Well shit... i just got jumped...i tried to go out back and put out this fire that some kids started and were just fanning and im like are yall just gonna stand there and let the parking lot catch fire. And as i pour water on the flames next i know im being thrown on the ground and beat on just cuz im trans. What is wrong with people what did i do wrong. Do i not deserve to breathe & have a life just like everyone else.

I wish I had paid more attention to the negative reviews before signing my lease.

I moved in recently and have already had one of the worst renting experiences I've ever had. I've dealt with major maintenance issues, including my A/C not working during extremely hot weather, leaving my apartment around 90°F. Getting updates or even reaching the office has been incredibly difficult, and I've repeatedly been told repairs were coming only for nothing to happen.

The lack of communication has been just as frustrating as the maintenance problems. Calls often go unanswered, and getting clear information has been nearly impossible. Instead of feeling like my concerns were taken seriously, I felt ignored.

I'm sharing this because I don't want someone else to make the same mistake I did. If you're considering renting here, read the recent reviews carefully and do your research before signing a lease. My experience has been that once you've signed, getting issues addressed can be far more difficult than expected.

Hopefully this helps someone make an informed decision.

Hi Columbusions!

My family has lived in cbus for almost a decade and this is the first time we are watching the fireworks in downtown. I am so excited, def scared for the heat and the shenanigans that *could* go down.

I am not big fan of crowds.. is there any restaurants or areas that have good view to fireworks?

Happy 4th!

**UPDATE**!:
Ended up going! Found a sketchy lot, paid $4 and then walked to scioto for 10mins!
As soon as we got there the fireworks started. It was so pretty! 🫶🏽
Thanks guys!💙🤍❤️

I can’t go to bed anyone trying to do sum.
Columbus Ohio

Hey all! I’m a 23yo female who just moved to the Columbus Ohio area and I’m looking for some new friends! I’d love to talk and get to know people but I’m kinda socially awkward at first . How does one acquire friends?

WPA Friends:

Sherrod Brown and MS NOW are coming to Westerville Monday, and we’re invited to be part of this national exposure for our crucial Ohio Senate race!

MS NOW will be hosting a Meet & Greet with Sherrod, along with State Rep. Beryl Brown Piccolantonio (and likely other candidates) from 6-8 pm Monday, July 6.The location won’t be officially announced until 24 hours before the event, but we can tell you that it is on the Delaware County side of Westerville. In other words, right in our back yard.

So here’s the challenge for all of us: We want to pack the event with WPA members coming out in support of a race that truly could flip the entire U.S. Senate to Democratic control this November.

Here are the details we can share right now, along with a link to sign up:
What: MS NOW Meet & Greet with Sherrod Brown and Beryl Brown Piccolantonio
When: Monday, July 6, 6-8 pm
Where: The signup form merely says “Columbus, OH,” but we happen to know that it’s on the Delaware County side of Westerville

Signup: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe8XwUWdiUCMPsR0M74...
This event is likely to reach capacity very quickly, so sign up now, and we’ll see you Monday!

Wife has a three month contract at OSU in August. We found a short term rent on the 300 block of east 13th street near the fairgrounds. Safe? Cool neighborhood? Appreciate any feedback new neighbors. Cheers.

To piggy back on this question…I’m a bartender by trade. Any recs on some chill independent owned dives bars I should check out for employment?

I run a tournament at Hoof Hearted, Marengo. We have an event every Sunday, with doors opening at 12pm. The venue is badass with plenty of space. Im looking for players in the central Ohio area to come out and build the community here. I have an instagram with the link in my profile. Feel free to message me if you have questions. The venue has great ambience, and is laidback. Hope to see you there.

Hi Redditors ! I have a question on how I get in a project management I come from a call center or data entry background and I would love to get a certification and doing something administrative wise on a construction field. I don’t have any background in construction and I wanna know how to get my foot into the door on being a project manager , or a safety coordinator role . It doesn’t have to solely be in construction. It can be anything but safety coordinator is something that I’m looking forward to. I am in the central Columbus Ohio area.
