Athens-Clarke County currently has the highest increase in voter turnout of any county in the state, compared to the 2022 midterm elections. The margin is substantial: 37% in ACC, while the next highest is 18% in Gwinnett and Cherokee.

Posting on Reddit since this might have a wider reach than the Facebook cat page but if anyone has seen one of my colony cats on E. Broad St. please let me know. She’s been missing for over a week now and it’s very unusual behavior from her. Her name is scraps and she’s skittish but cuddly on rare occasions. If you’ve seen her at all, let me know.

I'm a 42 year old, newly single woman who is new to the area. Shortly after committing to move the proverbial shit hit the fan with my marriage.

ANYWAY

I'm looking for any women/moms who'd like to connect :)

I'm fairly tame but would love to meet for coffee, check out fun lunch spots, find a walking buddy, attend trivia, have a wine night....

Hopefully you get the gist!

If this sounds like something you too would be interested in--let's connect!!

UGA Hockey will be wearing the Halloween jerseys Thursday 10/29 vs Florida @ Akins Ford Arena.
Jerseys will be auctioned after the game according to their social media post.

Belt replacement, lubrication, etc. thank you!

Does anyone know what, if anything, is happening to my beloved goose field on Lexington Hwy (between the shed place and the abandoned bail bond place)? I hear heavy machinery from my apartment and I am worried.

Hi all! My girl got out today (10/25) around 5:30 PM. We live near Eaglewood Ct and Sleepy Creek Dr. She is very sweet but also nervous when outside or away from her friends. She is all grey/silver with a tiny white star on her chest. Relatively petite but a little chunky. Please contact 706-430-8783 if you see her!! Her name is Trash—don’t judge me there’s lore there. Just want her back home ASAP 🩷

so, the past few months have not been kind to me, mentally or physically. it started as 2 weeks without brushing my hair, and then a lack of energy to fix the small matts, then an indifference to what happened with the hair, then an acceptance of shaving my hair all off, with a new back track to wanting to keep my hair since i’m starting to get back on an uptick mentally.

so, if anyone had any experience with this, or knows of any shops who would treat me well with this (that hopefully won’t break the bank, but i know it will cost a good bit since it’s so much effort on the stylists part), please let me know. i have made 5 separate attempts at fixing it myself, and i just can’t, or i could but it’s so difficult and i don’t have the time to because i have a newborn to care for now.

any help is appreciated. thank you.

i share a wall with an airbnb and with the 3 months i’ve lived here i haven’t had a single good neighbor. nothing but loud noises and banging. the house is zoned as a single family residence and i know for a fact the owners don’t stay here at all. is there anything i can do, i genuinely don’t care how much of an asshole it makes me i’m just tired of this neighbor roulette.

This minion seen things

Hi! I’m wondering if anyone is interested in joining a junk journaling/ scrapbook club in the area? Maybe we could meet up once a month at the library or a brewery? DM me!

is there a place that can embroider a name tag? I gave up
on my last halloween costume and my backup is naomi from Waiting sooo

Stopped by today and the cashier told me they were closing down. Whole store is 30% off and I believe they close on Nov 1st (?) check it out if you can!

The band is called Magoo, I feel like there is a distinct lack of bluegrass that comes to Athens.

These guys are up and coming and I think the show is going to be pretty good. Come check them out!

Free event! Pretty neat and vendors have cute stuff.

Ya’ll see this? A porch collapsed on a DoorDash / Uber Eats driver in Athens. Press release says they fell approximately 20 feet. Photos and info from the Athens Clarke County Fire Department Press Release this morning. From what I’ve read he seems to be okay.

My laptop’s lovely little battery issue has finally (borderline) bricked it. Battery claims to be at 0% despite being fully charged and keeps hibernating even when plugged in, so pretty much unusable rn. This issue’s been happening for a while, but I haven’t had the time to get it looked at since I’m a full time student. I usually would take it to uBreak but I know they take longer to get things looked at. Anyone got a shop, or just any recommendations in general of where to take it?

Saw a black cat with a fluffy tail running around the Redland apartment complex, it didn’t look like it had a collar on and I haven’t seen it before, wanted to post here in case anyone is missing their cat

***EDIT I saw it again this morning in the light it may actually be more brown colored

Hey everyone- a loved one in the area is newly having to use a walker and needs a bag that attaches to it to help carry her basics. She really likes to support local makers and basically refuses any mass produced stuff, so for now is just awkwardly carrying her normal purse along with the walker. I'm worried she will fall.

I was wondering if anyone knows someone locally who makes (or can make) something like that. I remember a man that had a lot of hand-sown stuff at some of the makers markers, but don't know his business name. Thanks!

So this morning my bf passed by what seemed to be some police presence and an ambulance over at Cookout. His gut feeling was something terrible and we just got confirmation from the clerk at the gas station across the street that there was indeed a body found in the dumpster! There hasn’t been any sort of official statement from accpd so im hopeful that the person is on a path to recovery! Please be safe out here yall!
