I’ve been getting 3-4 flyers a week from Crank, even though I no longer live in The Springs. We moved in July and cancelled our voter registrations mid-July, but he keeps sending them, regardless.

The flyers aren’t being forwarded, either. These are actually addressed to our house.

Politics Anschutz-Owned Broadmoor Pushed Gazette Voter Guide on Employees

81 Upvotes

The email from the manager to the employees quoted in the article is so paternalistic and smarmy. Basically telling their employees that the ballot measures are too complicated for them to understand so they should follow the Anschutz owned voting guide.

"The voting guide is from the Gazette’s notoriously conservative editorial board, which includes Anschutz’s son, Christian. The guide recommends voting “yes” on all eight of the initiatives backed by Advance Colorado, the conservative dark money group backed by Anschutz. The guide recommends a “no” vote for the majority of the tax measures, including Amendment 87, the progressive income tax, which has been opposed by much of Colorado’s wealthy elite, including ostensibly Democratic Governor Jared Polis. The guide also opposes Proposition NN, which would use TABOR refund money for public school funding, and Proposition 137, which would use TABOR money for conservation, and Ballot Issue 7A, passenger rail."

Events Free Show: A Midsummer Night's Dream

44 Upvotes

Enter the Dream. 

Athens, Ohio. 2012. Summer is hot, the music is loud, and just beyond this Appalachian town, the festival is already getting wild. 

In this seductive adaptation of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Shakespeare’s classic comedy collides with the electric, anything-goes culture of 2000s contemporary music festivals. Producers hold the power. Contracts control careers. And Hermia, a rising singer, refuses to let anyone own her voice – or her future. 

Out beyond the lights, the festival becomes something stranger: intoxicating, chaotic, euphoric. Music pulses through the night. Desire takes over. Boundaries blur. The rules of the everyday world begin to dissolve. 

But these woods have their own history. The land remembers. The cryptids and fae that roam these ancient forests are not just magical creatures – they are stewards and witnesses. And every beautiful dream has a price.

Help Wanted Studying for learner permit

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m 21 and I’m currently studying for the Learner Permit. However, the DMV website only seems to provide a 36-page PDF Driver Handbook and the information there doesn’t seem to be very comprehensive and completely.

So, my question:
- Does any of us have any experience with a DMV permit test learning app and could recommend me one with good price and good practices?
- Do you recommend me to go to driving school to learn for the permit test?
- How do people usually studying for the permit test?

Thanks in advance!

Advice Baseboard heat vs space heaters

6 Upvotes

I’m a renter in an older (early 1900s) ~900 sq ft house. I’m planning to cover the windows with that plastic wrap that you blow dry to seal, and will be using rope caulk for any other cracks in doorways/floorboards. The home has baseboard heaters, which I turned on for the first time today; however, I haven’t been able to get the house above 64 degrees even with the baseboard heater temp set at its max (90 degrees). The baseboards are located throughout the house, primarily on the east side. There is only one thermostat so I don’t have control over which baseboards I turn on - it’s all or nothing. It’s been running for several hours now. I’m a little worried about having an enormous electric bill when it gets colder, just to have the house barely comfortable…would space heaters throughout the house be more efficient/better bang for my buck?

What are they trying to build right next door?

Buc-ee’s has officially filed its site development plan with El Paso County for a new travel center at Interstate 25 and County Line Road near Monument. [1]

Current Project Status

  • Site Plan Submission: El Paso County accepted the official site development plan (file PPR2628) on October 12, 2026. [1]
  • Proposed Facility Details: The plans feature a 74,000-square-foot store, two fuel canopies, about 810 parking spaces, and new traffic signals at both I-25 ramps on a 30.8-acre parcel. [1]
  • Timeline: Construction is tentatively planned to run from spring 2027 to fall 2028. [1]
  • Zoning Decision & Lawsuits: The El Paso County Board of County Commissioners voted 4–1 in August 2026 to allow the project under a "similar use" pathway in the C-1 commercial zoning district. However, the project continues to face local pushback and a lawsuit from opponents challenging the county's zoning ruling, alongside a formal objection letter from the Monument Town Council. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
  • Approval Process: County staff will evaluate and decide on the site plan without a public hearing. [1]

Curious what's out there if anyone's tried to do it. Preferably the cheapest option of self-injected nasal administration. I tried Around the block and it was $150 a visit plus $60-70 a refill and 1 visit lasted for 2 refills so not the best.. I have ptsd and haven't taken the nasal
Injections in probably 14 months now but it helped and I'm realizing now how much it did.
