Hey all, I am a California Transplant (yea, I know, I know) and I am looking for individuals or groups that are in Idaho that are Leftist, Antifa, Anarchists, and the like. I am already part of the Satanist groups that are available , but I am interested in connecting with people in my area.
A plus if is has a sauna
I am looking for some folks who play catan in twin falls? I visit twin falls a lot, wishing to find folks to hangout with.
Hello! I work for a local market research firm here in Boise and we are looking for Idaho and Oregon residents to participate in some small group interviews about local healthcare brands that we have next week. If you know anyone from any of the following counties who’d be interested in participating, please share this post with them. They’d receive a $150 virtual gift card for their time. Thanks!

I'm just wondering as I'm going to discuss getting tested with my Doctor tomorrow. I was able to get tested for POTS so I assumed I'd be able to get tested for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome but I'm not so sure after looking it up on Google.
TIA!
I’m looking for musicians. Specifically bass players and drummers. Although I’m open to jam with anybody regardless of what you contribute.
Currently working on a set list that includes rock and reggae themes. Please let me know if you’re interested!
Lived in both. And let me tell you. That one car on the road on Blue Lakes WILL attempt to make your life miserable ten times over the 500 Boise drivers you may encounter in a single commute.
Why is it so difficult to go the speed limit here (I don't care if you are over)? Why am I heading down Locust at 15mph? Why is that car driving in the turning lane? Why is this other guy in the oncoming lane heading straight for me? Why do I end up behind the only two cars on a dual lane road, only for them to sit side by side for 8 miles unprovoked? Why is it when I'm heading towards the bridge on 93, every time without fail, someone will pull into the left lane and go 5 under the limit? Why are you tailgating me when I'm in the left lane sitting behind a line of 20 cars myself? Why do you think that coal rolling does anything at all to me? What is the purpose behind passing someone in the right lane only to go 10mph slower than them in the left? Why can't people get the hint to move over when they're the only car in the left lane with a giant ass truck 2 inches from their bumper? Why did you turn in front of me on a 60mph road when I'm 500 feet from you?
Is driving skill a good indicator of average IQ for an area? Twin Falls residents make a GREAT case for that argument.
Is there a local platform to give away stuff, like Freecycle used to be?
Is Facebook Free4All the only place?
Hey! We're here for the night visiting family. We're wondering the best place to grab some food for dinner that's not too expensive? And serves alcohol Thanks ☺️
Wanted to quickly remind everyone who commutes on Highway 93 that being courteous makes traffic flow much smoother.
No, you shouldn't remain in the left lane unless you are actively passing cars in the right lane. You end blocking those going faster than you. And yes, they are allowed to go faster than you. I promise they're not doing it to get one over on you, so no reason to take it personally.
No, you should never speed up to prevent someone from passing you, especially when they pass in the oncoming traffic lane. There is a reason they are passing you, and your ego doesn't take precedent over their life. The amount of times this has happened to me after catching up to someone going 5 under the limit while I'm on cruise control is infuriating. Do better.
If you choose to pull out in front of me and desire to remain in front of me, don't fluctuate between 55 and 75mph and expect me not to pass. You don't get to choose how fast the 7 cars behind you are travelling if you cannot pick a speed.
To reinforce that last point, a lot of you in general can't seem to pick a speed. Coincedentally, in my experience, people who do that generally speed up to prevent you from passing.
If you are being tailgated seemingly unprovoked, let the other person get in front of you. It doesn't matter what you think about the fact that they tailgated you. Either they are an asshole, or you're one because you're blocking the left lane. And either way they'll be off your radar once they pass. Unless they're someone like I outline in this next point.
DO NOT speed up to pass if you plan on going below slower than me once in front. I can't tell you how many times I've had to re-pass someone because they can't stand not feeling in control of MY speed. This is especially annoying because the re-pass leads to their unnecessary road rage.
KEY POINTS: • The left lane is for passing, not cruising.
• People who decide to drive faster than you and subsequently pass your car are not insulting you and it's childish that you take it that way
• If you can't choose a speed, fine. Nobody needs to know why you choose to be a nuisance. But recognize yourself as such and MOVE.
SPECIAL MESSAGES: • Truck drivers. Coal rolling does nothing. Zero. At least it blocks the view of whatever ugly flag you're flying, but it just baffles me that you all think it has any effect.
• To the dude who I generously let remain in front of me for 20 minutes before your speed fluctuations caused me to pass. That was beyond hilarious when, after you decided to speed and catch up to me 5 MINUTES AFTER I PASSED YOU to tailgate, the cop in the oncoming lane saw you on my ass and flashed his lights at you. I wish he would have pulled you over. Laughed the entire way from that point forward as you only attempted to tailgate when no other cars were coming towards us 💀💀. I would have let you pass
Anyone think Chobani will ever go IPO? Employees that were promised shares are getting restless. Some even started lawsuits because they feel they were misled by opting to stay with the company to get all of their shares.
Anyone else just have their house shake?
The next big social movement is an economic one. America has a rich history of progress and activism. We championed civil rights, democracy, women’s suffrage, and much more.
What you’re feeling today is real. Your economic insecurity is real.
For the last 40 years, our government and politicians have been captured by corporations and nonprofits that are funded by corporate interests.
These powerful and wealthy entities have influenced domestic and foreign policy in ways that intentionally keep your wages and benefits low, eroded your labor rights, cut taxes for the rich, harm working class Americans, and deeply distort democracy.
This isn’t the fault of a single administration but the result of a well oiled corporate and neoliberal propaganda machine, spending tens of billions of dollars to manipulate us all, in pursuit of profit.
Don’t check out of politics just because an election is over. The time for action is now. Don’t let things get worse for young adults like me and for your children. I am begging you.
Don’t be distracted by culture war politics, they’re just trying to distract you from questioning your economic reality. Every American deserves the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Reach out to your neighbors on the other side and find common ground, because we can’t fight when we’re divided.
I wanna take my girlfriend out somewhere nice. Whats the best tasting food with a gold atmosphere?
Looks like the view of the Snake River has to be a great view
Was driving north on Grandview at ~6:31AM and the Sky lit up bright Green. A green and orange object on fire left a smoke trail heading east towards the canyon devil's corral area. Apon impact the lighted smoke trail went out in a flash in the dark.
I lived in Twin Falls once upon a time, and just moved back a couple of weeks ago from Queens. I know a few people from before and am getting involved with some of the local veterans groups, but could always meet a few more folks.
I wanted to hit the CSI Fitness Trail sometime this weekend, probably Saturday at 10am, but I can be flexible if anyone would like to join.
A bit about me: single 39 year old female, Navy veteran and I work an east coast job remotely. And I'm a pretty decent cookie baker complete with a celebrity endorsement or two, so yes, I will bring cookies if you join me this weekend.
Let’s have a respectful and mature discussion!
This is the most pro working class agenda in US history. This targets systemic trends working class people have been enduring.
Any interesting abandoned buildings, weird places to explore? Anywhere in the magic valley.
Looking to get my septum pierced. Any piercer recommendations in the Twin Falls area?
