Yolanda/P Hill/Franz Kafka at the new apartments. A bunch of repaving was done along with installing lights. The new intersection is pretty big. This was the perfect opportunity for a roundabout. The amount of traffic that backs up there at both morning and afternoon rush hour is already bad, adding the apartment traffic and the Franz Kafka connection is going to make it worse. Why not roundabout. Are they stupid? (That’s a rhetorical meme)

Hi there,

I have been holding on to a bunch of wine bottles that have cool label art on them and was hoping to repurpose them as candles. Was wondering if anyone knew someone locally who does this versus me having to mail them out to someone and pay a bunch of $$$ for shipping. Even if they can just cut the bottles for me that would be great too. Thanks!

Hello!

Does anyone have any recommendations for a gym that offers childcare? I called 24 Hour and Park Point and they don’t offer those services anymore.

Thank you in advance.

Are there any leagues around here that anyone knows of?

Hello all!

I'm not sure if I'll find what I'm looking for here but... I'm struggling to make new friends as a young adult despite going to college and having a job. I just haven't had the opportunity to really "click" with anybody, I guess?

I created a little Discord server, and I've settled on the idea of maybe putting up flyers with the QR code around my college with permission. But I was thinking I'd also try to ask coffee shops/cafes if I can put them up inside them too! I asked on the Starbucks subreddit already and I think it's unlikely places run by large corporations who especially care about public image, etc. would allow managers or employees to put up my flyer (Starbucks and Peet's).

So this finally leads me to my actual question! Are there any coffee shops or cafes or similar places that you think are frequented by young people (18 through mid-20s range) in Santa Rosa or surrounding areas? Ones that would be worth giving a call/visiting to ask about putting up my non-profit ad.

Thank you very much!

Edit: the last bit about it being an ad is a joke lol

Why is this intersection so accident prone? I’ve seen no less than 3 pretty bad accidents here in the past couple of weeks, including an accident today involving a motorcycle.

Me thinks SR Ave is still 2 lanes since everyone still treats it as such. What was the point? 🤣 Yes, he was sitting on the right at the light. Yes, I also see people driving down the new shoulder almost daily.

A huge reason why housing is expensive, at every step of the development process Nimby's get in the way. They use CEQA as a weapon to prevent/stop/slow any sort project that doesn't match exactly what they want.

Any one been out there is it worth the trip? Any locals care to share any stories or insight?

So, does anyone know if This dispensary closed for good? Twice Ive gone by at 7:30 (they close at nine) and twice they were closed. This time tho, I saw all their inventory was missing from the shelves too.

Please and thank you

hi! i’ve been really craving some pork buns recently and don’t know of any good places that sell any (besides hang ah) in santa rosa. is there anywhere anyone recommends?

We have used It’s a Dog’s Life for about two years. Until this point I have been content with the service, and if I didn’t have a medically fragile dog I would probably continue using them.

We have a dog that has seizures and is on medication for them. He requires 1.25 pills with breakfast and dinner. On our second to last visit, when we picked up the dog there was a .25 pill left in the bottle. Since this hasn’t been an issue in two years, we didn’t really think of it as a huge issue or something that would happen going forward. Most recently, when he was picked up, there was an entire dose left in the bottle. Around 5 hours later, he had a pretty severe seizure. This is unacceptable.

When asked if he was fed and medicated the checkbox by medicated was unchecked. There is a gap in procedure adherence that could end up killing someone’s pet.

Update: They have implemented a new process to mitigate missed medication. They also offered me two complimentary nights of boarding to make things right.

Happy week Santa Rosa

Can we get a small civil counter protest going at SSU? Or can we at least smarten up and sit in a damn building for an hour instead of on the grass? I don’t want to go to class but people are being too reasonable/civil for school to be bothered let alone even care about the demands you’re making. Looks more like an overnight club meeting than a protest. Humboldt knows what’s up.

I'm starting a fat loss/ muscle preservation challenge and looking for a gym, personal trainer or med spa that does one of these techniques. A friend in Phoenix does Styku, but nearest down in Marin.
Any ideas closer to home? Thanks in advance.

Just found a bunch of termites in a tree in my backyard. I really need to have someone come out and check the grounds.

I have had Turkish coffee before but I want to try the full experience with the cezve and everything. Does that exist around here?

Hi, I'm still relatively new to Santa Rosa but looking to see more beautiful sights. Any hikes, areas, or picnic spots you'd recommend? Open to driving up to 2 hours to see some of California!

Wife and I are Visiting in early May and are considering Yeti for dinner. We're familiar with this regional food. Any opinions? Thanks

It looks like a reprint of an 1885 map

Looking for delicious authentic Mexican food in Santa Rosa! Thank you 😊 in advance

I’m a very fit and active 55 year old disabled (PTSD) female looking for my next fur baby to work/train as my ADA psychiatric service dog.

If your dog needs a new home, I’m your girl. She’ll get the best care, training and home environment possible while she works and plays with me every day. I’ve been working a PSD for nearly 20 years.

Older than nine months but under three years. Female only please….sorry.

I’m only interested in the following breeds.

Labrador retriever, German shepherd, malinois, standard poodle, border collie or Aussie. Bonus points for demonstrated exceptional ability.

Please no other breeds and no rehoming fees.
