Look for increased costs on food, medicine, healthcare, small machines, TVs, thanks to the tariffs put in place by Trump and Republicans. Oh, and look for the economy to start tanking on Monday morning.

So as the title says I’m looking for some safe BLM land to shoot on as the range cost is starting to be a bit much and my property isn’t big enough for anything more than handguns. There is Public land that borders my property but to many people hike and camp there for me to be comfortable doing it there.

I’m in Knox County so I’d prefer it near there but I don’t have a problem with driving a good distance.

Hey all,

Since I started working I'd always used whatever service credit karma offered to file my taxes for free. Now they're with TurboTax, and wouldn't let me enter my 1099SA without joining their "deluxe filing tier" for $40. Which as it turns out was 40 for federal and 40 for state taxes. Oh, and $40 to process it coming out of my refund. So $120 to file through them for a simple 1040???

Googling options gives me a bunch of sponsored results that I'm sure will do the same thing. Id prefer to do this digitally if possible. Is there anywhere I can do this for free?

There is an app called 5 Calls that I just learned about last week. You put your state in and it lists the issues that you can call your congressperson or house representative about and tells you which you need to call and also lists their phone numbers. It also gives a rundown on the issue and any updates as they come out. There is also a script you can read from if you don’t feel like using your own words, but I would suggest reading up on the issue and coming to your own conclusions.

I called both congressmen 3 times last week and left voicemails, which is probably the most effective route to express concerns as constituents. The app is great and makes it easy to keep track of issues that you have expressed concerns about as you can mark them complete when done. If leaving a voicemail be sure to leave your address so your call can be tallied.

I’ve never been one to call senators or congresspeople as I kind of felt it overwhelming, but this app makes it easy. Just thought I would post this in case there are other people who feel overwhelmed about calling elected officials or haven’t heard of it.

Fellow Hoosiers, if u are wanting to get involved, take an hour to listen to this video. They are progressive and looking to change the state. There is good info on how the party system works in Indiana. It is worth an hour….

Speaking truth to dipshits!

Near Indianapolis area would be best if anyone has any suggestions! Looking more for places to drive to at night and look around. I’ve heard about the Haunted bridge in Avon, and I’ve looked for the alleged occult church in Mooresville but it has its address hidden (probably for reasons like this). I’m Just looking for somewhere for my boyfriend and I to take some pictures and look around and go. I’m from Nevada and we have loads of haunted areas outdoors to explore so I was curious if Indiana had any as well!

Any recommendations on artists or shops in central Indiana? Here’s the caveat.. they CANNOT support orange man or this fucked up agenda from Braun & Beckwith. Thanks in advance!

I’ll even streamline the process for you.

Subject: Upholding the Constitution – Impeachment of Donald Trump

Dear (Representative/Governor/Senator),

I am writing to express my deep concerns about Donald Trump’s continued presence in public office and the immediate need for accountability under the U.S. Constitution. As my elected representative, it is your duty to uphold and defend the Constitution, and I urge you to take action to protect our democracy.

Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution clearly states:

“The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.”

Trump has repeatedly demonstrated his unfitness for office and has engaged in actions that meet the criteria for impeachment: 1. The January 6th Insurrection – Trump incited a violent attack on our Capitol, attempting to overturn a lawful election. This was a direct assault on our democratic institutions and the peaceful transfer of power. 2. Convicted Felon – Trump has been found guilty in a court of law, yet he continues to seek public office. A convicted criminal should not be allowed to hold the highest office in the land. 3. Freezing Federal Funds – Trump has threatened to withhold federal funding to states and institutions that do not align with his political agenda. This is an abuse of executive power and a direct attack on the balance of power. 4. Dismissal of Inspectors General – Trump has systematically removed independent watchdogs who oversee government integrity, further eroding accountability. 5. Targeting Trans Youth – Trump and his administration have actively worked to strip rights from transgender individuals, particularly trans youth, violating basic human rights and protections. 6. Ending Birthright Citizenship – Trump’s plan to end birthright citizenship directly violates the 14th Amendment and is an attack on the fundamental principles of our nation. 7. Abuse of Power – From using the Department of Justice to protect himself to attempting to influence state elections, Trump has continuously demonstrated that he prioritizes his personal interests over the rule of law.

As my representative, it is your responsibility to act. Silence or inaction in the face of these violations is complicity. The Constitution is not optional, and the duty to protect it falls on those elected to serve.

I urge you to publicly and forcefully support impeachment proceedings against Donald Trump. Our democracy cannot afford another moment of inaction. Please respond with what steps you will take to uphold your oath and protect the rule of law.

Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Address] [Your Email] [Your Phone Number]

MAGA is trying to come after Todd Young over him apparently being against Tulsi Gabbard’s nomination. Posobiec and Musk have both retweeted stuff about him voting for Lloyd Austin as SecDef and trying to use that to rabble rouse.

I need to hear from people in Bloomington, Columbus, Jeffersonville, Seymour, and Madison. I am potentially running for congress in 2026 in Indiana's 9th Congressional district. What are your biggest issues that actually impact the community's you live in. I for one believe that the infrastructure, particularly roads, in this district and frankly most of Indiana are falling apart so that is one issue I plan to address.

GGG was a family surgeon in West College Corner. GG was the Surgeon General ofthe European Theater of Operations.

I saw a flock of thirteen flying north over the Southern Central part of the state, but they weren't very talkative. Pennsylvania can have Punxatawney Phil.

I received a magazine in the mail yesterday called Indiana Connection. Normally, I'd toss this junkmail without a second thought, but the cover claimed that inside there was an article about "the best pizza in Indiana" (online version linked for your convenience). My interest was peaked.

Turns out, the magazine solicited nominations for readers' favorite pizza place and published that list. No restaurants or actual pizzas were reviewed for this highly journalistic process. The spot that received the most nominations was Taproot Brewhouse & Company, in Pierceton, Indiana. I've never been to this place, but the description of their "pizzas" sounds absolutely disgusting:

“Our number one specialty pizza is named after our ‘How I Roll’ T-shirt that has a bicycle on it. The pizza has country sausage gravy, with onions and our three-cheese blend. Our second most popular pizza is also our most interesting. It’s called ‘Pump Up the Jam,’ after our T-shirt with a bicycle pump pumping a bottle of jam. It’s popular at farmers markets. The pizza has homemade strawberry jam as the base, with spinach, bacon, French fried onions, and the three-cheese blend. After it’s finished cooking, we top it with a fig jam glaze.”

This does not look like pizza to me 🤷

Is slathering sausage gravy or strawberry jam onto a slice of naan bread considered pizza in this state?

Has anyone here visited Taproot Brewhouse (which is also a kitschy gift shop apparently?), and if so, what's your take? Any real pizza places you want to add to the list?

I'm not referring to the residents of these places in general, but specifically the governments of these cities.

I know Carmel tried to sabotage Westfield in 2004 with a surprise annexation and Westfield has been on their toes ever since. But how is the relationship nowadays? Do they cooperate with one another? Are they friends? enemies? frenemies? neutral?

We currently reside in Noblesville Indiana, moved here ten years ago. We rent and are currently getting priced out of the area. I have 4 kids as well. We are looking to relocate but the issue is we need to stay close to a more populated area because I am a massage therapist and need to live close to job opportunities. My husband is a laborer as well and does have some trade school skills but never went to college. We want to keep on the northern-ish side of Indianapolis just because it's all we know but are open to west/east side options. Or if we have to, move further north in the state. But do not wish to go south of Indianapolis. Just our preference, no qualms with southern Indiana. All the areas I look at seem to have the same rental price range as where we live now for our family size. We do have a bigger family so it's harder to find something that with fit all of us comfortably.Obviously I am looking for decent schools and low crime rate but with decent job opportunities. We have looked at the surrounding towns as well and have found some places but again are limited due to our family size. I feel like I am at a loss. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look?

Edit:For those of you who suggest buying a home. Yes we are working on that but it's not in our cards for at least another year or two and most likely will have to move to be able to find something affordable anyway, hence looking for suggestions outside of noblesville/hamilton county.

With or without a place to throw a kayak into the water? Also if you wouldn't mind sharing why it is your favorite place to go camping? Looking for places within say a half/day's drive from indianapolis, max?

Hello everyone, I'm here on behalf of my friend (F) who doesn't use reddit, I'd like to know you recommendations for good therapists (female preferably) around Farmland, someone who's easy to talk to and that is good at making people feel comfortable sharing things. If you still remember how much they charge, that would be helpful too!

Thank you in advance :)

Also mods I didn't find a flair for questions in general so I'm hoping I chose the right one ._.
