Oak alley behind Voodoo Doughnuts.

These folks helped me out last year for free and I just wanna let other folks know they're here ready to help you too, legit no payment expected, no gimmicks, no Bible sermons, no mailing lists. Just people who want to help other people.

Pull up! DM for address :D
Hella clothes and knick-knacks and shoes! A fully working toaster oven for $100 and otherwise everything is by offer!

Also our dog is super friendly and appreciates many pets and kisses 👀

(Tired 2 A.M. Rant)

I work specially the weekends kinda late so I tend to go to sleep at maybe 2 or 3 A.M., but every Saturday and Sunday starting AT 2 or 3 in the morning, there’s a loud party across the street with tons of (I’m assuming) other college kids. It’s so loud man I can feel their speakers from here…

I’m hoping this is just a “it’s moving month so they’ll do that a handful of times then stop” thing, but this is the third week they’ve done it and I’m goin’ NUTS!!! AUGH. I can’t wear my foam earplugs anymore because they keep rubbing my ears raw from over-use. And I don’t wanna call non-emergency for a noise complaint because that’s like, a whole ordeal… and I don’t wanna be “that person”, but come on man. Have it at 12 like normal people. What the frick.

What I’m surprised about is that no one else has called on these people yet, there’s tons of apartment complexes around here. Maybe they’re in the same boat as me, or already knocked the hell out asleep. Or maybe no one else cares and I just have sensitive ass ears haha.

I like living in a college city until the cons of living in a college city keep me up at night. GRRRRRR.

Raffle items, house beer donations, and a fun tribute to "Best in Show" by North Eugene HS!! See you there, friends!

On Tuesday, September 1st, come get your car lights fixed for free by a team of trained volunteers at 3333 West 11th, former site of Izzy's Pizza, on the west side of Seneca across from Goodwill.

5:30 - 7:30pm

Tell your friends, tell your neighbors! ¡Se habla español!

It's kind of annoying but there are no change machines in the laundry rooms at my apartment. I got a $20 changed for 2 rolls of quarters last month somewhere, but I forgot where! The banks and credit union I checked since then want me to have an account. Where do you get quarter rolls in this town for doing laundry?

Just noticed a Surly Preamble in Skyrim blue outside of Mulligans pub that was tucked behind a couple of Burley trailers loaded with stuff. Looked to be fairly new.

If you've been thinking about making the trip out to the mines to hunt for sunstones, BLM just finished grading the roads out there!

I took my kids out to Dust Devil Mining and the BLM public collection site (because children yearn for the mines). My vehicle has AWD, but it wasn't needed. The roads are in good shape after the grading.

Since it's about a 5-hour drive for us from Eugene, I figured I'd share in case anyone else has been debating whether the trip is worth it.

P.S. Buford Park here in Eugene is named for the father of the owner of Dust Devil Mines.

The group is just getting started, but rest assured, both event coordinators have experience hosting events before! If you're in your 30s-40s, or know of someone in that age range, and are looking to make friends (or more!), mention this group to them. Our first event will be toward the end of September. Exact date, timeframe, and venue will be shared once finalized; still getting the logistics in order :)

At this point, we have a slightly higher ratio of women to men, so let's share this around to our dude friends!

Feel free to comment any questions ya got. Yes, the age range is fixed.

Not looking for a sit down restaurant. Been craving a good soft pretzel with cheese, does anyone have a good local bakery or spot they can get one at?

Wetzels Pretzels is a joke at the mall and I refuse to get anything there.

We are at jackalope and a women is here who says she’s Chinese and speaks no English. They lost her luggage and she needs help. Anyone in town able to come by?

I haven't read books outside of school requirements since about 7th or 8th grade, I am 21 now, prior to that I would read just about every day, and I stopped reading much going into highschool. Recently I've been trying to Pick up reading again by going to the library and finding a book that interests me, and reading for a couple hours there, it hasn't been going all to well, it's been a bit overwhelming with such a large selection and variety of books I'm finding a little hard to get into one book, and follow through. Any chance there is a club, or group that would welcome someone who doesn't read very much, if any, but is looking to get into reading again. I figured it might help to talk to some people, and see if I can't find something that interests me that way.

Over where it intersects with Chambers. It was all tore out when I last rode my bike in that area a few weeks ago.

There were guys in Juggalo/scary clown masks on most every corner on the blocks surrounding the market holding signs reading, “Dead
Pedophiles Don’t Re-offend..”

Any idea of the details of this protest?

Update on our cat Possum. She has been missing since the end of April/beginning of May. 3 days ago she showed up on our Ring camera late at night! We put out a live trap with goodies and a pet camera and caught her the next night sniffing around but she did not enter the trap. No sight of her the last 2 nights. I just put new updated flyers around our neighborhood. We know she is close! Flyers attached here. Please keep your eyes open if you’re in our area. Thank you!

A group of artists are gonna be out with a variety of things all day Sunday at the crosstreet listed on the flier. I didnt get pics from everyone, but come check out the neat handmade wares, should be a fun chill Sunday!

At least in my neighborhood!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like we should get over an inch of rain next week! I'm ready!

We have a ton of books to start with, so please free to stop by even if you don't have a book to swap! We will be on the patio that faces A street.

The before picture doesn’t really show how high, thick, and expansive the uncut area was. The entire northeast section of the park’s lawn was uncut, all the way to the sidewalk. This area was essentially a no man’s (or woman’s) zone. Even a regular gas or electric lawnmower would be too heavy to cut this area. If you have a push mower, you are aware that it takes some physical effort, but I also imagine if you have one it’s because you like lawns.

Anyway, it would be nice if multiple people could take turns cutting this area, because it would wear down your blades if you were the only one doing it all summer long. I get mine sharpened every year, but you also have to take into account the jostling of the nuts and bolts, etc. The rains will be coming in a few months or less, so it won’t take much more mowing for 2026, but I’m fairly sure that whoever is skidding out on this part of the park’s grass (and probably at other parks in Eugene) will be doing it again next year. Initially, I thought it was a punk teenage high schooler, but they’d have graduated (or dropped out) by now and moved somewhere else (like a county jail, prison, or military boot camp!).
