Topic: Labor Day Yard Sale!
From 9am to 3pm on September 7th, come check out a local yard sale on 45th! At 3248, diagonally from Madison Middle school, there’ll be an array of items from knick knacks to dress shirts. Cash, venmo, and card payments are accepted. Come before 12 to ‘place an order’ for a mini custom embroidered baggie to be picked up by 5 same day (WSB exclusive offer!) while supplies last. Look out for the white pickett fence, listen for the music, and help support a ‘starving artist’ this Labor day! :)
Societal mores and everyday respect have really taken a toll since the racist, misogynist, homophobic, rapist criminal has stolen our country.
I’m a senior woman who has been walking my dog in Seaview for the past 26 years, and I’m really tired of the uptick in daily micro-misogyny, mostly from middle-aged men. Today on a walk with my medium dog, I hear footsteps closing in behind me, turn, and a man running is right on top of me. He purposely bumps me as he passes, and gives me the finger, and yells “get out of the way”. I yell back, “go around”, and he says “on the grass?”. I’m dumbfounded.
Two other middle-aged men harass us at least once a week when we walk by their houses daily on our walks. One accused me of calling animal control and the police on him and physically blocks our way on the sidewalk (I didn’t, but clearly someone did – he’s on Rover and I caught him leaving one of his dogs in the car while he was across the street and far back into his garage). The dog was incredibly distraught, baking very loudly. Now every time I see this guy, which is often since it’s my neighborhood and he doesn’t have a real job, he has this shit eating grin on his face and belittles me around other people. And another man yelled at me because my dog scratched on the grass after having pooped (and, yes, of course I pick up the poop). First off, you don’t own the parking strip, and secondly, get a f—ing life. He’s always yelling out, “hello, hello, you there with the dog, can i talk to you”, while I’m just trying to walk by and ignore him. Why are you outside every day when we walk by and why are you harassing a senior citizen minding her own business?
They really don’t like it when we speak up and have agency, a voice. Rest in peace Gloria Steinem. I really feel sorry for the younger woman of today. I know a lot has changed for the better, but in some ways, a lot has gotten way worse.
I live in Highpoint. All summer long, I hear fire/smoke alarms going for hours. Today I walked around the neighborhood and couldn’t pinpoint it. Nobody else seems to notice, including, apparently, the people who live inside of or next to the offending house. But the sound comes right into my window. I have to run a fan to block the sound.
I guess I’m the only one who doesn’t enjoy constant beeping.Topic: Cafe osita

Hi everyone,
I recently noticed a few cracks in the concrete around my home. At first, they were pretty small, so I didn’t think much of them. But over the last few months, one of the cracks seems to have become wider, and now I’m starting to wonder whether it could turn into a bigger problem.
I’m not sure if this is normal concrete cracking due to age and weather or something that needs professional repair. Has anyone dealt with a similar issue?
