Therapists around Farmland, IN

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 ._.

Increase Voter Turnout

I am suggesting Indiana form a fun promotional challenge; A three way challenge between Illinois, Michigan, and Indiana. Our governors or state legislatures should make an annual public wager about which state can increase their voter turnout.

Two measurements:

  1. % of residents that are registered to vote

  2. % of registered voters that vote in each year's elections. (note: Indiana has elections in three of four years)

The wager could be something fun like the 2nd and 3rd place governors have to attend a sporting event chosen by the winner. Or maybe they need to attend the state of the state addresses of the winning state.

Good real estate agent in southern Indiana?

My realtor friend moved away and I am looking to purchase recreational land in southern Indiana. I live in Greenwood, so my search includes anything south of me. Anyone know any good real estate agents that deal with recreational land?

Looking for ~20-100 acres

I’m not looking for residential at the moment but will likely sell my house in the next 4 years. Thank you!

Valpo food rec

Wife and I LOVE Valpo. We kinda like the food. We’ve tried Blockheads. Food underwhelmed. Radius- confirmed food poisoning from mishandled food. Journeyman quality would be good except desperately needs (have been multiple times and never seen) an expediter - food cold, comes up at disparate times. Smokehouse - meh. TBH I’m from BBQ heaven and it’s good for up here, but.

What’s a GREAT place for lunch/dinner. Bonus if they have craft beer, and on the square. Valpo is such a great town and I love going. Pls locals- help a couple from CP/Cedar who loves your town.

Why is the Indiana Reddit so lib? Gets annoying seeing this fish bowl of political ideas when the state is actually hardline conservative. Do people actually think that this Reddit represents Hoosiers?

Hi, I’m taking a Gap year to work before college and earn some money for it. I’m not an indiana resident but I’ll be moving here shortly. Can you suggest me some good jobs that pay well. I’ll be working all 7 days. Can I survive as a independent student here in Indiana? I’m thinking for doing something from ivy tech too

Stay and Fight - Indiana Deserves Better

I get it.

Watching the state government push regressive policies while people suffer the consequences is exhausting. Governor Braun and the current leadership aren’t just making bad choices—they’re doubling down on them. It’s easy to feel like Indiana is a lost cause, like the only reasonable option is to pack up and leave. But if everyone who wants a better future walks away, who’s left to build it? As the saying goes, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good people to do nothing.” Leaving may be the right choice for some, but for those who can stay, abandoning the fight means handing over the state, unchallenged, to the very forces we oppose.

The truth is, no place changes without the people willing to stand their ground and demand better. Every state that’s made progress did so because enough people organized, ran for office, supported local candidates, and refused to let bad leadership define their home.

“Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.”

If we want Indiana to be a place where progressive values thrive, we have to build that reality ourselves. That means supporting grassroots movements, getting involved in local politics, showing up to meetings, voting in every election—not just presidential ones—and reminding our neighbors that change isn’t impossible, just unfinished.

I’m not saying it’s easy, and I don’t fault anyone who decides they need to go. But we should at least acknowledge that when we walk away, we aren’t punishing the people in power—we’re leaving the people who need us the most without allies. It’s also exactly what the WANT us to do, flee.

Instead of just lamenting how bad things are, let’s start talking about what we can do to fix them. Organize. Fundraise. Run. Protest. Because Indiana isn’t lost—it’s just waiting for enough people to refuse to give up on it.

For those of you saying Indiana is unsalvageable, look at your history books. In the 1920s, some estimate that 1 in 3 white men were affiliated with the KKK. The governor was openly affiliated. It had its tendrils deep in all aspects of government. Yet only about 8 years after that, Paul McNutt was elected. His campaign focused on progressive reforms, including expanding social welfare programs, improving labor conditions, and reorganizing state government. He also played a key role in implementing New Deal policies at the state level.

Real change starts with those who stay, who push forward even when the odds feel stacked against them. If we want a better Indiana, we have to build it.

tldr; If you are worried about your safety or well being, nobody is blaming you for getting out. If you are giving up because you think it is futile, it is not. If you are privileged enough to just leave because it gives you the ick now, please consider actually fighting and doing more than just Reddit posts about how bad it sucks.

Honest ?: Is there another, less political, Indiana sub?

This, along with the Indianapolis sub, are soul sucking with the nonstop political talk. I just want a sub with Indiana stuff. Like where to find a great burger or why Larry Bird was a better player than LeBron could ever hope to be. Sometimes the brain just needs a break from the political grinding.

Does this kind of sub exist, or is this the best I can hope for? 🤷🏼‍♂️

EDIT: This now exists thanks to a Redditor on this thread. If interested https://www.reddit.com/r/Indiana_No_Politics/s/ceiGUu0Lc6

If you had the resources to leave where would you go to?

I'll be surprised if I live in Indiana in the next ten years honestly & I've thought of Michigan & Massasscheutts but I was wondering if any of you if given the chance where would you go to if you could.

I'm under no illusion places like Michigan or Massachusetts have their problems but there's just so much BS here to want to deal with constantly in this state.

Do you also see mass exodus of residents here in ten years or population stagnants here?

Confused in Indiana…

Do I have this right?

Sen. Banks wants to defund IMPD?

The right supports pardoning Jan. 6th rioters who beat the shit out of police officers.

I feel like I’m missing something obvious. I thought the stupid liberals were against the police and the right wingers were all about backing the blue. Something isn’t adding up.

Getting hired by the state in am environmental science field - Will I be affected by this new administration?

As the title states, i'm accepting a new job in the environmental sector for the state and i'm curious if i'm setting myself up for failure or if my job is still gonna be needed/safe from being cut. Without going into too many details on my role, its related to working along side the military.

Thank you!

We’ve finally come full circle

Jim Banks threatens to pull federal grants from IMPD if they don’t participate in immigration sweeps. So he’s going to checks notes defund the police?

online birth certificate

I need to get a new copy of my Indiana birth certificate. I live in Washington, so coming to the local health department in person isn't an option. Has anyone used VitalChek to get a new birth certificate and if so, how long did processing and shipping take? The in.gov website says 12-16 weeks processing time, but the VitalChek website says 1-2 business days processing time for their rapid service.
