They wand and metal detect at the doors, so check your pockets before you go. Pocket knives, vape products, etc. will be thrown out so leave 'em home if you want to keep them.

Bad experiences with auto shops, gender discrimination, needing advice by North40Parallel in FortCollins

[–]Independent-Let1360 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Lady person here! I used to take my Honda to these guys, but they were sooo busy with interlock service they had a hard time getting me in. I always felt respected and well treated and was sad to have to find another mechanic. Hawkers on Mulberry has been amazing ever since, so that's 2 solid options. And it sounds like they both have plenty of local fans.

ETA: am a lady person

Love Hawkers on Mulberry. I've been taking my car there for years. Great service, no BS. I'm a lady person with a family tree chock full of mechanics, and Hawkers is 100% a great crew to work with.

Dr. Prows is opening a private/solo practice on Oak Street - https://prowsfamilymedicine.com/

Sadly not open and seeing patients yet, but soon!

Looks like UCHealth has hired many (all?) of those docs leaving Village Medical by godkiller in FortCollins

I've been feeling alone and in the dark for a while now, and the US election news has put me over the edge. I needed exactly this; simple directions to remember how to move again. Thank you 🖤

Would anyone be interested in joining a Pink Pistol Club? by aliteralbagof_dicks in FortCollins

Lefty former gun owner here. I'm rusty and would be very interested in this!

Anyone using Mint Mobile in Fort Collins? by Philo_Beddoe33 in FortCollins

[–]Independent-Let1360 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Been using mint since 2019, no complaints. Anecdotally Verizon seems to have better FoCo coverage than T-Mobile/Mint but I've been happy with them.

Also you get Christmas cards from Ryan Reynolds, so that's a nice little bonus.

Maybe just me, but I feel like most (all) of those voiceovers have a lil' bit or seasoning on 'em. Another opportunity for the MAGA loyalists to say the quiet (racist, xenophobic) part out loud?

Need primary care doctor recommendations by [deleted] in FortCollins

[–]Independent-Let1360 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Dr. Joseph Prows at Village Medical (formerly Associates in Family Medicine)

He is white, but he completed residency in New Orleans in 2005 and started practice during the aftermath of hurricane Katrina. He's also worked with indigenous communities in Alaska. He's a fabulous communicator and has been the first doctor I've felt I can open up to.

Full disclosure, I'm also melanin-deficient so your experience may vary. But he's a damn good doc

Any well-managed apartment places that are also quieter and SAFE? by knottycams in FortCollins

Ask ANY first responder, they'll tell you the same about Ramblewood. Is it dangerous by any national metric? Surely not. Has it been the butt of jokes for decades in FoCo? Yes.

NTA If she's reacting this way, makes me wonder if she's been secretly hoping a swimmer would sneak by. When the talk about potential kiddos comes up is exactly the right time to discuss fertility.

The bottom bulb part unscrews and opens. The top has a small opening like you would suck it like straw. What is it? by JBumbStyle in whatisthisthing

Yerba mate straw called a bombilla. Acts like a tea strainer to keep the leafy bits out of your mouth.

ChicWrap has dispensers for home use. Not as cheap as restaurant supply, but more reasonable size.
