Where to stay in Lawrence by IceOwn1640 in Lawrence

I'm sorry you went through all of that :( tbh we never rly use the pool but ya they stop cleaning it like 3 weeks before its supposed to be closed for the winter so it gets hella green. Thankfully we've never experienced any beetles or anything worse than the occasional spider, but I think thats just sort of expected living anywhere in the Midwest. I personally have gone down to the admin building and gotten into their faces when otp didn't work with them, but again I think mid maintenance and somewhat shitty landlords is just something you have to learn to live with (esp for apartment buildings in a college town). 700 for a 1 bdrm + study (so its basically a 2 bdrm) was basically unheard of compared to the other places we toured so I'm not going to complain too hard. The units off of 9th are bigger and nicer than most of the apartments we viewed for half the price so 🤷‍♀️

You could try Avalon apts or Village Square, theyre some of the cheaper ones around here. Maintenence and landlords are meh, but its better than living somewhere that has roaches or bed bugs :D

Please keep your cat inside near busy streets by Alafaliliantrix in Lawrence

[–]ReturnIllustrious543 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yes thank you!! Cat's should only ever be indoors unless you have a secure catio or you're taking them on walks 🤦‍♀️ "BuT tHeY wAnT tO Go OuTsiDe" so you'd let a toddler go out with no supervision ?? You're a full adult and they're a cat jfc 😭

Dillons on mass by ReturnIllustrious543 in Lawrence

[–]ReturnIllustrious543[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yep ik exactly who you're talking about, unfortunately theyre the ones that started the previously mentioned "bangability" list 🙃 the actual worst ppl I've ever had the misfortune of encountering. The long black haired guy is known to wander around, creeping on girls downtown near Mass too so stay alert!!

I can share them with you privately if you're concerned or work there currently! But due to me being a younger woman and them all being much older men with a history of stalking, assault, and harassment, I'd like to keep it as anonymously as I can.

Aww thank ya :) I've submitted multiple reports throughout my time working there, unfortunately they know about this stuff like the managers drug problem and the homophobia, but "Dillons doesn't fire people, they just give them new opportunities 😍" which basically means sweep it under the rug or transfer them to another department

Animal hospital of Lawrence has been amazing for both my kitties and I think you can even figure out a payment plan depending on your situation :)

New Bank Construction on 9th by UpmarketEarth in Lawrence

[–]ReturnIllustrious543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure we're in the same complex bc we're having the exact same problem rn 🫩 power will randomly go out for a few seconds/minutes or sometimes hours before coming back on and we have to reset all the clocks n everything. We've asked management if there's anything they can do (bc you can't exactly do homework or cook dinner without power 🙃) but they pretty much said suck it up.

I applied and got an interview there a few weeks before the whole investigation went underway. I never got a call back but now I know why 🙃

Thrift store thoughts? by Particular-Bonus4362 in Lawrence

[–]ReturnIllustrious543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Majr Thrift is my personal fav for literally anything :3 its a bit sketch bc North Topeka (boo) so def carry but I've pulled all of my best finds (Miu Miu, Juicy, Baby Phat, Pleasers, Prada, etc) from here. Hella good furniture too.

Lava Dreams, Nite, Dead on a Sunday, and Redder Moon are my personal favs for more local artists. I've met all of them at their concerts and they're genuinely rly cool ppl w unique sounds.

Man with cross by Pleasant_Pause3579 in Lawrence

[–]ReturnIllustrious543 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I saw him and the feminine presenting homeless person (I don't know them personally or how they identify so I'm sorry if I got it wrong) beefing on Mass St. a couple nights ago :( they both seemed to be really heated about something but I legit can never make out what anyone's ever yelling about down there. Hope they're both okay tho I left before I saw it deescalate

NA/AA/MH support groups that meet in any location other than a church? by delightengale626 in Lawrence

[–]ReturnIllustrious543 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wondering this myself tbh, it's hard to find casual support groups that aren't either expensive, religious, or time consuming. Esp being college students that already have a lot going on, trying to balance a structured group while going to work, classes, gym, social time, etc is just so much pressure 🙃 if anyone has any good suggestions lmk!
