If someone told you this was Oregon or Washington, you’d probably believe them. But it’s right here on beautiful Mount Lemmon, Arizona near Tucson after a couple weeks of rain. ☔️

Save Robles Junction

There are serious proposals to destroy a huge amount of open desert habitat in Robles Junction (Three Points). This land is owned by the state in a trust which sells and leases to the highest bidders to ostensibly go towards the education budget. The county is ultimately in control of zoning. Pima County and the state only care about tax revenue and have no reason to not sell every square inch they can to the highest bidder.

If you oppose Interstate 11 or data centers, this is just as bad in effect. I'm sure cholla scrub isn't as sexy as saguaros on rocky outcrops, but the results are the same. Move pavement and huge areas become undesirable. They sell or get low balled eminent domain offers, and the track homes and strip malls are next. The interstate becomes needed, not just a "truck bypass."

I know more than a few people think "screw these hicks" or whatever. Grow up. Stop missing the forest for the trees, because there won't be any left anyway.

This is not anti-solar or nimbyism. Destroying virgin habitat is cheap, while actual work on infill, parking lots, already disturbed land is not. Farmland is a net negative here, but it would cost money to actually buy those out. The lease holders are not making money nor is the state unless they develop it, and this is the easiest way to do it that is "good."

Homeless in Tucson, figured I’d ask here.

66 Upvotes

My fiance and I are homeless, even though he has a job and I just started. It seems like shelters are booked and the intake time wasn’t possible since we have things and we are nowhere near it. Donated plasma but it can only stretch so far. It’s been trial and error calling churches as well since the funding isn’t there, so we’ve had to resort to using any money we had left to fund our stay. We are in a hotel but our checkout is today, with no luck of funds available. We both truly just need shelter, a place to stay, out of the heat to go to work and back. Any chance we could get some help, it would be great. Even just another night so we have more time to reach out to distant family or more resources today.

Job market in tucson

I'm trying to find a job in Tucson, but honestly, I'm not finding many opportunities. It seems like the only things this city has to offer are being a computer technician or working in call centers like AFNI and GEICO. What other places should I look to find something decent?

Post-election day questions from a poll worker.

There was a new option for drop off ballots yesterday and plenty of discussion about it. Voters had the option to drop their ballot and go, or have their id and ballot “verified” by a poll worker. This was NOT signature verification.

The process was intended to speed up counting after polls close. We will have some data on efficacy soon. Sooo…question time!

Did you know this was an option prior to Election Day?

Did you verify your id, or drop and go?

Would you “verify” your ballot if it took longer or you had to wait in line to do so?

Was the process clearly explained?

What improvements could be made?

Do you even agree that end of day counting is a problem?

PSA ‼️Goatheads

PSA ‼️ Goatheads 🔪
NOW IS THE TIME TO ACT

After all the rain, these invasive plants are starting to grow. They’re super harmful to humans, pet paws, and bike tires. If you want to reduce the number Goatheads you have to deal with. Now is the perfect time to dig them up as their roots are still pretty shallow and the seeds or “goatheads” are still relatively small and not as pokey. They are sprawling and their stems creep along the ground. They’re also easily identifiable by their tiny yellow flowers which are also starting to form. 🌼 If you wait too long you will regret it. Upon removal you can greatly reduce their numbers and have less and less every year you remove them. Good luck!

Edit: please don’t use herbicides indiscriminately there are many beneficial and native plants that benefits local wildlife.

Hey guys! I’m looking for a place where I can propose to my girlfriend. Ideally, it would have a portable chandelier (I’ll post a photo of the one I’m looking for), or allow me to rent one. An outdoor location would be great too. Any recommendations?

Affordable walk in pet clinic?

2 Upvotes

My cat is suddenly stumbling and losing her balance. It seems to be getting worse, and i no longer feel comfortable waiting for her appointment tomorrow. I was recommended petwellclinic and tucson vet urgent care on speedway. Ive been to the speedway one once and they charged me 1000 dollars to rehydrate my cat and wanted me to pay $3000 just for a diagnosis. Who knows what treatment wouldve cost. I just dont wanna go back there. I looked up petwell and i found it suspicious how their lowest review was still 5 stars. Cant businesses delete reviews? I might be tripping. But theres also not really any info on pricing or if theyll even be able to help based off her symptoms.

Mechanic Shops

Looking for a good shop that specializes in performance cars. Just need a place to take my car for oil changes, brake fluid/pads, basic maintenance really but I’d like to know if there’s any shops that are popular with track day enthusiasts. Guys who are passionate about cars and the motorsports industry. Just moved here from out of state where I was hitting the track and the mountains frequently. Thanks
