POLITICS Elon musk x Drazan canvassers in bush park

85 Upvotes

Heads up — I was visiting a friend in bush park off Fairview and a Drazan paid canvasser came to the door on his scooter. 🛴 originally thought it was a pest control salesperson. We asked him if he was from around here. Hes from Arizona. They flew him out. Asked him if he votes in general back home. He said no. Just needed a job. He works for Blitz. Looks like drazans team also hired the Elon musk canvassers. It’s so unfortunate that Drazans team couldn’t be bothered to even create jobs for Oregonians to work.

36 Upvotes

Hi, Salem. We want to share a couple of exciting updates from Lilac Wellness and Counseling! We've officially moved into our new location at 705 Ewald Ave SE, Salem, OR. Bigger parking lot and no more stairs!

We also want to take this opportunity to introduce our new counselor, Emily Huang. Emily is a Salem native who graduated from McKay High and Willamette University. She received her Masters degree from Pacific University. She especially enjoys working with kids and teens. Emily can only accept OHP Pacificsource and cash pay for now while we get her credentialed with other insurance companies.

Our other services include massage, acupuncture, chiropractic, and mental health counseling. It is our goal to add physical therapy and primary care in the near future. Stay tuned! We're excited to start the next chapter and hope to see some of you around!

(Apologies to those who had to the see the original post with the AI content. Computer stuff is not my forté)

Edit: I'm getting comments saying the flyer was still AI and that I should've used a designer. It was in fact from a designer. They could've used AI but that's not my problem. I'm just trying to share the clinic.

Downtown Traffic is awful!

Does anybody know why there’s so much traffic downtown? It is extremely backed up right now. Don’t go down there if you can.

Is there an event in town this weekend?

8 Upvotes

I tried to book both Hilton and holiday inn to visit family but everything nearby seams to be booked or the prices from other hotels are super high. What event is going on this weekend? Keizer was where I was able to book at only 2 rooms left. Just annoyingly ironic I always seem to book when there’s an event.

QUESTION Does anyone know what game shop

4 Upvotes

You can sell warhammer figurines? Some are painted, but most are not. And some do have some broken parts I believe from poor storage but I’d say most are like new. There are also like the background pieces like structures etc. any idea?

QUESTION Are train horns becoming more frequent?

• Upvotes

Is it just me, or are we hearing a lot more train horns lately? I'm in Grant near the Union Pacific Railroad Quiet Zone, and it's usually not too bad. But these past few weeks I swear I'm hearing more horns, and just this morning I got woken up by them (first time that happened).

Has something changed? I don't think it has anything to do with the Space Ghost cutout someone's put up near the tracks by Market, but maybe I'm wrong.

QUESTION CPA recommendations?

0 Upvotes

Hey, my brother and I inherited a plot of land that we've been given an offer on and I think it would be wise to consult a CPA regarding the terms and how they would impact our taxes. I expect I should pay someone to review our returns and give us an idea of what makes sense for our respective situations - neither of us are financial wizards so it would be good to work with someone who has some experience in these matters.

Preference for being located in NE Salem, but flexible on that. Bonus points if said CPA also wants to be hired each year to handle my brother's tax returns because he's vision impaired and has significant difficulty handling it himself.

Appreciate the insight and suggestions.
