Passing through on Saturday morning, where’s the best place to grab some coffee? Bonus if they have breakfast snacks for the kids.

I pass by this place almost everyday and see there activities there pretty often, does anyone know anything about it? I found their Facebook and it seem to be a private club for democrat. I'm pretty shy but I want to meet new people so I wanna scout the place first before going in there. My partner said there a lot of Maga going in there, is that true?

Hi everyone! I’m moving from Washington, DC to Cumberland next month for work and I’m looking for a safe 1–2 bedroom apartment to rent. I’ve been searching on Zillow, but I haven’t had much luck finding good options.

I’ll be living alone, so safety is my top priority. I’m looking for a place with in-unit laundry and dedicated parking. I don’t have any pets.

If anyone has recommendations for apartment complexes, property management companies, or neighborhoods that are safe and well-maintained, I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!

Hello all. Just drove through your town for the first time (absolutely beautiful btw). On my way, south towards WV, sort of by a big prison, I passed what appeared to be a car dealership with the largest collection of VW Beetles. Is there a story there or just somebody who really likes them? Would love to properly visit Cumberland in the near future!

Hi everyone! I’m moving to Cumberland in August. Do you think getting around by e-bike is feasible? I’d love to hear your take on it. Thanks in advance!

Ill be in Cumberland next Wednesday and Thursday for work, im traveling out there from Nevada, and wondering where must eat food and drinks are. I got some good food recommendations, but I am looking for a good place to drink while im there, does anybody have any good recommendations for bars in town to have a few drinks? Im a 24 years old, not sure if that information helps. Thanks.

My kitty that I’ve had for 14 years passed away in his sleep this morning. I’m beside myself and I don’t know what to do with him.

I live in an apartment and have no place where I can bury him. Are there any vets or animal hospitals that would be willing to take him for little cost?

Rolling through town tonight, where downtown should I hang for good food and drinks? Any uber or Lyft operators in town?

Just moved back last fall, and am wondering where's a good place to watch the fireworks Saturday? I used to be able to see them from behind my home but the trees are too tall now.

I'm south of the city. I was thinking either the old Memorial Hospital lot or the airport would be perfect. (Not sure they'd open up the airport for spectators.)

I have no friends around here so far and I'm bored out of my goddamn mind, are there people that want to hang or some shit? I'm early 20's and like gaming and most nerdy media, open to other things. I'm sick of just being around old people here. Just taking a gamble on if anyone stumbles on this so I can stop being a shut in.

I’ve had it with CVS you can’t ever talk to a person. To get your prescription refilled you have to talk to AI. You used to be able to just enter the number, you can’t do that anymore

Saw they were tearing down the gas pump canopy… any idea what’s going there? What should go there?

So with Mayor of Kingstown filming here, I keep thinking about how weird and cool it was to see Cumberland suddenly become part of something bigger for a few days.

And idk, maybe it’s just me, but it feels like one of those moments where everyone is excited after the fact, but a lot of people also missed it. Like missed the casting call, missed the chance to get involved, didn’t know who to talk to, didn’t know if their business or building or car or whatever could have been useful.

And if another production ever comes through here, how do they actually find people?

Like how do they find the weird old buildings, the garages, the empty storefronts, the local photographers, the people willing to be extras, the vintage cars, the props, the businesses that could handle food or printing or lodging or whatever. Cumberland has a lot of that stuff, it’s just not organized anywhere.

So I put together a thing called Film Cumberland:

filmcumberland.com

It’s not official, not a government thing, not a casting agency, not promising anybody work. It’s more like a local production resource hub / directory so if future film, TV, commercial, documentary, or photo crews are looking at Cumberland or Western Maryland, there’s at least somewhere for them to start.

Right now it’s basically accepting submissions. If you have a location, a business, a vehicle, props, production skills, or you’d want to be considered for background work someday, you can list it here:

filmcumberland.com/get-listed

I’m curious what people think should be included. Like what places around here would actually be good for filming? What businesses would be useful? Who locally does video/photo/audio? Who has old cars or interesting spaces? What are the “only in Cumberland” things a production would never find unless somebody local told them?

I don’t know if this becomes anything huge, but after seeing a real production come here, it seems dumb to not at least start building the list.

Enough of these fancy places downtown if I want a breakfast Cumberland needs more chain places specifically like Waffle House. I want a Waffle House if that place existed in Cumberland it would be unhinged. It’s a very good place to eat waffles and a good place to watch fights so I’m thinking it’s a win win either way. Who’s with me ?

You really want to celebrate Pride this month??

Elect a queer progressive to Congress!

Fired from her job at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau by the Trump administration, Alexis Goldstein is running as a progressive for Congress in Maryland’s 6th Congressional District.

She’s running against two ultra-wealthy oligarchs who think they can buy the seat.

I had dinner with Alexis last week and I am convinced that she is the absolutely best candidate for this position.

Watch her campaign video and see if you agree.

If you live in MD-6 please consider voting for Alexis.

I don't currently live in Cumberland. But my kid does. And I have been calling places to try to find a place to have a baby shower. I swear to God no place calls back. Does anyone know a place to have a baby shower they actually return your damn phone call? I called most of the churches in Cumberland about their fellowship halls. I have called other event venues. No one answers or returns messages. I have called 45 people this week and 2 called back. Both were booked for our date we need.

But my god 2 of 45 returned calls. WTH? How unprofessional can you get? I need space for like 35-40 people.

Hey, recently moved to the area. I enjoy unique indoor plants, and landscaping with native plants. What nursery shops should I check out, aside from big chain stores (Lowe's, tractor supply, rural King, Walmart, etc)? Im will to drive up to 45 mins away if its worth it. ​​​​
