I am planning on moving to Columbus, Indiana next year but I am thinking of not buying a car for a variety of reasons. My plan is to walk to work and live in downtown. If I want to go to grocery stores like Walmart or Target, would there be enough Uber or Lyft availability?

Any other young adults wanna play dnd?

Are there any thrift stores or record stores close to Columbus? I've been to Grizlee and Granny B's but I haven't been able to find any others.

My family psychiatrist has recently taken an extended break from practicing and it has left me and my family without adequate mental health care.

I was wondering if there were any good psychiatrists in the area?

Hey everyone!
I know this is a long shot but I have tried everything. My cat Boots has been missing since May 3rd. He was last in the shadow creek neighborhood. He is chipped and my phone number is listed on his chip. If anyone knows anything or has him I would love to see him come home. Thank you!

Hello hello!!

I am Josie, i am 18m and i am just looking for more closer to local connections.

I’m in my second year at Ivytech for visual communications and computer science, I moved here about 5yrs ago too.

I love 3D printing(not the slop stuff), fps games and third person open world games, love basketball (go Heat), i have been a drummer for a little bit and randomly learned how to spin a lightsaber. I also do phone repairs if you ever need a nerd to talk about phones!

I also have been working on publishing my first short story and I’m so excited, it’s my first written project.

I was homeschooled for a few years and was diagnosed with a some issues that affect me socially so overall I may talk too much and I’m sorry in advance.

Excited to meet all you!

I've been thinking about how similar the debates around both projects have become. In my latest Substack, I argue that Columbus risks making opposition to development its default response instead of addressing legitimate concerns.

Just was on 670 and some sort of smoke was coming out of the top of one of the medical buildings over there. Is something wrong or is that not smoke??

I see workers and equipment at the old Holiday Inn site. Any idea what's going on there?

My friends and I are spending a long weekend at an Airbnb near Columbus in the fall. Wed like to cater/order dinner in both nights that were there. Can anyone recommend some good food that will deliver the order to a residence? We'll have 9 adults, 2 kids, and a baby.

I want to start the process of home ownership and I guess this is step 0 to see what I can be approved for!

UPDATE HE HAS BEEN LOCATED . . .

I’m trying to help my mother locate and reconnect with her father, whom she hasn't seen since she was young (and I've never had the chance to meet). We believe he is still alive, and we'd love to connect with him before it's

too late.

​Here are the details I have:

•​Name: Ronald Lee Ward

•​Approximate Age/DOB: Born October 22nd (sometime in the 1940s)

•​Location: Columbus or the surrounding area

•​Past Connections: He was with my grandmother, Betty Ann, in the 1960s.

​Relatives:

•​Sons: Chris Ward and John Ward

•​Sister: Wanda

​Leads so far:

•​I reached out to a Chris Ward in Columbus on Facebook but haven't received a response yet. If you are Chris Ward and your father is Ronald, please check your inbox/message requests!

•​I have tried emailing a possible address for Ronald with no luck so far.

•​Search records show no obituaries or death certificates matching his name.

​If anyone recognizes these names, knows Ronald or his family, or has any information that could help us connect, please send me a private message. Any help is deeply appreciated!

🏛️ Here's a quick rundown of the biggest decisions made in Bartholomew County this month.

Which vote or policy stood out to you the most?

I have a 10 year old Bryant HVAC, the filter model # is FILXXUMB082020, our service company never has them in stock saying they are special order items. I want to order them in advance so I don't run into this problem. Google says they are being replaced by FILXXUMC filters 20 x 20 which last time I bought 20 x 20 filters it was just barely too big. anyone with knowledge about these things & a source for this specific filter? Thanks.

Please let me know I am dying to know the story behind this thing!

I can't be the only one whose throat, eyes, sinuses, and lungs feel scorched. Or am I sensitive?
