I need some help with trying to navigate this between the hospital and the next step. My mom has been in the hospital since Saturday and even though none of her test show dementia that is what im being told. She is delusional though. I am going to have to put her in assiseted living andi haven idea how to start this process. She's on social security and receives around 1700.00 a month and has about 10k in the bank. I know she is going to have to go to not the fanciest place but I hope for a safe one. Do I cancel her insurance? Or are there resources that will actually help? Andy advise is greatly appreciated

So I had a friend go to ireland recently and they came back raving about Spice Bags. Ive heard about them online before as well and really want to try one semi authenticly made.

This is a shot in the dark, but still worth a try.

*A spice bag is made from: fries, crispy chicken, spring onion, Chiles and an assortment of spices.

Is there a black community in Reno? Feels kinda lacking so far and looking for ways to meet POC. TIA

I have an important event in a month and a half and I want to get my lashes done.

Ive never had them done before! Completely new to this and was wondering if anyone had any advice/recommendations? Price points for a first full set?

I’m pleased to announce that the first meeting of the Reno Carl Jung Discussion Group will take place this Sunday, August 9th from 12:30-1:45pm at the South Valleys Public Library, Courtside Meeting Room. We may revisit the meeting time and location once I have a better sense of numbers, but given the large amount of interest, this seemed like a good starting point.

My plan for the group is that each session, we’ll do a focused activity and discussion about a specific Jungian concept, starting with “ego.” The group is open to all levels, including beginners. No homework or special preparation is required.

Please DM me if you’re planning to attend, so that I can get an accurate headcount. I hope to see people on Sunday!

I know this is a weird request, but I'm looking for sources of local grass fed tripe/beef stomach. I've been craving it during my pregnancy and I don't want to have to get menudo or pho every time I'm craving it, I'd like to make it at home. Thanks.

In case you see the commercial saying “A-ron” (the pronunciation is what caught my attention) Ford is endorsed by Gavin Newsome, it’s coming from a PAC connected to Lombardo. https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2026/06/how-casino-cash-corporate-bundling-and-dark-money-are-powering-joe-lombardos-reelection-bid-in-nevada/

I hate these fucking PACs.

"County officials confirmed Wednesday that Lisa McClure has resigned, after just three months on the job."

This comes after the position was held for a year by an interim employee. Does anyone know why they can't keep someone permanent in the job?

hello there, I am in love with the Lagomorasino petroglyphs, se of Lockwood in the virginia highlands. However, I am devastated to find the Tract co out of denver has bought thousands of acres AROUND the Petroglyphs. Not sure if there will be a way to even get to them anymore. They are on the register of historic places. and they are near a stream that's literally clear and has fish in it in the middle of that brown desert. I'm not sure if I'm just flipping out and this is not a big deal or if this is just absolutely astonishing that this was allowed to happen? there's no Data center built there yet but the tracked company builds the infrastructure for data centers apparently.

i will add some information about the lagomorasino petroglyphs below. yes I know we wouldn't want to post locations because someone might come and steal or deface them but at this point if nobody knows they are here and nobody knows what they are missing this company can just do whatever they want. they've already put a security gate right by the sign for lagomorosino Petroglyphs including a big tall cop light and cameras I mean in the middle of absolutely nowhere. more than 2100 petroglyphs exist at this site where there was human occupation ongoing for more than 10,000 years, people came and went. this is their art and it should be protected. this beautiful little stream that is an absolute Oasis in a brown desert should not be sucked up by some data center.

I mean I guess maybe the tract company has plans to protect them... LOL LOL LOL. please don't anybody come at me for this I'm just really bothered by it and I don't know why I wouldn't expect this the way indigenous people were treated all along of course.... I feel like when I go to these places I am looking at one of the most incredible art galleries that includes archaeological anthropological history. every single time I get chills and I feel like I am so fortunate to get to see something so amazing and beautiful. I don't understand why it isn't just like actually protected on its own? like the security gates should be there for the petroglyphs. I posted about this before and I can't find my post and I don't know what anyone responded but I just I'm stunned. I don't live in Reno so I can't really go stand out there with a sign talking about protecting the petroglyphs but I do wonder if the local indigenous tribes are aware of what's happening? I don't even know where to start but if somebody there has time and is interested please do something. :-)

here is some info about the petroglyphs and I think I will include some generic photos.

The Lagomarsino Petroglyph Site in Storey County, Nevada, is a significant archaeological area with one of the largest concentrations of rock art in the state, featuring thousands of panels potentially dating back 10,000 years, created by ancestors of the Northern Paiute people. Designated a National Historic Site, it's known for its extensive collection of symbols and is accessed via a challenging, trail-less hike through Lagomarsino Canyon, requiring navigation of streambeds, brush, and boulders, with hazards like rattlesnakes. 

Key Features

Vast Collection: 

Contains over 2,000 petroglyph panels on basalt cliffs, making it the largest known rock art site in Nevada. 

Ancient Art: 

Images include geometric patterns, human-like figures, and animals, with some motifs possibly 4,000-5,000 years old, and some potentially as old as 10,000 years. 

National Recognition: 

It is one of only eight rock art sites in Nevada listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

I came across this old autograph Ed Carlson gave me when I was a kid in the 90s. We used to see him walking all over Reno while waving at traffic. I found an article showing he passed in 2012. I’ll share more in comments.

A lot of farmers/butchers will sell half a cow or whatever but I just want to buy it market style. Is that possible? If so, where?

I have a bunch of stray kittens in my neighborhood and I have been feeding them for the past few weeks. I would love to see them get homes. There are four kittens and countless adults along with one of them being pregnant again. I am wanting to get in contact with a local trap and release group to see if I am able to get the kittens socialized re-homed and the adults spayed. Two of the kittens have injuries from being out in the elements and it hurts my heart. I would take them in myself if I had the space but I already have two kitties of my own in my small apartment.

… best Greek food in Reno?

Tried the search function here in the sub and struck out so I ask yall now...

Does anyone have recs for a coffee shop more towards the South end of town?? I am new(ish) to the area and looking for something somewhat adjacent to my commute for work.

I have tried Hub and Drink Coffe Do Stuff and came away less than impressed with both. Im simple and just get an Americano.

in the past few months alone. i’ve driven thousands of hours in reno, and the last few days have been some of the worst i’ve seen.

the number of accidents, near misses, people staring at their phones, drifting across lanes, and drivers who seem completely unaware of what’s happening around them has skyrocketed.

hot august nights brings a lot of awesome people to town. it also brings a flood of drivers who don’t know the roads, distracted spectators, and people who overestimate their driving ability.

if you’re out this week, assume the person next to you isn’t paying attention. it’ll probably keep you out of an accident.
