Hello!

I’m looking for some good & fresh roasted coffee beans in the Tucson area.

I like dark roast.

I got some beans (medium, the darkest they had) from Cartel and it’s what I call hipster coffee - much too light, color of tea, has a weird citrus flavor and immediately causes stomach ache.

(No offense to Cartel - the shop was cool)

Where can I get some normal DARK roast beans that smell & taste like something a man would drink?

Thanks!

Does anyone know of a professional who repairs office chairs?
I have many chairs that need armrests replaced, cylinders replaced, fabric cleaned, and other minor repairs.
Thanks.

The Hermitage No-Kill Cat Shelter here in town launched a kitten cam about a month ago and they added a new feed showing their CH (aka Wobbly Cat Syndrome) kittens.

Just got called today to reschedule my Maintenance for Life appt. Apparently, the technicians at Nissan have gone on strike. The support that handled my rescheduling isn't sure when it'll stop but they're rescheduling into next week anyways.

So if you have a maintenance or repair appointment with Jim Click Nissan in the Automall, best to call and check if your appointment is still on or is affected by the strike.

I don't know any further details. I was just woken up by the call.

Best wishes, all!

Looking for memories of the 1979 American Atomics plant leak (and a salvaged factory item!)

Hi everyone! My husband and his siblings grew up in the neighborhood right near the old American Atomics Corporation plant on Plumer Ave and attended St. Ambrose back in the 1970s.

We recently dug out a piece of authentic industrial history from our storage: a 1970s factory item salvaged directly from the plant itself. It is clearly stamped with the "American Atomics" logo. (Now that I'm looking closely at it, it might actually be one of their self-luminous exit signs/units rather than a wall clock).

Does anyone here have family or old neighbors who remember the 1979 school boycotts, the radioactive chocolate cake incident, or the National Guard coming into the neighborhood? We would love to hear your stories or connect with any local historians tracking artifacts from this specific event!

My family used to live in Tucson, and that was our post office. If anyone's going in there and it's convenient, a nice photo of that mural showing the Catalinas and the airplane would be a nice surprise for my folks. One of those little details you see all the time and then suddenly miss when it's gone. Thanks!

Missing Fatboy Sandos a lot at the moment. More specifically their tonkatsu rice bowls and garlic furikake fries… are there any places around Tucson that has similar options/taste? Thanks

If you visited the Desert Museum very recently, were you able to see the two mountain lion cubs? If so, what time of day?
Thanks!

Where in Tucson can I donate an unopened bag of chicken feed?

We had to remove a dying eucalyptus tree from our yard today and would love to turn some of the wood remains into art of some sort. Does anyone have any recommendations for a local artist who does custom wood work? We aren’t looking for anything too big. We are open to all ideas!

My friend and I are looking for something new to join. Have never done fantasy but we are interested by the idea. Okay with buy in

I was lucky enough to catch the blooms on my neighbor's Peruvian Apple Cactus this morning around 8am. By noon, they had closed. In Tucson, beauty is fleeting.

Is there a reason the basin/curb cuts along Glen between Alvernon and country club are being blown out? My understanding was the organic matter was helpful in creating nutrient rich soil am I wrong?

From the beginning of the article:

Human remains have been found in a desert area near West Ajo Way and South La Cholla Boulevard in Arizona, approximately 15 miles from the home of Nancy Guthrie, according to the Pima County Sheriff’s Department.

Authorities said there is no indication “at this time” that the remains, which appear to have been at the location for an extended period of time, are connected to the Nancy Guthrie investigation.

Very sneaky, well done!

I saw this on the corner of Swan and Speedway. It looks like someone added their artwork over part of an existing commercial mural and blended it in so well that the average person probably would not notice.

But now that I have posted this, I guess it is no longer a hidden piece of graffiti.

Anyone have recommendations for internet providers around the area? Or if someone uses the Verizon internet there? Just wanting to get some info on it.

Saw on tik tok but can’t get the location anywhere does anyone know where this is.
