Awesome turnout today everyone! It was a blast! The people were respectful and the speakers were great. Lots of great signs, folks talking to each other about calling reps and organizing. We’re truly lucky to have this kind of community.

I do wish the speakers lined up at the end would’ve had more time though; they were throwing away their notes and saying they only had a minute or two to talk. They had some real grit and energy to give, but by the time they came up most people had already left. We should work on that at any future events.

Fighting the good fight! #Handsoff

Thank you all for showing up!!!

The dogs were my favorite but ...So good to see you all there

I've struggled for the last year to get medical care in the state. I had to go to Texas for a colonoscopy/polyp removal last year, as well as a gastric emptying study.

If I had waited around here in Albuquerque, it would have taken months to even get a PCP appointment to get the referral, and as long or longer to get the specialist appointment.

That's just for specialist care. There are still tests that I need, but my PCP here disappeared- literally vanished to specialize in another state without warning, in the middle of figuring out what was wrong with me. Finding a replacement has been miserable- I can't keep going to Texas, it's untenable. But I don't want to move from New Mexico either.

So, where do you folks go where you don't have to wait? Is Denver viable? How does your insurance work across states (I do not have a PPO)? Can you recommend a PCP taking new patients?

About 13-14 inches overnight and today.

I’m curious what this enormous building was used for? On the corner of San Mateo and central. Are there any future plans? What’s the deal with the other huge vacant building just down the street?

I am looking for a good roast duck. Has anyone seen that?

Why? Today there is a public gathering at the Civic Plaza at 2pm. People have been trying to announce it on this sub, only to have the announcements removed because the event is political in nature. Is this a new subreddit rule?

Edit: This is the post that was removed. NOTE: I just now added the red line to the word pr*t*est just in case that terrible word triggers the bots.

Second Edit: The image was deleted again. Let's try this again.

I'm looking for new friends. Let's grab a beer and look at Hot Wheels. Is there a club in town I don't know about? Maybe we should start one

I’m missing Spaghetti Factory, hungover and looking for places in town that might also serve this dish? I know it’s not hard to make but bonus points if that restaurant also door dashes!

These little anthills?? things are on my porch - what is making them? Should I do anything beyond just cleaning them off the stucco with a garden hose? Some, if u look closely, look like little webs covered with dirt. They didn't get much bigger, but there's quite a lot of them.

Any info on these is appreciated! tia

I know it’s at Civic Plazza. Does it start at one?

Anyone have a good contractor they've worked with in the past for bathroom remodels?

My mom is dying and we are trying to decide what is the cheapest option. Most funeral homes price things at $1,600 regardless of what’s on their websites.

Does anyone have any recommendations for places?
