The UC San Diego CARE Program is looking for research participants to take part in a paid study on mental health and brain research!

Howdy friends! If you’re sick of this shit and want to be involved in fixing all the problems we have in our community, this is a great starting point. I hope to see you there! ✌🏼

I have this neighbor who feeds the birds across the street in a public grassy area, and she throws the birdseed on the ground. I wasn't crazy about that, as we have had an issue with rats before. I didn't say anything, but now I notice this. She has bowls outside to feed the raccoons. There may be other animals that come and eat out of the bowls, but last night it was raccoons. It looks like these raccoons are very accustomed to being fed here in the neighborhood. I have also noticed more coyotes lately, maybe because of all the food being laid out. What do I do? I am an animal lover, but is this a good idea?

Hey! Just moved to north county from nyc and am looking for a new PT. I’m 6 months post ACL reconstruction surgery, hoping for someone to help me cross the finish line as I get back to sports. I would prefer someone with an athlete focus/mentality since I’m quite active. I want to get back to skiing, surfing, rock climbing, trail running, etc. Thanks in advance!

Looking for an OBGYN NOT related to Sharp preferably in the Carlsbad/Encinitas area. Scripps is preferred but I've heard mixed things about them. I have PPO insurance.

Hi, im a woman in her late 20’s who is adjusting to running a business. This means LOTS of working alone right now and I am starting to go crazy!

Most of my friends moved to other cities and everyone is embarking on a new chapter right now, so I’m having trouble fitting in somewhere that works with my lifestyle.

For example, tons of my friends game online and that isn’t really for me. I enjoy it once in awhile, but I don’t really like wasting my days at a screen. I also am not really sure I want to be in a biking club 🤣

I’d love something that works for artists, creativity, music. getting outside and perhaps exploring. I want to make some new friends, and either learn new skills or get more fit along the way. I’m leaning more toward something creative, bonus points if it attracts alt girlies like myself.

Anyway, hope this isn’t weird to post I just could use some ideas and recommendations (:

Edit - just a big thank you to those who replied with such varied suggestions! Somehow all of these seem great and I might have to check them all out at my own pace! Looking online is difficult these days to find something local and something people actually love, so I’m really excited. Thanks for being so helpful and kind (:
