![The image is a black and white photograph depicting an urban street scene. The central focus of the photo appears to be a church or government building with prominent architecture, including columns supporting its porticoes at both ends. In front of this structure, there's a clear view down what seems to be Main Street during Saturday afternoon in Pittsboro, North Carolina.
The street is lined on either side by various commercial buildings and businesses, some displaying signs like "Jones Bros., Dept.- Stores" which indicates that it was taken from the early 20th century onwards. Parked cars are visible along both sides of the road, with one moving vehicle in sight towards the middle distance.
The sky is overcast or appears to be quite cloudy, giving a dull ambiance typical for black and white photography without color contrast due to lighting conditions at that time period. Shadows cast by buildings suggest it's either early morning or late afternoon when sunlight may not reach as far into urban areas with tall structures.
There are few pedestrians in the vicinity of this street scene which could indicate quieter hours on a Saturday, although it might also be indicative of less traffic common during certain times and days within town. The overall feel is one of stillness captured mid-day or late afternoon activity without much hustle-bustle typical for urban settings at busy moments.

![The image depicts a group of people gathered outside the entrance to "Jones," which is identified by signage above that reads, 'JONES $1& TO $5 DEPT.' The store appears to be offering various items at different price points. People are standing in front and around the storefront; many appear engaged with each other or looking towards something out of frame.
The individuals vary in attire, suggesting a casual setting from an earlier time period, possibly mid-20th century based on fashion styles such as wide-brimmed hats, overalls, dresses with stripes, and polka dots. The photo is black-and-white which may imply it was taken during or shortly after the 1940s to early '50s.
The architecture of the building features a storefront window with curtains drawn across its bottom half. A neon sign that reads "TOM" hangs on the left side, partially obscured by individuals in front of the store. The environment suggests a downtown area during business hours on what might be considered market day or another shopping occasion given the crowd's focus and interaction.
There is no discernible activity within the shop itself from this angle; it appears to either have closed for the time being with people gathered outside, perhaps waiting in line due to store policy at that moment.

The US island that speaks Elizabethan English
Native Americans, English sailors and pirates all came together on Ocracoke Island in North Carolina to create the only American dialect that is not identified as American.

I found his YouTube channel and there is some interesting stuff there for disabled folks having to deal with the US legal system.
He's pretty pugnacious, but my take is that he is tired with unequal justice and the way that actors in the US judicial system will flout the law to support hegemons.

PeerTube port of a YouTube channel upload. Very opinionated in its title, but also correct in saying the judge is wiggling out.
"This judge, Jeffrey Moreland, in Currituck County NC, claimed that the Americans with Disabilities Act entitled him to require PROOF of disabilities and/or have medical support for accommodations request. When I challenged him to show what authority he was alleging, he CHOKED on the bench!"

#NorthCarolina: #DareCounty’s free #SeedLibraries are ready for #SpringPlanting
March 6, 2025
"According to the Dare County Extension Master Gardeners, it’s time to start propagating seeds, and if you’re in search of some special seeds to get you started this season, the Dare County Library has you covered with its free Seed Libraries program.
"Thanks to generous donations made by Burpee Seeds, Sow True Seed, Seed Savers Exchange and Lowe’s Home Improvement, the Dare County Library’s Seed Libraries are fully stocked and ready for 2025 spring planting.
"The Seed Libraries are free to the public, and are available at all three Dare County Library locations, including #HatterasVillage.
"Launched in 2022 as a means to share seeds in communities with #FoodSecurity issues, the Dare County Library’s Seed Library program provides a variety of vegetable, herb, flower and plant seeds that can be 'checked out' from all three Dare County Library branches with the intention of growing them locally.
"Growing instruction cards are available to assist with every type of seed, and a live inventory can be found in the online Seed Library guide.
"After the plant has matured, growers are encouraged to harvest and donate some of their seeds back, thus making the Seed Library truly local and sustainable.
"The long-term goal of the Seed Library is to give locals access to plant varieties that grow and thrive on the #OuterBanks while also providing the knowledge needed to maintain kitchen gardens and reduce household overhead.
"A mix of commercially and locally harvested seeds are available year-round, with types and quantities varying based on supply. A variety of new seeds will also be introduced this year, including celery seed, cowpeas and mustard seeds, among others.
"In addition, the Seed Libraries currently have new varieties of several old favorites, such as three new types of basil, as well as carrots and an array of different lettuces to make the perfect salad—plus so much more.
"For additional information about the Seed Library program, please stop by your local branch or visit https://earlibrary.libguides.com/DareCountyLibrarySeedLibrary

The MVP Southgate is an extension on
the dirty, dangerous, and unnecessary Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP) in Virginia and West Virginia.
Its a spur to connect the existing MVP route across the border of Virginia into North Carolina.
The MVP has been defeated multiple times, now we need to do it again - and we have only been given until March 11 to comment!
