Tried to find these after the post talking about the area in case anybody was curious

Edit: Don’t downvote me, I hate these designs as much as the next guy. All I did was find these online so people could comment on them.

I just came to get gas at my usual 7-Eleven, to find it's been turned into a shell. I was literally here last week. Anyone know why the one on 10th and Western is now a shell? I'm upset cuz now my only options are both ghetto as hell (23rd & Penn, 23rd & Kelly). I'm irrationally upset about this. Low key. I realize there is an Oncue down the street, but I can't save money on gas through them. 😔

Hi guys! Just looking for epileptic Friendly Bars in the OKC metro area. We are planning a girls night out, but one of our friends can't be around flashing lights and things of that sort. Whether it's more of a laid back bar or party place we are open to all suggestions. Thank you!!

I am relocating for work, and my job is near NW 122nd St and N Pennsylvania Ave. I am looking for a 1 or 2 bdrm apt. I am looking for a nice place for at least a year as I get acclimated with the area. I'm a young 46, and active. Want to be near food and stores, I'm from DFW so I am used to driving. Mainly looking for something not too dated a d with decent amenities. Any suggestions.

Edit: looking to stay under $1300 monthly if possible

I'm looking for the sausage rolls that were around before the kolache craze took over. Kolaches are good but I'm getting tired of sweet all the time.

I was charged with armed robbery over 5 years ago and I’m looking for felon friendly apartments in the city preferably downtown. I’ve heard it’s hard to get an apartment as a felon but I haven’t tried yet.

Hi everyone! I’m a Doctor and will be rotating at INTEGRIS Health Baptist Medical Center OK from August 1st to 15th. I’m looking for a suitable female only/female safe accommodation at a walking distance from the hospital.
Thanks!

Hey guys!! My friend and I are going to a concerat at that venue and are looking for a hotel in a safe area as going to OKC is new to us. What area should we look in? We found this hotel for reasonable pirce and looks nice but not sure how safe the neighborhood is:

Looking for NICE hotels with a pool. Prefer something open late or no children if possible. Also intrested in rooms with hot tubs in the room, NOT just large bathtubs. LOL

Looking for recommendations for my one year old starting in September. I prefer OKC over Edmond - as we’re based in midtown, OKC. Any recommendations?

I’ve been out of the loop on some of the city-level scuttlebutt for some time, but it turns out that the Zoo Ampitheater is now run by a company in California called Gate 52 as of 2024. (Which explains ALOT of things!!!)

What other local attractions have been taken over by outsiders in the last decade or so? 🤔

Moving to OKC soon, working near Tinker and looking at Edmond and Choctaw areas. (I like Moore but my wife refuses because of the tornadoes!) Commute to/from Edmond on the 35/235 turns me off; how bad are they at 6:30/4:30? Choctaw's got less going on but the commute would be much better. Anywhere else nice that's not farther away?

I went to the Black Keys show at the Zoo Amphitheatre last night and was surprised by the beer prices. It was my first show at the venue since the new ownership took over in 2024.

A 16 oz Coors Light was:

• $11.00 before tax
• $13.43 after sales tax and alcohol tax

Just 3 beers would come out to just over $40 which is about what I paid for my lawn ticket directly from the venue.

For comparison, I paid $14 for a 24 oz tall boy at Red Rocks just last year. I expect premium prices at a destination venue like Red Rocks, but I didn't expect the Zoo Amp to be in the same ballpark.

Curious what everyone else thinks:

• Is this just the new normal for concert venues in Oklahoma?
• Has anyone else been caught off guard by the concession prices at the Zoo Amp?
• Are there any other venues around OKC charging similar prices?

I attached my receipt because I figured people would think I was exaggerating otherwise. 😂

I am new in this whole scene. But I think I am ready to start getting botox.

So, my first question is who do you recommend? I will need a solid consultation and I want sometime VERY detail oriented. I’m picky af and I have some asymmetry so I might be a difficult case. I want to stop wrinkle production but not feel totally frozen.

My second question is, has anyone done the monthly memberships where you get unlimited Botox and I wonder if that’s worth it or if you have been to any that you like.

Thank you for your time!

I have a question for anybody that might have attended the Gothic market event in years past. That question being how would you guys rate the event? And if you were a vendor at the event, do you think it was worth your time? And if you were an attendee were the vendors worth your time to go.?

Hello! I'm a full-time student, and I was wondering if anyone knows of places in OKC that are open late and have good accessibility for studying. It's becoming hard to study at home without distractions, but I'm also a night owl, so I like to stay up and get work done.

Any suggestions are welcome!

Thank you!

Looking for places to explore that are abandoned and/or condemned...Can be trains, places in the woods, bases, etc.

I am BORED, give me a cool spot to check out and explore. :)

Update for folks who've been following this since the spring threads.

In early July I filed eleven follow-up records requests about the Flock camera system. In plain language, they asked: who is allowed to search it, which outside agencies get OKC's data, who signs off on sharing, what training officers actually get, and whether the department has any measurement showing the cameras work.

On July 13, four days after filing, five of the eight requests to OKCPD were marked "Completed" in the portal, however we received no documents, no correspondences, no written explanation, no email - nothing. The portal is read-only for requesters, so there is nothing to reply to and nobody to ask. It just closes.

Three others came back as formal denials through the Municipal Counselor's office. I asked for records connecting Flock to actual case outcomes, stolen vehicles recovered, arrests...anything. The written answer, citing the Open Records Act, is that those records are not kept.

Four days after that answer, the FOP president went on KOCO 5 and said Flock "has been instrumental in catching very violent and bad folks." Instrumental. Four days after the department told me in writing that it keeps no records connecting Flock to a single case outcome. Both cannot be true. We pay $270,000 a year for this system, and the people touting it get to say "instrumental" on the evening news while the department's own paperwork says nobody is measuring anything. If it works, show the receipts. They can't. Their own written answer says the receipts don't exist.

On the vote: July 21 came and went with no renewal vote. That's the fourth date that has slipped. I'll be honest, I haven't made the last few meetings myself. Between work, and finding out morning-of that the vote wasn't even on the agenda, it kept sliding down my priority list. The datacenter fight is eating council's agenda time and there are a ton of cards in the air at City Hall right now. I'm done predicting dates. Council meets every other Tuesday at 8:30 AM. If you can be in that room, be in that room. The vote lands eventually, and it matters who's in the chamber when it does.

The scrutiny isn't just City Hall anymore either. At the Capitol, Sen. Mary Boren (D-Norman) is pushing an interim study on who holds Flock data, how long they keep it, and who gets access. Rep. Tom Gann (R) held one on ALPRs last fall. The last bill that tried to expand ALPR use in Oklahoma died in the Senate with 68 percent voting no. Privacy isn't a partisan issue here. News9 covered the whole thing this week: https://www.news9.com/oklahoma-politics/okc-flock-camera

One more thing, and this one is our own backyard. On July 21, Sheriff Adam Woodruff of Latimer County announced his office reviewed Flock and refused it, citing the exact concerns we've been putting up a stink about for months: privacy, data sharing, transparency, and the potential for misuse. An Oklahoma sheriff looked at this platform and decided his county can keep people safe through proactive policing and sound investigative work without it. If Latimer County can police without Flock, so can Oklahoma City.

The ask hasn't changed: don't renew the contract, remove the cameras, and don't replace them with another ALPR vendor's version of the same system.

Every request number, closure, and response letter is documented at deflockokc.com/records.html.

TL;DR: OKCPD closed five of eight records requests in four days with nothing attached. They say in writing that no records link Flock to case outcomes; the FOP says it's been "instrumental." Both can't be true. The vote keeps slipping, an Oklahoma sheriff just said no to Flock, and the room at City Hall still needs bodies in it.

Hey there! I’m curious to know if there’s anyone out there who enjoys the same things as me & is looking for a new friend as well! Crime junkie, smut reader, working out; would also love to find someone who can help me explore things I’ve never tried before, such as hobbies, bars, etc. Oh, I love kayaking, but rarely go, and I enjoy hiking, but definitely not in this heat. I also like just hanging out and talking. I do have friends, but none of them get the full-uncensored version of me, so I’m looking for someone I can truly be myself with.

I'm craving Mac and cheese from the TLB so. Freaking. Badly. And I'm so sad that I'll never taste it again.

Does anyone know where I can get a good vegan/dairy-free Mac and cheese that's on par with TLB? Does it even exist? Will I ever be happy again?

West side of Lake Hefner

I did some photography work at the capitol and was invited to go to the very top. Probably about 20 feet or 30 feet from the statue at the top. It was a heck of a climb but it was totally worth it.

My mom has discovered bed bugs at her place. What extermination company in OKC is good at eliminating these quickly?
