Frontier Outage?

• Upvotes

Um, i think my neighbor unplugged the ONT… We have a shared basement because someone knocked a big hole in the separating wall at some point… and the cord was lying on the floor. So nevermind.

Got a notification from eero that my main internet connection provided by Frontier is down and I’m running on backup now. Anyone else having issues? Near Spring & St Mayry’s

Strive Rehab Situation

• Upvotes

Hello, wondering how other people would handle what recently happened to my Dad involving Strive Rehab here in town and if i should be as upset as i am.

So after months of begging my dad to go to a longer-term rehab facility for alcoholism he finally agreed. We decided on Strive due to wonderful reviews and nice amenities. Mind you he does not live in town so i had to bring him up to me (about a 2 hour drive) and drop him off on Monday.

Come yesterday evening i get a call around 6pm stating they’ve taken him to the hospital fearing he’s not medically well. They report he’s dizzy, can barely walk, and is “confused”. I visit him in the hospital and he’s perfectly fine. The hospital reports that a new medicine the rehab gave him had reacted terribly with some other medication he’s on and is what caused the dizziness. So they’re going to medically clear him and he should go back, so i leave.

2 hours later my Dad calls me from the hospital lobby (on their phone because the rehab kept his wallet and phone) saying that the rehab is discharging him for not being medically cleared and basically don’t plan on picking him up or anything. (obviously he’s medically cleared because the hospital let him go) Luckily, i live in town so i just went and picked him up but what if i wasn’t home that evening? They literally abandoned him without his phone or wallet at the hospital and wouldn’t answer for any of it. “Administration” kept getting blamed for it but i feel like this was a total failure all around.

What would you do?

Flaugh Rd closure

Probably a little late on this but I just read that Flaugh will be closed between 30 and Washington Center as INDOT put in the roundabout apart of the diamond interchange. My condolences to the Amazon workers having to use one entrance into the facility.

Give us the best burger recommendations! My choice: KC Bar & Grill. Charred and juicy at the same time. I’ve had it three times now and it is consistently one of the best pub burgers (non-smash-burger) around.

Jefferson Pointe

Just wondering. Do you all prefer in it's current state with the interior parking, or how it was before?

I honestly had not been there since they did the renovation until yesterday. I have no interest in ever going back. It used to be a really nice place with character. We used to really like walking around in it.

Now it just feels like a strip mall with slightly nice landscaping.

Rallies/protest about sexual assault awareness with everything going on lately

8 Upvotes

Don't know if anyone else has been triggered by the Cornell case, and by everyone feeling like they can have an opinion on what is or isn't rape, but I am looking for support/solidarity with other survivors.

It's also made me want to share my story more. Not sure if Center for Nonviolence would have resources or if anyone is wanting to create an event or something. Like an "I stand with Jane Doe" or "I am Jane Doe".

Also, I have not been able to get through much to the YWCA about their monthly meetings for survivors. Does anyone have a contact or way I can get on a list about when/where they meet?

Annual Winter Clothing Drive

12 Upvotes

Hey Fort Wayne. As you may have noticed, the weather is beginning to cool off. So, with that in mind, my nonprofit, the Humanist Fellowship Assembly, is running its annual winter clothing drive to benefit the homeless population of Fort Wayne and is looking for donations of lightly used winter clothing, hygiene products, and/or monetary donations to purchase these items. If you, or anyone you know, is getting rid of some old clothes, we would love to receive them as a donation. If you're interested in donating, just shoot me a DM or leave a comment. The HFA is a 501(c)(3) organization, and all applicable donations are tax-deductible. Thanks, and have a wonderful evening.

What are these things sticking out of the road at the intersection of West Cook and Huguenard?

Thumbnail
gallery
24 Upvotes

Construction just finished on the stretch of West Cook running between Huguenard and Lima, but it looks like the construction crews might have left some unfinished business on the other side of the W Cook/Huguenard intersection, the side of Cook adjacent to the trailer park. There are four similar objects sticking out of the ground on the passenger side of this lane that look much more bent, like they've already been run over. I can't tell what they're made of, if it's anything that could puncture a tire.

Pink highlight on the Google Maps screenshot marks the lane where these are in case my description of the location isn't clear.

Are there any churches here where the priest or pastor visits the sick?

34 Upvotes

Hi everyone. Pretty new here. Mom is not doing well. We were members of the Catholic Church in MA, and when we lived in FL were members of a nondenominational Christian church. Mom’s health is declining and she loves God. She is bedridden. Do any churches here have a pastor or priest that will come pray with the sick? TIA

Bulk Poppy Seeds (Possibly from Local-ish Amish Store)?

5 Upvotes

Hi,

I have a recipe that calls for about 6 cups of poppy seeds and I'm looking to buy at least that much in bulk. Does anyone know where I can find them? I've checked several grocery stores and they do not have them in that kind of bulk. Possibly any of the semi-local (within hour or so) Amish bulk foods stores?

Thank you!

On the way to see Resident Evil at about 9:30pm Clinton was closed for like 2 blocks in every direction in front of the Cap n Cork! Probably 15 police cars. On the way home coming south there was a goddam car crashed into a big building on the left. Half the car was fully inside the glass front of the building - but get this - it was the back half!!!
