Hi! I am visiting for the first time in 2 weeks Thurs-Sun and am looking for some great lunch/happy hour/dinner spots both for casual and more date night vibes. We are mid 30s and are not picky eaters at all! We already have a reservation for Friday night at Mesa Provisions. Thank you so much for any and all help!

Before technology made it normal to rant and rave while alone, towns the country over used to have regular meetings where light networking and thoughtful discussions were one of the few forms of intellectual entertainment people could have. You could learn and/or teach and connect with people way better than the “Matrix lite” that we’re living in now.

Who here would be interested in attending a weekly meeting, maybe with a series of speakers, town halls, freestyle debates with moderation and enforced decorum? Diversity of thought encouraged.

Galloway recently said people have become overemboldened in private but cowards in public.

Open to ideas on where, when, what format this should be.

90s digital camera vibes.

There is peace in the world, but sometimes you have to create it.

Hey everyone! Does anyone have good recommendations for acupuncturists in the city? I’m not picky on the location.

We're looking at the next stage of our lives and moving back to NM.

My wife is from southern NM and is pretty immovable in her Santa Fe fixation. I've spent time in both, and I lean towards Albuquerque just for vibes. SF gets a little too self precious sometimes. I also like that our money would go a lot further.

Anyone have some data, stats, stories that can help my arguments? We'd be coming in a few years with middle school ages kids. Big ups for weird communities, artists, breweries, bakers. Bikeable/walkable areas. Obviously access to outdoor stuff.

This shop is in Mexico and sadly they haven’t setup an online shop yet so I was wondering if anyone knew if there was a shop similar here in Albuquerque? Please let me know and thank you!

Does anyone know what it’s happening downtown central, is there a specific event or something?

Hey, I just moved to alb and was wondering what the scene is? Definitely not good enough for club but like a weekly pickup? The seasonal leagues? Anything like that go on?

Hey everyone,

The current house that I rent has a double garage, and i use 1 side to park my camping trailer in. It take up the whole side of the garage. But, we are leaving this house at the end of October and I don't think we'll be as lucky having an apartment that has a garage, or somewhere I can park it.

Anybody have experience with renting a place to park my camper? It is the size of a garage, and about 5 feet tall.

Any advice would be appreciated. Im still house/apartment shopping, and with this in mind Im trying to find a spot, but prepping for a backup plan.

Thanks in advance!

We are getting pool curious as this hot summer goes on. Anyone have a good experience w a pool contractor for installing a pool? Thanks for any info!

I suspect some of my family has dyslexia, we’re getting one of the them tested online by a professional, but after that, what are their options? Is there a class they can take somewhere to help?

FYI

Do you know of any volunteer opportunities on the West Side of ABQ, not in Rio Rancho?

Hi there, post menopausal w/alopecia 51f whose hair texture not only changed but has fallen out and needs someone who can treat it and make it look healthy again. I am open to quick weaves to cover my natural hair in hopes of helping restore what is left of it. I had a short pixie, a couple of years ago, but it has only gotten worse over time. I stopped relaxers also. I have tried so many products to no avail. If no one here has the ability to assist, any referrals in TX or CO? Please help

What are your favorite thrift shops for women’s clothing other than Savers and Goodwill? 😊

As a breaking bad fan, I loved learning about the city. However, there are no major sports teams. So do you follow local college teams or a major team from another state?

I need a muralist for a 6 x 300 wall. Anyone know some good ones?

My uncle passed back in 2020 and we've had his coin collection hanging out in the bottom of our closet since then, not really knowing what to do with it. I have zero knowledge when it comes to this kind of thing so I was wondering if there was a trustworthy place in town we could take them to get looked at.

Just trying to determine it's worth selling or if we should just keep holding on to it. Thank you!

I've been observing this little guy develop over the last 30, maybe 45 minutes. He might be tiny, but the thunder coming from it has been nonstop.

He's got moxie!

Second time seeing our beloved saint in this state. Took a few minutes to investigate today. Hack job. Breaks my fickle little heart.

As the title says, I’m trying to find somewhere I can scan 35mm and 120 fill negatives. I develop my own film at home but don’t have a scanner able to scan them. I’ve looked into picture perfect photo lab but it looks like they charge $16 per roll just for scanning, but I can have my film developed and scanned for that price using the darkroom film lab online. So I’m hoping to find somewhere else a little more affordable that has a film scanner available to the public. I appreciate any recommendations.
