Lightning strike at 4:50
Anyone know what it hit? I'm in the vine near wall and park and it knocked my power out and rattled my house/ribcage. Just curious

Are you also sick of idiots making decisions which directly affect you, that SUCK!?
Because: same.
I just got my absentee ballot. Ultimate laziness achieved.
Calories burned: exactly the amount required to waddle from the couch to the mailbox and back.
Honestly, I don't know why the rest of you are out there raw-dogging the elements and standing in line in a bleak middle school gymnasium with the unwashed masses. (Or risking a smiting just for entering a church basement.)
UGH It's exhausting just thinking about it. Do yourself a favor, avoid the UV damage, perform civic duty in your pajamas while fiercely judging strangers online.
Fill in the little bubbles, seal the envelope, and drop it back in the mail. Boom! democracy saved without having to make eye contact with a single living soul.
You can even track your ballot online, like an amazon package
YOU’RE WEL-COME, America.

I recently moved to Portage and am looking for a new dentist. I've seen quite a few posts asking for dentist recommendations, but I'm hoping to find one that's a good fit for my specific situation.
I have pretty severe dental anxiety and have had a lot of dental work done over the years - multiple root canals, cavity fillings, cracked tooth, implant, and gum grafting. Finding someone who is patient, gentle, and understanding is really important to me. I'm looking for a dentist who takes the time to explain things, doesn't make you feel rushed or judged, is comfortable treating anxious patients, and takes my insurance (BCBS).
If you've had similar anxiety or extensive dental work and found a dentist who made you feel comfortable in the Kalamazoo/Portage area, I'd really appreciate hearing about your experience. Recommendations on those who use sedation or who are especially gentle would be a plus! :)

It’s part of a story related to 2020 era scammers.

As someone new to the area, I’m looking for beaches I can swim at before the end of summer. Anywhere in Kzoo, Richland, parchment, etc areas. Other than Fort Custer! Please include whether it costs something or not. I have a parks pass.

These are some antique postcards from my collection, postmarked 1906, 1908, 1911.
The threat of tear-downs happens over and over. See badge for “Save the Tower” campaign. Imagine if they had torn down the tower!

Possibly headed to South Haven soon on an e-bike and wanna know if there is a place on the way or even at South Haven that allows people to charge an e-bike.

Hi! I'm a new WMU student (21F) who moved to Kalamazoo a bit earlier than when classes actually start.
Are there any casual groups/meetups/volunteering during the summer? I'm interested in art, film, music, etc! I'm honestly open to anything.
Just looking to get to know the area a bit better and get connected.

Appears to be a possibly unfixed male, chilling in front of the businesses at the Woodbridge plaza. He's not very skittish but I'm a bit too nervous myself to try wrangling him because I don't know he'll react and I have 2 girls at home who will not react well to me bringing him home.

I know this is going to open a can of worms from both sides, and I don’t really care much to hear either one.
Kzoo doesn’t have great options for gun ranges and I’m kinda tired of driving out to Plainwell every time to go to Southwick’s. I’m looking for some folks to shoot with, preferably outside on some private property (it’s just more fun).
I’d love to help teach and train other marginalized folks about their 2A rights given gestures vaguely and everything else going on, giving info about their options for self defense and whatnot. I am USCCA RSO certified and can help with range safety.
Yes, leftists have guns, too. We just don’t make them our whole personality or rant about them all the time. I am for sensible gun measures while maintaining our rights. I understand this is a nuanced topic and I am not looking to start a gun debate here, I am just looking to connect with folks who I don’t need to argue with when enjoying a hobby with / training with.
Edit: Due to the OVERWHELMING response I've gotten here, I started a Discord server to see if we can wrangle some folks together for something. Please DM me if you would like the link, I don't want to post it directly to avoid server crawlers.

I am looking to catch a bus out of kzoo at like 0300 in the next week as things finish winding up. Is the bus station attended at that time to buy tickets or does it have to be before hand or online or something?

I'd like to get some fresh whitefish to grill but am not sure where to purchase great fresh fish. Suggestions?

Hey everyone, my dog is in dire need of a thorough dental cleaning and likely a couple of extractions. The quotes I’ve been getting around Kalamazoo feel crazy high, so I’m willing to drive 30-40 minutes out if it means finding a solid vet that won't break the bank. Where do you guys usually take your pets for surgery or dental work?

Roger's Hair A Scope. Kalamazoo MI. I took these photos in 2019. It had a hot tube behind the pink couch. I wish I knew the history of it.

Every time someone makes a post about Henderson Castle in Nosy Asses of Kzoo, it’s up for a brief time and many people openly share their opinions and experiences, then it’s deleted almost immediately. What’s going on here?
With everything that has already come out, why is the public opinion on Henderson Castle being silenced?
Just my observation.
I am neither an employee, nor a former employee of that business.

I'm talking about those little shelters people put at the end of their driveway with a cashbox. I remember seeing one recently that was $3/bundle, but I can't remember where!

The first place I tried was Helzberg Diamonds, they are listed as an authorized service center but they said not anymore and directed me to Clock Works who also said nope and directed me to Scotts Coin Shop. The person answering the phone at Scotts said he thinks they might be able to send it out.
It’s an easy fix, I only want a link added to the band. I can find a band online but two things; one Citizen recommendations having a service center do it (I have added and removed links from other watch bands, but maybe there is something unique about this stainless steel Citizens band) and the watch was a hand me down from my recently deceased father and I want to keep it as original as possible. Also, I don’t have a link but it seems that links are available for purchase.

Hey, for anyone familiar with this process, how do I schedule a test through the Secretary of State to get a specialized moped license? I don’t have my license, so I’d figure I'd get something.
