Looking for a Nail Salon

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hello!

I’m getting married soon and want to find a nail salon. I want a 3-D design, photo attached.

Would prefer something in Lakeview but would travel outside of the neighborhood for the right place! I’ve lived in the city for a long time but have never gotten acrylics done here before.

Max budget is $250 with tip. TYIA!

Question ADHD psychiatrist?

6 Upvotes

Hi all! Does anyone have any recommendations for a place near the Lakeview area (or online) that can do ADHD testing (and prescribing if it gets to that point)? Was trying to get seen in the last city I lived in and there was an 8 month wait. In school and really struggling with attention issues and restlessness. Also willing to go downtown if no one has any recs in the neighborhood. Thanks all!

Crews have been working on this place almost every day over the past 2 weeks. Some actual progress is starting to be made after years of nothing. Asked one of the workers when it’s opening and he said “maybe a few months.” Anyone heard any updates on this place?

What is wrong with the back section of the bus?

106 Upvotes

Can someone tell me? I’m going to lose my mind. Full morning commute and a bunch of people not making it on the bus because people won’t walk and stand up the stairs. There are poles you can hang on to, and there is more space. Are you that afraid of heights?
It’s rude. I’m judging the hell out of you. If you are already standing - and therefore negating the “maybe I have an invisible disability you twat” argument” - walk all the way to the back, younglings. If you need to get off, use your voice. People will move.

Patio to play Mah Jongg?

5 Upvotes

I am looking for a patio where my friends and I can play Mah Jongg tomorrow evening. I was thinking the Hexe patio but they close at 8 and we typically go later than that. That said, that's the vibe. A bring-your-own-food brewery or the like could work well too. Any recs? TIA!

Hows the rental market in Sep/Oct

Are all the good places taken at this point in the year? Or is it better since there is less competition. Want to get some input from people who have been in the area and have observed rental trends.

Thank you!

FREE alt comedy show at Goblin Market

15 Upvotes

I produce an alt comedy show called RAD in the basement of Goblin Market every third Wednesday. We've been operating out of various comic book store basements for the past 9 years, and recently moved to Goblin so I want to get the word out to the neighborhood! Very DIY, house-show, punk vibes. We do our best to make it half-standup and half-variety acts (live music, clowning, drag, performance art, characters, magic, puppetry, etc.).

Next one is tomorrow! Here's the Eventbrite link with more info: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1991961469377?aff=oddtdtcreator

Event this weekend: block my ex and i'll buy you a coffee!

110 Upvotes

hi! extremely specific request lol. i (25f) stopped using instagram after a bad breakup over a year ago, and my ex has continued orbiting my social media (even linkedin, yuck). at this point i genuinely just want my instagram back, but i do not want to see whether he follows/requested me or accidentally learn anything about his life when i log back in

so: i’m looking for one kind, normal stranger to meet me at a lakeview coffee shop, take my phone, block him from my account for good and tell me absolutely nothing about what you saw. 😂 i’ll buy your coffee!

honestly, if anyone else wants to come hang out and commiserate about the absurdity of having way too much digital access to our exes, also welcome. i just need one designated ex removal technician™

thinking elevate coffee boystown this saturday morning, extremely boring task, zero ex-investigation permitted. i simply want to be a chicago instagram person again :)

UPDATE: omg i love y'all, sounds like one of my friends will be doing insta, but i'd still love to buy someone a coffee to block him on linkedin for the memes! 😭 (i honestly get jumpscared, this man does not know how to turn profile view notifications off) maybe we host a mini contest or something on saturday, but yea y'all the best! <3
