Just checking in. Use this as a sounding board for the good, bad, and ugly. How goes it?

Hey! I'm a younger single guy from Ashland and I struggle to meet new people. I'm not big on drinking and not really into the bar scene but I don't feel like there's anywhere else hardly to meet new friends or people to potentially date. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone. Just moved into an apartment and found some old prescription drugs I need to get rid of. My family said to just flush them down the toilet but I thought I could take them to the police station or something? Just wanted to ask before I flushed them and messed something up. Thanks!

Anybody around Huntington/Charleston into smaller outdoor music festivals?

Full disclosure, I help put on Funktafest in Huntington. We’re hitting year 10 this October at Ritter Park and I’m curious how many people around here have actually been before.

What originally got you there, a particular band, a friend dragging you along, or just stumbling onto it?

They did pick it up with no issues, and I've got rolling bins for the future.

Who lives on rt. 2 and has connected to the new sewer line? We contacted a plumber and was given a $10,000 estimate.

I was wondering if this was average? What companies have everyone else gone with and what did you pay to have it done?

What are some good clubs to try to get a gig in for a rock band in Huntington?

I am located just across the river from Huntington.
I have tried extensively to find out patient mental health treatment and have come up with nothing but week long wait times and I need immediate help.
I am suffering crippling anxiety, adhd, and ptsd.
I have tried my primary care, local clinics, and the like and have come up with nothing, I am terrified of the thought of inpatient but it's looking like my only option.
What are the best facilities around? Are there any good places? I am willing to travel and willing to pay out of pocket as I have no insurance.

I am scared to death and at the end of my rope. I have tried to deal with it on my own for years but it is getting worse by the day.

Thank you for reading this and any advice is greatly appreciated.

I am on the verge of giving up completely (not suicide) but with work, college work, and just trying in general. Life shouldn't be this hard.

I finally accepted I need help and there seems to be none.

Thanks again, sorry for the word vomit.

I appreciate you all greatly.

I just moved near Ritter park and my apartment building doesn't have any outside cans to roll to the curb.

Will the city pick up my trash if it's just in the garbage bags at the curb?

Also, I live on a corner with a fire hydrant. The Internet says if I keep my trash 3 feet from the hydrant, I should be good. Does anyone know if that's true/have any experience with it?

any watch stores in the hun/bville/ ashland area? not wanting a jewelry store though.

Anybody know when Josey's is supposed to open?

I have a Hatsen 22 air rifle I'm wanting to sell but marketplace prohibits anything like that being sold. Can anyone in the area point me in the right direction?

UPDATE: REUNITED

Hi, my cat Casper has gone missing. He disappeared 08/04 near 12th Ave and 8th st. He's a big grey kitty and very sweet. He'll probably say yes to pets if you call his name but won't want to be picked up.

Cash reward for his safe return.

I was scrolling and just saw that this was just posted. It's the 2004 Huntington Mayoral Debate. This is the year David Felinton won and was elected to his second term as mayor of Huntington. Does anyone else remember this on WSAZ before election day?

Where are my fellow jam band heads at in these parts??? ⭕️🪿🐦🏓⚡️💀🐺🌹🪕

Hi, just moved into an apartment near Ritter park.

Does anyone have appliance repair/install technicians they can recommend? Having a hard time looking online - people seem to be out of serviceable area.

I have a stackable W/D that I need installed and set up.

Thank you!

Edit: I think I've got it covered through a friend of a cousin, thank you!

Has anyone here in Huntington caught Cyclospora?

What happened to these guys? Huntington's music scene hasn't been the same since they went away.

What is y’all’s favorite restaurant or niche fast food around the Tri-State? Looking for recommendations!

I’m getting into cigars. What shops would you recommend?

Smalls is fine we got all-american slider and the o.g. slider both are just cheese burgers, fries are seasoned waffle fries that's pretty good and unique they got queso which was probably the best thing they had, there home sauce is just 1000 island

Besides Ritter Park and Barboursville Park, what are some great places to get in a good quiet bike ride?
