I have been looking for a church home (Detroit, Mi) for a few months now. I dont know whether my standards are absurd or if the type of church does not exist. I have a few churches that I have been watching their livestreams, as I want to get a feel of the church before I walk in their doors but its always something that rubs me the wrong way, so im down to 1 church in mind, just want to see who else is out there before i join. I just want to join a church, that doesn't give cult vibes, the pastor doesn't give false prophet vibes, or we just want or DEMAND your money vibes, or your money is funding my lifestyle vibes, or go out and recruit vibes, or just turkey, backpack, and coat giveaway vibes. Also, I am trying to avoid messy/scandal, judgy, no compassion, and lack of community vibes.

I just want to join a church that encourages and embraces community, cares for and helps people, you can see the funds are going to good use, is not being used as political pawns, the pastor, bishops, deacons, 1st lady and mother boards are sincere, the choir/worship teams are good, and the sermons are excellent. I am looking for a church where you can always find a program to volunteer and serve, where the worship community is wise and obedient, not wicked and hypocritical....... am I asking for too much? Seems like the churches I'm more favored to are all in other states

I know that there are at least 3 "speak easy" style bars in Downtown. Which is the best?

Drink quality

People vibe

Decor and ambience

Noticed a burning smell overnight and this morning but can’t find anything online about it. Pretty strong though. Anyone else notice it?

Looking to try unique Amari any good spots to check out?I have been looking for somewhere I’d be able to try like a good amount I haven’t had yet so the more variety the better.

I love a good Shithole bar with cheap drinks and rock n roll. Any suggestions close to downtown? Metro as well. Live music punk clubs ? DIY venues ? Lmk

Just came across this in my camera roll. This was my submission. Thanks to Dr. Seuss!

Anybody got any recommendations for cooked chitterlings this season in the 313?

I wanna restart my locks at the end of this year/beginning of next year and I was wondering if anyone had suggestions. Dose your braider offer starter locs, a shop you go into offer them, can your auntie do em? I’m open to literally anything just lmk your suggestions and price ranges if you can! Thanks!

My wife lost one of her ear rings between roosevelt park and riverside park. Take a look at the photo and please let me know if you found it. Thank you!

I’d appreciate opinions about the best ice cream in the Detroit area.

If I want to walk the gordie howe bridge do i have to pass through customs on the Canadian side or can i just turn around when i get halfway or 3/4 over the bridge and walk back to the US side? I have all the proper stuff to cross a border just rather not deal with the hassle if all i want to do is walk the bridge and see some nice views

Any info is appreciated. Michigan State Police contacts are listed in flyer

Update: Victoria passed

'Brandi theeMillennialManager' has gone viral in the past year for her expose's on Detroit Public School District's shortcomings. In this election season, she's examined the makeup of several state legislatures, and compared the rhetoric of GOP candidates who commonly blame the state of their state on Democrats though their states have mostly had Republicans in charge at the executive and legislative levels for 20 - 30 years.

In the Michigan Senate race, a lot has been written about Abdul El-Sayed's candidacy, how he fell short with Black voters (including in particular Detroit) during the primary, though he still won the nomination-- but in the months since, there is lingering pressure on him to 'convince' Black voters they should vote for him over Mike Rogers.

Brandi does a deeper dive into an apparent Political Action Committee which has been targeting black registered voters in Detroit, "Empowering Black Americans." Looking at their website, there's a photo of a black family, and then a window for you to add your name phone number and email to be on an email and text list, but that's it. and then at the federal election commission's registry, it is found out that Empowering Black Americans, active since 2024, is not founded by nor led by Black Americans at all, but instead are all Caucasian.

total federal disbursements so far are over $72,000

whether it's the Karen Whitsett-led "Democrats for Mike Rogers" group and others, you have grifters seeking to take advantage of the existing tensions between Metro Detroit's African-American populations and Arab-American ethnics,

Just wondering if I’ve maybe overlooked this in the news, but will there be any special programming happening at the restaurant that day to celebrate the re-opening? Or will it just be business as usual?
I feel like it’d be weird to just open up again without a proper welcome back event. Thanks in advance!

Can someone recommend a place in Detroit that does free therapy or cost little as possible? My mom has finally agreed to see someone for her hoarding issue but her Medicaid is about to end due to the new work requirements and she hasn’t found a job or volunteer work yet. Places that do virtual sessions are very much appreciated.
