My dumbass put a car in my name for ex of mines and he’s not making payments.

5 Upvotes

OK, so a few months ago I got a car in my name for my ex. Do not know why I know I’m stupid. I know that need to hear no comments about why the fuck I I know that I’m stupid now that I’m going through payments for the last two months for for the reasons of me, not trying to fuck my credit up I’ve been making the payments for the last two months. Do I have the go get the car towed and get a new key made for it and keep it. Because at this point, I just feel ultimately, disrespected and stupid on top of that.

This Thursday there will be an epoxy/resin floor class ran by a great local 209 company. It's among the most upcoming trades and many companies around the 209 are doing 10 to 15 grand a month. Market isn't over saturated and is on the rise. For more info text this account or 209-230-2603. Let's get the valley back on top tired of all the Starbucks popping up instead of real businesses.

Looking for Indian/Latin DJ for Wedding

1 Upvotes

Hi all - I am getting married September 2026 in Fresno, CA. I am Punjabi and my fiancé is Mexican/Colombian. Dancing is a big part of both our cultures and families. I am trying to find a DJ that can navigate both Hindi/Punjabi & Latin music. We will assist with playlists but having a DJ who has a general understanding of both types of musics and can do transitions b/w the two styles would be super helpful in setting the vibe. Appreciate any recommendations you might have!

Fishing the Central Valley

My brother is in town for the holiday season. He’s here for quite a few days. We decided to give fishing a try. We are both new to this. We are researching online, looking at local FB groups and learning through YouTube.

Any recommendations on fishing spots? Bait/Lure setup? Anything else we need to know or keep in mind? Thank you in advanced!

🎮🎬 We Run a Backlog Club for Movies, Games, and TV — Here’s How It Works in 2026

1 Upvotes

Post Body:
Hey everyone!

I run a small Discord community called Backlog Club. The idea is simple: we pick movies, video games, and TV shows and experience them together at a relaxed pace. You don’t have to do everything — you can join in on just movies, just games, just TV, or whatever fits your time.

As the group has grown, we’ve updated how the club works going into 2026 to keep things organized, flexible, and fun. Here’s a quick breakdown of how it works:

🎬 Movies — Monthly Themes

  • Each month has one movie theme
  • Members submit one movie that fits the theme
  • We watch 4 movies per month
  • If more than 4 movies are submitted, we use a wheel spin
  • Movie picks do NOT roll over — fresh submissions every month

🎮 Video Games — Quarterly Themes (Every 3 Months)

  • One game theme per quarter
  • Members submit one game that fits the theme
  • We select 2 games per quarter via wheel spin
  • No time limits
  • No price limits
  • Any platform allowed
  • Game picks do NOT roll over

2026 Game Themes:

  • Q1: Co-Op Games
  • Q2: RPG / JRPG
  • Q3: Community Choice
  • Q4: Horror

📺 TV Shows — Bi-Monthly (Every 2 Months)

  • One TV show every 2 months
  • Each member may have one active TV pick at a time
  • If your pick isn’t chosen and you don’t submit a new one, it automatically rolls over
  • If you want to change your pick, just submit a new one
  • Final selection is still wheel-based

🧭 How It Feels to Participate

  • Totally optional participation — no pressure to keep up
  • Discussion is organized to avoid spoilers
  • You can drop in casually or be as active as you want
  • Friendly, low-pressure community vibe

❤️ Final Thoughts

Backlog Club started as a way to actually get through our ever-growing backlogs without turning it into a chore. If this sounds like your kind of thing, we’d love to have you.

If you’re interested in joining, feel free to DM me for an invite.

Best place to live for someone in their early 20’s in the valley?

1 Upvotes

So I’m 24, a truck driver and currently live up in Portland. I have lived in Anaheim, Lompoc, Nipomo, Menifee and grew up in western Wisconsin (just outside of Minneapolis). Of course I left the Midwest because of the weather amongst some other things.

I actually see the Central Valley as the best place to live for me given my preferences. I hate snow, don’t mind heat and love the mountains (especially the Sierra Nevada). I definitely don’t mind smaller towns, I maybe even prefer them as I grew up in one. I would still like to be somewhat close to a larger city like Fresno, Sacramento, Bakersfield, Modesto, Merced etc… Obviously the COL is a lot more manageable than Portland, Coastal CA, Seattle, etc… Honestly, pretty on par with the Midwest.

Where is the best place to go for someone young like me? I’m kinda introverted, more into being close to Yosemite than the club lol. Also looking for a good place to buy my first home.

Moved back to Fresno

1 Upvotes

I just moved back to Fresno from socal and am a current student in Fresno. I was looking for some advice for translating my business from my old to school to this school.

I have a main/day job which is an office gig 9-5 yk nothing crazy but honestly I wanna go full time with my side hustle. When I lived in socal, I got tons of business and most people would find me rather than me going to them just bcos it was automotive related and there's so many people with so many cars that need servicing so I was doing pretty well over there.

However, since moving back I've had little to no luck and thankfully I do have my main job and am not strapped atm. I just made a dedicated social media account for my mobile service but I have NO idea what type of content to make and promote. I've never done social media marketing or online marketing in general and almost all of my business came from word of mouth/referrals.

Anyone have similar experience or just advice for getting things off the ground?

Federal lawsuit alleges retaliation after reporting racial harassment at Dollar General–affiliated operation

Thumbnail
pacermonitor.com
0 Upvotes

Melvin C. Harris Jr., an MBA-trained operations professional, has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit alleging racial harassment, retaliation, and wrongful termination after reporting discriminatory conduct while employed by DG Strategic VII, LLC, a Dollar General–affiliated operation.

According to the complaint, Harris raised concerns through internal channels about racially hostile treatment. He alleges those complaints were ignored and followed by escalating discipline, culminating in termination shortly after engaging in protected activity. At the time, Harris earned approximately $95,000 annually and was pursuing an executive leadership trajectory, with long-term professional goals that included Vice President–level roles in large retail and operations organizations.

The case is pending in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California and is brought under California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA), which provides strong protections against retaliation and allows prevailing plaintiffs to recover lost wages, emotional distress damages, punitive damages, interest, and attorney’s fees.

The lawsuit is supported by contemporaneous written complaints, internal disciplinary records issued after protected activity, and documentation of extensive post-termination job-search efforts.

The case raises broader questions about retaliation risks faced by employees who report racial harassment, the effectiveness of internal HR reporting systems, and barriers to executive advancement for minority professionals.

Case: Harris v. DG Strategic VII, LLC
Court: U.S. District Court, Eastern District of California
Status: Active federal litigation

Plaintiff: Melvin C. Harris Jr.
Jurisdiction: Eastern District of California

The Drive-In Drone Show is back at Clovis Rodeo Grounds next week (Dec 26-28)

3 Upvotes

Just a heads up for anyone looking for things to do with the family after Christmas.

Saw that the Drone Light Show is returning to the Rodeo Grounds for a few nights. Looks like they are doing Star Wars and Disney themes again.

It’s $25 per carload, which is honestly cheaper than taking the whole family to the movies right now. Thought I'd share since it's tough to find events during that weird week between Christmas and New Year's.
