This is probably a longshot but I left my red onewheel GT in the parking lot and drove off without putting it in my car. It was in the corner of the lot near the porta potty.

This happened yesterday around 7pm, I just came back now after realizing but its gone of course. I feel dumb even asking but I'd be grateful if anyone could help me find it. It's the main way I get my dog exercise!

Was down in Kent for food tonight and there were what looked like 3 or 4 police cars at the intersection of West Main Street and Gougler with their lights all flashing. Ended up taking a different route to avoid going through, as it looked super crazy.

Curious now. Anyone know what was going on?

I know the willow tree at edgewater park and some willow trees at a shitty park in Canton but neither of those spots would be good for me to propose. I want to propose to my girlfriend under a willow tree. Are there any nice looking willow trees in a nice scenic area nearby?

Hello everyone,

Hi all,

I attended Kent state during the years I stated in the title. Around the area of the architecture building behind Stopher/Johnson hall, there used to be a gentleman who I believe worked for maintenance or cleaning at the college who used to do what is called standing meditation in Qigong. He stereotypically was a small older Asian man with a long white beard and glasses. Does anyone remember this gentleman or know him? Being a lover of martial arts, I always thought it was random this guy was in Kent Ohio. Know this is a long shot but thought it was worth a try. If I get no bites, I may post on the colleges subreddit as well. Thanks all!

For reference, to help jog anyone's memories, the standing meditation pose looks like this:

Hello! Just moved into an apartment in Kent and looking for the most affordable laundromat that still is pretty decent quality. Please leave suggestions 🫶🏼

Anyone here remember an Italian restaurant that was in a family home back around 1995? Just a memory for me, but curious if anyone else remembers. I think it was close to Kent State campus.

Coming to the Kent area to hit some bars with my friends. Suggestions please!

If anyone knows these people. Tell them it’s probably not a good idea to throw your empty cans in the woods.

For anyone into splitting wood I have hickory, maple and honey locust rounds ready for splitting. I believe the honey locust and maple could be ready very soon to burn. PM me if you need any

Hello! I’m currently moving to Kent and not sure what gas and electric companies to set up utilities with. what do you use? Thanks!

Hi,

Kent state alumni here. Looking to meet with people on the last weekend of August! I am down for anything.

Thanks! ☺️

Hi, I hope that you’re fine. I might move to Kent in the following months and I wanted to know how is it there. What will you advise me to do and not to do, what you think that I should know before coming. You know, security wise, foods, etc. Thank you for taking your time to read this and help me out

I hear Kent has a dispensary called Bliss, does anybody know when it will be open for recreational use?

Be safe out there!

I am a college student going to be employed in the Kent area starting in September-I am looking for possible housing, maybe subletting, for the fall semester. Let me know if you know of anything available!!!!

How do I pay? Do I need a specific card or get registered anywhere? Any app to help me get where I want with the bus system?

The landlord at this time and for this review is a nightmare. The original account I posted this from was banned by reddit. I couldn't find anywhere else to leave this and save the next tenets the health risk and headache.

The woodwork is lovely but don't be fooled. The pictures are old from long before we moved in years ago, mixed from both apartments, and hiding the need for vital repairs. he'll tell you he "just had the floors refinished," but neither we nor the man who lived there for 3 years before us ever smelled anything of the sort. He complains about your possessions after you move in and criticizes your furniture and layout, he complains if you use the shared spaces and threatens lease renewal if you don't comply with whatever inane demands he invents that visit.

Anything that goes wrong is ignored or blamed on the tenant. On the first day we moved in, we messaged the landlord that the screen door did not latch. He said "if you are going to be bothering me with minor repairs like this, you won't live here long," before saying he would have it fixed. It was never fixed over the years we lived there. The same day, we opened a fridge full of "repairs" done with dripping gorilla glue and asked for a proper repair or a replacement. He said "all the women are redoing their kitchens, you have to wait", before explicitly saying that he's "not a fan of high maintenance kids ( we were 24 and 26yo at the time) and won't keep us as tenants if we keep calling him (twice at this point)." The first week, our front door came out of the wall. We ended up repairing the wooden molding and remounting the door ourselves because he "didn't want to pay for repairs," and "wouldn't be able to find someone to fix it without spending hundreds of dollars", and we needed a door. By the time he sent someone over, we would have been 3 days with an unsecured apartment.

The kitchen sink leaked when we moved in (he refused to fix it and tried to convince us that it was the condensation from high humidity and to stop complaining). The basement floods badly and has a serious mold and insect problem as a result. Several times we noticed the leak under the stairs to enter the basement running in a continuous and unbroken stream. The garage floods with enough water to submerge a soda can upright when it rains (which ultimately ruined my bike), the bathroom shower isn't attached to the wall and is growing mold behind it. The tub leaks from underneath, which he told us to "put splash guards up" or he'll charge us for the water damage. It wasn't coming from our showers, the pipe under the tub is leaking. He refused to fix it and the drywall will probably start peeling away from the wall again in a few weeks. The paint is peeling from every closet ceiling. The ceiling leading into the basement is falling in. There is water damage on the wooden bench in the living/dining room that you can see in the pictures. He will randomly come into the basement unannounced while you're away and unscrew the lightbulbs to save himself money. The dryer doesn't work and never has, (it turns on, but doesn't heat up) We told him all of this and so he emailed us a "Certificate of Minimum Habitability", refused to fix any problem, and now 4 years of neglected problems, the basement is unusable and smells like a damp cave. The floor isn't wet because of ground water, its because the foundation is washing out from under the building which is why most of the walls are cracked and those cracks have been widening with each year. He doesn't repair between tenants but takes the security deposit anyway for damage done before you moved in. He said he's touring to the next unlucky "two girls" next week. He had the place open for rent 4 days before we even handed over the keys. I hope they see this. 7/26/2024

If you are women looking to rent; DON'T. He will not respond in a timely manner to female tenants who contact him, if ever. My husband had to interface with him while we lived there because he would ignore me and call my husband when I called.

He's a slum lord who got hold of a beautiful place and let it rot into the ground.

Edit: it's confirmed. We went back over to grab some things and he had slipped in between today and yesterday and loosened all of the lightbulbs in the basement. The unstairs neighbors were home and received no warning that he would be visiting.

Edit 2: I had to take the videos down because we may be bringing him to court over this. I'll repost them afterwards.

Edit 3 as of 8/4/ 2024. His ploy to keep the deposit of the window seat water damage failed. He's inventing new shit. He's trying to keep $75 from the deposit because of the trash we left at the curb for free pickup which was picked up the day after we handed in the keys, and $850 for the damage to the wood floors that was also there before we moved in.

Jesus fucking Crist don't give this piece of shit power over anything in your life.

Edit 4: 8/13/2024. he still hasn't returned the deposit. Looks like this might end in court. Leave the place vacant- For your own sakes.

Edit 5: 9/12/2024 we're still fighting to get the last of the deposit back. He's paid $800 and still owes us $150 or so. The evidence document is 43 pages long.

I'm often downtown on Main street working/hanging out, and I noticed there was always a swarm of what I thought were birds around the Kent Stage chimney at dusk.

After observing them for awhile, I silently determined they were bats based on their flight patterns and constant "chirping," I even suspect they may be a brood of endangered Indiana bats, but I've no evidence other than a hunch.

Tonight, I was headed home and happened to see a friend on the street watching the "birds," and I pointed out that I thought they were bats. He said they were maybe swallows, but he was pretty convinced that they were bats by the end of us standing there watching. As I pointed out their flight behavior and chirping noises to him, they slowly disappeared into the chimney! Which is obviously where they are roosting.

Anywho, just wondering if anyone else has noticed them or knows anything about them?
