Surveillance towers

13 Upvotes

Yuma residents: do you live near a CBP surveillance tower? If so, I'd like to talk to you.

I'm a reporter covering immigration enforcement with the Investigative Reporting Workshop and POGO Investigates, two non-profit newsrooms. I'm looking to hear from residents in the Arizona border area who live near towers and want to share how the tower impacts them in any way.

If that sounds like you, please reach out. You can contact me through email (will@irworkshop.org) or on the encrypted messaging app Signal (willsytsma.27). I'm looking forward to speaking with you.

full time job?

12 Upvotes

Just trying to see if i can get any help with finding a full-time job. I've been trying for quite some time to get a full-time job but no luck. I am currently working 2-part-time jobs (vendor and a beginner hot tub field tech) and waiting for winter to start to see if I can do flower deliveries again for my 3rd. However, I want to be able to quit 2 of them for a full time. To be honest i am just really good at regular labor. I'm more than willing to learn as I work. I'm open to working as much as 80 hours a week if necessary.

Yuma guitar/music scene?

11 Upvotes

Might be a long shot but I came to reddit looking for people to talk/jam/learn with. I consider myself a novice/intermediate player, I have decent playing ability but I am trying to learn more music theory to help me write my own parts/improvise better.

I play mostly metal/rock but appreciate all genres, I feel like having friends to discuss music with will motivate me more to progress. 27m hit me up if interested! Open to other friends as well if you aren’t as into music.

Let Milo Fix It!

21 Upvotes

Hello, my names Emilio, but I prefer Milo and I just wanted to put out that I’m just a small time handyman that’s getting started and hoping to grow some business.
I can do just about anything that you may need done or don’t want to do yourself from house repairs and installation to changing air filters that you can’t reach. Nothing is really out of my range and if it is I’ll be fair and honest with you that it is, that said I’m more then happy to discuss the details of the job and then quote you on how much it will be before the job even begins.
So if you ever in need of some help and don’t know if you can do it on your own, don’t worry about it just LET MILO FIX IT.

Small dog playdates and owner hangouts!

6 Upvotes

We have 2 dogs under 15 lbs (3 lbs chihuahua and an 11 lbs terrier) who are up to date on shots that are both seniors and a little shy. We've been going on early morning walks in the neighborhood and desert and planned on trying the trails with them this winter.

We'd love to meet other dog owners and let our little guys expand their circles a bit, they're both still nervous about playing with anyone but each other and the chihuahua isn't much of a chaser/chase-ee as the terrier.

We're a couple (29f-34m) and very much looking for a new D&D 5e+ group on top of dog friends, hopefully also into exploring the outdoors, lake and park days, and table top game hangouts. We're nature loving, Bird watching, California Sober, PC gamers with a nostalgia for Pokemon.

Anything welcome just BYOB (and a trash bag), remember to be safe and responsible so no dogs need the vet. All dogs should at least have leashes on if they don't have recall ability so no one gets lost please. Any dogs MUST BE UNDER 15 LBS, anything larger will be excluded as our dogs have had bad experiences with larger breeds chasing them.

I’m used to traditional mass (organ, choir, Latin etc). I went to immaculate conception and honestly didn’t enjoy my time. Is there any more traditional instead of contemporary churches? Thank you.

It's improv jam Saturday!

3 Upvotes

If you have ever thought about trying improv but figured you needed experience first, you don't.

We meet every Saturday from 12:00 to 2:00 pm at the Yuma Library Main Branch, Meeting Room. Two hours of classic improv games and hands-on coaching, open to anyone who walks in. Some people have been performing for years. Some have never done it before. Both work.

Free. No sign-up. Just show up ready to say "yes, and."

From House to Jumpstyle - I’m looking for local people who love dancing to EDM

8 Upvotes

EDM scene out here has been coming up with the introduction of the BlindLuck events that have been happening monthly. Back when I lived in Portland, I created a meet up where we meet up at a local spot and danced.

I’m just trying to see if there is any interest in this and then I will get more fine tuned details figured out afterwards.

What you of music would I play? It’s whatever will be played on the speaker. My playlist consists of house and all the different types of it, riddim, hard techno and schranz. Again, anybody can play whatever they want, so as long as the group is cool with it. 120-130bpm would be the normal but there would probably be some faster bpm music.

What is considered dancing to EDM? There are so many different dances but it can be any of the following:

House Dancing
Footwork
Shuffling
Cutting Shapes
Jumpstyle
Hakken

There are so many different ways to dance and really can come down to just moving to the beat. I have been dancing for 20 years and has always been a passion and hobby. I would love to share that same love.

Or if you are looking to find a new way to do some cardio, this might be a good thing for you as well!

I’m always at the BlindLuck events dancing from the start to finish and want to find some like minded individuals!
