Counterpoint: Chris is one of the people that makes Durham the special place it is and there are lots of different kinds of poetry and it’s great to celebrate them all even the ones made by a guy in a fox suit with a typewriter.

Ten years ago today, I was elected to the Durham City Council.
Thanks, Durham. That was awfully nice of you.

Maybe instead of the guillotine they could drag out one of these, that would be great. 👍🏻

Finally, Ward 3 incumbent Chelsea Cook easily wins the primary against second place finisher and political newcomer Diana Medoff 60% to 25%. The two candidates will meet in the November general election. The race's sole Republican, Terry McCann, garners just 11% of the primary votes.

Incumbent Mark-Anthony Middleton advances to the general election against challenger Shanetta Burris, but Burris showed considerable voter appeal in winning the primary 49% to 40%. The mayor pro tem has some work to do if he is to win re-election in November.

In the primary's closest race, challenger Matt Kopac outpaced Ward 1 incumbent DeDreana Freeman by just 452 votes. This will be the race to watch in November as these two meet in the general election. Any endorsements from the third & fourth place finishers King and Cazales will matter!

Incumbent Mayor Leo Williams and challenger Anjanée Bell will face off in the November general election. The primary vote went for Williams by 55%-30%, so newcomer Bell (who is fmr Mayor Bill Bell's daughter) has an uphill climb. Super psyched to see the horrible Rafiq Zaidi get crushed.

I reread the draft ordinance linked in the story below and it certainly seems that it would criminalize feeding stray cats and so this is me letting you know that if this ordinance passes I will be a criminal. 😻

I’ve been dipping my toe back into the /bullcity subreddit (I know, I know 😂) but this reply to a comment discussing which members of the Durham City Council generally vote for or against proposed rezonings has me questioning my life choices…

Bit of a day — took Rose to preregister to vote in the 2026 elections, then took her to a fundraiser for our next US Senator, former NC Governor @roycoopernc.bsky.social 😍😍😍

@laurareece.bsky.social and I celebrated the 19th anniversary of our first date with dear Paris friends. A lot of things about our lives since that first date — kids, business success, politics — were sort of easy to predict. But moving to Paris?! That was the plot twist that no one saw coming. ❤️🇫🇷😍

Simplified the process: white cake, vanilla buttercream frosting, a layer of strawberry jam between the cake layers and fresh sliced strawberries on top. 🍓🍰😍

This is the text of a recipe variation I’m making this week. Can anyone help me understand what “drain 2 cups strawberries” means in this context?
