Thank you to everyone who supported my anti domestic violence post, understandably it got taken down because I may have been a lil specific about the appearance & location of the perpetrator, regardless I appreciate the support and willingness to share that in order to make this a safer community.

Hi! I am flying from Burbank to Arcata tomorrow, or supposed to anyways. Weather isn’t looking good up there. This will be my second flight ever, my first was flying here, and I still don’t really understand how these things work and I’m super nervous.

If it is delayed, how soon in advance would I know? How long of a delay is possible? I guess anything is possible, but what’s realistic? Hours? Days? Would the airline provide any kind of compensation if it comes to that? I guess it’s not really their fault but it would absolutely suck to have to get another hotel night, miss work on Monday, etc.

If it is delayed, is there another way I can get home? Would flights somewhere else such as Sacramento or San Francisco be an option? If I did this, are there any car rental places that I can return in Humboldt?

I'm looking to commission a local calligrapher to write out a partner's favorite poem for Valentine's Day. Something large enough to hang on a wall. ~230 words, would love to choose an ink color (if possible) and have it done on nice paper.

There are services online for this, but I like supporting local artists + not having to worry about shipping delays.

Anybody know anyone who does this kind of work? Plus contact info for them? Bonus points if I can support a queer artist ✌️

I've heard that part of Sunny Brae has been referred to as Ammonia Gulch, does anyone know the history of this?

Anyone with local restaurant recipes or must have dishes from your favorite restaurant? I love a good copy cat recipe and trying to re create recipes at home.

It looks like tandoori pizza bites is going to take over dutchy's on 11th and k in Arcata. I'm going to be sad to see this place go as i considered it a bit of a hub for community! I hope tandoori still does slices and cheap beer!

title says it. let me know please!!

I’ve a nice Nakamichi clock radio that took a fall off a table and no longer works. Any recommendations locally or? for repair?

Does anybody know if the Costco in Eureka is part of the planned strike? Costco is definitely one of the better companies but any chance to form a union should always be supported.

I'm basic but I do jitterbeans and northtown coffee Which one do you like I might have to try them out

Best place to buy slow burning candles preferably the ones that smell like pine and that aren’t like 40 bucks

Stoners how do you get your grindes clean and unstuck?

Is there such thing as free community ballet or dance classes for toddlers around here? I have a tutu and dance loving little one but not a lot of funds. TIA!

I wanna build with the lumber from my land. Where do ya'll go? Do they kiln dry it for you? Thanks!

The History Guy YouTube channel just posted a cool little history of the wreck of the USN Cruiser Milwaukee off Samoa in 1917.

This is old, but might deserve a re-watch.

Hey figured it didn't hurt to ask, I'm looking for new friends in the area. I'm a Trans man who's into art, crafts, walking/hikes and very liberal. Feel free to message me if you would be interested in getting to know eachother!

There was a post here a few days ago of a protest/march with pictures of the protest. I commented in there with some tips for keeping the identity of protesters safe in case of government retaliation.

I definitely got some people saying it was an overreaction or extreme, but as of today the white house has made those fears a reality.

In the final lines of this press release, it clearly states:

Now, President Trump has promised that the Federal Government will:

***
Deport Hamas Sympathizers and Revoke Student Visas: “To all the resident aliens who joined in the pro-jihadist protests, we put you on notice: come 2025, we will find you, and we will deport you. I will also quickly cancel the student visas of all Hamas sympathizers on college campuses, which have been infested with radicalism like never before."

Stay safe, keep your fellow protesters safe, keep your identities hidden, especially if you or a friend is here on a student visa

Edit: before anyone comes in here saying "its only for pro-jihadist protests" there were no pro-jihadist protests you dense propaganda ridden bootlicker.

If you’ve never walked the mad river bluffs I highly recommend it, but you’ll notice that invasive ivy has consumed the trees and ground cover. Many large trees are already dead. I’ve begun doing this in my free time but the entire green space is covered and I could use help to keep the forest intact! Thinking it could be like a bi-monthly Saturday thing

Need tires. Where do you get used tires?

Just wanted to shout out a guy doing good work in his small business in town. Near the corner of I St and Hayes in Eureka is CJ, sharpening all kinds of gardening tools. He says pretty much the only thing he doesn't do is chainsaw chains. I dropped off my splitting axe and my hatchet yesterday and he got them both done for a good price in less than a day. The edges are super clean and he cleaned the rust off the rest for me. Super nice guy and I want to get a good review out there for a local business doing solid work.

Edit: CJ saw my post and texted me about it. He's super appreciative and has a great sense of humor. Support local business, especially when they're solid people

I’m on a solo roadtrip with my pup. We’re currently in the Redwoods near Miranda but all of the hikes seem to be closed to dogs.

Also wanting to go see a farm while I’m up here. Is that a thing?

They keep leaving stuff on my door but it doesn’t show any prices and the website makes you signup to see. I have Optimum 500 Mbps for $60 but it goes up every year and I have to call the threaten to leave for T-Mobile home internet every year. Just wondering what the prices and speeds you few that have it already are getting.

As many of us know the Lost Coast Outpost is a far left echo chamber when it comes to the comments section of their articles. I first noticed during the pandemic that any comment questioning anything different than what they were promoting was permanently banned from commenting. Then, during the election any comment/commentator that was not aligned with their far left policies was permanently banned. I understand that LOCO is owned privately by a local man and that the comment section is monitored/controlled by a far left leaning company based out of SF.

I am concerned that this publication, that has the longest reach on the north coast when it comes to news is not serving its community ethically or truthfully. Why would LOCO feel such a need and also put out so much effort into suppressing all of our community voices that challenge what they are pushing. If they are forthright and truthful while being led by moral integrity why would they be so afraid to let people speak freely on the topics that they publish freely to our community?

Ive heard rumors of ICE being involved at winco and some other place in town but Idk how true that is I know kern county has had a few raids so it seems california isnt exactly immune to it. Has there been any or news reporting of ICE involvement in our county?
