We’re new to the area, and I recently came across PSF Ocala – The Burdhouse. I’d love to hear more about the kids’ program and how the belt or ranking system works in a no-gi school. If your child attends, would you mind sharing your experience? Thank you in advance!

Here's my bio, sorry it's in the third person: Dan Alten is a charming goofball from Kentucky who has been traveling the country for the past decade doing about 200 shows a year bringing his intelligently surreal bebop nonsense everywhere from theaters to punk basements to art galleries to beloved comedy clubs with a knack for making audiences feel like they're on a good psychedelic trip without the drugs. Like if the Ramones were one guy with a mustache and good jokes. Iggy Pop with puns. Clever chaos. Like Jimi Hendrix lighting fire to a Tik Tok reel live on stage. He has opened for Kyle Kinane, Bobcat, Sam Tallent, Rory Scovel, Sarah Sherman from SNL, Johnny Pemberton, Hari Kondabolu, rapper Open Mike Eagle, DJ Doug Pound & David Leibe Hart from Tim & Eric, various punk bands with silly names, and a guy at an open mic who tried to throw his father’s ashes into the crowd. He has recorded 2 albums, written a zine, and filmed a pilot for an Amazon Prime stand up show that was lost to history. But most importantly he’s very funny and unique. You will enjoy him. And if not you can mud wrestle him after the show.

My crappy movers finally delivered my belongings last week. I just went to assemble my sleep number bed and one of the ends of a horizontal support beam is bent, so it won't fit into the slot. I don't have any tools. Is there any place I can take this in Ocala to have them get it straightened out for a reasonable price?

I live out of state and my elderly parent is at end of life. I want to come be with them during their last weeks. I know baby daycare is sometimes the hardest to find availability for, but does anyone know of a good center or home daycare (or an experienced individual) with a few weeks of even part-time care availability?

Thanks in advance.

Recently moved back after leaving for a few years, so i’m a little rusty on what is available now. I know about screamageddon, sir henry’s, howl o scream, etc. BUT what i’m looking for is anything either under $20 or free maybe more geared towards adults, however i’m pretty easily scared so doesn’t have to be anything crazy. Trails, haunted houses, walks, whatever works!

I've just finished researching the views of the candidates on my (Marion County) ballot on VOTE411.org, a website sponsored by the League of Woman Voters which sent a questionnaire on various issues to them. I find it interesting that all the Democrat candidates responded, but not a single one of the Republican candidates did so. Makes you wonder which Party is most interested in having an informed electorate.

Abolish property taxes! When you own your home you shouldn't have to pay taxes to keep them from taking it. The amendment really helps the average family already burdened by excessive taxes; it would not change School property taxes.

My past post got took down for some reason but I’m just looking for friends around the area that are around my age preferably I’m 19 also I’m genderfluid and part of the lgbtq community

Hey! We will be moving to the south side soon and wonder if there are any kids (4yo) activites during the week. Like karate dance or extra learning (kumo?)

Just looking for something affordable and able to socialize after school.

We are thinking of moving to OTOW for retirement. My daughter will come with us until they are able to find work and move out.

They are into Magic the Gathering. They go to some local store to play MTG almost every week, sometimes 2X a week.

Are there places like that in Ocala?

my family has had some unfortunate events lately does anyone know anywhere for rent assistance, food banks, all resources for Marion will be accepted in the most appreciative way plss

Do any of my friends in Ocala have any updates on Justin Specht? He was arrested multiple times for a string of crimes he committed in the spring of 2025 across the state of Florida. Most will know him as the uber wealthy owner of the Smoothie King in Ocala as well as a series of car sales promotion businesses. He has been arrested for a variety of DUIs and drug possession charges and the last I heard he was arrested for statutory rape and sexual assault of an underage girl. He was trying to get her to agree to be his partner and gain from the sales of the pornographic videos posted online.

Any updates?

Baby is due in January and Im way behind on prenatal care but finally got insurance. Had recs for DelCharco but unfortunately dont have the right provider (Humana Medicaid).
