The women's huron valley correctional facility in Ypsi has long been under scrutiny for dangerous conditions but the conditions are still dangerous - including black mold and lack of medical care. 2 deaths in the facility in the last week have prompted more urgency around the issue. If you can please join the event tonight or share the info!
Like it’s a college town but a terrible dating scene or full of racist
Hey all, has anyone donated old prescription eye glasses before? I have a lot of old pairs and would like to donate but not sure to who/where. TY!
Hi! i’m in search of a safe apartment complex in ypsilanti area! I have a dog that’s around 60 pounds so that’s important. i’m trying to spend around $1,300 a month but I would like that to include all things like water electricity and pet rent as well. I’m going to be working in lincoln consolidated school district so i’d like to stay around 20 minutes from the district. Any recommendations help!
I’m looking for lemon bars from a bakery (a grocery store bakery would work) preferably in Ypsi. It’d be great to have both gluten free and regular ones! Any ideas?
So I don't live in Ypsi anymore, but was born and spent most of my life there, so Bill's is a lifetime staple. I get a few dogs every time I go back that way, but with gas prices I can't do that as often. So Im hoping someone has a copycat chili recipe. We all know there is nothing like it from any store or any other restaurant. Appreciate any help.
Looking to get my car's oil changed. Called a couple places and got quotes of $55-85 for a fuckin oil change even when providing the oil and filter myself, not even for full service (Hoover Street Auto Repair was one of the most egregious.)
Anywhere around here that isn't scamming people for 5-10 minutes of labor or should I just change it myself and use the oil as accelerant for bonfires instead of recycling it?

There’s gotta be SOMETHING better to say about us
A buddy of mine had his Buick parked in the front lawn of his house. He was away for several weeks. Upon return the car was found missing and the fence surrounding his front yard destroyed. Apparently, the city impounded the vehicle. Is it legal for them to literally break down your fence and take your legally registered vehicle from your own private property?

Hey y'all.
I'm a home cook. I'd like to start learning how to barbecue. Got an itch for it when I lived in ATX a few years ago, and then cooked my first brisket last fall. I had brisket from Ricewood this weekend and it was so good I wanted to cry 😭 😂
I just have to learn to barbecue. Are there any local groups of folks who just like to hang and have cookouts, learn and experiment? Barbecue, chili, etc? I'd love to learn from others. ✌️
Hi all, unfortunately my first post here is a sad one. There is an all white cat who has passed away on Dalton ave off of Washtenaw ave. I don’t feel comfortable posting pictures but wanted to post here in case anyone is looking.
I know the kitty is in heaven now.
UPDATE: A person reached via DM to inform me that he’s a well known stray in the area and some neighbors are going to collect him and give him a proper send off. I appreciate anyone who upvoted or read this post at all and hope good things for all cats forever.
I noticed there are a lot of kind people looking out for kitties on this sub. Dogs too. 🏆 Thanks for being you.
Im getting desperate and Im hoping the people here could possibly help. My cat has been stuck in this huge tree in my backyard for almost two days now with no signs of them coming down on their own. I have called the sheriff department, the fire department, Ive called at least 7 different tree services with no help, and my neighbors have called 20 different services with nothing. If there is anyone in the southeast area who would be willing to help please let me know. I willing to paying the cost I just really need someone to at least try.
Maker Works is running a series of free laser demos on our new 80 Watt laser tonight from 4 - 7 PM. Feel free to drop by anytime!
Emphasis is on engraving and cutting hardwoods, but I'll be there and happy to run demos engraving metal on our fiber laser as well. Just ask!
Found this cutie last night right by EMU and he/she came right up to me for pets and followed me inside after a couple tuna treats. Vet found a microchip but it's not registered so there's no owner info. Is this anyone's kitty?
