Stolen bike

On November 11th, my bike was stolen from bayshore mall, my lock was cut off and laying on the ground when I came outside. It's a black and blue bike with the brand name vivi direct written on the side. I called the police when it happened and again a few days ago when I saw someone on Facebook marketplace attempting to sell it. The police are hopefully trying their best but they haven't exactly been helpful to my situation. Anyone have advice on what to do from here?

Ps watch your bikes.

Speeding Ticket In the safety corridor

Hello this Is my first time getting a speeding ticket and was wondering what would be my best course of action. Was going back to HSU campus from the bay and got pulled over for going 60 in a 50. I didn't realize how fast I was going as I was on faster roads earlier in the day and didn't realize it until I saw the cop pull out behind me. Would best thing to do is show up in court and try to appeal and do traffic school?

Question for the aquarists and similar hobbies in the coastal part of Humboldt (Eureka, Arcata, and all neighboring counties)

Did anyone else have a sudden pH spike about a month ago? My tank with a pH of like 6.5 spiked up to over a 10 about a month ago. I heard that it happened to others too, so I thought I’d ask here. (Ngl I forgot this app existed for a bit, woulda asked earlier if I thought about it.)

Best local option for budget Christmas Trees?

It's been about a decade since I've purchased a Christmas tree, and today I found myself in a state of sticker shock when visiting a couple of tree lots in Eureka. Jeepers, these things have gotten pricey! Unfortunately, going out into the wild and cutting my own isn't an option, but I'd love to get an invitation to the secret hidden bargain Xmas tree lot that's only available to the lucky locals who are "in the know." If not, please give me your best recommendations for budget trees. Thanks! 🎅

Considering a move

Hey Humboldt, I’m a 28-year-old BIPOC guy living in Oakland, and I’m thinking about moving up to Humboldt for a fresh start. Life here has been heavy—too many reminders of my ex—and I feel like a change of scenery could be good for me. I’m curious about the dating scene in Humboldt. Is it easy to meet people and build connections? How open and welcoming is the community, especially for someone from a different background? Career-wise, I’ve been studying animation and drawing, but I’m looking to pivot into something more stable, like environmental conservation or renewable energy. Humboldt seems like a great place to start. Any advice on good fields to focus on, or how to break into the local job market? Would love to hear your thoughts on what it’s like to live, date, and work in the area. Thanks in advance!

Guy who was looking for work - I have something, at least temp, or part-time. You posted a week or so ago

Hi. I'm sorry I don't see your post. You posted about needing work, and I need help. I have a number of jobs, mostly outdoors - some even enjoyable, like helping with camping equipment and activities. I'm a nice person, will pay a fair wage. I need to be outdoors - it's why I moved here. But organizing my equipment, setting up camp, etc is hard because I have stuff at a couple places, and surprise! My truck got broken into last week in a city lot in Eureka, because I needed help unloading it, and kids were too busy to help, and I was traveling to the east coast too often to get organized as quickly as I should have. I lost a LOT. I'm trying not to let it sour me on this beautiful place. I love it here. But I'm absolutely heartbroken at the loss, and I'm not replacing stuff till I know I can secure it away properly. Anyway, that's my story. You seemed honest, and if you don't have work yet, I can at least offer you a job till the holidays, and it will be almost all outside activities. Dm me, and maybe we can talk further. Thanks.

Looking for a book on Karuk language.

I got it in Karuk language class in Orleans years ago. It was a dictionary and book of phrases I believe. It was white, small, red tribal patterns. Anyone seen one? Cant seem to find it just upon that information alone.

UPDATE on Missing Woman Hannah Kobayashi... it is now even more likely she is in Humboldt.

Hi everyone, if you saw my last post on this thread, you know I shared that it is possible Hannah is in Humboldt looking for work near Richardson Grove St. Park.

Well, with the latest update, it is now very very very possible Hannah made it or is on her way to Humboldt. She was confirmed to be seen on 11/12 around 6:30 AM at the Greyhound terminal at LA Union Station. This means Hannah is expected to be traveling far. We know Hannah stated she was going to try to take a bus to the Redwoods and find work, so it is possible she is going through with that plan.

If you see Hannah please do not approach her, call 911 as well as the phone numbers on the flyer attached.
