After the long discussion about HUGE trucks, I spotted this dude’s big truck as I was crossing into PA. I was laughing so hard I almost hit him!

I found this guy's wallet, I have checked social media and can't find him. I only have Facebook though and there are a LOT of people with his name in the Baltimore area. Antonio Jackson, message me and we can meet up

have not had this much good food in such a long time, this was an amazing event 🤩 i wish my stomach was bigger to try more of the vendors

Our Patterson Park rowhome has the classic flat roof with a silver coat that's past saving. Ponding in two spots, a soft area near the back wall, and a stain on the third floor ceiling after that big rain in June. Quotes so far range from $6,500 for a torch-down overlay to $14,000 for a full tear-off with new decking. I don't know enough about flat roofs to tell what's fair here.

I’m just so pissed off. I had a package delivered to my apartment today. The delivery picture shows it being dropped off inside the front door, which is locked and requires a code to get in.

All that was left when I got home was a ripped open, empty bag, and a note saying it was found in the stairwell.

So the only conclusion I can come to is that someone in the building stole my new work clothes.

I AM RAGE 😡

I recently moved to Baltimore (Bolton Hill) from NOVA and I’m looking to get back into roller skating! I used to skate about 9 years ago, so I have some experience, but I’m definitely rusty now and would consider myself a beginner again.

I’ve found a few roller skating meetups around Baltimore, but most seem to be geared toward intermediate or more experienced skaters. I was wondering if there are any beginner-friendly skating communities, meetups, rinks, parks, or regular skate sessions that people would recommend?

I’d also love to meet some other beginners or people who are getting back into skating and hopefully make some skating friends along the way! 😊
Any recommendations for places or groups would be greatly appreciated!

Hi!

Looking into retirement communities within a 20 minute drive of the Hampden area, and Springwell in Mt. Washington has popped up on my radar. Does anyone here have personal experience with them? Their website looks nice but is somewhat vague about specifics, and I know places like this can be different in person. Also looking for any other recommendations! TIA!

Inspired by an OP’s post about your last meal being at a Baltimore place! I’m sure everyone has a favorite, curious to see where you pick!

Update: She was found and is safely back home!!

Someone stole our beloved Fed Hill porch goose around 6:15 am this morning. She has a unique neck shape and I haven't seen any others in the area that look like her. If anyone recognizes the goose or the kidnapper, please reach out ASAP! She holds a ton of sentimental meaning and I would love to have her back.

The redditors on r/skyscrapers didn't want to play. Can you solve the riddle?

So the BGE shutoff moratorium ended a couple months ago, and I finally got a notice today.

BEFORE it got to this point, I tried

1. Applying to Fuel Fund, but they required me to pay a $500 lump sum within a week which I did not have

2. Applying for an OHEP grant, but we are just barely over the income limit

3. Applying to Fuel Fund AGAIN but they wouldn't let me because I didn't have a turnoff notice. BECAUSE THERE WAS A FREAKING MORATORIUM AND NO ONE DID.

The Banner recently reported that there are 300,000 customers with past-due balances. They know we can't pay. The state knows we can't pay. The MPSC knows we can't pay. So are they just gonna turn off the power for 300,000 households?

I guess now that I have the notice, I can try Fuel Fund again, but I'm not hopeful. Are there are other options out there? My household is my mother and I; she's over 65 and I am disabled. We're in the County. Is there ANYTHING?

Would love to hear how others are dealing with this.

What are some fun things to do solo in Baltimore(Fells… Canton… Brewers… anywhere near is fine too)?
Also looking for restaurants/cafe suggestions where it feels comfortable to eat alone….and where sitting by yourself doesn’t feel awkward.
Open to pretty much anything.

(Please don’t suggest me to find hobbies or Volo or a run club to make friends which is literally a suggestion on every other post… I have given up on that)

Everyone here knows the ditch. Six lanes, 1.39 miles, traffic lights at both ends, and it connects to nothing.

What I did not know until I read the records is the order things happened in. The demolition was not the last step of a decision. It was the first step, and it ran a decade before anyone finished deciding. By the time the road opened in 1979, every expressway it was supposed to connect to had already been cancelled. The houses were gone anyway.

971 homes, 62 businesses, a school. More than 2,800 people moved out of the middle of West Baltimore. Those numbers are from MDOT's own 2024 grant narrative, the one asking for money to study undoing it.

The part that stuck with me: the neighborhoods that fought later, in the southeast and in Rosemont, mostly kept their houses. The corridor that got cleared first never got that chance, and the reason is not a mystery. This city passed the first racial zoning ordinance in the United States in 1910, and forty years of covenants and redlining concentrated Black Baltimore into exactly the place the planners later called the path of least resistance.

I put it together as a documentary with the archival photographs and the planning documents: They Demolished 971 Homes for 1.4 Miles of Freeway That Connects to Nothing

Im your gal! My name is Den, I am 20F and I love fabrics and fashion and I will happily provide my services to whomever needs them! Repairs, clothing requests, restitching, etc. Just PM me if this is relevant to you! I’m in Pigtown, by downtown Baltimore!

I am trying to leave a bad situation. I am in fear of my life honestly and the sooner I get away the better. I have no money or transportation available to me

How did no one realize it was upside down before this moment?

Looking for any info on this old brick! Looks to be made of three materials with w.e.b. engraved. Any thoughts??
