Just got a bill for $250 for the month of July... I used less electricity than last year and am supposed to pay literally double what last year's bill was.

Vote the Republicans out ... They can't run a state.

Between the scorching heatwaves, humidity and the shitty air quality, this is the first time I’ve been able to open all the windows in a few weeks. It feels amazing and I’m so grateful for the reprieve! Have a great day, everyone!

EDIT 2: She has been picked up! Cheers!

I won this cooler back when Dr. Pepper first released the strawberries & cream flavor. It’s very spacious, seems durable, and doubles as a table! I had planned to try and make some money on it, as I figured some kind of collector would pay for it, but I am days away from the bar exam and weeks away from moving out of one short term rental and across the country into another, and I just don’t have the time and energy to sell it. But it just occurred to me tonight that perhaps someone in this sub who appreciates Dr. Pepper, and maybe even would enjoy drinking it in a certain German Village park with others, might be able to put this to good use. If that’s you, it’s yours, and you just have to promise you’ll drink one in my honor.

ETA: Wow, I knew I was in good company as a Dr. Pepper fan, but I was not expecting this much response this quickly! If you want it, please PM me so I can give you a location and keep track of who messaged in what order!

I only have one cooler to give away, or I’d give one to everyone! But y’all should follow G&J Pepsi on Instagram. I originally won the cooler through one of their giveaways and picked it up, along with tons and tons of free soda, at their facility in Milo-Grogan! I hope more of y’all can win things as well!

Thought it was a murder hornet, it is not. But WTF is it?

Camille hasn’t had one adoption application 😢this one eyed baby deserves a chance at a second life after living on the streets! Please share if you can 💕

I went to school at CSCC in 2008-2009, and am now returning back to school, as I'm wanting to learn more in the field I'm in. I know this is a community college, but I feel like they have dumbed it down a lot and made everything much easier through online and open book tests. I even saw people next to me cheating through ai and it just makes me wonder if I'm pissing away money. When I went to school in 2008-2009, I actually had to put some effort into the courses and there was a lot more collaboration and exchanging of ideas among students. Don't get me wrong, I have learned some things that will be useful in the future but it doesn't feel like the money being put forth is really yielding anything. Are there any older returning students who feel this way?

Used to be the best Taco Bell in town and it wasn’t even close.

New ownership “southpaw” has apparently decided to change all of that. Shortened hours, and just zero employees working there today over 2 hours after opening.

Shame upon Southpaw and their families.

This is how our dumpster has looked the past few days... This time they’re blaming the city for the late pickup schedule. They could simply add another dumpster when they have over 30 buildings. Now they expect residents to keep trash inside their homes.

Very Sad. One person is dead. multiple injuries to a few others. The location was around King and 7th.

I thought I recognized one of the cars and quickly contacted my friend near the area thinking he was involved. I apologize For the mistake.

Whoever passed some of these Columbus drivers on the parking portion of the test deserves to be investigated ASAP

Anyone know of a local store in Cbus that has bulk amounts (3-5lbs) of the clear/pineapple flavor of gummy bears? Haven’t been able to locate a place and was hoping to buy it local over an online order, but will if the collective also doesn’t know of a place 😅

EDIT: ya’ll are too fucking funny. Appreciate everyone helping to find a local source before I resorted to online! I’ll check a few more of those stores out. And for those who are dying to know context - alright, alright, alright…it’s for colonoscopy prep 🥲 (no crimes involved, unless you count the one that will happen to me on scope day)

editing to add: I have no idea how to add a pic to this LOL but these are the fees I mean, NOT regular fees like utilities. There is no way you’re going to look at this link and tell me it isn’t insane. I’ve seen almost this EXACT page on so many apartment websites. A required monthly lease lock fee? Monthly master policy fee? Monthly admin fee? Required WiFi and cable? No thanks, I haven’t watched cable in 15 years and have my own WiFi service for cheaper. As if paying $2000+ for their shitty small apartment isn’t enough already, they want to nickel and dime people. Fee Guide

(Vent post) I have to move in a few months… when I moved a couple of years ago, rent prices sucked but I do not remember every single apartment community having a whole fucking guide on all the extra fees they charge you on top of rent. Why does it seem like EVERY single god damn apartment complex charges all these extra required fees now?! wtf! I hate it here

It is a part of a larger apartment system. Someone is advertising no money for application, these move in fees are eliminated, low security deposit. It is a scam probably trying to get your money. Please spread!!!

I'm a fan of Charmy's downtown but want to support local stores that invest in people and community over corporate greed.

Back to their usual spot I guess...they really do need to do these at night!

Hi everyone!

I recently moved to the Columbus area from Denver and have been a lifelong Atlanta Braves fan. I’m hoping to find my baseball people.

I’d love to meet up to grab a beer, watch games, and talk baseball. While the Braves are my team, I’m a huge fan of the sport in general, so I’m always up for talking MLB, debating players, trades, prospects, or just enjoying a game.

If you’re a Braves fan—or just a serious baseball fan looking for someone to watch games with—I’d love to connect. Are there any Braves watch groups or baseball meetups around Columbus?

Go Braves! ⚾️

What is going on?! So many emergency vehicles!! I just drove past to get to the Uncommon apts.

Considering getting a bike soon to ride on trails. Any tips or advice for biking in Columbus?

Favorite trails near downtown?
