Edit: Wow! Thank you everyone for such kind words! I genuinely was not expecting that. And thank you everyone who gave insight & suggestions for the Tree Top Rush. You all definitely made me feel more confident.

Has anyone of larger size, specifically larger butts and thighs done this? I’m concerned about the harness fitting. I have been on a weigh loss journey for almost 2 years and have finally crossed the 200lbs lost mark. I started at 475lbs and am now at 265lbs. To celebrate my accomplishment so far I wanted to do something I’ve always dreamed of and that’s doing the tree rush ropes course & zip line at Fontenelle. I am finally under the weight limit but I’m concerned about the harness fitting my rear & thighs. For reference I’m a size large on top and a size 18/20 in my lower half. I want to do it so much but i know if I get there and it doesn’t fit I will feel like such a failure. I provided some picture for reference. Thanks everyone!

Jodi Osborne, the owner of an exotic animal breeding business called Critter Close-Ups went on Live with Rolling Gavel to promote the selling of a kangaroo and kinkajou. Jodi has been in the news and social media a lot lately with animal abuse allegations. There are videos online of her grabbing an exotic caracal cat by the neck for chewing on her shoes, taking a baby animal from the mom and it screaming while she says she is selling it and having a dog at her grooming business whose eye fell out. The videos can be found on Reddit and YouTube.

From previous comments online she is friends with a woman online called Tracie Perry aka Tracie Jones (see photo comment below of Facebook post of Tracie talking about Jodi). Tracie has a long arrest record for fraud of selling monkeys. She is also on TikTok famous for a video where a man tries to get back his monkeys from her and she threatens to shoot him. This goes down a long rabbit hole if you're bored today.

I’m behind on my rent and I’m really needing help. I had a job offer lined up but they rescinded the offer so right now I’m scrambling to find a job. I’ve been applying to multiple jobs everyday, and I’ve had interviews but nobody is getting back to me. Even if it’s something simple as lawn mowing or house keeping I’ll do it. If anyone has any resources for rental assistance or jobs hiring PLEASE let me know.

Betty Rae's Ice Cream is opening a new location at the old Cold Stone Creamery location.

I volunteer in the building and it’s owned by a church and have noticed its sloping quite a bit on one corner. And the wall is away from the floor and cracks throughout the building, I afraid the building could be over a sink hole that is forming. Shelving outside of building is sinking into the ground .Should I be concerned??

My vets office is a life saver for me and is willing to help me administer a medication to my cat, which Im unable to do myself. Its until the end of next week and I really want to do something to show my appreciation. I could bring donuts, but want something a little more. Anyone have any suggestions? Or things that people have received in the past that they appreciated

I have been at my current address for about 5 years. About 6 months ago I got someone else’s new car registration in the mail. Had my address on it, just their name. So it’s not like it was the wrong address. Now for the last couple months I’ve been getting all kinds of traffic and toll violations in the mail for this person. I have done “return to sender, wrong address” on everything I’ve gotten for them but still getting multiple things.

I just called the Douglas County Treasurer office and they said there’s nothing they can do because they don’t require proof of address when registering a car. Is that true? It’s been a while since I initially registered mine (not just renewed online), so don’t remember exactly what was needed but I could’ve sworn you needed proof of address. Does it seem crazy that they won’t do anything?

I went to Micheal’s recently to grab a few things and there was a group of 3 guys coming up to everyone with bins of candy asking for people to buy them to raise money for charity. I declined partially because I didn’t have cash and am not comfortable sending virtual payments to random people on a whim but also because I’d gone to another store down the block from Micheals a few months ago and was approached by someone else selling candy to raise money in a similar way and something felt iffy about it.

Am I overthinking feeling apprehensive or have other people been approached by people like this and that feeling was correct?

Hi all.

I moved to Omaha in 2023 and started renting an apartment owned and managed by Greenslate Management. I wouldnt say things were amazing, but they fixed things as they came up, I even got a discount at Powerlife just for living there. They also hosted events which was cool.

I think it was late 2025 or early 2026, they got absorbed by Asset Living out of nowhere. It’s been nothing but issues since. They took 3 months to fix my front door, that was broken and I was genuinely worried about my safety, among other things.

I have now found water damage and black mold in my bathroom and am waiting on a response from them. This explains so much btw, I have been super sick on and off for months and I was going crazy trying to figure out why I was so sick all of the sudden. The work order was submitted on Monday, and they haven’t even acknowledged it.

Any advice?

Unfortunately my lease doesn’t end until 2028 - They sneakily extended it without me noticing when I complained about unexplained “community fees” in my rent ledger earlier this year. After complaining 3 months in a row about sneaky fees that weren’t on my lease, they sent me a new one which apparently had a different lease end date. I didn’t even notice. Which is my bad, I get that.

I am considering sending a 14/30 day notice since it’s almost Friday and I haven’t heard anything. According to tenant laws, they have 14 days to fix the mold or I can legally terminate my lease due to unsafe conditions. Legal aid website helped me draft a 14/30 day letter but I’m scared to lose my housing as my credit is not great.

If anything I urge you all to AVOID Asset Living.

With the chilly weekend ahead we went to turn on the boiler in an old Victorian we are working on and one of the old cast iron radiators sprung a leak. They are original to the house and I would rather find someone to repair it rather than replace it. Does anyone know who in town I can call? It has been a long evening and I appreciate this sub and everyone so much!

I'm looking for 2 golfers on Saturday to play at Oak Hills. It would be $100 to play. The weather should be awesome and anyone would be able to play even non-members. Basic golf dress code and some golfing skills are required. Feel free to message me or reply here to claim the spots.

Edit: One spot has been claimed. One opening remains.

Preferably Bellevue TIA!!

Looking for recommendations of someone who specializes in hanging wallpaper.

Does anyone know of any primary care physical that will actually listen to me? I had a baby this year unexpectedly which landed me hospitalized for over a month. I had preeclampsia which caused super high blood pressure (I was taking ten pills a day for blood pressure when I first got out of the hospital in July) . I’m seeing a cardiology because of a complication with the pregnancy that seems to have continued afterwards. I’ve been seeing a doctor who I’ve called my primary but he doesn’t really listen to me. I would like to find a doctor who actually listen ?

I'm moving my small business to Omaha to be closer to family, I'll be there end of this month and would like to vote. Also if you need garage door repair stuff hit me up in a couple weeks.

Looking for a roofing company to repair the flashing around my chimney that is leaking to the attic. The flashing was previously re-sealed in the last year (not by a company) and the issue has returned with this recent rain, so wanting a professional to take a look this time. Already tried contacting C&S but they appear to be fully booked.

I've gone through the post history and didn't see anything that addressed this specific topic. I have a historical home, oldest in my neighborhood built in 1881. I'm looking for personal recommendations for a plumber who would be able to camera/scope my main drain to the street to anticipate any problems.

Currently, nothing is wrong, but it would be nice to know how many feet of cast iron, ceramic, or pvc I have, and what I could anticipate.

Ideally looking for a small business with integrity. I don't want some large company who is going to try and scare me into thousands of dollars of repairs I don't need.

I’m looking for recommendations for a physical therapist in the Omaha area who has experience with complex hip issues. I’d like someone who is experienced with manual therapy as it has helped me greatly in the past. I’m willing to pay out of pocket if needed.

I’ve been getting quotes to have my panel upgraded and to also have power to my garage for an EV charger. The problem is that I’m getting very inconsistent information on what’s needed to do the upgrade and bring my house up to code.

Does anyone have a recommendation for an electrician that could speak to all what is needed plus making it up to code?
