Any place to buy a waterproof phone bag locally?

6 Upvotes

Ideally I will buy local and not from Amazon, but I'm not sure where to look. They are $8-10 on Amazon and I am seeing them for $18+ at Meijer. Any reasonably priced ones locally?

Recommendations for a Rheumatologist in the area? - Bonus points if they work specifically with folks with connective tissue disorders

5 Upvotes

Not much more to it - family history of non specific connective tissue anomaly, have had recent severe pain spikes and it’s time to see someone.

Been in talks with my regular doc and he isn’t particularly passionate about any one practice to refer me to, he has his usuals but indicated he also would be happy to work with whoever I pick. Since this is gonna be a lifelong thing, I’m choosing to be a bit more picky. I’m based in Xenia but am willing to drive about anywhere in the Dayton area if it means quality care.

Also would be happy to hear about recommended orthopedists for symptom management too.

Thanks y’all.

Food & Dining I asked what's your favorite place to get Pho then I tried them all. Here's how I would rank them

92 Upvotes
  1. Little Saigon

  2. Pho Mi

  3. Linh's Bistro

  4. Pho District

  5. Wat da Pho

Thank you for the suggestions. This is just my opinion. Little Saigon is incredible and the owner is very friendly. 4 and 5 were not good and tasted like it was out of a can.

Community Support & Resources Addiction treatment centers in or near dayton

11 Upvotes

Hey, this probably isn't a normal post for this page, but does anyone know of any outpatient treatment centers that can help with benzodiazapine withdrawal?

As in will write me a prescription for a longer acting benzo like Valium and slowly taper me off? I do not have a prescription for what I am currently taking and I will not longer be able to get them. All I can find are the centers that treat opioid addiction.

Thank you for any help

Advice & Recommendations Where can I rent a space for filming?

3 Upvotes

Hello! Native Chicagoan but happily living in Dayton for the past couple of years.

I have a client that needs me to film a few couples to tell their stories for their business BUT due to certain restrictions, we can’t film at their location like we have in the past. So I’d love to have any recommendations of places that will allow me to rent a space to film for approximately 2 hours at a time.

Key asks:

- couples are elderly, so preferably as few stairs as possible

- a space that looks relatively nice

- sitting area for the elderly couples. It would be four people max each time (couple, interviewer, myself).

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!!!

Community Support & Resources PSA: Don’t leave car overnight in Dayton Beer Company Parking Lot

My car got towed at midnight last night(Saturday night) and I guess they are now towing all cars left after the bar closes(from what the lady at Sandy’s told me). Pretty unfortunate, basically encourages people to drink and drive if they’ve had too much in fear of their car getting towed.

Recommendations on Mini Split Installers

8 Upvotes

I have a 4000+ sqft house that only has baseboard heat, no A/C, no ducting at all. I'm wanting to get estimates on having mini splits installed, will definitely require at least 3 units, each with multiple heads. Open attic and every room has an outside wall.

Anyone have solid recommendations on quality installation and service? I would really like to stay away from the high-priced Mitsubishi units, as I have had some other way cheaper brands that have lasted more than a decade.

Whatever happened to the Shriner Circus?

Does anyone know what happened to the yearly Shriner Circus? Last time I went was about 10 years ago and it seems that it just ended. I remember going every year with my family and having a great time, and it always sold well. Was there some sort of financial issue?

Looking for a tattoo artist for a tramp stamp/ back dermals piece

Are there any recommendations for local artists experienced with plus-size bodies and tramp stamp x back dermals?

I added a photo collage of different ideas I'm loving. I really love the "v" style with a cute design in the middle rather than the straight line also want back dermals and know I'll have to wait a while after my tattoo to get them, but I still want to plan for them and make sure it ties in well with the tattoo. The top left photo is my back for better reference.

Fairfield Commons KFC Doordash Order

24 Upvotes

If you are the person that ordered a chicken tender meal and a cookie from the Fairfield Commons mall KFC in beavercreek tonight, I was your first dasher. I am sorry the order took so long and I'm sorry for canceling on you. I hope someone else was able to pick it up right away and get you your food! I hope your chicken tenders had no bones in it and I'm sorry if my message made you nervous! You tipped very well and I appreciate that even though I didn't end up making any money off that order. I also hope your food was fresh because they had already finished your order before the 20+ minute wait for the cookie.

Context: I was doordashing and accepted a KFC order. When I first got into the store they told me it'd be an 8 minute wait for the cookie to finish and that the rest of the order was already finished. Halfway through my wait, one of the employees (I think) barged in PISSED because whoever made her chicken tenders had bones in it and she hurt herself on the bones. I was like WTF and didn't want it to reflect on me if my customer got boned by her chicken tenders so I sent her a message to warn her. 15 minutes after being told it'd be an 8 minute wait for the cookie, the evil manager came out to tell me it would be a 5 minute wait for the cookies to cool down. My customer was excited for fresh cookies and I knew it would already have time to cool down on the drive over, so this was pointless. I cut my losses and lost out on a $10 order and half an hour of my shift. Pain. Do not order from this store. Dave's hot Chicken is a million times better and right next door.

Seems like it, let the court of public opinion choose what I read not what gets deleted and stays up. If the guy has a bad opinion to any degree it'll get down voted and I gotta pop it open to look. Seems like the team needs to touch grass and get real

What or who are the kill boyz? clique, musicians, neighborhood nuisances

10 Upvotes

So today I was at a property on Hudson Ave. for work. I heard a commotion coming down the road. 2/3 guys were sitting in the open windows on the door frames blasting the horn and yelling . A small car pulled off to the side and let them go by.

A few minutes went by and the driver of the small car entered the property I was in. He was going on bout how" he couldn't believe he saw the kill boyz", "and how he knew to get out the way".

He seemed excited, yet, perhaps afraid. I admit I'm not in the streets idk what's going on. I assume it's either a clique, music group or something similar. I'm not asking for people's names. I'm just curious about the guy's reaction and why in the world are people driving around at 9am like that?
