r/Ashland

Anyone know anything about it? I saw the sign yesterday and didn’t have time to go check it out. We need a great burger place since Pumphouse in Talent closed. They had the best burgers and fries on this side of the valley

Where does one find the best French Dip in Ashland? Do we have options?

My phone is on low battery and I’m beginning to slightly panic 🙈 It would be everything if 10 or 15 in gas so that I can get to a more populated area to do Uber and on my way back to Portland!

Hi. Any recommendations for a primary care provider and dentist. Thanks

I'm heading out that way this summer and would like to practice the language if any native speakers are interested in meeting up? I'm just starting so it would be very basic.

Relatives (65+yo) are coming to Ashland in August, on their first RV adventure. They need a place to stop for a couple of nights. They likely want quiet, not after-dark partying.

Any recommendations?

I keep an eye on Ashland houses for possible retirement. This place has listed multiple times over the last few years. Now the asking price is half of what they wanted in 2019. I understand COVID era prices are falling, but this place hasn't sold after multiple price cuts in the last 2 years.

Hi! I’m disabled, live upstairs, and can’t drive and have 3-5 trash bags full of clean clothes to donate to anywhere that can use them. Mostly women’s size small-medium and some men’s size small-medium. I’m sure a few pieces could be consigned or resold. Would anyone be willing to come pick them for free? I can leave them in the outside stairwell so nobody would have to come inside or even make contact at all if preferred! (: I’m almost literally drowning in unused clothing and would prefer they go directly where they could’ve used as opposed to goodwill (and where the person who got them to begin with purchased them) but frankly if they’re out of my hair I don’t mind either way.

Honestly, I applied to go to SOU but after doing research and talking with staff and students I have known for a while. I am not so sure. They seem to act very caring and supportive. However, they messed up their own finances letting departments overspend consistently and still are even with a 1k budget put in place. They’re using loopholes to still get around the budget. Instead of strengthening these budgets or creating a plan for everyone to survive- on top of all this, they’re trying to get the union to sign a 0% increase in pay for FOUR YEARS. That’s insane, especially with cost of living rising, food costs, gas… The morals are insanely skewed. Why are the making the people at the bottom, who ultimately keep the school running, barely scraping by? Student workers are also affected by this and aren’t getting pay increases- how are they supposed to eat food, pay rent, and pay tuition bills? Along with that there’s several workers who aren’t held accountable for never showing up to work and lying about why. It’s an odd system they have in place. It’s a failing system. I think I’m going to go to another college instead. It sounds like a lot of others I know are as well. I don’t think they’re going to come out of this because, they aren’t actually listening to anyone. Maybe that’s just me? What do you all think?

Completely forgot to add; I’m a Business major with an Art minor.

I’m a long-time local who writes risk assessments and sector reports for Green Econometrics, a Pennsylvania consulting firm. So I wrote one for Southern Oregon to share here. Nothing we don’t all know and most are aware of the individual issues cited…but I thought I’d aggregate the information, organize it, and highlight the potential ramifications. So this is not an attempt to break new ground, it’s just intended to bring issues we’re facing into a single doc to stimulate discussion. Note: my firm integrates Claude 4.7 into our process to support our directed research, to create charts and graphs, and to format output. Content design, development and editorial direction by humans with full audits for accuracy.

We’ll be back at Grape Street Bar this Friday night at 7 to play Cards Against Humanity and other games. This may be the last one for a while. Join us and have some fun!

I’ve been slammed at work. Finally got some free time this week, any suggestions on what’s going on?

Fun article to read - "If someone told you there was a town in Oregon where the downtown looks like it was designed by someone with impeccable taste and unlimited funding, you might think they were exaggerating.

But then you’d arrive in Ashland, Oregon, and realize they were actually underselling it."

Hey all,

22 tF, looking to meet other people in person for D&D or other TTRPGs! Mostly looking for people around my age (early to mid 20s), but I don't have a problem going a little older

The games I know are:

• D&D 5e
• VAMPIRE 2e
• Monster of the Week
• Call of Cthulhu 7e

And I'd love to learn others! PLEASE teach me others

I currently live in Grants Pass, and I'd be willing to go as far as far as Ashland or Roseburg for sessions. Not looking for online groups, and I'm DMing for another group, so I won't be able to play DM

Looking forward to hearing from you all! Feel free to DM me :)

Looking for recommendations for a tattoo artist who does solid script work. If you’ve got photos of their lettering pieces, I’d really appreciate seeing them.

Any good/accurate weather app recommendations? Currently raining and am still being told there is maybe a 15% chance of rain??? Thank you
