    What's your favorite local sour dough bread?

    I've been eating a couple of different styles from the Moxie Bread Co but I'd like suggestions on other worthy sour-by-fermentation sour dough breads to try.

    Recommendations for apartments for young professionals?

    I’m looking for an apartment that houses a lot of young professionals, but not university students.

    I tried calling around to a few complexes and asking if there were a lot of current students living there, but due to fair housing laws, they couldn’t tell me anything.

    I’d hate to sign a lease somewhere and have there be a bunch of loud college kids at ungodly hours when I’m trying to sleep well and wake up early for work, and I’m sure there’s some of you that were/are in the same boat.

    Would love any recommendations! Looking around the downtown/crossroads area, preferably one of the nicer ones with a pool and such, but open to any recommendations really

    Good GI doctors well-versed with Ulcerative Colitis/Pouchitis

    Initial stages of planning our move to Boulder.

    Any good GI doctors in Boulder who are experienced in treating Pouchitis. When we lived in Golden back in 2015, the GI doctors I encountered were total A*s. Their solution was to start on all the medications that led to my colon removal in the first place.

    As a point of reference, here in Ann Arbor, my GI doc started me on a biologic that has been life altering. Furthermore, the same GI doc went to war with my insurance company to ensure that I could take the med every 6 weeks instead of 8 weeks. The insurance company tried to argue that there was no literature supporting 6 weeks, but this doc straight up pulled up her own peer reviewed research and roasted them.

    A simple google search shows one doc who seems to be on the cutting edge of research (Dr. Steinberg)

    Take a couple of minutes to watch this disturbing video of the last City Council Meeting.

    It is deeply disheartening to witness protestors disrupt a city council meeting in such a disrespectful manner, not only toward the council members but also toward one another. The situation escalated to the point where an 18-minute recess was required while law enforcement intervened to clear the chambers. This behavior undermines the very spirit of civil discourse and collaboration that our community relies on to address important issues. Disagreement is a natural part of democracy, but it must be expressed with respect and consideration for others, so that productive dialogue can occur and real solutions can be found.

    Anchan Thai

    I would highly suggest this restaurant to anyone that enjoys authentic Thai food. My wife is from Thailand and she loves this place. Everything we’ve tried is incredible. The owners are super friendly. The wife who is also the chef is from Thailand, and was trained as a chef in Thailand. The location is a little weird, but it’s so worth it. Wife swears it’s the best Thai food we’ve found in the state, and only place in the US she’s had that compares is a very highly rated restaurant in New York. Just want to see them get busier because we want them around for years to come.

    Edit: By location being weird, I mean not in a usual spot. The inside of the restaurant is very clean, and has lots of cool Thai decorations.

    Thx to Whoever Paid My Drink At T-Zero Lounge

    On my way back home on bike and decided to take a rest at the T-zero lounge. Got a cup of apple cider and enjoyed my time by the fire place. Some nice stranger paid my bill before I left. This sure warmed up my night, better than the cider or the fire pit!

    help with a Cub Scout activity -- looking for local organizations

    I lead a co-ed group of Boulder Cub Scouts who are all in the fifth grade. I'm looking for a little help with one of the requirements these scouts need to fulfill. Here is the requirement text:

    Meet with a representative of a faith-based organization in your local community who provides a service that assists people in crisis regardless of their faith. Identify who they help and how.

    Specifically, I'm hoping someone can point me at a couple local faith-based organizations that provide services that "assist people in crisis regardless of their faith." If anyone wants to point me at an organization that does the same but isn't "faith-based", I will take those suggestions too!

    Thanks in advance!

    Edited to add... Even though I only need reps from one or two organizations to talk to the scouts, I'd love to collect a really broad list of possibilities.
