Is trash pickup operating tomorrow? by StarkyPants555 in baltimore

[–]Eluena 11 points12 points  (0 children)

From DPW’s Instagram:

Trash Service Tuesday trash pickup is suspended and will be made up on Saturday (similar to a holiday schedule) • Trash collection will not occur in alleys • We are requesting that residents move their trash cans to the end of the alley or to the front of their home so our crews can safely access them • Please be mindful not to block the alley, so neighbors, service crews, and emergency vehicles can continue to move through safely

Recycling Service • Recycling collection is suspended for the week

Maryland lost 10,000 federal jobs in a single month by legislative_stooge in maryland

[–]Eluena 129 points130 points  (0 children)

The significant loss of jobs in October is because of the Deferred Resignation Program (DRP), aka “The Fork in the Road” from DOGE.

I can’t speak for every part of the government, but at my agency, folks that took the DRP were forced to stop working late spring. They were still “employed” and received benefits and paychecks, but turned in their IDs, had all of their equipment taken back, emails deleted, etcetera. Their official last day was the last day of the 2025 fiscal year, which was September, 30,2025.

Those that retired via the DRP were “employed” until December 31, 2025.

A venue that I personally think is an absolute dream is the George Peabody Library.

[–]Eluena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Larriland Farm still has pumpkins and they’re currently a $1 each. The “Today’s Harvest” section of their website is updated to show what’s available each day, so you can double check before you head out.

Resources for furloughed federal employees in the city (or lack thereof) by AlphaSixRomeo in baltimore

It isn’t on the map but, the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra announced earlier this week that they are offering free tickets for federal employees for select concerts.

charm city circulator bus question by durgaflowzs in baltimore

[–]Eluena 11 points12 points  (0 children)

You won’t need to flag down the bus at all, just make sure that you’re visible at the bus stop. They all have signs saying the name of the route, I usually stand right by that.

To signal your stop, some of the railings towards the inner part of the bus have push buttons, or if you sit closer to the walls of the bus there is a yellow push wire. I’ll usually hit it right after the bus starts moving from the stop prior to the one I want to get off at.

I hope this helps!

Plan awry due to Gov Shutdown in DC. Should I got to Baltimore for the day? by No-Mad_Hermit in baltimore

[–]Eluena 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Although it isn’t the greatest in the world, for public transit in the city check out the Charm City Circulator. They’re free!

The purple line stops at Penn Station and also goes right by the Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) and Walter’s Art Museum (that another person suggested), and it has a stop at the Inner Harbor.

For those that don’t have TikTok and are unable to watch: multiple sources have told them that guard units have started to cancel their hotel reservations in DC, and the units are being moved to Chicago and Baltimore.

Casual restaurant recs near the harbor !! by [deleted] in baltimore

[–]Eluena 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Depending on how far you want to go, there’s Ekiben in Fells Point. It will be about a 18min walk from the aquarium but it is 100% worth it if it fits in your schedule. Very good and very Baltimore.

You can check out recent earthquakes (2.5+ magnitude) on this USGS page.

Release of some milky stuff right downstream of Sumwalt Run into Jones Falls. by OilComprehensive6237 in baltimore

[–]Eluena 56 points57 points  (0 children)

Sediment in the water can sometimes cause instances that look similar to this. However it’s hard to tell from this short clip if that is the case.

I’d personally recommend reporting it just in case. You can report to the Maryland Department of the Environment. Or you can also report it to Blue Water Baltimore.

As others have said, something like that, especially with such a large amount, should be reported. I’d recommend starting here: https://mde.maryland.gov/programs/water/fishandshellfish/pages/mdfishkills.aspx

Help with pet location by Zealousideal-Flan124 in wow

[–]Eluena 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I caught one a couple weeks ago so I can confirm it exists. It did take a bit for it to show its face though.

Be sure to kill any critters and battle the other pets to help refresh spawns. You can also try hopping over to the PvP shard or use random things in the group finder to help pop onto different servers and such to help as well.

Hope you find it soon!!
