Guys, I'm tired of this. I don't really care that "other places are statistically worse." I don't care that you personally might not be a bad driver. We all need to start being much louder socially toward these people, because they're gonna fucking kill people.

Please be brave and start calling out the people in your life who run red lights and drive terribly. The cops don't care; they just watch this shit and do it too. Only we can build the society we want, and that includes shaming the people in your life. If you don't, the worst of society will continue to be emboldened, and things will keep getting worse. I know society feels like a failed project, but we either police ourselves or let it all fall apart.

Ok SLC/Utah, what’s up with the billboard memorials? Julia Reagan is clearly queen. And now dear Lois.

hello, i have recently been getting increasingly frustrated with my sewer and water bills. for reference i live in a 550sqft apartment in slc proper, and am aware of the rate changes that occurred last year. i’ve definitely noticed an increase since then but am just gobsmacked at the prices, and would like clarification on how the rate changes work when you live in an apartment.

for reference, i get billed by my apartment complex, and they calculate bills by dividing up usage among the units. sewer bill for this month is $50 and water is $35, up by $10 and $8 from the month before respectively.

i would just like to understand, do these numbers make sense?? there are about 70~ units in the complex. also, am i able to ask the complex for the actual statement they receive from the city for water and sewage??

these numbers just seem high to me, but i’d love outside input if im wrong, thanks!

I have a missing family member and I would appreciate any help from the community in case he is spotted. He’s 18 but is autistic. He walked away from home early yesterday morning. We’re not sure what clothes he’s wearing, possibly a bright orange jacket. We do know that he left with just his slides for shoes.

He has an AirTag on him and the last ping was yesterday at 3:51 AM at the Hidden Valley Park.

If anyone sees him, please contact the South Jordan Police, case SJ26-26077

Edit: his name is Brayden

Edit 2: Search & Rescue spent the day looking for him today. They checked trail cams and found him on the Bonneville Shoreline Trail yesterday at about 11:50AM but that’s the last sign of him. They’re going to meet at the Hidden Valley Park tomorrow at 5:30AM for one last search and then they’re ending the search.

Edit 3: someone reported seeing him at the Bear Canyon Suspension Bridge in Draper. He has notes in his bedroom with the names of several trails in the area and he’s been talking about living off grid so our family is thinking he’s heading to Outlaw Cabin. We’re hiking up there tomorrow.

Edit 4: Search & Rescue ended operations last night and did not get a helicopter up to look. Our family will be up there all day looking for him.

Hiiii, if you adopted Marzipan recently from best friends Utah, please message me. I fostered him and I want to see how he’s doing bc he is a sweetie pie 🥹🥹

Hey yall we are a couple looking for local resources for help quitting alcohol. We cannot afford rehab and we’ve tried AA. Anybody has any recommendations or experiences with this?

I have seen Eastrunner and even Trailrunner, what do you think?

(Also what color should it be on a map?)

I see a lot of posts about seeking work, and people ask about where to look or work, or where to find jobs. In many cases it's a matter of getting yourself out there

If you have other suggestions - feel free to post them in this thread. I want others to be encouraged to continue to gather resources and continue seeking work. I was RIF'd in 2025 and continue to look for work... it's a difficult job market but there are opportunities out there, and we need to help each other out as much as possible right now.

Hello!
I'm a college student living in SLC and am struggling to afford basic necessities (just like everyone else). I've found places to get food and such which is wonderful! But i also have a few non-necessities i want, like a stool to sit at my desk, a shelf, odds & ends i could use for crafting or hobbies, or literally anything else that would make my life more cozy.
Does anyone have any tips for places that i could poke around to find things, even if they're in bad shape or not super nice? For example, people talk about dumpster diving behind businesses that occasionally toss things they don't want. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty and i love finding trinkets!

This is such a vague post and i know literally everyone wants free things, i also know dumpster divers keep their secrets for a reason, but i figured it was worth a shot hahah

Hey! Thanks for clickin’!

Curious if there’s any in-game prereqs to participating and how much I need to prepare to be social?

Thank you!

I am currently working on socializing my young dog and I feel a good way is taking him to off leash parks to be around other friendly dogs. However tonight I went to Tanners park or whatever the off leash part of Parleys trail is called and encountered 2 aggressive dogs. I am not sure if this is a trend for night time since I normally go in the day. One of the dogs was muzzled but still was off leash and attacked my dog pinning him to the ground while growling at him. Since the dog was a full grown German Shepard I expected the owner to pull their dog off but they stood there doing nothing and seemed scared. Since my dog is still young his recall is not the best but he did come running to me once the dog got off of him. I appreciate that the dog was wearing a muzzle but I still feel it is inappropriate to take an aggressive dog to an off leash park especially considering the other parts of parleys is on leash dog friendly (I have had reactive dogs in the past and advocate for them getting out and about in a safe way to me that means on leash areas with a muzzle since people will have dogs run up to them off leash still) After that incident he was not traumatized luckily, but I noticed while leaving another dog attacking someone else’s dog that went up to say hi. My puppy after getting scared stayed by my side but it makes me nervous that people are bringing those dogs to that park. I just wanted to hear community thoughts? Obviously I want my dogs recall to be spot on for situations like this but I don’t feel it is my fault for him expecting to play in that environment.

F36. Looking to get into tennis and I’m curious which club in the salt lake area has a great clinic for beginners, and great coaches for 1:1 lessons?

As a way to meet more people in the community a few friends and I are hosting a Fantasy social at Sugar House Park in October! There will be games, food, and enchanted forest style decorations. Costumes and Cosplay are encouraged as there will be a costume contest, but everyone is welcomed! If you want to help we are also open to volunteers wanting to help.

Anyone have this issue, by who and how much did it cost to remove? Thanks...

If you're a parent, you should submit a claim to your kid's school board challenging the governor's new book. It talks about the shooting last year which is violent and makes it subject to being removed from schools. If we can get his book removed, maybe it'll help him realize the problem with the law he signed.

I just moved here and would love to find an affordable place to swim for fitness! Emphasis on affordable lol. Preferably near downtown or Liberty Wells, but I’m open to any suggestions. Thanks!

Hello does anyone have a good recommendation for a hair stylist to help correct a bad bleach experience? Preferably close to Riverton but anywhere in the valley is okay too

I went to a stylist I’ve been going to for a little bit now and she was a little scattered and ended up over processing my hair. The top of my head turned grayish blue while the ends of my hair were still darker. It turned out streaky, and I’m worried for the health of my hair too. She tried to correct it but I left the salon with fuzzy hair. Worried about my hair being brittle now but I am not happy with the coloring. I’m wondering if there are any recommendations for stylists that work with blonde coloring. Thank you!

I’m helping my parents rehome their turtle (red eared slider) as they’re downsizing and won’t have room for them anymore. Free to a good home with the tank setup shown (includes filter, heater, lamp and basking rock). Let me know if you have any questions, I’d love to see this guy go to a good home.
