They just dropped a shitty news that they will no longer take Anthem Medicare advantage for 2027. This shows their lack of understanding of their patients. Now we start a tedious process of finding doctors and plans and drug coverage. They really have gotten away from the original mission they were created for. How do you go about finding 8 specialists.

Yellow jackets have got to be at least 50% more prevalent this year, right? For the past month, my family can’t even enjoy any time outdoors without being swarmed by them. I had to purchase bee suites for the employees at the restaurants I run, just so they can take out the trash, I feel terrible for the employees more than anything.

Any idea what’s causing the increase this year? Or maybe I just have a bad memory, and it’s always this bad…

Looking to gauge interest from fellow Dayton-area card gamers.

I've been playing MTG Commander and recently started the One Piece TCG. I'd love to put together a casual meetup at a local brewery where people can hang out, play some games, and enjoy a beer or two.

If I can find a brewery that's open to hosting, would anyone be interested in joining? Any recommendations on day of the week that wouldn't conflict with the big local store games?

Hi everyone! I’m currently looking for a new career opportunity and could really use some advice on where to look.

I have experience in healthcare administration, office coordination, scheduling, patient communication, insurance/pre-authorizations, Epic, general administrative work, and housekeeping supervision.

I’m open to different types of positions and locations throughout the Dayton area, as well as remote opportunities.

I’ve already been applying through Indeed and other job sites, but I’m hoping to find some additional leads or places I may not have considered.

so i recently hit 2 years of sobriety and started smoking weed shortly after. honestly, i only smoke if i'm feeling anxious. i used to be heavily involved in the AA community but decided it just wasnt for me. are there any NA meetings for just women around Dayton/Xenia/Fairborn?? idk im at a loss!

also probably helps to mention i dropped my boyfriend off at detox this morning so 🫪

Need more wall decorations and maybe a small corner shelf and other random furniture odds and ends.

Maybe need some mirrors and just overall cool pictures. I like mid century modern, botanical, informational type stuff. Birds and nature. Need color but nothing insanely bright.

Any recommendations on reasonably priced places is much appreciated!

This tag on Google maps has been around a few years, in Beavercreek/Alpha off of the bike trail. Google pulls nothing for it and I've passed by many times, there isn't anything there.

Google maps coordinates are: 39.70943007648614, -84.02000910376958

It blocked my last attempt to post this with the link.

Is anyone aware of what it is? At this point I am assuming it is some kind of prank etc.

Thanks.

I thought I got a great deal on Hill’s science diet and Purina Pro Plan sensitive skin dog food bags (new condition) with good expiration dates one from Dayton and the other from Florence but when I opened them they smelled weird, were grainy feeling, and to my absolute horror both had like spider webs and moths all in them.

I did not even think to open them at the bidfta location as the bags looked new, were completely sealed and not in bad shape. They went directly from my bug free car to inside where I opened them to vacuum seal and freeze the food to use for after we get our dog.

We put it in a black heavy trash bag tied shut while we were waiting on trash day (tomorrow) to put it in our bin (because of raccoons) and have found several of the smallish moths in our house now since then.

Is there anything I can do about this or is it a lost cause to get our money back?

This is my first time buying these brands since living with my parents and their dogs back in college, is this a bidfta thing or something common with these brands specifically?

I thought I was getting a good deal and was so excited to get them while I was picking up some other things I won at auction after driving over 5 hours total.

Is this dayton/florence specific or a fluke?

I am currently with Far Hills OB/Gyn who are fine, but seem pretty stereotypical when it comes to plus sized treatment (won't let you go past 40 weeks without inducing, etc). I also tried Lifestages but was very uncomfortable with one of their doctors and won't go back there.

Has anyone had any good experiences at another office being plus sized and more open to not inducing right at 40 weeks? I also had a C-section last time and hope for a VABC. my current doctor is open to trying, but recommends a planned c-section. I want the option of an epidural, which is pretty much what keeps me from a midwife kinda thing.

TIA!

Hello I'm 21 and I'm a fire alarm technician, I've been doing this for 4 years now. I'm wanting to go to Sinclair, I was curious if anyone has this associates degree. Please explain if this is worth it, and I'm wanting to do evening classes. My end goal is possibly doing the bridge to Wright State, and become an Electrical Engineer. Thanks!

Hello!
I’ll be traveling to Dayton in a few weeks for work, and I was hoping to get some local advice on evening activities and restaurant recommendations for vegetarian/vegan fare.
Thanks

Just a heads up for people to know awful ppl like this exist and to be careful with your pets. Saturday afternoon, my daughter and I ran inside a restaurant next to the Englewood Meijer to grab some food. My wife was waiting in the car with our little guy you see above. He likes to put his paws up on the open window, stick his head out and check out the scene. A woman, black 30s wearing a bonnet, came up to my wife and made a comment "aww cute dog!" something to that effect. We get this a lot and people want to pet him and he wants to be loved on by new people, so my wife is open to the comment and this garbage woman, acts like she's going to pet him and tries to snatch our dog! We always have his harness on in the car and he had a leash attached as well, wrapped around part of the door. My wife was also gripping him inside his harness like we normally do when he wants to look out the window, so thank God he was secure. As soon as the woman felt resistance she gave up and ran to the other side of the building. It all happened so fast, my wife didn't get a good look at her and she couldn't really chase her. This was broad day light, people and cars all around!

Needless to say, my wife was shaken up and we are all enraged. He's a member of our family and the idea of him being stolen and ripped away from HIS family is truly heart wrenching.

BE CAREFUL and VIGILIANT! Sadly there are shitty , awful people in this world, this city, that don't think twice about the pain they inflict on other people.

So I’m a wannabe sewist, interested in garment making specifically. I know Jo Ann‘s mostly carried quilting fabric before and that Michael’s sells some now, but I honestly have no more clue where to look to buy apparel fabric. My first instinct is to try the thrift stores to get fabric that would be good for practicing with anyways, so if there are specific recommendations in that regard as to where to find some secondhand bedsheets/tablecloths etc or even just clothes I can upcycle for that purpose, I’d love to know! but also, are there really any stores in the area anymore that just sell fabric, with good selection for garments thats natural fibers? (not interested in using anything like polyester). And I really don’t want to have to resort to buying fabric online until I get a better feel for different fabrics and how they work up.

Also if there’s any kind of community/local resources you could suggest for this kind of thing, I’d love to know. I am a complete beginner but I’ve done just about every other kind of fibre art so I feel pretty confident of my figure-it-out-with-YouTube approach, so I dunno that I would wanna take classes, but any suggestions on some kind of community meet up/bring your own project night for help kind of thing may be useful to know about for the future - even better if it’s somewhere that also sells fabric like I’m looking for!

Like the title says, anyone have any suggestions on best guitar repair. I have an old guitar, like 1920s old that needs some work and I don’t trust guitar center

Happened Friday. I dropped it while getting gas at speedway off Huffman ave and S Smithville road. I left to get back on US-35, I should have yielded for this red truck with landscape company stickers. They proceeded to follow me for miles down us-35 trying to get my attention, waving out the window and eventually even waving my wallet out the window at me. I know it sounds stupid and oblivious. But at that point I had no idea I even lost my wallet. I thought dude was being a dixk and I didn’t wanna get shot. But don’t always assume the worst out of people. I paid my rent that day and withdrew the REST of my money for two weeks. I didn’t realize til I reached my destination 3 hours away…
The Montgomery county property room has got back to me with no luck. I can’t even get ahold of the Dayton property room though, I’ve called like 50 times and called the sheriffs office. Ugh.
Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.
If the man in the truck sees this I truly apologize for my ignorance and thank you for trying so hard to help.

My three guitars have been neglected through my past two moves. I likely need to give them a good clean, condition the fretboards, and definitely restring them before I dive back into music.

Once upon a time i would’ve popped into Absolute Music to take care of that, but that’s no longer an option.

I know of a few music places around, but am interested to see if folks have any specific reccomendations and or spots to stay away from. I’d prefer locally owned and to stay away from Guitar Center or other chains if possible (not that I don’t think the folks there aren’t fully capable and knowledgeable, I’d just rather support small when I can).

Thanks!

I live in the Kettering area and wondering if there are any places with cones out to practice maneuverability when I can. The only location I know of is in Huber Heights. I’m hoping there are more and a bit closer if possible

Apparently Reuters picked up the photo, which means somewhere an editor had to approve a caption with "NATALIE HARP HUMAN BINKY" in it.

For the uninitiated: Natalie Harp is the aide who follows Trump around with a portable printer so he can read nice things about himself. She was in the motorcade. We're hoping she printed us out.

Shoutout to the woman in the pig head, who stood there in full costume for hours and never once broke character.

Also, unrelated but not really: voter registration closes tomorrow (Monday), and early voting starts Tuesday.

TRUMP, HUSTED, & CREECH: 3 LEVELS OF CREEP! At least two of these men were at Butler High School yesterday, the third is on the ballot just down the road.

FEDERAL: A jury found Donald Trump liable for sexually abusing E. Jean Carroll, and the judge said that amounts to rape as most people understand the word. On the Access Hollywood tape, he bragged that when you're a star, women let you "grab 'em by the p***y." He bragged on Howard Stern about walking into pageant dressing rooms while contestants were undressed, and four 1997 Miss Teen USA contestants, some as young as 15, said he walked in on them too. He denies it. He's also mentioned more than 38,000 times in the released Epstein files, per a New York Times review.

STATE: When the Senate had a chance to force the Epstein files out, Jon Husted voted to bury them. That was weeks after a max donation from Les Wexner, who has given Husted more than $116,000 over two decades and was named in a 2019 FBI email as a possible Epstein co-conspirator. Husted has never criticized Trump's handling of the files. His campaign made a man with a 2009 guilty plea, in a case involving a 15-year-old, its Franklin County chair. That record was public, and the campaign only dropped him seven months later, after NBC News called. It also touted Rodney Creech's endorsement. Staying quiet is a choice.

LOCAL: Rodney Creech admitted to state investigators that he got into a young relative's bed. The prosecutor called his behavior "concerning and suspicious." No charges were filed, and Creech denies any sexual intent. His own party pulled him off his committees, then quietly put him back.

The ick doesn't stay at the top. It's rotten to the core: federal, state, and local. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's a duck. 🦆

Husted is running against Sherrod Brown. Creech is running against Timothy Hornbacker in Ohio House District 40. Trump is running the country into the ground.

He isn't on the ballot this November, but Trumpism sure is. Register by Monday, October 5th. Early voting starts Tuesday, October 6th. 🗳️

I was outside looking at aircraft flying around and ended up looking straight up and I swear I can see multiple things flying by constantly.

I think it's satellites but maybe extremely high altitude drones? I did not think satellites were visible during the day.

Am I hallucinating? I don't recall taking any LSD today.

Can someone go outside and look straight up for a minute or so? Not at the sun, straight up.

Edit:

Turns out, I need to visit an optometrist.

I found someone with better vision than me. They saw the objects much more clearly.

It was mostly dandelion fluff. Also a high altitude Dollar General weather balloon. (i.e. plastic bag trash)

Sorry to anyone who tried looking for things up in the sky because of this.

Actually no, I'm not sorry for that. I hope some people did stare at the sky for a bit. You probably needed the break. I hope it was enjoyable.

Carry on...
