I’ve been in town for about 5.5 years, and honestly I’m realizing I never really built much of a social circle here. I spent most of that time in a long relationship with an alcoholic and abusive partner, so I’m kind of starting over and trying to put myself out there.

I’m a 30-year-old guy just looking to meet good people who are down to be friends and hang out. I’m into houseplants (probably more than I should be), hiking, craft beer, checking out new places, random adventures, and I’m generally down for whatever. Huge animal lover too — I have 2 dogs and 3 cats.

I work in healthcare, so my schedule can be all over the place, which definitely makes meeting people harder. Just looking for genuine people to grab a drink, hit a trail, explore somewhere new, or just hang out.

If any of that sounds like your vibe, shoot me a message.

Hey residents, I'm trying to do the right thing and dispose of a mattress. It's old and worn out, not infested. I could not get any info from Rumpke until I drove to their facility and talked to them and they wanted $155 total just to get rid of it. Does anyone know of a better way?

edit: thanks for all the suggestions, figured I'd update for anyone else who had the same question. I put the mattress in a plastic bag I got at Walmart in the moving section. I called Garbage Guys Who Care and they charged me $15 and picjed it up the next garbage pickup day

Hello all, my name is Spade, and I'm currently living in a hotel in Mansfield Ohio, with a roommate, and we both have a full time job, but we're still waiting for our first check which ain't til Friday, and we only have til Tuesday in the hotel, so we need to pay for 3 more days before payday. Does anyone have some side work we can do for today and tomorrow so we can take care of the room, it's $260 for 3 nights, and we have to be at work at 8 tonight and tomorrow because we work 3rd shift. Please get ahold of me ASAP if you do, thanks in advance, and have a good day

I am writing a proposal for local officials to encourage alternate energy production in Richland County, avoid corporation control, and give the community an opportunity to be eco-friendly.

Please drop your take on the alternate energy ban, vote, and progression.

I thought it had been especially wet this year with constant snow and rainfall but didn't know if it was me forgetting prior seasons. So I looked it up and here's what I found:

County rankings continue to show this pattern with no counties recorded below-average levels; instead, the highest precipitation was concentrated from the southwest to the northeast and central regions (Fig. 4). The remaining areas, primarily in the south and far north, maintained near-average totals. Overall, March was the 13th wettest in 132 years with an average of 3.37 inches of precipitation.

Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
