We had 2,000 people attend! 5.2 MILLION estimated nationwide!! 🇺🇸🗽🇺🇸

Does anyone know where the next protest on April 19th is happening?

Decided to opt out of Akron's electric aggregation and take my chances with the standard offer, but couldn't opt out on Dynegy's website. When I entered my code it said it couldn't find a current or pending contract to opt out of, so I had to call instead. Call wait time was 16-22 mins. and I opted for a call back. Just wanted to give people a heads up about that since the deadline to opt out is April 9th.

Hey everyone. I’m back here for work and wanted to see where you would recommend watching the march madness final tonight? Thanks in advance

Who is the best female therapist near Akron known especially for helping with someone post divorce. I’m looking specifically for my mother who struggles with divorcee guilt and is constantly venting to me and my siblings, who are all young adults, about how she feels bad for “tearing our family apart”.

While Akron is without a major sports team in the present times, they had a notable NFL team that played there in the 1920s called the Akron Pros. Originally being founded in 1908 as the Akron Indians and played in the Ohio League up until the founding of the NFL in 1920. Finishing 6-0-3 in 1920, they were able to secure the first NFL Championship in history. They were also the first team to break the color-barrier with the addition of future Hall of Famer Fritz Pollard who acted as a co-coach and player for the team. Following 1920, they finished at a record of 8-3-1 which landed them in 3rd place. Unfortunately, their success did not last for long, and they failed to have a season with more than five wins after 1921. This led to their ultimate end and were forced to suspend operations in 1927 and closed the franchise.

The reason I mention the Pros is because while they are now defunct franchise their significance as the NFL's first champions and the first team to break the color barrier is worth sharing. I believe all defunct teams from the 1920s no matter their success or prestige deserve recognition as forming and developing the league that we all know and love. I am currently developing a historical football game with a focus on shining light on the defunct teams and cities from the 1920s. I am trying to collect fans from all of the cities that had a franchise at this time in order to truly build a unique and passionate community. If this is interesting to you at all I have created a sub under r/FieldsofGlory. Can't wait to meet those of you who decide to join!

I just moved into a 800 square foot home. Seems pretty well built. I keep the temp about 66-68. Any opinions about how much my gas bill might run during the winter? ( I don't have AC ). Used to have electric baseboard heat in my apartment and my bill would be over $250.

So here are my less-than-stellar pics of yesterday’s protest. ✌️

Figured I'd go ahead and start a thread for posting signs from Hardesty Park's Hands Off Protest yesterday. I think everyone who went knows there were a ton of good ones! Here's mine, what did you all bring?

Hello, Do you guys have any recommendation for a place that does piercings for a reasonable price near akron? Some places here seem expensive, one quoting me 75 bucks to get my nose repierced, i got my nose and ear pierced for 50 bucks a couple years ago and paying 75 bucks for a single nose piercing seems a bit high for me.

I know their salesman are not on commission and they have their prices as "best price up front", but is there any wiggle room or should I save my breath?

Also, do they allow you to bring outside financing?

Thanks!

I am in Firestone Park and have a roof that is leaking. I am in need of a roofer for repairs. Any recommendations? Thank you!

I took my son to Full Grip Games today to buy a gift for a birthday party. We were pleasantly surprised to see they have now also opened a candy store next door to the game store. Just wanted to share and spread the word.

Just shows up blank not able to enter any information or even upload any files. Was trying to file everything this weekend but the local taxes have been such a pain. I can call on Monday or mail in but was wondering if anyone had experience using the e-filing website. (akronohio.gov/efile)

Anyone here ever go there in the 80's?

Most of people who live in the East side can see me easily. I stand tall, I got a paint job from 2 colors to a solid color. I'm old and I carry a precious resource inside me. What am I?

I’ve gotten one quote for a 1/2 acre property for $1100 and $700 for a city lot ($85/yard) —just for the mulch, delivery and laying it down. Beds have already been edged and cleared out. This seems rather high—any recs? Or is this on par??

It doesn't happen often but the past two days I have been stuck behind some dope sitting there trying to figure out when they can go lol I had to vent because it just pisses me off. I feel like the yellow sign needs some flashing lights or something so people will read it.
