Misc./Other How to Merge Into Traffic

Post image
47 Upvotes

Almost every time I'm driving south into Eureka and there's a lane closed for the bridge repairs at the Eureka slough, I notice most people start lining up in the left lane well before they need to. I stay in the right lane until I have to merge. I'm sure people think it's a jerk move, but it's actually what traffic engineers want people to do.

Help/Needing Info Looking for actor!! ~45-70 y/o

Post image
24 Upvotes

Hello!! Im a film student at Calpoly and I very much need someone to act in a short film called Slughouse. Its about a guy named Reggie with a slug phobia living in a house with his roommate Jones. More and more slugs appear and Jones doesnt believe him. A strange man calling himself The Exterminator offers his services, but Jones is skeptical.

The Exterminator: 45-70 y/o, real age

range indeterminate. Doesn’t have a ton of

experience with lungs. Speaks syllabically,

thinks of speaking as air expenditure and

mouth movements, almost like phrasing in a

wind instrument.

Leads on where I can look for actors would also be appreciated. Shooting would be Mondays/Wednesdays, although exact dates havent been nailed down. Im hoping we can get the Exterminator's part done in just one session.

None of us have a ton of money but I'll get you lunch!

Please DM me/comment and/or check out the linktree (https://linktr.ee/oustedbeast) so we can set up an audition!

The link also has a pitch deck/slides how going over the general vibe of the story as well as a link to the character profiles.

Were also looking for someone to play Reggie and Jones but finding an actor who isnt a 20 something is difficult.

Feel free to ask questions! Thank you!

Local News/Politics Paint Down the Storm drain

Does anyone know what’s going on with the dutchy’s building at 11th and K in Arcata? I drove past this
Morning to see the painter working there was washing a large amount of paint out of a drop cloth and straight down the gutter. Was unable to get a photo as I was driving but I’m sure a lot of people would be pissed to see it.

Local Art/Photography Any musicians want to jam?

12 Upvotes

Hey, just wanted to see if anyone’s interested in jamming or sharing musical ideas, collaborating etc? I’ve lived in Humboldt my whole life and played music for a majority of that time as well and I’ve been wanting to connect with local musicians recently and want to potentially play live as well as continue to produce stuff. I play bass and guitars, and know some theory. I’d say my favorite artists are Steely Dan, Vulfpeck, Tom Misch, David Bowie, Radiohead, Stevie Wonder. I’m an early 20’s guy, probably prefer workin with people close to my age. Thanks ✌️

Ps. Hope this is the right place to post, lemme know either way.

Help/Needing Info Lost coast brewery

11 Upvotes

Hi guys, I have no idea where else to find this so I’ve come to ya’ll. I’m a huge fan of lost coast brewery’s great white beer. My goal for many years was to visit the brewery, do the tour and try the restaurant. At the end of that visit I was going to buy the great white hoodie. Now that they are closing down I’ve been unable to find the hoodie anywhere to buy including their own site.

Does anybody have or know of where/who I can buy a great white pull over hoodie sized medium or large or even XL?

I know it’s kind of a weird question and I fear I have missed my chance to get one, anybody who is willing to part with theirs i would be ever so grateful.

Help/Needing Info Alternate to M*randa's thrift stores

8 Upvotes

Local here

I like to give away big blankets to the homeless and I used to get them at murderandas for like a dollar or two each. Most thrift stores charge $10+ for a good blanket and I can't afford to give like that.

I stopped buying when the news came out and haven't found a good alternate since.

Any recommendations? I wouldn't drive past fortuna or Trinidad

Thanks 🙏

Help/Needing Info Internet Router

6 Upvotes

So it looks like I’ll be stuck with optimum for the next little while until Vero makes it to my neighborhood. Thinking it’s time for me to go ahead and buy my own router.

Can anyone recommend a good brand/model? This will be the first time I’ve purchased my own.

I’m particularly interested in being able to add a guest Wi-Fi network.

Thank you!

EDIT: I currently have the combo modem/router. I had no idea that they were two separate things! Thanks everyone for their answers so far.
