I’m downsizing as I’ll be moving in the next year and I’m trying to sell things on marketplace and such. I don’t want to do porch pick up. Is there safe exchange sites in the city? I work downtown so I’d prefer something there but if you know of one (like a police station , Easton/Polaris, or other monitored area) can you let me know?

Any ideas for an affordable baby shower location? Need to avoid breweries (smell of fermenting/fermented yeast can make mom-to-be sick.

Also, the location needs to be indoors with heat since the event will occur this winter.

What judges are willing to enforce some of the rampant adolescent car theft?

Looking to get a vintage fur coat professionally cleaned and can’t seem to find anywhere that specializes in fur cleaning.

Hope everyone is safe. Including animals.

TW: active addiction

Hello! I am reaching out for a close friend of mine.

I am going to try to keep it vague. I am willing to go into more details if needed clarification.

My friend (older than 20, but younger than 30) is married to someone who is in an active alcohol addiction. They just had a baby less than a year ago together and are expecting another one in a couple months.

My friend is a stay at home mom and he works second shift. She is with baby all the time and he thinks because he works and helps financially, that that is enough.

He is in an active alcohol addiction and it’s getting worse. He just doesn’t realize/want to recognize it’s an issue. He drinks everytime he gets up. He has to be drunk to even have a conversation with her. He almost caught the house on fire because he fell asleep on the toilet while there was food on the stove. Then, an argument happened because he fails to realize that falling asleep at the toilet because he is drunk, not hearing the fire alarm go off, a house filled with smoke is an issue and a health concern for a baby is an issue. During this argument, he got physical with her while she was holding the baby, dumped her vitamins down the toilet, and hid her things from her. But the next day he doesn’t remember grabbing her arm and twisting it back like a chicken wing, but remembers hiding her stuff and where he hid it.

He has started holding finances over her head, by saying that he pays for everything and she owns nothing. He only sends her enough money for her bills.

I am giving her a couple of boxes, so she can start packing things up. I asked her why she hasn’t left yet knowing that this isn’t safe and it is because of financial constraints.

Are there any resources for her? What can I do to help as a friend?

We are a small social and co-working group that meets on the first Thursdays of each month at a library or coffeeshop. Our next meeting is this Thursday (Nov 7) from 6:30-7:30 pm. Message me if you'd like to attend! Any kind of writing welcome.

The other day, I was driving on 670 and I saw a red Jeep Cherokee with flashing red and blue lights in their passenger side windshield. Is this an unmarked cop car, or some person pretending to be an officer? I just don't remember ever seeing a unmarked car like this before.

I was just outside in Grandview and I think I saw a shooting star! It was like a light streak and then a flash of white light—very briefly maybe 3 seconds total. Anyone know what I could have seen?

Just saw a flash and maybe a meteor a minute ago - anyone else?

My daughter attends OSU and her birthday is coming up. We want to come down and have dinner with her, but don't know where to go. She's a freshman, so we are all new to the area. Staying close(ish) to campus would be great, but not necessarily a deal breaker. Nothing high end or extravagant. Think 3 blue collar guys, a young woman, and her mom. They are all carnivores, I am not. Appreciate any help!

Anyone know why there were fireworks set off at 7pm followed by ongoing loud music near the Harrison West / Victorian Village neighborhoods?

Love Riley just announced they are opening a bakery in Lewis center. Excited to have more from scratch baking available! https://www.instagram.com/p/DB1a-unO3JY/?igsh=MW40Yzk3azFzdnlyYg==

This year I have been driving my kids to school near Morse Rd year and LITERALLY every other day someone rides my ass in school zones.

Also thanks to the black and purple charger that flicks me off when my kids are in the car.

Hello! I'm currently a second semester in my RN program at CSCC. I just have some questions I would like to ask about the program. I'm currently taking Medsurg and Pharm 2. My rotation for next sem is OB and Psych first then Peds in summer. My first question is whether OB, Psych and Peds are harder than MedSurg or not. My second question is that I heard you need to have like preceptorship at the last sem of nursing school and I would like to know how it is at CSCC RN program. My final question is what the HESI exit exam is like at CSCC and how many scores needed as well as how many attempts they are allowed u to have. Thank you so much and thank you all in advance.

Hey y’all! I’m having some car issues and looking for a reliable/affordable mechanic in Columbus.

My 2017 Hyundai Elantra is having some major issues and I just want to see if it’s even worth fixing. It essentially loses power/all the dash lights come on while driving. RPM’s and speedometer drop to zero and traction control kicks on. The strange part is that it keeps “driving”, just have to floor it basically to get it to move lol

I’m on the west side, but open to anywhere in Columbus really… I will never go back to Germain Hyundai after the last experience I had there, and would prefer to stay away from Hyundai dealers in general ($$$).

Thanks in advance!

If you haven’t mailed yours please do so tomorrow.

If you forget, you can vote in person on Tuesday. You will have to request a provisional ballot.

hey everyone! I need to take my grandma to get a non-drivers state ID. Is there any time/day when the Northland BMV is not so busy? I tried saturday but it was soo busy and she has dementia so patience isn’t her strong suit… If not I was considering driving to the Pickerington one as during weekday mornings it isn’t so bad. She would rather drive in the car with me for half an hour than sit in a line for the same amount of time 💁🏼‍♀️

Looking for tattoo artist recommendations. I’m looking to do a full sleeve at least (may turn into another sleeve and/or chest/back work also). I don’t have all the specifics but know that I want the sleeve to be made up of elements of my favorite video games, movies, books, etc… As far as style goes I’m drawn to more black and grey realism with some pops of color. Maybe ok with more color depending on the design. Would love to work with an artist where I can give the basic concept and games,books, etc I want represented and give them the artistic freedom to run with it. I’m in columbus obviously but willing to travel a little for the right artist. Appreciate the help!

Anyone know what happened to the exotic truck that was always at 14-0?
