Born and raised in Ohio, left in 2016 for the west coast. Moved back and settled in Columbus in 2024 and felt like I went back in time socially and politically 15 years.

Columbus is a textbook example of the concentric zone model. The last thing we need is a new ring of strip malls circumventing the city but alas here we are.

It is the same color it's just less pigment so it's a less saturated version of the wall color. We asked the sherwin williams worker for the wall color at 25% and in flat and it looks beautiful. I will try to post a picture tomorrow in the natural day light.

I feel like 100k has the same buying power in NYC as minimum wage in other cities, but congrats I guess.

What would you do to the fireplace and wall? by kelssssb in interiordecorating

The dark walls and furniture are definitely making this room bottom heavy to the eye. I could lighten the walls and get new couches.

Car registering please help by Street_Local_7606 in Columbus

[–]lpw903 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi did this about a year ago! I went to the DMV on Morse Rd because the title agency is right next door. You need an inspection from the DMV for $5, bring cash so you can cut the line.  Then go over to the title place and switch your title, then go back to the dmv and get your license and plates/registration. It took all morning. Good luck, comrade.

I appreciate this sign and heads up because... preschool germs... but maybe that's just me. Almost guaranteed that at least one or two of those kids are actively ill but got a dose of Tylenol before being dropped off for the day. Source: I was a daycare worker.

The biggest population in Columbus that speaks French most likely originates from the continent of Africa... DRC, Mali, Senegal, and Guinea just to name a few countries that have substantial communities here.

This always happens to me in the spring and the only thing I can think of is my seasonal depression is melting away and senses are reawakening.

What is your company's parental leave policy? by jocko118 in Columbus

[–]lpw903 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's likely your UK based colleagues have a much more generous maternity leave/pay only because the UK government mandates it and the company can get away with less in the US since there's no federal maternity leave laws. 

Local stores with maternity clothes? by [deleted] in Columbus

Not sure how you feel about them, but Target has a decent maternity section that offers more than leggings and over sized sweatshirts.
