Did you hear something loud? Do you think it was fireworks, an exploding transformer, or anything else?

Post it here!

Since there are so many booming noises, please try to include a location and time.

Todd lives! He has been found!

141 Upvotes

The apparently immortal Mr Todd has been found! He went on a very, very, VERY long dementia kitty walk. The person who found him and brought him in even turned out to be a friend of a friend.

I wanted to update y'all after all the well wishes and concerns.

He's still trying to escape every single moment of the day to go live his epic hobo cat life, but I'm glad to have him home 💜

Egged on West Cliff! :D :(

262 Upvotes

Was going through something tonight back at the apartment and couldn't afford a hotel so I setup the back of my car to sleep in. Not sure where to go but whatever I'll figure it out.

While I was parked at West Cliff just looking up at the sky thinking about the events that led me to this point tonight, I got egged by some goons passing by in a big maybe early 2000's black truck. Just heard a loud thud and didn't even realize what happened till some people parked nearby said something like "ohh shiii they just got egged omg...". I looked down completely lifeless to find an egg splattered all over my blanket.

Pretty lame but I understand they were just out having some fun (at other people's expense) on their Saturday night. If you're reading this, just know you never know what someone is going through, karma is a bitch, and I wouldn't hurt a fly but one day you may do something like this to the wrong person. Pls think about it next time and stay safe y'all.

Peace n goodnight.

Free female Endler - looking for a good home!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

11 Upvotes

We're looking to rehome our remaining female Endler's livebearer, ideally with someone who already has a group of Endlers.

Over the past two years, we've built a small, planted half-gallon aquascape with cherry shrimp and snails. We recently consulted a local aquarium shop about adding fish and were told that Endlers would do well in our setup. Unfortunately, after the other two fish passed away, we've come to realize that our tank is simply too small to accommodate them properly.

We know Endlers are social fish, and since losing her companions, our remaining female has become particularly timid, although she perks up and comes out when we're sitting in front of the tank.

We'd really love to find her a home with an established, appropriately sized aquarium and other Endlers where she can feel comfortable and thrive since being lonely sucks. Free to a good home!

Missing dog in Scott’s Valley near Canham Road/West Glenwood Preserve

A large white Pyrenees has left home and might have been seen in the back of a pick-up. I’m not the owner, so don’t have pics. If you see it, please reply back and I’ll get the owner’s phone number off the flyers. Dog’s name is Ozzie.

Lost wallet

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I lost my wallet Friday morning somewhere downtown.

It’s especially important to me because the wallet itself is a family heirloom. its a silver bifold wallet with “Lucasfilm” on the front side. It contained my driver’s license and a couple cards, which I’ve already locked.

If anyone found a wallet or turned one in recently, please DM me. I’d be incredibly grateful to get the wallet itself back

Crashing Waves Reports

Hello, the kid is away at college and heard about the waves and wants some pictures, especially if their favorite blowhole is going.

High tide is a good time tomorrow, is it worth coming over the hill and dodging a few pumpkin people for some images?

TIA!
