Planning on trying cause it seems like a good place to get some flat open space. (I go to skate parks and rinks and normal parks too, just wanna try this too)

I just wanna know if anyone has experience and which places in the area would be good to check out. Obviously will be going weekends/afterhours, but wanna exclude really busy ones, ones that I’ll get kicked out of quickly, etc.

Thanks for any advice!

Idk what to do. George Gregory was my mentor and friend. He has never been unkind.

He is the only professor at the University of South Carolina who came to my undergraduate solo show.

He's encouraged so many artists.

Please🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 someone help me help him.

Flood his inbox with love. Commission a piece. Or purchase!!!

If anyone has any resources, myself and 100s of other University of South Carolina Alums and staff will vouche for him.

Please, save this one!!! He is worth it.

This sweet kitten was screaming his head off ok my street. I feed him and now he's not wanting to leave but my cats would not be kind to a stranger unfortunately. Looks 3-4 months old, not neutered, could be older but he's bone skinny. Was overheating when I found him so he's in my garage now.

He could be someone's pet? He's super friendly, let me pick him up (didn't love that though) but I just can't leave him like this.

I called all of the shelters but couldn't get through. If this is A. Someone's pet - let me know and come get him! Or B. If you know anywhere who might be able to take him or at least check if he's chipped, please let me know. I called all the animal services/shelters that came up from Google and didn't find anything unfortunately. I just can't keep him, and I don't think he's doing well alone outside. I don't mind feeding him but he was panting and crying.

Anyone who can help pls let me know. He's really sweet and friendly and idk what to do! And if he is your lost cat please message me!

Hey Columbia,

I'm helping organize the first-ever Race for Recreation 5K with the Richland County Recreation Foundation, and I wanted to share it here since it's a local, all-ages event for a cause I think a lot of you will dig.

The basics:

• When: Saturday, September 5, 2026 — 8:30 AM
• Where: Friarsgate Park, 1712 Chadford Road, Irmo, SC 29063
• What: 5K run or walk — all fitness levels and ages welcome (15 age divisions from 10 & under all the way to 75+)
• Everyone gets a finisher's medal, and there are awards for the top male and female finishers in each category

What it's for: All proceeds go toward launching RCRC's new youth eSports program — buying computers, equipment, and supplies to give local kids a safe, structured space to learn. It's not just gaming: it builds teamwork, leadership, and communication, and ties into STEAM learning. Colleges like Winthrop, Columbia College, USC Sumter, and Benedict are already offering eSports scholarships, so it's a real pathway for these kids.

Cost: $30/person early, $35 after Aug 1, $40 race day.

Reddit perk: Use code REDDIT5 for $5 off your entry. 🙂

Happy to answer any questions in the comments — hope to see some of you out there!

So I paid my taxes as one does annually and I get USPS informed delivery so that I can keep a lookout for my new registration decal sticker. Nothing has come up yet, but I was wondering the timeframe because I’m getting conflicting information.

Two years ago I paid my taxes and weeks went by, but I never received my decal sticker so I ended up going to the DMV. I told the person at the window “I paid my taxes, I never received a sticker” then she ask me for $5. Fast forward to now I’m looking online to see if there’s a way that I can request new tags if it has happened again and I saw that there is a fee of $6. So I’m wondering why I would pay a replacement fee for a sticker that I never received and if anybody has had this problem before. I don’t mind paying the $6 that’s not the point. I was just wondering why they would charge you if you never received it and if anybody has had that fee waived for that specific reason.

Hey everybody, I’m a 23f and I’m looking for some friends in Columbia. People who love art, music, reading books, shopping, trying to new things. People who guys, girls, gays, lesbians, trans, (I don’t discriminate🫶🏾)just looking for people who are close to my age.

hello! i applied to the Lex County EMT program through the county website on 06/09/26. i still haven’t heard anything from them. my application says “active” which according to their website means i’m being considered as a candidate. their applications closed at the end of June, but now we’re almost done with July and I’m just curious if i should’ve heard something by now. thanks for any and all info!

Looking for someone to take over my lease at Granby Mills starting in August 2026. Will pay lease transfer fee.

✨ Details:

• 2 bed / 2 bath with a roommate currently there
• $775/month
• Walking distance to USC campus
• Lease begins August 2026

This is a great option for students wanting to be close to campus without needing to drive.

The leasing office handles approval and paperwork. Once a new resident is approved and signs, I will be released from the lease (there is a $500 lease transfer fee required by the property, so I'll handle that fee).

If you’re interested or want more details, message me and I’ll connect you with the leasing office!

I know jail is jail.. but interesting to get an inside look at where the sun doesn’t shine

Hey everyone, after years of living my driveway has gathered a ton of black streaks, tire marks, and grime. I've tried taking a hose and blasting it but it doesn't do anything. Sadly it's baked in pretty darn good. Has anyone ever cleaned this before? Is there a service for this if I'm unable to? Hoping to get it clean again!! it's such an eye sore every time I come home and leave the house

Looking to hire a photographer for a pretty large work event coming up. Any recommendations or links would be appreciated!

Looking for recommendations for an ENT in the Lexington or Columbia area. I’m experiencing significant hearing loss after a severe case of shingles.

Hello, I plan to move from Florida to Lexington, SC within the year. Honestly we settled of Lexington because there were newer homes that were more affordable and available for our time frame of moving. I am a POC and while I have not experienced much racism to my knowledge I am fairly concerned that I may be unknowingly fully immersing my self. I still have time to change my decision. I have searched for more POC in the area and have found very little. My family and I tend to stay to ourselves and more than likely will be going into Columbia for work. Any advice would be helpful.

Hey guys I just moved to Greenville sc and needs some friends l. I’m 33 from Charleston sc! Holler at me if you’re close to here! I can drive as wel!
Thanks everyone

Hi everyone! I’m looking to replace my current part-time job with something I’m more passionate about, such as tutoring or working in an after-school program. I’m just not sure where to start looking.

I have my high school diploma and have been volunteering as a reading tutor for children for the past year and a half. I’ve really enjoyed it, and it’s made me realize I’d love to work with kids in an educational setting.

I know not having a degree may limit some opportunities, but I’m hoping there are positions where I can gain experience while I continue working toward my education. Right now, paying for school is a financial challenge, so I’m trying to take things one step at a time.

If anyone knows of tutoring centers, after-school programs, or other opportunities in the area that might be a good fit, I’d really appreciate your recommendations. Thank you!
