Do you ever drive to Phoenix just to eat dinner?

If you do, what do you go up there for that you can't get in Tucson? I'm kind of a foodie and just bought a new car and want to go for a drive.

Camera by splash pad at Purple Heart Park

Why is there a camera right next to a children’s splash pad at Purple Heart Park? I didn’t walk the whole park, but I couldn’t see any other ones from where I was. This seems very creepy and 100% useless. Is this a flock camera? Is there a way to get rid of this? Like emailing the city?

What is this all black building?

If this question has already been asked, my apologies. I saw this walking on Craycroft next to Alice Vail middle school. It looks highly fortified with high intensity perimeter lighting with flock cameras. Why?

I'm on a journey to shop 100% local. What are your favorite local shops in Tucson? Especially near downtown?

I shop at the co-op for all groceries and most toiletries/household goods, but I'm struggling to find places that offer the following:

- gardening supplies

- stationary/paper planner supplies

- brand-name/clinical skincare products like Differin, Vanicream, etc.

- pet supplies for cat/reptile

- plus-size clothes, natural fibers mostly

I'd appreciate any recommendations for the above, as well as any other local shops you love in town!

Cave Locations near Tucson?

Hi guys! I'm in the process of making a short film and I'd like to have a short scene in a cave. It doesn't have to be anything crazy because everything would be filmed near the entrance with sunlight being visible. With that being said, where could I go? I'd rather not disrupt cavers and such, but I don't even know where to start looking. Any recommendations would be great, thank you.

Trenchcoat Wizard

Has anyone else see my dude in the long tan trenchcoat and wizard hat? Anybody know his story. No hate, I am just genuinely curious. Is he a LARPer or just your typical Tucson eccentric?

Bar Magic Man

Anybody else encounter the Magic Man when you’re out at bars? I’ve seen him at Danny’s and The Shelter but he’s probably all over town. He’s a scruffy older white dude that just bar hops and does card tricks, never drinks. His catchphrase is “There ain’t no fucking way!”

Lennar home reviews?

Hi- I’m thinking about purchasing a new build home through Lennar, and was wondering what those of you who might have/had experience working with them think about the homes and company.

They also don’t seem to have as many options as KB for personalization- at least from what I’ve seen so far, so I’d love to know anyone’s experience with that!

Thank you in advance

Two Deaf Visitors to Tucson Deported by Border Patrol

The Tucson Subreddit pulled my post. They said the info had to be vetted by a legit news organization.

Anyway, Rapid Response responded to this call on Friday. I'll link to the Instagram article, but here's the text in case you don't have IG.

Jesús, a deaf man, was traveling in a vehicle he owned with another deaf friend.

According to the family, both men were degally in the United States and the vehicle was properly documented.

They were stopped by police while traveling on public roads.

They complied with the stop.

THEY ARE DEAF.

COMMUNICATION WAS

A BARRIER.

Jesús lowered the windows and attempted to communicate with the officers.

According to the family, establishing effective communication was difficult throughout the encounter.

An accessible communication method was needed.

THE DOCUMENTS WERE THERE.

- Jesús presented his visa

- Driver's license was presented

- Vehicle documentation was presented

- The other man had immigration documentation

- According to the family, that documentation could be verified

His companion did not have his visa with him at the time.

The family reports that it had been left at the address where he was staying.

THE ENCOUNTER ENDED IN ARREST.

According to the family, instead of the situation being resolved through an accessible means of communication, both men were arrested.

They were ultimately transferred to immigration facilities in Nogales, Arizona.

JESÚS' VISA WAS WITHDRAWN.

The case remains ongoing and is being addressed with legal counsel in the United States.

DISABILITY SHOULD NEVER BECOME A BARRIER TO EXERCISING YOUR RIGHTS.

Deaf people have the right to understand what is happening to them, communicate with authorities, and have meaningful access to appropriate communication during police and immigration procedures.

We are not asking for anyone to be above the law.

We are asking that the law protect everyone's rights

24 and new to Tucson

Ill admit I dont have a social circle here and looking for things to do. I just study for my masters and work. Occasionally I go to the university of arizona library to study. My masters is online, I should've had it in person and do it at the college to actually meet people. My coworker mentioned that the college has clubs and his wife and him are apart of. I dont know, I am not a student with the college and I graduated when I was 22. Besides hiking and museums, what is there to do to meet people?

Off-road diesel stations?

Arizona and Texas are temporarily allowing the use of off-road dyed diesel because it’s tax-free and cheaper because of how high the prices are

I saw a map of the places, but a lot of them don’t have phone numbers. The only one I was able to get in contact with was for fleet vehicles only

Has anyone done this before, or know about any that are for the public to use?

I’m in midtown
