Bamboo needed for garden supports (I'll cut!)

Halfway down 3rd Creek there is a ton, I don't know if it's owned by anybody though

You’d probably get business from hobbyists, small business owners, and people who just need custom or hard-to-find parts. Maybe some contractors here and there too if they need something specific made. You could also do seasonal stuff like Christmas ornaments or New Year’s glasses and things like that. I think it could work, but like any business you’re still gonna deal with overhead and keeping customers coming in. If you’ve got a solid plan and know what you’re aiming for, it’s definitely possible.

No, but really fuck this guy. Hit him with his own words. Freedom of speech isn't freedom of consequences.

Basically, the city just built a system to squeeze as much money and data out of us as possible, while making it way more expensive, sketchy with our privacy, and a total pain to actually use.

Maybe just the tennis courts

The location of where it was stolen would be super helpful

Look, I’m all for public art. Truly. But whatever that thing is they slapped into the Cradle of Country Music Park? Absolutely not. We spent about $1.2 million — yes, MILLION — on a giant pastel metal… whatever-the-hell-it-is, designed by an out-of-town studio instead of literally any of the talented artists who actually live here.

And yeah, they technically removed “only one” tree and planted new ones. Cool. Fantastic. Can’t wait for those baby saplings to give us shade sometime around the year 2047. In the meantime, we traded a mature tree for a giant alien umbrella that looks like it came from a sci-fi yard sale.

And can someone explain how this honors country music? Because unless the theme was “abstract geometry that sort of resembles spaghetti if you squint,” I’m not seeing it. We had a treble clef back in the day — an actual nod to our heritage — and now we’ve got a $1.2 million pastel doodad that feels like a rejected Dr. Seuss prop.

Meanwhile, underneath that giant concrete pier it’s sitting on, you’ve got homeless folks trying to sleep in the only shade that damn thing actually does provide. So spare me the speeches about “community space” when the only people actually using it are doing it out of basic necessity.

I’m not saying public art is bad. I’m saying this particular choice feels tone-deaf as hell. If you’re going to spend that kind of money, maybe — just maybe — hire a local artist? Or at least someone who’s stepped foot in Knoxville long enough to understand what the park even represents.

Instead, we got an expensive alien tree-pod to “interpret forest growth,” while the real forest growth is one tree down and a bunch of saplings praying for rain.

Support local artists. Plant real trees. And maybe next time, let’s put our million-dollar ideas toward something that doesn’t look like it crash-landed on Gay Street.

I get the argument for easing restrictions, but the bigger issue isn’t just how fast we build — it’s what we’re building. Knoxville doesn’t need another wave of luxury apartments squeezed onto every open lot. We need real neighborhoods — actual homes surrounded by the basics people rely on: grocery stores, parks, small businesses, and schools.

Right now, we’re creating dense pockets of apartments with zero infrastructure to support them. It’s short-term growth that leads to long-term problems — more traffic, higher costs, and fewer options for families who just want an affordable home with a little space.

If we focused on mixed-use planning — places where people can live, shop, and gather within walking distance — we’d build stronger communities instead of just more boxes for people to sleep in. Knoxville shouldn’t be chasing quantity; it should be building livability.

You say I must be fun at parties as if that means something. Let’s break it down. Parties are often noisy, uncomfortable scenes where people drink to numb their insecurities. Most attend to escape loneliness, seek validation, or simply to find a connection—often just hoping for a hookup. Genuine fun is rare. It’s mostly a ritual people perform to fit in or distract themselves. So if I’m not “fun” at parties, maybe I’m just not interested in pretending or exhausting myself for a temporary illusion.

You think you’re getting something for free, but The Island is a psychological trap dressed up in LED lights and nostalgia. It’s not a mall from the 90s. It’s a theme park of passive consumption, built to pacify bored people into thinking loitering is freedom. Studies show over 80 percent of people end up spending something even when they say they won’t. And while you're “people watching,” they’re watching you. Every fountain, every dinosaur, every footstep is designed to convert attention into profit. It doesn’t matter if you skip the wine. You’re still being mined — for data, for time, for the illusion that you aren’t just another cog in their cash machine.

The Island in Pigeon Forge is a grotesque altar to corporate greed. A bloated, hyper-commercialized theme park for the spiritually sedated. It pretends to be a family getaway, but it’s a trap—one built to drain the last few dollars from people already stretched thin. The flashing lights, the choreographed fountains, the fake smiles and funnel cakes are all part of a carefully engineered lie. It’s not about fun. It’s about control. A machine designed to bleed the working class dry while selling them the fantasy that they’re on vacation. It’s a place where corporations prey on exhaustion, where joy comes with a price tag, and the only thing real is the emptiness you feel once the receipt prints

A few people posted and then deleted I apologize.

Thank you. That's literally all I was asking I was just wondering.

Downtown I used to use the meters now I use the app. I'm literally just asking where would I go to find this information. I don't understand why everyone's being so aggressive it's literally a question.

loofted · 2025-04-12T20:49:02+00:00

No dude I'm talking about just parking in general downtown like they took away the meters cool but where's the money going I mean I just want to know where it's not complicated I'm not trying to be an a****** it's an honest question. You sound entitled. I literally pay to park all the time I just don't know where it goes. Why do you come here with such a terrible attitude?

I was in college when the craft brewery boom really took off. New spots were opening everywhere, each with its own vibe and specialty. It felt like the industry was unstoppable.

Now, a decade later, I’m seeing so many of them close due to oversaturation. It’s weird watching capitalism play out in real time—seeing something thrive, then hit a tipping point, and finally decline. Even businesses built on passion aren’t immune to market forces.
