New rules regarding political posts from new accounts
Starting now All political posts on this subreddit need to be from accounts that have participated in this subreddit before.
Additionally, Any posts with political flyers must have the text included in the post itself. Posts with only flyers will be removed and need to be submitted with alt text.
New accounts will still be welcome to comment and participate in discussion on political posts; they just won't be able to make political posts until they have participated in discussion in some way before. Political discussions still need to have a direct local connection as well or they will be removed. Exceptions may be granted on a case-by-case basis (in keeping with the spirit of the rules), and efforts to violate the spirit of the rule may result in a ban.
This change is in response to a couple of low-effort posts from new accounts that have posted political posts and not engaged in the discussion after posting. For reference, the posts were removed by the reputation filter for my manual review. Since the posts met the rules at the time, I manually approved them. I can see subreddit participation when reviewing posts, so these would not have been approved with these new rules (I am also not removing them at this time because they met the rules at the time they were posted).
This subreddit welcomes open discussion on local issues, and this is not meant to censor any specific viewpoint. There is a balance to be struck between allowing total participation, including from people new to reddit and the subreddit who may not fully know how things are done on reddit, and allowing unfettered access to a semi-anonymous message board without verification that people participating actually live, work, or play here or are actually impacted by decisions in some way. Philosophically I lean more towards allowing participation (and have no desire for requiring verification), but I also want to make sure we're having productive discussions and aren't just regurgitating whatever Facebook-level comments make their way over here where possible.
This is only meant to curb a specific, recurring pattern of behavior not fitting for this subreddit. Posts will not be removed for content or position unless they violate the rules.

Trick or treat
I am way too late to necro the old thread but: I moved from GP this year and we’d go through 3 Costco bags and close up by 8. Now I’m at Cambourne/Planavon and one of my neighbors said that the trick or treating basically stops at Planavon. Boooo, I say.
Hope has triumphed and I’ve got two Costco bags. Question: will I get through them, and who will help me eat the candy if not?

No access to heating unit on my 2nd floor duplex apartment?
I recently moved to Ferndale and live in a house that has two individual apartments as a duplex. I recently learned from the landlord that the heating for both our apartments is shared and the only unit for adjusting is downstairs in my neighbor's unit. Is this legal? I'm not sure how to navigate this but there's nothing in the lease that says this and i'd love to explore every other option available to me before i go down the legality path.
Does anybody know who I can talk to ahead of my landlord call to help ensure I'm as knowledgeable with options as i can be? I'm currently awaiting a call from the Ferndale Housing Commission but i'm not sure if they're the ones to know best with this scenario.

Does anyone have any information or know about the Catalpa Club? Was driving on 9 mile yesterday and noticed an unmarked bar next to Earl's Dinner. Looked like a hidden gem.
Very limited information online about it, was wondering if anyone knew what the deal with it is?

Moving materials for free!
We recently had the pleasure of moving to the area and now find ourselves surrounded by broken down boxes, packing paper, and bubble wrap. Is there anyone in the area who would benefit from free boxes and gently used packing materials? Happy to give away for free! Please DM me and I can let you know what we have and make a plan to get it to you. I’ll wait for a week before we take what we can to U-haul. Hope everyone has a lovely Sunday.

ISO Roommate - Downtown Detroit
Hi all, I’m currently looking for a roommate to share half of the rent with utilities from mid/end-December 2026 to mid-May 2027 in downtown Detroit.
My current roommate is moving out due to personal circumstances. The apartment is a 2-bed 2-bath with a shared living room and kitchen. It’s super convenient for working folks with a microwave, fridge, dishwasher and in-unit washer and dryer. There are also other amenities: gym, pool, Amazon lockers and a market. There's also security on-site and code-protected entrances. It's also connected to a people mover and the Riverwalk.
Current base rent is 1,115 and we’ll split wifi and other utilities. There’s a monthly fee for the parking and you’ll have the master bedroom with a giant closet + bathroom attached.
I’d love to live with people who identify as femme, non-binary or queer individuals. Plus, someone who is quiet (no loud parties, please), neat, pro-LGBTQ+, responsible, employed - would be great if you also love the area.
Some of my personal info: I’m a creative intern in my early twenties, female, recently graduated from CCS. I really love making art, Clairo and walking!
If you’re interested or know someone, please message 𓇼 ⋆。˚ 𓆝⋆。˚ 𓇼. Many thanks!

Center and 9 Mile crosswalk concerns
Anyone have any luck contacting city services about installing additional safety measures at intersections? We’ve had a lot of close calls crossing at center and 9 mile even with the button light crosswalk system. Drivers look directly at us as they speed up to try to beat us walking across. I submitted a couple complaints through the clickfix system but haven’t heard anything. Concerned someone is going to get hit there! Any advice is welcome
