hi y'all,

if anyone learns any updates on the first gal who was taken by ambulance today from the finish (the one who was unresponsive), please, please tell me. i feel horrible because i was hit so hard by the bystander effect and the call to EMS was delayed by a few minutes (at least) because of it. i should have just called but i didn't, figuring someone else had. if anyone learns whether or not she made it, please let me know. it's been weighing on me since it happened earlier today. thank you 💙

I don't know who needs to hear this, but my daughter just went to the prom dress giveaway that's happening at the College Hill High School gymnasium. She said there was a lot of dresses and not a lot of people. It's for two days this weekend, until 5 PM. Here's a news story about it:

DHS uniformed LE services is hiring and location posted is for Philomath, what the heck does DHS have in Philomath or planned? Again this is for uniformed LE, not ICE or HSI, Homeland Security Investigations or anything like that. DHS uniform guys are often assigned to ports be it sea or air but obviously that is not Philomath, what is going on?

Lemme know if you can find it's owner.

I just adopted a pom pup and am looking for a groomer who is experienced with this breed.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

What allergy medicines are you using today?

HELP - REWARD - LOST CAT

My cat is missing and must have snuck out the door. He is an indoor only cat and has been missing since this morning, 04/04. Pictures included. Missing from near Burgerville and McDonald's on Sequoia Ave.

I will offer a reward if found. He is microchipped under my name and phone number. Please text or call anytime.

Hi! My family is moving soon and I’m wondering if anyone knows where to find free or cheap moving boxes? I’ve tried stores but they’re telling me they crush them throughout the day and won’t hold them for anyone.

Hi internet users of Corvallis area.

I'd like to learn a new creative skill. In return, I can teach you how to draw.

I have been a lifelong draw-er, and have confidence I can give you a good overview of how to think like an illustrator.

I am also wanting to learn new skills, specifically other creative skills. (like how to make a stool or electronics repair?)

If anyone is interested, let me know :)

Can confirm, there is snow on Marys Peak

Please take this survey and tell the city we don't need paid parking downtown! I moved from a much larger city where parking cost a ton of money all day every day and it's just awful. Free parking downtown is one of the best things about Corvallis.

I love a fun event that supports a good cause and this one fits the bill! Could also be a great place for folks to meet new people with similar values. At least help me brainstorm a good costume!

Please leave an honest Google review. We are baffled by their positive reviews and assume they're from current tenants who understandably want to be on good terms to keep their rent low or other reasons.

Same goes with other property management companies you've had issues with as tenants, contracted workers, or landlords. They need to do better and people need to be warned.

Hey all, obvious trigger warning for gore and pet death.

My boyfriend and I are making the very tough decision to put down our cat. He's dying age, incredibly sick, and we just can't justify limping him along with such poor quality of life anymore.

In lieu of cremation, my partner wants him buried, but more than anything, he wants to see if anyone local has Dermestidae beetles that could be used to let him keep the cat's skull as a memorial. I am wholly unfamiliar with this process, but he says it's a not terribly difficult thing to do and we'd be very interested in connecting with someone locally who could help us do this. Compensation would be offered of course.

Thanks in advance

REWARD IF FOUND!!!!! My boyfriend lost his wallet somewhere downtown in the last two hours. I know this is a long shot but if anyone sees it give a shout. It is black with brown trim and slim. Dm me to check name.

If anyone is as interested as me in getting hands on these seeds, they’re available here. Happy growing, my garden nerds 😎

I've noticed a handful of people asking for work advice or people even looking to jump into work. Or try to figure out where to start.

I know it's a difficult world out there and finding work in this small ole town can be a hassle as well but I've found something that's pretty effective for me even till this day

Best piece of advice I can give is to jump into whatever work you can right away and build a resume and start writing down the skills that come along with the work you get into

I've gone around building my connections with people and befriending my old co-Workers and also asking my old bosses and co workers to be my references.

Usally if I quit a job or one lays me off.. cause we all know how it is around here being laid off its pretty common.

But me and a handful of people have a small network where if we know someone is good worker/Person we help them get a job where someone in our little network is.

Having alot of references gets you people's numbers and if they move on to a differnt job maybe some day you can catch up with them and see if where they are is hiring since they have already worked with you they can totally vouch for you and help you get your foot in the door.

It's sad to say but I truly feel like it's not about what you know anymore. It's about who you know.

Anyone know what that noise was near kings and circle? Sounded like fireworks almost but didn’t see any. Heard about 3 in a row and then 1 shortly after

I am a student online at another university in Oregon and instead of buying a printer I figured I'd see if they were any places in town you can print for free as a non OSU student. Thanks for your help!

I want to take my daughter on a hike, looking for easy recommendations. Thank you!

Asking for someone needing a one bedroom home ASAP. Must allow pets.

I am an accounting student seeking an entry level opportunity to get trained in entry level accounting. Data entry, maybe? I’m familiar with the accounting equation, and debits|credits, but that’s about it at this point in my education.

I am willing to work for free, if it gets me the opportunity to learn and gain entry level experience.

I am eager to gain experience prior to graduation - I have no prior related experience. I’m too early to apply for internships - of which I want with big 4. Previous experience or exposure and training will make an internship with big 4 more attainable for me.

Please comment if you have an opportunity for me!

Thank you.
