As some of y’all may have seen, this old bonehead Richard Rygaard has been spotted in both #WestAsheville and downtown #Asheville in the past few days. Rygaard is the former drummer of neo-nazi metal band Bound For Glory.
*** Keep your eyes peeled for Rygaard in the greater Asheville area, and send us any tips with more information or sightings! Ashevilleantiracism at protonmail dot com ***
Rygaard has lived in NJ for at least the past decade, and recently popped up on local NJ antifascists radar when he caught a drug possession charge last year. It’s worth noting his case is ongoing and the final court date/pay-by-date for the fine was yesterday 8/29/23…
This is also the day he was seen at local record store Static Age Records to sell some records. Keep your eyes peeled Asheville!

Police in #Asheville used their new drone unit to surveil and harass hundreds of attendees at the grand re-opening of the @firestorm bookstore.
"It’s only been three months since the Asheville Police Department announced the launch of a new Drone Unit. Speaking with the Mountain Xpress, an APD Captain assured the community that the technology would not be used for “surveillance on the unknowing public.” But that’s exactly what is happening..."

This morning I found an old Normals bookmark. I once had a lot of them. They were my favorite bookstore/ record shop in Baltimore. Or rather, all of Maryland. If I ever make it back to #Maryland I will be sure to make a special trip to #Baltimore just to stock up on books at Normals. I’ve been considering a trip to #Asheville, NC to visit @firestorm . #books #bookstodon

Leaving #Asheville after a stop at Shanghai Dumpling House to get some dumplings. I started with their pork soup dumplings with hopes to get steamed pork dumps after but I'm too full. When we go to NYC I focus on filling myself with handmade dumplings, so this place was great to have.
I also went to Dobra Tea right before to get a Chai with oat milk (as I am sensitive to dairy as I recover from C. Diff).

Playing #pinball this weekend at the pinball museum in #asheville. Managed to get a high score on a machine. 😊 And apparently disc RPM champion for my wild flailing to avoid draining. Some cool old games here!
