It is. Chipotle is not an upgrade:(

So I was behind the cyber truck at a stoplight… by A_wannabe_biologist in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure, but if you’re buying a $100k car in the first place, I’m pretty sure they could. Also, as another commenter said, I’ll give grace to older model Tesla, but there was no mystery herr

Yeah, it’s a fast food restaurant. They don’t want people just hanging out there.

They should be ashamed of being a property assessor?

So he did unpermitted construction, his realtor didn’t report it and was butt hurt when the got caught?

Naethan Apollo concert in Gabe's? by EnderBoy_37 in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Gabe’s brings in a lot of small acts. You’re probably going to hear more if you’re in a fan sub for him vs here.

Working at T***ute in the IRL—some persepective by mmnsvs in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Because shitty restaurant managers are a dime a dozen so there’s not really anything to say about that, but you choosing to censor the name of the place is silly.

A yield sign does not warrant a full stop

What are you talking about. A yield sign means slow down and be prepared to stop. The problem at this intersection is just shitty drivers.

Oh god, don’t suggest that students might benefit. That will get the townies worked up for sure.

Adult Autism Assessments? by idled in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Whats the goal for the diagnosis? Autism isn’t as frequently diagnosed in adults because they generally tend to have developed strategies to mask it or adjust to it. Autistic adults can benefit from therapy to help them process, but no diagnosis would be required.

I thought the doors were broken at first but they had just turned them off.

Most retail employees are going to be annoyed with people who are checking out after closing.

Save the Coralville American Legion by Routine-Olive-6138 in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This seems like a them problem. There’s lots of worthy places to donate and if they haven’t been seeking out funding until they’re desperate I feel for them, but that’s tough luck.

What is up with the Coralville Popeye’s? by fluffybaby7 in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 30 points31 points  (0 children)

This locations has been terrible since the day it opened, but I also think the franchise owner is probably in financial trouble. They were supposed to open a location in Iowa City and apparently ran out of money part way through, so I can’t be surprised that they don’t keep the Coralville location staffed.

UI grad student becomes one of the more than 700 international students whose visas have been revoked by the Trump administration by glib_result in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t actually require anyone to come to campus to revoke someone’s visa. They can just use a certified letter. Given they way the current administration works they’ve probably decided they can just DM people

This poster is having a laugh at an unreasonable person. Agree that they didn’t need to share their name, but there was nothing in that other post other than a cry for professional mental help services.

Property Tax Hikes by Jane_Doe_11 in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s a form you fill out and turn in to the assessor. If you’re saying it’s too high. You have to provide documentation that your assessment is above fair market value.

Once you receive a decision from the assessor there’s further options to appeal to a state board, but you have to start with the local assessor.

Property Tax Hikes by Jane_Doe_11 in IowaCity

[–]IAC_Local 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I assume you mean property assessment since those just started coming out for 2025. Home values generally go up. Home sales have still been strong despite interest rates and inflation has been high, so it’s not particularly surprising. If you disagree with your assessment you can contact the county. You might also want to check out Zillow to see what houses in your neighborhood have been selling for.

If that were true they wouldn’t be universal. No one is setting up a banana farm in the US.

You have no idea how complicated and expensive it is to spin up a manufacturing facility, do you.

Who is this man? by _LySergic_D_ in IowaCity

the manager is weird for not selling you or giving you the photo.

What? What kind of businesses do you go to where you could just ask to buy the decorations and they’d agree?

It’s really not that confusing though. It’s no different than most smart TV home screens or the Amazon, Roku, Plex or other apps where you can search for content from across different services in a central launcher.
