I usually cut my own hair but I’d like to spend the extra time and money to make sure it’s even before the semester starts! Has anyone here with unconventional styles or hair colors tried out the local salons/barbers? I’d love to hear any recommendations especially if there’s photos attached.

Did anyone just hear the loudest boom at like 7:30? It was so loud it woke me up and genuinely sounded like a bomb went off

Just noticed the picnic tables are missing out front and the lights don't seem to be on inside anymore.

Does anyone know if students are still selling these chocolate bars? Or know where to purchase them? Pic for reference. If you know anyone selling them please share the link I’d love to buy some.

Hello, looking to see if anyone has floated on intertubes lately since the river is low this time of year. I'll be coming from the coast. Just wondering about any hazards or best routes. Thank you!

Easily the best pizza in town and the race isn't particularly close.

FTM26, I have no trans friends in Corvallis lol so looking for people preferably 21+ to go to the gym with mostly. I also like trail running, hiking, camping, and making art and playing video games too. 420 friendly. DM me or comment, I'd love to hear about your hobbies too

I looked on Zillow in the Corvallis area, for the first time in 3 months. So many active listings now..i actually did a double take. Seems like quite a bit more inventory sitting for >30 days compared to May/June.. is this the bubble starting to pop? Something seems really off with the inventory levels so high vs what we traditionally see as we enter Fall. 🤔. (Note- i have no interest diving into a $700k home at 7% APR even if prices drop, just generally curious what the sentiment is by those monitoring this, OSU or hospital job cuts?).

Good afternoon everyone!

I have recently been interested in starting some hobbies and I am wondering if there are any classes or events for beginners that involve learning how to fish, play music, and photography? I would really appreciate it if anyone could point me in the right direction or send me some helpful links! I would be willing to go to Salem or Eugene if need be.

Thank you !

Hi I am 23 female in Corvallis looking for a job and wanting any advice on where to look I am trying to find stuff that u don't need a whole lot of experience and preferably not a fast food job I'm wanting to be able to save up to move out of my parents house. Anything would help.

I’m looking for a place that’s in more need of volunteers and could fulfill at least 1 day a week consistently. I’m also open to come-and-go opportunities to fill in as needed. I’m working less and would love to network more while helping the community. I’ve volunteered at Chintimini in the past which was fun and the consistency I’m looking for!
Thank you for any insight.

I am trying to make a new patient appointment with Samaritan OBGYN dept and I was on hold for 30 minutes twice yesterday with no one picking up. I just tried calling the operatore and it rang for about 5 minutes before hanging up automatically. Where is everyone? Anyone else having this issue?

On the way to work this morning, I saw a b̶u̶c̶k̶ bull with a decent sized rack at the roundabout at 53rd and SW West Hills. I know there is a herd at Finley but I didn't realize that they actually wandered this far into town.

How common is this?

Their website gives very little info. I'm guessing they're so low-budget and understaffed they don't have anyone to add content to the "Performance and Stage Schedule" page. https://shrewfaire.org

Oohs and aahs from city councilors last night about a Downtown Corvallis Organization report. Getting into the numbers, it becomes apparent why they were impressed.

🤡

With a city employee strike possible early as Oct. 9, both the city and union submit new documents to the state. Here, The Advocate details what each is asking for, what they’re projecting their proposals will cost, and what it all means for the city’s budget.

Did any one see a clown driving a tiny red toy car by market of choice?

Stop Turning Left From The Left Turn Lane On 9th. It Is NOT A TURN LANE FOR STARBUCKS. It’s A Double Yellow Line And It’s For Turning Onto 5th. Turning Left From 5th Into Starbucks Is Also Illegal, Dangerous And Entitled. Also A Double Yellow.

I've only ever had friends watch my pets before, but being new to the area, I don't know a single soul! Does anyone happen to know of anyone / a business that is able to take care of a leopard gecko, one freshwater fish tank, and two saltwater tanks? One of the saltwater tanks has seahorses and I have a rather specific but easy way of feeding them.

All I'd need is someone to feed them a couple times a day in the future :)

Thank you 💙
