Starting a new night that I hope to eventually turn into a monthly event featuring live bands fitting under the goth and dark alt umbrella. Ghost Painted Sky is a post punk band coming all the way from Massachusetts, and Summore is an electro pop duo from Columbus opening up the show at 9:30. There will be a vinyl DJ set afterwards! Come dance with us.
I didn’t realize they would be sold out for the rest of the time, anyone have tickets they’re not planning to use? I’ve never been and would really love to go…
My fiance and I have a long hair domestic cat. He has some behavioral issues with marking on doors and pooping on the floor. He has been to the vet and thoroughly examine, he has no medical issues and it is 100% behavioral. We are pretty sure this stems from our other cat who has recently put on meds is getting (what the long hair thinks is) "extra treats". Since our other cat is now weaker, our long hair is now stealing his food and bullying our other cat. He needs to be in a single cat home.
Is there a place we can rehome our long hair?
Heard this rather irritating buzzing, looked up and some oddball had a cheapo-drone out just hovering.

Hello! My husband and I are moving to a new apartment in the greater Dayton area. We are hoping to have someone come do a deep clean before we move everything in just so we can make sure that we’re getting an apartment that’s 100% clean and ready for us (we don’t want any previous tenants’ messes 🙃).
We’d love recommendations for companies that do this and do this well. Small, local businesses with reviews are preferred!
