r/Humboldt

Hi, I’m a best man for an upcoming August wedding in Humboldt county and I need to do some bachelor planning in the Arcata area, ideally. We’re in our 30s and 40s so we’re looking to have fun but nothing has to be too rowdy or fancy. None of us are from the area (only the bride is) so I’m looking for a couple recommendations. I know it’s a low key area so I’m not expecting major city options but online searching has been tough.

-daytime suggestions like hikes or white water rafting? Fun group activity for the sober fellas.
-best bars (casual is fine but not excessively divey)
-anyone know how to source dancer(s) for a private party?

Thanks a bunch! Area looks beautiful and we can’t wait to see it.

Just sayin.

Said started at 10 PM. Was finished by 9:50. Bummer

if you want to protest, me and a few friends are protesting. not to hurt the workers, but to get mirandas new ownership to stop giving this murderer any money

..Still no cleanup. Is this normal?

What churches do everyone go to??? Spent most of my youth at Faith Center.

I grew up in a christian church, saw some good from it but mostly had very bad experiences with it. I do, however, love the idea of having a community of peaceful like-minded, non-religeous people who could gather a few times a month, do community events and recieve free childcare for a couple hours to hangout and learn some new stuff. Also a place people can meet to volunteer and do good works.

Im playing with the idea of trying to start a local satanic temple. People get afraid of the word satan and I am a bit anxious about violent pushback from the local christian community. But I'm digging for interest levels. What do you think of the idea?

Last year I accidentally purchased from a church that was homophobic and anti-choice. I would have rather supported a local school or community service. Learn from my mistakes!!

We just released a new song about people whose $60k trucks never see any work, give it a listen if you’re looking for new punk music!

Most of us are extremely upset about this situation and the best way we can feel better is to do something about it, to demand justice and change.

For better or worse, this happened in Humboldt. Like it or not the failure of these policies pass the buck around and our name is now attached.

The other issue that's brought up when talking about Humboldt is housing, then finding a place that allows pets.

Does anyone have any insight on how we can use the demand for the consideration of pets in Rentals.

I've always felt having a blanket No Pets policy forces people to give up their pets to Rescues, not to mention the safety, companionship or emotional regulation that people's mental health needs in these trying times.

If anyone has any insight on how to petition, advocate or progress any change for good that we can do as an outraged community, please advise.

Maybe something good can't come out of all this, but maybe its a opportunity for change. And for those of us lucky enough, hug your pets.

randomly started raining huge pieces of ash and soot by the mall, anyone know what happened?
