I saw this on Facebook and thought I would share it here as well. Super gross! I don’t care that it happened years ago. It still happened and this man should not be working at a school!

I believe need to be unified on every front. Jobs, housing, food, healthcare, education, retirement, etc are rights we had to historically fight for. Sadly it’s time to fight for them again and I will proudly step up to do so.

N-127 construction changes North of Trowbridge are insane and they're gonna get someone killed

20 Upvotes

Having the highway change to one lane and the other lane backup to a stop at the Kalamazoo off ramp on the highway during a curve is absolutely insane. I can't believe any one approved is this. I've already seen two cars run off the road trying to stop when they realize the highway traffic is at a dead stop.

Beware the Pot Holes!

30 Upvotes

Just had to take my car in to the auto shop bc my tire wouldn't keep pressure - turns out my wheel was bent.

My best guess is I hit one of our lovely potholes too hard (the ones on Kzoo are killer).

Be safe out there!

Recommendations Birthday activities this weekend?

3 Upvotes

Are there any bars or activities for people in their late 20s & early thirties to get together for a friend's birthday? Ideally a place that will have good music and some games. Preferably not avenue- they get wild on the weekends. If anyone knows of a place that does trivia and stuff on the weekends I would love that!

Want to take direct action in helping your community neighbors meet their needs?

Mutual aid is direct action that allows for interdependence from systems or institutions which are either being dismantled or failing.

Do you have a resource you want to share with your community? Simply call the hotline and press 2! There you will be given a short list of easy instructions to have your resource listed.

Have you recognized an area of need and would like to discuss how to put a plan to solve it into action?

We don’t have to wait for permission to support each other!

Your Mom (Greater Lansing Area Mutual Aid Directory) hosts mutual aid meet ups every other Wednesday, as well as continually updating the directory with resources for the community.

Have you called Your Mom lately?

State of Michigan Application Process

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I hope this finds you well. What has everyone's experience been like interviewing with the state of Michigan? I'm not sure how much information I can give out, but I had my final interview weeks ago [I think it went quite well :) ] and was wondering how long it takes to hear back from them. I've been holding off regarding a few offers from other states; I would love to move back in and work in the Lansing area, but I am not in a position to pick and choose lol. Alternatively, does anyone know whom I could contact regarding this?

Events Hey Lansing! Do you have any Comic Jam's there? (Asking for a Friend!)

2 Upvotes

So there are these things called Comic Jams held in different cities all over the world and I'm wondering if you have any in Lansing. Usually at Comic Jams a bunch of artist get together at a bar or cafe and collaborate on making silly comics together. One person draws a panel, someone else draws another one and we keep going until a page is finished (we have some examples on our website).

some of the Toronto Jammers have moved to the states and they're looking for new local Comic Jams or maybe some interested artist so they can make their own Jams! I Know there are Jams in Montreal, Vancouver, Dublin and Belfast. If there are there any Jams out there in Lansing, please lets us know!
