Around 8pm today mid-door dashing adventure, what I assume was my drive shaft exploded leaving me stranded on the side of Riverside near Martin in what could be the most precarious place it could have happened (outside of a roundabout.) as one would expect there were a lot of people honking, shouting things (pretty sure one little girl asked if I was ok while flying by, which if her mom didn’t get her ice cream or something for being kind, she should). I think most would agree people are, in general, garbage and most of the comments reflected that, but one passerby in particular had a comment that I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciated.
Amidst the cacophony of cars passing, and the sound of familiar music made unrecognizable from Doppler effect, the phone call with a tow truck driver and the Dublin PD officer lending assistance, and the persistent thump of my own heartbeat from the instant shift of my night from bad to worse. While looking over the edge of the guard rail wondering if there’d be too much foliage in the way, or if my body weight would be enough to push it aside and get the job done or if I’d just find myself in a wheelchair that would present a new array of things that could go awry. One comment came shining through like a psychological life vest. “YOU CAN’T PARK THERE”. I don’t know who you are, where your silver car was headed, but I hope it was everything you’ve ever dreamed of. Absolutely masterful work, sir.

Idk if this will even reach anybody and PLS tell me if I’m overreacting, but apparently there’s a man out at Blacklick woods that likes to follow women around the park. I was out at 8 am this morning to bird watch when I bent over to tie my shoe on the Beech trail where a road cuts across the trail. Some guy stopped his car in the middle of the road and just watched me tying my shoe. He then proceeded to park somewhere nearby and follow me into the woods. He caught up while I was sitting on a bench and he decides to sit next to me on said bench. Had his phone open but was just looking at me the whole time. I got up to leave and shortly after, I heard him get up and start walking behind me again as well. Again, I could absolutely be misreading something or making a situation where there isn’t one, but something about that experience did not feel right at all and it made the hairs on my neck stand up.

EDIT:
He was a black man that looked to be in his 20s. Around 5’9 to 5’10 maybe? White and beige checkered Sherpa hoodie.
He drove a small white car that looked like maybe a fiat or something similar? It was smart car shaped, but definitely not a smart car.

just wondering!

For the past couple weeks, there has not been many Citizen app notifications. Does anybody know what’s going on with it now??
