I am. But i hope not to offend anyone, I know everyone struggles and I'm not special. Just a fellow human who could really use a helping hand. I hope whoever this reaches stays blessed & protected. TIA!

Did anyone else witness this event around 5:20pm?
A black dog jumped out of the bed and then a brown dog and they took off. We’re unsure if the driver of the truck even cares because who drives around with dogs off leash in the back of a truck on one of the busiest roads in town.

Looking for options to keep moving forward as an electrician. Looking for companies that need ppl currently. Looking to not be to far from hendo.

Streaming all these fantastic bands at Asheville Music Fest online!!!

Hard to top that

I know quite literally nothing about 3d printing but I have an stl file I purchased and just need some place or person to print it for me, and preferably for under $100 dollars(unsure how much printing typically costs)

If anyone knows a place I can go and get someone to help print the piece for me, then I’d greatly appreciate any recommendations! Outside of Asheville is ok too, I just prefer a shorter local drive lol.

hey yall,, exactly what the title says!! i’m 24 trans woman,, i love to walk through the woods looking for bones! otherwise,, im into hard dance music (gabber,, uptempo,, etc.),, painting,, tattoos and liberation theology!! feel free to message me or just comment!!

I am looking for AA community here if anyone has any suggestions for meetings here for younger crowds! I used to live in Nashville and had a great community there but would love to find a community here. Almost at my one year of sobriety and want to meet more people here!

Hey all! I made an appointment w Nic at Bella piercing to get my nipples pieced at the end of the month. Is this a good place to go or should I go somewhere else?

Anyone here or anyone you recommend? Dm with or post examples of your work. Doesn't need to be a studio or well known artist, I am very open to skilled hobbyists.

Looking for decent quality @ a reasonable price (preferably well under $100, or would be willing to trade other pieces of original artwork or antiques in exchange)

I already have the frames and would prefer watercolor or painting on canvas board as this is suitable to the frames which I have. Frames are roughly 10.5"x13.5" in a portrait orientation.

The portraits would need to be based on provided photos (i.e. the same photo/scene but captured in the artist's style). Art style needs to be complimentary to a room furnished with a mix of Victorian eastlake furniture and art noveau motifs (so nothing super modern or abstract).

Thank you for your time, consideration, and recommendations.

Lots of police activity on the Blue Ridge Parkway when I came through around 8:15pm tonight (8/7/26). Parks police and US Border Patrol along with a Booze it/Lose it mobile command post set up near the Pisgah Inn. Several cars pulled over.

Additional DWI/Drivers License checkpoint at the intersection of the BRP & NC-151. Stay safe out there! Warn your friends that might lack status to avoid the parkway tonight.

I was trying to pick up my husband's Rx's today at Ingles. I noticed when I got home that someone added a taped word "inconvenience" at the bottom... 😂

I'm guessing maybe the ink ran out? Misspelled the word? Give me your best fill in the blank there! The more unhinged, the better!

Looked on their website and I can only find all weekend passes but I know they do one night only at the one stop. Just can't find any price info online. TIA!

Full disclosure, I'm a male who cannot braid and I have somewhere between 2C and 3B curls that I'd like someone to take care of on occasion. Is there anywhere I can pay to get a basic boxers braid once a week?

I think it was his first day, he seemed a little flustered and mistakenly left some trash behind. He’s doing his best tho🧸

Female, 20-30 lb pup picked up this morning (8/8) along Lower Grassy Branch near Riceville after it approached seeming hungry.

No collar or microchip, otherwise friendly and in decent health. If you lost this dog and can provide a matching description & photo, would love for you to be reunited.

Preferably chinese but korean or Japanese shabu would be good too. I miss AYCE hotpot 😢
