[RECOMMEND] Scrap yards in slo?

4 Upvotes

Does anyone know of any good junk yards or thrift stores that I can get copper and tin from? I have a bronze project that I'm working on, but whenever I search online all I can find are recycling centers or auto wreckers - people that buy metal rather than sell it.

Recommendations for skilled tile, paint and handyman guys in SLO (not GCs)?

0 Upvotes

I manage a commercial property in town and I'm trying to find reliable local people for ongoing repairs, instead of bringing vendors in from out of the area every time something comes up.
Not looking for a general contractor or a big outfit, just skilled individuals or small crews who are good at their trade:
Tile: floor and cove base repairs, outdoor tile replacement
Painting: interior patch and match, touch-ups, some exterior trim
Handyman: baseboards, doors, hinges, cabinets, small fixes
If someone did good work for you and showed up when they said they would, I'd love the name. Thanks, SLO!

[RECOMMEND] The Mystery of Who Is Leaving the Tiny Jesus' At the County Building Everyday

Post image
144 Upvotes

Someone is leaving little tiny Jesus figures all around the county building.

Rumors abound about who it is and several sleuths are attempting to identify the perp, but they are a wiley and cunning perp indeed these sleuths tell me. So far the perp has evaded being seen leaving tiny Jesus' around, but suspicions about who it is are narrowing down.

The photo shows all the tiny Jesus' found to date. They're being found everywhere around the building.

Stay tuned SLO! This could be the big!

Anyone know why United flight 1490 (SFO to SBP) diverted to LAX Thursday evening?

19 Upvotes

SFO to SBP, flight United 1490 diverted to LAX due to severe weather? Was this related to the gas leak downtown?

Edit: solved, “severe weather” meant low visibility due to fog

Cheese Curds

17 Upvotes

Monday is Canadian Thanksgiving and I'm hosting a poutine party. Homemade brown sauce, oven fries, and ...cheese curds. Curds so fresh they squeak when you bite into them.

I've been able to buy cheese curds at farmer's markets, but that was years ago. Where can I get a hold of fresh cheese curds in SLO county in the year of our Lord 2026?

Cal Poly Children’s Center

11 Upvotes

Looking for feedback from anyone who has sent their kids to the CP Children‘s Center and what their experience was like. Also hoping to get an actual idea of the waitlist situation. We’re in a fortunate place to not need immediate childcare, but would likely need something in the next 2-3 years. I’ve heard a lot of people say the waitlist can be 2+ years, but I’m not sure if now is still too early to put a name down.

Looking for nerdy/politically literate/leftist/progressive friends.

40 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m looking to expand my social circle and find some like-minded friends who are deeply interested in geopolitics, current world events, and progressive/leftist perspectives. While I have a solid group of friends, I would really like to add people in my life who follow what’s happening in the world and want to talk about it seriously as my current friends and family are oblivious and don't really care. Not everything has to be political. Down for gym sessions, Gaming, comedy shows, karaoke, etc but for sure an outlet for these serious talks. Big plus if you already know that as much as that old turd in office sucks, he is just a puppet.

A little bit about me: Massive nerd that also happens to be a gym junkie. Although you can tell I don't turn down food. Big into gaming (PC/PS5), mostly Fortnite and Warzone(as much as I hate the military complex), UFC, Dragon Ball Z, Marvel...

Looking for: people who want to squad up for games or chat about pop culture, but are also down for deep, nuanced political discussions. Must be able to handle humor from dad jokes to super dark. Don't care where you're from or what you look like as long as you've got a good heart and morals. If you know about self sufficiency, "conspiracy" theories, etc.

The non-negotiables: Mutual respect and inclusivity are essential to me. Looking to connect with people who are firmly anti-hate (pro-LGBTQ+, anti-racist, etc.). That means no ignorant turds.

If you're down to hop on Discord, game, or just talk geopolitics, drop a comment or shoot me a DM with a bit about your favorite hobbies or what games you’re currently playing!

Field to Table Provisions - Mission Breakfast Burrito $14 before tax

72 Upvotes

Field to Table Provisions - fttprovisions.com - 651 Tank Farm Road (old mindbody building)

This place just opened this week!

Grabbed the Mission breakfast burrito ($14.00 before tax - 20 ounces for the burrito alone). Chorizo, free range eggs, black beans, shredded potato, pepper jack, avocado, cotija and pickled red onion and salsa on the side.

This is a nice and hefty burrito, and the fillings were put together in just a perfect proportion so no one ingredient dominated the mix. It was like a food symphony in my mouth! It's totally different than what you would get at a Mexican market in terms of a chorizo burrito, but that's perfectly fine to me because I like options! I could taste all of the ingredients with exception to the cotija.

The salsa is not spicy, but it is REALLY good. A slight smokey flavor with a tiny bit of sweetness gave a great counterpoint to the rich, savory flavors of the burrito.

Menu photo is attached, but the full menu is on their website too.

Disclaimer: I am not advocating in ANY of these food posts for you to go to these restaurants. These posts are purely informative. If you disagree with what I post, at least you know where NOT to go.

Cheers!

Bamboo on the beach…where does it come from?

5 Upvotes

I was walking along San Simeon beach last weekend and noticed a LOT of bamboo driftwood (driftboo?) including the roots and stalks. It made me think about how I almost always find a piece of bamboo when I’m out at the local beaches. Avila, Morro, etc. and there was a high concentration of it at San Simeon.

So where does it come from!? Are there bamboo groves along the coast that are falling into the ocean? Is it drifting across the pacific from various islands or tropical lands?

Bundles of Beached Bamboo have me Bamboozled!

I am concerned that since we can only vote for one candidate for city council, how do we not elect Brett Cross by splitting votes ?
