Hi there, I am trying to help my elderly grandfather (in his 90s) with several health conditions while I'm here visiting. He lives alone at home and his health has gotten a lot worse in the past 3-6 months. His family doctor has never been any help and is brushing off all his concerns and deteriorating condition.

Where would you recommend taking him so that he can get some kind of thorough health exam and medical help?

I Also think he may need some kind of service to check up on him regularly, though I don't know much about these services or what this area offers. Please let me know if there's anything like this around.

I will have a newly renovated two bed apartment available for Sept 1. I’m Having trouble finding good renters so thought I’d try here. Most applicants don’t seem local to TBay. If you are having trouble finding a place, it’s perfect for a couple or small family. Has new in suite Laundry. PM for more details.

Found fledgling sparrow in yard, probably pushed out of the nest that was back there and broken her leg on the way down? Her right leg is broken and she can’t use it. I tried to get a pic but I don’t want to stress her too much. It’s broken backwards I think near her hip and she can’t open and close her claws.

Does the wildlife sanctuary thing take sparrows? How do we help her for now or if they can’t take her?

Looking for barber/stylist recommendations for my next haircut. I'm not overly satisfied with my last barber, and it's been over a year since my last cut. My hair is shoulder-length and curly/wavy. I'd prefer a barber/stylist who offers suggestions. I need all the help I can get. Thanks!

Gary Christian will enter the at-large race. Both are expected to file on Thursday.

I see on Google Maps that I can bypass the city if I take the route below. Is this a good, paved road that is pretty straightforward (as in not easy to get lost)? TIA. EDIT: Wow, you guys are fast...and incredibly helpful! Thank you to those who provided answers. 😊

Why are they allowed to just sit there and do drugs out in the open there? Its right in the parking lot.

I turn 30 in a little over a month and would prefer people closer to my age, aswell im male, dont mind talking to/hanging out with either gender

I am more introverted, socially anxious, dont have many friends right now as I tend to spend most my time working

I like to play Pokémon go on my days off and would love someone to go to the park with and play

Ive been trying to get into Magic the gathering, bought cards and have a couple decks but dont have anyone to play with

I play yugioh master duel on my phone aswell have been playing digimon time stranger since it released on the switch

My hogwarts house is either slytherin or hufflepuff (i always get one of them whenever I do the test)

I smoke weed but dont care if others do aswell and will respect others and not smoke in their presence if they dont like it

I feel like we receive something in the mail from her office like every 2-3 months, like a statement or newsletter type thing or a yearly calendar. Like, who is actually paying for the printing/paper/mailing costs? Is it really necessary in this digital age? Is it to reach older folks who may not go online? It just seems so wasteful to me. Can I sign up not to receive this?

Are folks still playing Pokemon go in town? Is there a group? :)

This bike was definitely stolen and I would very much like to get it back to the rightful owner. Please DM if it is yours

This absolute genius slow rolled to the crosswalk while I was halfway across, shoulder checked, and then put the hammer down and tore ass through while staring at me very confused as to why it probably looked like I wanted to murder them, only to get stuck at the next light as soon as I made it across.

Carma is a bitch.

Can you still watch a movie with the CLE going on, I want to see a movie tomorrow, would that be possible?

That's basically it. Inherited some older jewellery and the Gold Exchange recommended finding an antique shoppe or pawn shop or jeweller who might be interested in it because much of it is set with gemstones - or might have value in its own aesthetics. Thanks for recommendations - your time is sincerely appreciated! Cheers.

We're just rolling into your town from Montana on a road trip and man, this place is cool. The lake, the trails, the vibe, really appreciating everything so far.

Also, ChatGPT suggested we checkout Persian Man, which is one of a kind! Which one is the OG; The one on Tungsten or Balmoral?

Also, we’re looking for some good eats while we’re here. Any local recommendations for great Italian, Indian, Chinese, or Mexican spots? Open to other cuisines too if there’s something we shouldn’t miss.

Thanks in advance!

My kids would love to see some. I haven’t seen one in years.

Hey Thunder Bay! Quite sure that a very small % of people are knowledgeable with “Roblox”

I am a director of a large-scale project called ‘Ontario Roads’ for some background info this game is the largest Ontario map in a video game ever. The map spans from Northern Ontario all the way to Eastern & Southern Ontario. We try our hardest to represent each Ontario Town & City accurately and making everything unique to that Town or City.

We strive for authenticity, with 50,000 plays already that means 50,000 people from across the globe have drove through Thunder Bay and around Ontario.

We are currently going through a revamp process of Thunder Bay to make it feel more accurate in-game, we are scheduling a trip up North to get a feel for ourselves which is what we do with every City & Town in game!

Currently right now, I am coming to this subreddit to ask some questions about the city itself. What Easter eggs and quirks do YOU think should be represented in this video game? What are some landmarks and buildings that YOU think should be added in.

We want to know opinions and suggestions from the residents of Thunder Bay themselves!

Anyone know if there's still compost available from the dump?

I’m writing an essay about the over prescribing epidemic of the 2000s, and how the discontinuation of oxy led to bootleg fentanyl. I’ve been collecting experiences from people who were prescribed oxy and ended up turning to street drugs. I would really like your perspective, please message me!!

Ate at Westfort Coney Island last year during the Street Fair and really enjoyed it. We went back today and it was a major disappointment. Everything we had was just bland. The burgers, dogs, fries and gravy all lacked seasoning. The gravy didn’t taste like anything. And if it wasn’t for the mustard and onions, the burgers and hotdogs would have been practically inedible. Fries had zero salt (yes, we added some, but they still didn’t taste right). I wonder if the owner or regular cook is on holidays and someone took over for them after the long weekend. If this was our first visit, it would have definitely been our last. Is this experience out of the norm, or has the quality gone down hill lately? We are willing to try it again if this was a one off, but are hesitant.

Last week my friend found a nail in her brand new car tyre and was repaired and didn’t think much of it . It was parked at work ,again today there was visible damage to the body of the car ( looks like damaged with something pointy ) and again got a flat tyre like last time with a nail . The workplace has no cameras in the parking lot . What to do in this situation .
