Haven't been to the Southside in a min but I guess the crime is this bad?!
galleryI had to stop and do a double take to make sure I really saw what I thought I saw.
Call me crazy but something tells me the people commiting violent crime might not find these persuasive.

Why aren’t they playing The Odyssey at the science center?
idk the specific aspect ratios of imax 70mm vs the science center screen, but when oppenheimer came out i thought it’d be a perfect movie for them to play, since it’s also science related, and they never did. now the odyssey is out and they aren’t playing that either. maybe it’s a licensing thing too, but they would be making so much money showing these movies since there’s no proper imax 70mm theater in pgh. i imagine it’d be worth it to figure out the licensing. seems like a major missed opportunity im wondering whats stopping them.

Already Paradise Restaurant Pittsburgh Mills
I took a trip up to the Mills yesterday to eat at TJ buffet and walk around. I heard from the FB group Pittsburgh Mills Mess that there was new restaurant signage up in the abandoned food court and decided to check it out.
A homemade sign sporting “Already Paradise” along with additional signs featuring a website and QR code were posted.
A new restaurant in this mall does seem like an interesting choice , but when I went to the
[website](www.alreadyparadise.com) it got even stranger. Is this for real? I thought this community would provide some interesting feedback.

Ninety Neighborhoods by Transit – Middle Hill [26/90]
galleryGrandma B's
🗓️ 16-Feb-2026
🚌 PRT 83 Bedford Hill
I'm reposting this one because the photos in the original post were low-res for some reason.
Grandma B's may not look like much, but this may have been the best breakfast I've had since moving here last spring. The staff are fantastic and playfully chirp at everyone who walks through the door. Be sure to get the potatoes; they pack a ton of flavor into those things. Oh, and don't forget to bring cash!
As for The Hill itself, there's plenty I could say about the history, the disinvestment, the redlining, the more recent changes... and I may touch on those subjects in another post. But, for this one, please enjoy a line of colorful row houses instead.
I'm on a mission to visit every neighborhood in Pittsburgh by transit. Click here for details and links to every visit.

Uh anybody else?
Saw this scrolling through Facebook reels, anybody else a little upset by this? It’s literally one of the few cool vintage items left around Pittsburgh.

Do people actually use 311 reporting service
I have a dilemma. We just moved to the area so idk the vibe around using the 311 reporting service. We rent and I want to say that our neighbor probably does to. They have crazy amounts of trash in between the two houses and all in the back yard. It gets into our yard and brings raccoons who also carry it into our yard. Our neighbor on the other side told us he’s talked to her multiple times about her trash bc he too has had issues with raccoons and has small kids.
The neighbor with the trash is never home so I haven’t had a chance to address it with them but it doesn’t seem like it will change… I don’t want to be an ass but I also don’t know what to do. Do I try to address it with them first? (Like I said though they are hardly around)

Flynn’s Tires Slogan
Hey Yinzers, this is potentially a pretty stupid question, but rather here than in a shop and make myself look nuts. Every Flynn’s tires ad on the radio or TV ends with the little leprechaun saying “And tell em Flynnie sent ya!” Obviously it’s a nod to classic Irish hospitality and is in theme with their brand, but it seems too direct of a command not to actually mean anything. So my question to you all and Flynn Tire people is: is there some sort of discount if you go to the front desk and say “Flynnie sent me.” I know it sounds ridiculous, but I don’t know why else they’d be so intentional about directing you to do something. Maybe I’m thinking about it too much… anyone know the answer?

Former PA House Rep. Jesse White facing federal child pornography charges
youtu.beWashington-native Jesse White represented the 46th district (Washington/Beaver/Allegheny) as a Democrat from 2007 to 2015.
In 2013, White admitted to using multiple fictitious names and online aliases to target, bully, and verbally attack his own constituents.
In 2017, the Pennsylvania Supreme Court disbarred White after he admitted to misappropriating more than $100k from his legal clients, which his attorney attributed to a severe gambling addiction.
In 2019, White and his family relocated to Cumberland County, where he runs a political consulting firm called Perpetual Fortitude.

Has anyone successfully filed a claim for a broken sewer line?
Old-house-living Pittsburgher here. Along with the old house comes an old sewer line. I get perpetual mailers offering insurance on this old sewer line. OnCourse, HomeServ, etc.
My homeowners insurance will not cover them. There is no endorsement I can add. They simply won't cover them. So, I'm looking at these alternatives.
I'm wondering if they're legit? Say my sewer line breaks. I call a plumber, he scopes it, sees it's broken, I call them, and it gets fixed. That's what I'm looking for.
Has anyone actually ever done that? Are these legit or will they fight tooth and nail and be unreachable, etc. to NOT pay a claim?

Seeking cancer survivors for story
Good morning all,
Writer with the Pittsburgh Tribune Review here, posting in search of someone and/or a parent of someone who has grappled or is currently grappling with a neuroblastoma diagnosis that would be willing to share their experiences for a feature story.
The story is primarily focused on a potentially outlook advancing treatment for solid tumor cancers being worked on locally that, while in the very earliest stages of the development process, has thus far shown potential in animal trials.
You would be complementing the scientific information by passing on a story the reader can connect to, speaking to what you went through or are going through and what a potentially meaningful advancement would mean or might have meant to you and your family.
If this is something you'd be on board with, please feel free to reach out. Thank you for your time and consideration either way. I appreciate it.

Engineering networking
I am a mechanical engineer, graduated in early 2025, moved to Pittsburgh and have been working since as a technician. I’ve been looking for an entry level position as a mechanical engineer for the last 6 months without success in getting hired.
Are there any engineering professionals here that would like to network with me or potentially mentor?
Thanks!
