I have a friend visiting over Veteran's Day weekend and want to make sure we can accommodate her dietary needs when we go out to eat! Any recs? Closer to San Marcos would be best. Thanks in advance, Reddit Brethren

Any recommendations for furniture assembly for furniture items - dressers, sideboard, living room cabinets, etc that come in a box in a bunch of pieces. Thanks.

Anyone know of places that might have candy deals today? Does Costco still have candy? Should I try the business center?

What are the best neighborhoods to trick or treat in? The neighborhood we live in is completely dead because it’s impossible to walk, so everyone always goes to other neighborhoods. We did Shadowridge last year and I remember going to a Carlsbad neighborhood a few years ago. Where would be the best place to take little ones?

I am training for a half marathon and am looking for places in north county to train. What are some flat places where I can run up to 13 miles either there and back or in a loop, preferably along the coast. Thanks!

in desperate need of a cafe in North County with wifi and overpriced coffee and flirty baristas where I can post up with a used book or my notebook and pretend to be the main character. drop your recs, help a sad girl out <3

We haven't lived here long enough that I feel I know local politics well enough to cast many educated votes, however, I like to vote against MAGA candidates wherever I live. We're specifically in Vista.

Assigned Units: ?B217, ?E211, ?E212, ?E213, ?E217, ?RA212, ?T217, ?TIMER1 I’ll give updates until the incident is clear.

School board elections are coming... And so are the Moms4Liberty book banning candidates! They have a new priority agenda announced by their National Leaders at their recent summit convention in D.C.

1. Double down on the book banning; 2) Out LGBTQ+ students in our schools; 3) Target and harass librarians and teachers who support their LGBTQ+ students.

M4L. Who are they? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki

Who funds them? https://www.pbs.org/newshour/education/far-right-group-moms-for-liberty-reports-more-than-2-million-in-revenue-in-2022 / https://www.propublica.org/article/inside-ziklag-secret-christian-charity-2024-election

What is their true agenda? https://apnews.com/article/moms-for-liberty-trump-2024-election-harris-7c252c611b5bc73c333a24392b979372

Do not be fooled. M4L is not interested in actual parent involvement in public schools; they are not advocating for all parental rights - just theirs, to decide what YOUR children learn and read. They want to enforce their political and ideological agenda of Christian Nationalism into our public schools and override all other parental rights regarding a safe and inclusive education for ALL students. They literally want to determine what everyone else's children get to read and learn in public school. They are overtly anti-teacher, anti-librarian, and proudly homophobic/transphobic when it comes to our LGBTQ+ students. They are not about keeping all students safe. They are about targeting certain students for harassment and exclusion. They are a designated hate group by the SPLC.

And oddly, a number of their national and chapter leaders have very questionable personal behavior involving everything from public sex scandals to arrests for theft rings (feel free to Google). These are not grassroots “moms” interested in “parents’ rights” or the safety of children in schools, they are a front for a political agenda to remake our public schools in the image of their Christian Nationalism ideology. Research who funds them. Ask if your school board candidates are endorsed by them, or if they have taken the M4L Pledge: https://www.momsforliberty.org/pledged-candidates-elected-officials/

Fun fact: the local San Diego M4L chapter leader has a personal social media history, on every social media, of doxing and harassing local teachers and LGBTQ teenage students (feel free to research, as well as your own local M4L candidate’s social media history): https://www.instagram.com/p/C_V283fOmNS/?igsh=cTNqcGVhNjg2eTk4&img_index=1

Can anyone recommend a reliable fire restoration company or anything similar ? The only ones that I have heard of are service master and serve pro and I'm hearing mixed things about both. Advice or shared experiences are appreciated.

New homeowner in Carlsbad and would appreciate any recommendations for pool service providers in the local area.

Up vote for Harris Down Vote for Trump

I just think it’s funny how when driving down el Camino as soon as you cross from Carlsbad to Oceanside the signs on the businesses and lawns go from Harris to Trump. Just an observation

As the title says my family is moving to Del Mar. My business is very profitable so far in San Diego County and East County. I have only a few clients in North County. If you check my Instagram page you will see my work on Tesla's, Porsche's, Mercedes, BMW, Audi, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lexus etc. I go anywhere. Your home, job, hair appointment, kids sporting events etc.
