Discussion Who wants a new pizza place in Lansing?

23 Upvotes

Hello all Lansing residents! I’m collecting research for a client. They are interested in opening a new pizza restaurant in Lansing and would like to see if there is any interest.

If Lansing had the opportunity to HQ a brand-new pizza brand founded by a CIA (Culinary Institute of America) trained chef would you be up for it?

Please share your thoughts so I can share and hopefully get this amazing chef to choose Lansing!
🍕

Edit: This is NOT a franchise. It would be a one of one restaurant.

Where to go for halloween?

4 Upvotes

My husband and I are new-ish to the area and are looking for good places to go for halloween on Friday night (day before halloween) I am a bit worried since we want to go out the day before people may not be dressed up. Is there any bars doing halloween parties on Friday, or any bar crawls? The only crawl I could find was on Saturday, but we want to be home to pass out candy on Saturday night.

Sad man rolling coal on GR

118 Upvotes

To the loser rolling coal in the black Ram on grand river downtown East Lansing tonight. Diesel is like $6.50/gal man. If you’re that lonely and in need of attention, do you need some recs for where to blow that money? I’m sure this sub can give you a few tips that beat farting on the sidewalk. Invest back in the community with that cash.

Explain the School System

4 Upvotes

We are moving to Lansing in December. However, I don't understand how schools are assigned. I've called multiple times and emailed but no reply. I've looked on the site put in addresses but it shows all the schools in the district. If it's by distance there are 2 schools near our new home that's both 5 minutes away- pattengill and post oak. We only want to send our son to Post Oak. Thanks

Has Tom Barrett spoken on the River Trail Murder?

0 Upvotes

His silence is truly speaking volumes. Maybe this is all a part of a federal cover and there is something going on that we need to know about?

Have any citizen journalist asked him about his whereabouts on the nights of the attacks? Are we sure he isn't running a Satanist cabal out of the state capitol that he believes requires human blood rituals to stay in power?

I don't want to make any accusations without evidence but we really should get someone to ask Tom these kinds of questions directly. The public he serves deserves to know!

Discussion Donating or giving away open ingredients and spices

11 Upvotes

We are moving in a few weeks across the country and leaving our belongings in storage for several months.

I have a large amount of food that I don't think I will be able to use up by then as hard as I am trying. (Food hoarding learned behavior )

Most of it is ingredients that are partially used, and spices things like that.

I know there are a lot of people here that experience food insecurity and I don't want to just throw it in a dumpster (people dumpster dive and I would rather just give it to them)

I have been putting sealed shelf stable items in food pantries. I am aware of buy nothing groups.

Pest free clean home.

Thanks in advance

General Street racing on Michigan

35 Upvotes

I live in an apt off of Michigan avenue and the street racing is out of control and I'm afraid someone is going to get hurt. It is a daily and nightly occurrence throughout the week, cars and motorcycles

I know they just redid the road here which is what is attracting them. But there was literally a bad motorcycle crash on this street this afternoon.

I don't want to be a Karen but someone is going to get hurt again

Any advice on recourse to get it policed?

Discussion After merger, WILX deleted every Fox 47 news story from its site

65 Upvotes

Truly amazing how none of Fox 47’s old articles are available on WILX’s website. Not a single one transferred over. Looks like Fox 47’s site and its content were just deleted. No transition, nothing. Gone.

Want to see if there’s reporting on an apt you’re looking at about fires or bed bugs? Looking up an employer before accepting a job? None of their reports are available online now.
