Hi! I’m a local photographer (Modern Virago), and I’m building out my portfolio before the weather turns. I’m offering 3 free sessions:

🤰 One Maternity Session
💍 One Couples Session (engaged, just married, anniversary, etc!)
🖤 One Boudoir Session

What you get: a free session and a gallery of 25+ edited photos.

What I ask: that I can use and share the images, and that you leave a short review if you loved it!

Sessions will be outdoors, in the next 2 to 3 weeks, at a location close to wherever you are.

Apply here (a Google form): https://forms.gle/Tk6nfSuzZ9ASr8rt6

I’ll be choosing one applicant for each session type :)

Happy to answer questions in the comments!

I’m planning on going to this bc why not. Never gone before and have some questions. Main question is there alcohol being sold at the event or am I supposed to bring my own? Do they stop letting enter after a certain time? What is the vibe usually like? And did you have fun when you went?

Hey y’all, does anyone know where I could buy predatory nematodes for houseplant fungal gnats locally? Thanks!

old sky blue vw van seen speeding down LKWOOD. the car was swerving in and out of the bike lane and incoming traffic lane to pass up the four cars that driving were on the road.

I have a brake light out on my truck and would like to get it replaced quickly. Where can I go? Oil Stop told me they don’t provide that service. Help

I have a Dell Latitude 5420 that recently stopped working, and after moderate research and trouble shooting I'm pretty sure it's a hardware/motherboard related problem. I'm looking for a place (hopefully not super expensive) where I can pay to have my computer diagnosed and most likely also repaired. I'm aware of a few different places just from searching Google and other Reddit Posts, but would really like people's personal recommendations, like which place stands out and why? Thanks!

We recently got our residential solar system installed and functional. So, I'm now looking for folks to chat about actual details, operations, optimizations here in Humboldt under our practical conditions with the area, PG&E, & RCEA. I've asked my neighborhoods about their own solar installs, but most of them have no interest or only a vague idea about their own installs. So I thought I'd try here.

Our system is a roof-mounted (20 panels) grid-connected Sol-Ark 15k with Pytes batteries (32 kwh). We got PTO last month and everything seems to be working fine so far. I was able to export during the 6-8PM blocks during September and now have disabled battery exports until next fall. I have delusions of getting Home Assistant connected to the inverter, but I'm not very motivated into getting the hardware and software configurations setup. My specific interests are reducing the risks from the system and improving ROI.

From conversations with the installer, there are dozens of people similar setups every year, so I'd imagine the odds are pretty good at least some of them are on the subreddit. So, anyone out there interesting in sharing their observation and experiences?

When my last letter ran, my inbox and the Facebook threads filled up. Thank you. Why is the police department paid so much? Where does the money go? So… I went and dug. 

First, you should know where I started: my last letter argued against Measure D as written. Personally, I don’t think it’s a viable solution, only a temporary fix. This one isn’t a “vote yes” or “vote no” letter. I want you to have the facts. And we’ve been here before. In 2024, Measure P asked for the same 0.75% sales tax and lost, 42.5% to 57.5% (North Coast Journal). A poll done for the city this year found 46% in favor and 51% against, with a 7% margin of error (Lost Coast Outpost). Measure D is on the ballot, so here’s what you’re deciding. 

I’m looking to get a new piercing soon (specifically collarbone dermals) and I have no clue about where is a good place to go that’s reliable but not extremely overpriced (or underpriced, lol). What places have you guys had good experiences at?? This will be my first body piercing too!

Looking for other people in the area who are aspiring to be or already are working with video game development.
I just started working with Unreal Engine and would love to work together with some other like minded people. Maybe even start a project together.
Hit me up!

Let me know where you have found pumpkins for a great price. Small pumpkins are best. They are for event decor and not for eating so organic is not required.. Need before Saturday. Located in N McKinleyville but open to drive to pick up. Thank you.

What’s up with the PSPS power outage?

Seems like only California major cities from Sacramento through Redding are under PSPS for wind but it’s 3 mph yet.

i lost the one of these earrings over the weekend in old town eureka. i would love to get it back. 🙏

I can’t keep up! Best house cleaner with estimated rates pretty please. :)

Do ice vehicles have license plates that start with 1 like other governmental agencies?

Got stuck behind an out of state suv on the 299 today. They had a Georgia or Florida plate (hard to tell), driving a brand new and shiny suv with a license plate that starts with 1 and had no visible registration tag. They seemed unfamiliar with the 299. No markings, shiny black, couldn’t tell if they had lights on the inside or not.

If anyone has any extra and need to get rid of them please DM me
I would really appreciate it!
Thank you kindly

So I am hoping to try my hand at making some apple cider and was wondering if anybody knows where I might get a few cheap gallons of cider?

Is my best bet winco or are there any orchards up here that are worth a trip?

Drove over the train tracks this morning in Arcata along Samoa and this wrench lodged itself into the undercarriage of my car lol. I pulled it out and see it’s engraved with 7981. If you want it back… it’s yours (just please secure it better next time) 🙏 happy Wednesday Humboldt

Was looking for the sacred chair, but instead got these cool photos

Does anyone else who lives at woodridge apartments just not have hot water? This is the second time in a month we haven’t had hot water available. Last time it took them a week and a half to even acknowledge it and send someone to fix it. And I know it’s not just our apartments issue as I have a friend who lives upstairs in a separate unit that also is missing hot water. Just curious if anyone else has experienced this. We’ve been calling daily to barely any response.

Edit edit: we r on day 3 btw. This started on Monday and the only response we got is they sent a plumber yesterday.(10/13/26)

Shot this on October 12 at Clam Beach. The wind was whipping cold sand across the tidal flats right as the sun broke through into gold.

A continuous 360° turn in the cold evening wind, with the raw sound of the shore (best with headphones). Hope you enjoy a quiet minute from our coast.

Hi everyone!

My fiance and I are having so much fun making our costumes this year.

Does anyone know whether there’s any costume contests happening anywhere this Halloween?

My brother is visiting mid-Nov, and I wanna take him fishing along the avenue since we’ll already be up there. I know NOTHING about fishing and I would only use the spot once (with my brother- I won’t even have a rod lol I’ll just be chillin) annnnnd we would never ever share your fishing spot, so please DM me if you have any good recs. we’re basically looking for somewhere pretty that might have a fish or two- I’m super familiar with the avenue but not at all familiar with fishing 🎣🎣🎣

☺️THANK YOU FOR HELPING A (literal) SISTER OUT
