ActNow campaign text

Did anyone else in town just get a text from them? It seems the landlords are now selling our PI to push for the candidates who want to remove rent control? The first red flag was the landlords plastering their campaign signs over every property they own 🚩🚩🚩

Early Voting Question

Does Asbury allow early voting, and did I need to do something other than register to be eligible to vote early?

Don't worry, I'm voting for the correct candidate.

Swimming in November?

Hello! I have some family visiting NYC and some of us wanted to take a short trip to the beach next week.

Is a ghost town at this time? Is swimming allowed, and if so what should be expected?

Open to all suggestions! Thank you for your time!

Tattoo apprentices?

Hi! Looking to get another small tattoo when I visit NJ next month :) I love supporting apprentices to build their portfolio, and it's usually easier on my minimum wage paycheck lol, although I of course tip! Anyone in the Asbury Park area that has booking/walk ins available?

Looking to offer continual monthly data analytics, marketing, and other business services/part time in-person labor in exchange for fully paid room/apartment.

Update: not looking for your ignorant opinions on my mental condition. Just looking for an arrangement from someone whose been through this. I appreciate everyone's, unique input, but I really am looking for someone who has been down this path before, specifically burnout, as they'll have a richer understanding of my current position. I probably should have been more specific about this. Any other remarks towards my mental health, or for that matter your moral indignations, will be reported and deleted. I'm just looking for help, and I'm honest to ask for that. Is that really so offensive in today's society?

Looking for a local business person who has an extra apartment/room who is willing to rent out for free in exchange for monthly professional services such as data analysis, market research, operations analysis, integration of artificial intelligence, content creation (blog articles, tik toks, etc)...

I've had a lot of rough months, as has my wife. I really made a lot of mistakes. And Im just trying to recover from my occupational burnout, which I've attempted to do now for a year.I would love to provide these services for someone, in exchange for a room, or even better, an apartment. I know that's risky for a lot of folks. I get it. A little bit about me to not scare you off:I was a professor (and im a life long teacher) at 8 different universities, including Northeastern University.

Long story short, I had a mental break down because I was working for about a 10 year time span over 120 hrs a week with undiagnosed ADHD and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. The pandemic didn't help with stress either. Unfortunately, I abruptly quit my job, and coincidentally, moved into Ocean Grove. After a few more rough months in my personal life, I lived alone away from my kids. I was in OG, my kids and wife in NNJ. To be honest, I did have a tough time paying rent, and I had the blessing of friends and family to help me get by.

My grandfather was Myles C. Garvey. He owned the Albatross Hotel in OG, and he was the President of the Ocean Grove Chamber of Commerce (and, I believe, their founder, prior to changing their name back in the 80s).I am in a tough spot personally. I struggle with my family. We don't see eye to eye on many things, yet I do love them. I'm really just looking to recover from my burnout, and just get out of everybody's hair. But also have sufficient funds to see my kids on a weekly basis. Daily would be great too.

If you don't know much about burnout, it essentially is when your body refuses to work due to being over worked. It shuts down. You live in a haze. Hours don't seem to matter. Its like being on a hampster wheel for centuries, in what was only days. Then you have a breakdown, and loose all of what you worked for.I'm past the breakdown. That's reality. I'm now looking for a way out of the chaos that is my day. The distractions, honking, moral indignations as you continue to apply away, try to do anything for money... nothing is working...

I need help, and i need income, to help support my kids. I need to work on some project ideas that I'm looking to monitize, so I can sustain the support for my kids. Im mostly into developing out web services that can generate ad revenue, but also video games and more sophisticated financial and economic global subscriptions services to deliver insights on AI based platforms I'm developing.

The problem: burnout really kills your motivation to tackle these projects. I'm looking to help any local business owner with their data, with their content, anything really, who has an extra room, and needs help with their professional business services. Even if it is just helping you get your hotel prepped for the following season. I'm good at marketing and digital marketing services as well.

At this point, I don't care what anyone has to offer work wise. I'd be full ears for a conversation. I'm really good at gardening too! I even have done some aeroponics.I also really miss Asbury Park. I felt that I was on my way to recovery before I abruptly left. I really would love to be able to see the residents on the beach in the morning again. They always lifted my spirits up so that I can push past the negativity, and try to focus on recovering for my wife and kids.Anyone, who has anything available. I'm willing to listen. Can't promise I'll accept. But I'll listen!

69% of NJ is in drought and we're on pace for the state's driest October on record (going back to 1895). Here's the deal.

Restaurants open on the boardwalk in December?

Thinking of taking a friend from NYC to Asbury Park during the month of December. Would like to spend a Saturday afternoon shopping, going to the arcade, and having a nice lunch. Will the shops and restaurants be open?

Local Track

Just moved here! I love running and would like to know if other runners have any recommendations on local tracks to run at in the area. Has anyone ever run on Asbury High School's track?

My favorite picture I took of the boardwalk

I was walking on the boardwalk one quiet night and just started snapping pictures because of the vibe, it was almost creepy because of how empty it was, but not in such a negative way. Probably closer to nostalgic. Anyway, enjoy!

This week at the Showroom Hitchcocktober moves in with The Birds!

This week's second to last film, presented in conjunction with The Asbury Park Movie Club, in Hitchcocktober is the classic The Birds at 7. There might be a second show added if needed at 7:15 and I promise I won't end it early either.
