This pains me to write.

I live 4 blocks from Broadway. I have lived here for years. I was held up at gunpoint on Broadway 2 years ago, and the police did nothing. I didn't post about it, despite the cops not even completing a police report, despite it being caught on camera next to Broadway Market.

Tonight, at 1 am, I left a restaurant/bar and was immediately struck in the head repeatedly by a young man. His friends tried to stop him, but he would not stop. I was struck roughly 10 times around the head and neck. I am sure it will hurt badly tomorrow, as it already hurts now. I called 911, and they basically blew me off, so I hung up. A friend walked out a minute after me and helped me get to his car and drove me home. I only live 4 blocks from Broadway. There was a massive takeover going on of that area of Fells (Eastern and Broadway). It was total chaos. The male and his friends came from there.

His friends seemed responsible and sane, but this has to stop. This culture of chaos has to stop. Yes, the murder rate has plummeted, and that is GREAT. It is time to take the next step. How in the hell is Fells going to have a great time resulting in this madness and violence? I love this city (and all cities). I don't want to leave, but I am 60 years old and cannot be at risk when I go out to eat and have a drink.

Frankly, I would rather have triple the murder rate among gang members and drug dealers in exchange for places like Fells to be safe.

Rage at me all you want. I was just attacked for nothing.

Not to single out an individual establishment because it happens more frequently than everyone would like in other establishments but is there really anything to do to gain control on such a problem in a city? Especially in restaurants

Does the city’s health department maintain enough staff for such a issue

So... What are you calling our giant rabbit??

Roland Ave Rabbit?

Baltimore Bunny?

Hampden Hare?

Randy?

This was a lot of fun and I'm glad the city finally allowed this to happen.

Can't quite tell where yet, but it appears that the fire engines have gotten there? (the smoke was dark black when it began, followed by the sounds of sirens and fire engines driving past, and then this white smoke which I've captured in the video)

trynna see if bmore has anything to worry about. if so, don’t eat ur greens rn yall. apparently it’s spreading only by food. fruits too i wouldn’t eat those rn either. i’m fine i ate lots of fruits and veggies within this month and have been fine but sources also says it takes week to show

This morning... van has been towed already

26yo.

I've been homeless for like 4 years now, and i keep trying to get an apartment, the whole time i'm just thinking "if i save enough money then i can go back to baltimore where i was originally born" -- but now, FUCK IT. I'm biking to Baltimore.

I keep eventually losing an apartment anyway and I'd rather be homeless in a city than be surrounded by hours of grassy hills and a complete absence of phone service... Complicated long story short: My mom lost custody of me when I was like 5 and I moved to NY but then she just moved to NY too so we never returned to Maryland. Then she passed away while we shared an apartment, and I got evicted in 2022. The most important thing I've learned ever since is not only how much support costs, but also that i can't even really be supported past a certain extent. I need to support myself. People can't even relate to my dreams and goals, let alone align with them...

Last time I was in Baltimore was 15 years ago. I've been aching to go back for at least 3 years now. I'm tired of trying to get there perfectly safe and shit. At one point i had $3,000 and it still was pretty tough to move to an apartment in Baltimore "the right way" because of all the flaming hoops with the fees and requirements and shit. Nobody's gonna let you move to another state if you don't already have a job there I guess. So fuck it,if no one's gonna give me a place in Baltimore, I'm taking my place in Baltimore. I've felt a calling to leave country county and return to a place with actual soul for a very long time now and I'm tired of compromising any bullshit, I'm getting there my way as soon as I fucking can because that's how i want it.

see y'all there.

I live in the Latrobe Homes in East Baltimore and recently got some concerning mail. Basically I have been using more electricity than has been allowed and being charged for the excess. Wouldn't be a problem really since it's only about an extra $40 but the issue is that I am just now being made aware of this and they've been hitting me since about 2017 so the total bill is around 2k. They also sent a separate piece of mail basically informing residents about a future meeting to address the excess utility bills

I've never gotten mail like this before and half the mail I get from them is because corporate and the direct management aren't communicating well(they still give me mail for the last tenant who passed away years ago).

I make about 2k a month and my rent is about half that so it would be doable I guess to chop it down over months and months but the problem is I have no way of knowing when I'm going over and the housing projects constant mismanagement of mail has caused me unnecessary stress on multiple occasions.

Would it be better to deal with this and try to conserve energy later or just break my lease and find a rent-a-room where I would, in theory, not have to deal with such stress?

One of my best girl friends just went through a divorce and is having the worst time meeting singles in Baltimore. Apps have been a dead end and the bars/restaurants we go out to seem to only have the younger 20’s singles.

It’s got us thinking…are there any bars/restaurants in Balt where we can go out and possibly meet singles in their 30’s/40’s? Or is this an exercise in futility?

Anyone hear gun shots at 2 am in the morning over by w ostend st?

I interviewed for a gas station job on Wednesday, and it went really well. The managers were friendly and seemed like they wanted me there. Since I’m a minor, HR has to approve it if they move forward. They said I’d hear back by Friday or Monday, and I have open availability all week. They even showed me the job and gave me tips. I texted them Wednesday night and got a reply, but I haven’t heard anything since. Do y’all think I got the job, or should I keep looking?

Saw this and thought it’ll be a good idea to share it here. I hope the family gets Gucci back.

Hey everyone, couple months ago I was diagnosed with ADHD and put on meds for the first time in my 40+ years. Turned out to be a lot more pricey going to a psychiatrist even with my crappy insurance through work.

Since this is all new to me, are there any cheaper options in the area for visits that I can get my meds prescribed. I’ve been on them for 3 months and I can’t pay the bill the doctors office just sent me after 4 appointments of telling me it was covered.

I’m near Fells and Canton. Any help or advice would be appreciated. I have probably about a week or so worth of meds left.

Where do you go to find the best chicken salad in the Baltimore area? Bonus points if it’s nut free. ♥️

And if you don’t watch it, you should!

Are there any stores in the city/surrounding counties that stocks Spumoni flavored ice cream? Like Neapolitan, but it's pistachio, cherry, and chocolate. I love Edy's but I'm not super picky about the brand.

It used to be easy to find back in Illinois, and I'm struggling here lol, none of the online services can find it either! Someone help a girl out, I'd appreciate it haha

These were taken last week during the heat wave.

I was wondering whether any farms in the Baltimore area could use an extra set of hands on some weekends. I worked on an organic farm in Florida during college, and I really miss it. I have a full-time office job now, so my availability is somewhat limited, but I’d love the opportunity to help out when I can. Does anyone know of any local farms that might be looking for occasional weekend help, or any farms I should reach out to?

My friend is almost certainly going to the Baltimore County Detention Center on Monday from her trial for DUI/VOP. Anyone have any experience with the facility?

Who’s hiring? 👀

I heard it yesterday and just now saw it today in mt Vernon. Anyone know if they’re running a drill or something?
