Does anyone feel like the Ohio Democrats are doing absolutely nothing in advance of this election? I've seen the mudslinging ad about Amy Acton drugs and alcohol combo more times than I can count. Yet I haven't seen one ad the other way about Ramaswarmy being a shill for tech billionaires, promoting far right conspiracy theories, etc.

Tons of ads dragging Sherrod Brown through the mud "he voted to give your tax dollars to illegal immigrants", but literally only one ad I've seen about Jon Husted cutting healthcare funding.

So many canvassers at my house in favor of Husted that I'm about to get a no soliciting sign, and only one single time some little old lady trying to give me a Sherrod Brown sign. Which surprised me because normally the boomer population is all about the Republicans.

So what gives? Have the Ohio Dems just conceded and decided to spend any money?

Hi all!

I’m considering moving to Cincinnati from NYC. I’ve been in NYC for 5 years now and now have a job offer that is making me consider Cincinnati.

I just visited this past week- Seems like a up and coming place.
I also read about the government putting in effort to develop it significantly which is great to see. But I haven’t been able to grasp how it is like. To me it seems to be between New Haven and Philly (vibe wise - correct me if I’m wrong).

FWIW im a 26M, considering living in OTR area. Just wanted insight from people who have been here, even implants like me. How’s it been so far for yall?

Would love any input!

I’ve seen a few posts like this from the past but wanted an update for 2026.

Thanks!

It appears that many suburban cities north of Cincinnati have some of the highest concentrations of Flock cameras in the entire country. Mason has 47 with an average of 2.4 cameras per square mile. Sharonville has 38 reported cameras. Lebanon has 21. This region as a whole is highly saturated and a huge problem. You can check out the map yourself on deflock.org.

With that being said, if you have not seen any journalists reporting, or the current discourse on social media, this Halloween night is "DeFlock Day". Allegedly, many protestors will be wearing non-identifying masks, costumes, and sunglasses, leaving devices at home, and engage in "deflocking"- whatever that means.....

Just heard it through the grapevine and thought this would be interesting to report ;)

My wife and I have been wanting to try a deli in Cincinnati ever since we moved here a month ago. It seems like the delis here are very good and there is a lot of them. However we can never find a single agreed upon deli from all the Reddit posts, Instagram reels and TikTok’s. So is there one spot that is a must try or the best deli in your opinion?

Thank you all in advance

ALL wheels welcome!  BMX, skateboards, rollerblades, quad-wheel skates, and scooters.

RecentIy I fell down a rabbit hole in the digitized archives - the Cincinnati Museum Center and Library of Congress have hundreds of the city engineer's construction photos from 1920–1925, most of which barely circulate online. I ended up making a 14-minute documentary trying to answer the question that bugged me: not that the subway failed, but why.

The Subway That Never Ran a Train

The short version: the $6M bond was approved in 1916, fixed in dollars, then WWI froze construction for four years while inflation roughly doubled the cost. The city started digging anyway in 1920, knowing the math. What got me is the detail I keep coming back to: there's a finished platform edge at the Race Street station, poured to the exact height of a train floor - for a train that was never ordered.

Plan for traffic jams and hide your couch

I was at Arlin's Sunday night around 11 pm, leaving the bar to go to my car in the parking garage behind the shell.Walking up I saw a cop arresting a homeless man and thought nothing of it besides the usual, "it's illegal to be homeless and exist", rhetoric.

I get in my car and 4 more cop cars pull up for this one white man. A larger female cop struggles out of her vehicle and goes up to this black man sitting on the steps leading up from the lot. I don't know what was said, but he began to bash out the nearby car windows, including my friends who was stuck at the bar because the overwhelming police response.

The first cop had the situation under control and was leading the initial victim to the car, all the while needing assistance helping him down the slope of the lot. The 4 following units then blocked cars into the lot and breathalyzer'd anyone trying to leave while not moving their cars to let people out.

After the situation was escalated and the homeless were taken away 2 cops sat outside the bar and pulled anyone over leaving the lot. Some ginger looking freak pulled my partner over, who demanded a test on the grounds of leaving a bar, as if designated drivers don't exist?? We blew clear but will likely steer clear of this neighborhood with cops with a quota
