Property Issues

We moved here in September and the house we're renting turned out to not have a working furnace, which the owner won't replace. The solution we were given was space heaters and extra layers. Now we've found out that one of the windows doesn't lock and can be very easily opened from the outside and short of nailing it shut or boarding over, there's nothing that can be done because they won't replace the windows. Is this pretty normal for Springfield?

Inaugural meeting of the Psychedelic Society of the Ozarks.

Just throwing it out there to see if there is any interest from the reddit crowd. This Thursday, December 5th from 7-9pm we're holding the first gathering for the Psychedelic Society of the Ozarks.

www.psychedelicsoto.org

We're going to discuss the shape and direction of the organization. It's to be a safe space to share and explore all things psychedelic, a place for everyone, from the experienced paychonaut to the curious newbie. We're also going to be involved with the ongoing efforts to influence legislation in a favorable direction to help combat the mental health crisis facing our society.

We're meeting inside SoL Farms. 4139 S National. 7-9pm. Every first Thursday of the month, subject to change of course.

This is not a place for consumption, so please don't bring any illegal substances. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

To the POS who dumped a sweet looking dog out near Farm Road 186 & Campbell out by Anchor Fence, there's a special place in Hell for you.

Looking to buy a draw knife, or knives. Does any place sell them? Even FB market place is a bust.

I could order one off amazon, but I prefer buying tools like that in person if I can, so I can pick them up and get a feel for them in in hand before pulling out the wallet.

I even tried FB marketplace for an old used one, I don't mind a bit of tool restoration, and it was a bust.

Anyone know of anywhere round these parts that sells draw knives in store?

At home Euthanasia

My childhood dog is probably going to have to be euthanized soon. Does anyone have any experience with having an at home euthanasia in the area for less than $350? We have plans for his remains so we don’t need any of those services. Just trying to make it peaceful for him instead of taking him to the vet where he hates to be

Lawncare Costs?

Good morning fellow Springfielders! I was podcasting on my way home from the Dr. Office today and got thinking about local prices for residential and commercial Lawn care. Is anyone on here in the business and also local? I'm curious what the going price is by acre/lot in both a commercial and residential environment. I dont particularly want/need to know what your business is called or who you work for, this is really just a curiosity for me.

That said, Im also on an HOA board in Willard and we are currently shopping for a new lawn care contract for a roughly 1/2 acre retaining basin. Who knows, this may kill two birds with one stone!

I'm moving back, what has changed?

I've spent the past 7 1/2 years in San Diego while in Navy. I've flown back a few times on leave but never really spent to much time in town. What are some of the bigger changes in town? I already know about Buc-ee's and Whataburger!

Emergency (semi) Spay for cat

I recently took in a stray. She’s the cutest little thing, but over the last couple of weeks she’s been growing. Good, because I feed her. But…today she’s been extra crazy affectionate and I noticed developing breasts where there definitely were none before. Basically, I am sure she’s knocked up. Does anyone know where I can take her to get it taken care of with a spay? Relatively inexpensive would be great, but I’ll do what I have to do to keep these things from becoming kittens.

Reseal basement and flooring

Any suggestions for who to contact to make sure that our basement is fully sealed in some areas that have leaked occasionally and maybe talk about putting in an epoxy floor or other options? Same people, different, etc…?

I don’t see why Kansas and Chestnut are called “expressways” when you literally get stuck at every light. Whoever’s in charge of the timers here your ass is grass pal.

What's Doling Park neighborhood like?

I'm not finding any recent posts mentioning the Doling Park neighborhood. What's it like?
Traffic? Noise? Grocery stores? Crime? Internet speeds? Sewer & water?
Is Doling Park itself dangerous (as many urban parks are)?
Any insights would be very much appreciated.

Where's the best place to sell an e bike?

I have a LECTRIC XP 3.0 that I bought a few months ago and just don't use it enough to justify having it, I use my electric scooter more, but it's practically brand new, comes with an extra battery and some other parts I got from the company like the control and brain. Just wanted to ask because it is close to new and I'm not trying to get ripped off but would a bike shop buy it, or would marketplace be better?

Men with longer hair, where do you get your haircut?

Looking for hairshop/barber reccomendations for myself (21M). I have just past my shoulder length hair which I've largely just let grow with a few trims here and there.

My only real requirements or preference is that I don't want it to feel like a sports bar. If you remember how much you paid for your last cut, include that too.

Thanks all!

Map of Springfield?

Does anyone have a map of Springfield with the true names of geographical areas/neighborhoods and/or a map that is what areas are locally or commonly referred to?

Might be a weird request, but I’m just interested in the city.
