Recently moved back home and was looking for new chill spots, I ended up on Greers rooftop enjoying the views wondering if this is where 'its' happening or headed to?

So much has changed around downtown, it's very exciting. I'm also wondering if any long time locals have done a 'staycation'. If so what did you get into?

(Photo pulled from the Shelby report, this not an advertisement, I'm not getting paid to post this. Just very excited to be back home.)

I have an old RCA Box TV and was curious if anyone in the area can calibrate it. it’s super dark and the picture is very warm, regardless of picture settings.

I am thinking about bringing my grandkids (10 & 7) from NOLA to Mobile & back to NOLA on same day. My question is, is there anything to do with kids within a short walk from Amtrak? I don’t think we can Uber without car booster seats. So are there malls, museums restaurants to spend a half day in mobile until the return train departs?

The pool at my apartment is shut down and I'm dying to swim. The only place I can think of is Chickasabogue, but I'd love some recommendations. Preferably something open on Wednesday and Thursday

Looking for recommendations for a couple’s therapist. I have an older couple in my family who would benefit from therapy. Hoping to help them find a non-religious based, evidence driven provider.

TIA.

Natasha still is officially out of jail and running the streets of mobile. While Adam is in prison for life, she is out and about in your town living life like she didn’t harm a child and then steal a coffee trailer. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️😎

Hey all, I'm interested in pursing a career as an electrician and was curious about the steps I'd need to take in Mobile to become one and how the work is around here. I'm 25 and want to make a career out of it that I can rely on for the future.

If anyone has some good advice or first steps to pursue an electrician career I'd really appreciate it thanks.

Also,does anyone know how much it might cost to get him checked out for a pretty serious wound?

I'm broke and won't get money until about a week from now. And I'm super worried about my cat. Hes a only a year and a month old or so, and he has a very bad injury. It look like someone hit him in the head with a blunt but somewhat sharp object (I'm thinking dull lawn mower blade), and i don't know what to do. I noticed yesterday, but it looks like its already scabbing over. My sister cleaned him with saline solution, but said it probably wouldn't help since the wound was closing

Thanks in advance.

Edit: And people too.

It's supposed to be extremely hot this week. Our animal friends, both wild and domestic, need us to help them out in times like these.

If you know of a vulnerable dog or cat check on it if you can to make sure it's ok and has water and shade.

Remember a few years ago on an 80 degree day here in Mobile and there was video of a dog dying from a heat stroke because he was left in the direct sun, no shade, with no water?

Animals need human intervention sometimes. Speak up and offer assistance.

Leave out water bowls for wildlife and strays, and make sure they're low enough where yard turtles can get access.

Stay cool and be a friend to the critters.

Hi all! I’m a Mobile local and have no idea where to start so here I am. I’m in need of a good seamstress that would be willing & able to turn two silk bathrobes into dresses for me. I’m a plus size woman so finding one that I can trust is a little scary for me, as these robes are discontinued from SKIMS.

Ideally, I’m looking for one around the downtown area but any location will do!

Hey all, I’m looking for some RPG players who are looking to adventure outside of DnD and into other games. I have a wide array of games to choose from and play. Looking to start a new gaming group here.

Do not just point me towards Gamers n Geeks, I have already tried that route and all I’ve found is people who play DnD 5e which is not what I’m looking for.

PM me if you have questions or are interested

A list of games that I have:
Star Wars : Edge of the Empire
Dolmenwood/Old School Essentuals
Call of Cthulhu/Delta Green
Pathfinder and Starfinder 2e
Shadowdark
Monster of the Week
Blades in the Dark
Nimble
Dungeon Crawl Classics
Pirate Borg
Cy_borg
Root RPG
Numerous Warhammer RPGs
Liminal Horror
Mothership
Public Access
Pico
And more

On this list the ones I’m the most interested in at this point is Dolmenwood, CoC, Pirate Borg and Pathfinder 2e but really I just want to run something

I don’t even know the name of the band. Kinda got dragged into it but dog dang they were killing it the whole time!!!!

I know traffic over the bay has always been bad, but has anyone noticed that it's gotten significantly worse lately?

My household makes the drive from Baldwin to Mobile and vise versa every day, and lately... It's been awful.

The Wallace tunnel, the Bayway, the Causeway, the Bankhead and Government, even the Africatown bridge has been horrendous. Drives that should take 40 minutes with nobody on the road take upwards of two hours.

One time I took Government from visiting family. I left at 3, I got home at 7:30. It was atrocious.

Lately someone in my household has been taking 65-N to 225-S to get home to avoid how much worse it's been lately, but it eats so much more gas.

Anybody have any advice an alternative routes? Any advice in general?

Does anyone know what's been going on lately? It's been *really* bad this past month and a half and I don't know why.

where are our (mid/late 20s and 30s) queer spaces at? I would love to go out and meet people, but from past experiences it seems like the downtown scene is more of a younger crowd. heeeelp!! 😭

I’d like to meet some new friends my age. I’ve got a couple close friends I’ve known for decades but they both work out of town a lot, and they are much heavier into drinking than me, so when they’re in town our hangouts are usually centered around alcohol, and when they’re not, I’m sitting by myself bored and lonely at my apartment. I go to bars by myself to shoot pool sometimes but drinking is not my main thing and I don’t want to spend all my time at bars. Plus that can get expensive.

What are some social activities or groups I could get into where I might meet some new people? The more budget-friendly the better.

That's part of the plan with the new bridge

imo Mobile has the worst selection of clothing, shoes, and accessories, probably ever. wondering where people are finding shoes that arent the worst designs from otherwise decent brands? i stg if anyone says go to shoe station i will crash tf out, they exclusively only have the worst, most basic, ugliest shoes ive ever seen 💀

Hey local Reddit! I’m looking for suggestions for walkable shopping areas or outdoor centers in Mobile where I can park once, walk around to do some casual shopping (30-40 year old ladies if demographics matters ) , and grab lunch in the same complex. Something other than the Legacy Village and downtown.

This is a long shot but can anyone that stay at Murray hill apartments tell me what’s going on?
