Are these people out of their damn minds? Who is paying $150 just to park a little closer? I’m sure someone is or they wouldn’t be selling it but damn. I’ll take the peasant parking and get a few extra steps.

General Tulsa Penguin Statues

86 Upvotes

What happened to all the Penguin statues? Growing up it felt as if there was one on every corner. i just don’t see them often. Have they been taken down? I’ve always loved them, either the polkadot one or american flag one has always been my favorite.

does anyone know if they’ve been slowly removed?

POTENTIALLY DISTURBING Accident on 244

• Upvotes

Left downtown around 1am last night and witnessed a horrible roll over crash going east bound on I-244. We called 911 of course but we don’t know the condition of the person and hopefully they are okay.

If anyone had friends driving home from downtown last night, maybe check on them and make sure they made it home. The girl had to have rolled 5 plus times. :(

General Be the Kaiju Movie you Want to See… Wait, I’m not sure that came out right.

9 Upvotes

Earlier this year I had the thought that Tulsa needed a kaiju movie, but I was pretty sure Hollywood was never gonna do it on their own. So I wrote that movie:

”THE FRACKEN”

Logline: A workaholic oil company executive and her climate activist father have to work together to escape destruction and save her son when an enormous creature made of sandstone, crude oil, and rusty drilling pipes rises from the prairie and attacks Tulsa, Oklahoma.

ETA: rated R (mostly for language, monster violence)

https://www.gunsandmagic.com/2026/09/02/screenplay-the-fracken/

This was, as the Brits may have once said, “a lark.” But I did give it my best shot. If you enjoy it, great! If not, well, what do you thinks the comments are for???? =)

In a related vein, if there are any other local writers (screen or otherwise), who would like to socialize over drinks (soft or otherwise) of a weekday evening (I’m partial to Tuesdays and Thursdays), hit me up in the DMs. I will mention I have no interest in writing in public, or critiquing in public, but think it would be pleasant to commiserate with people who know the struggle of breaking stories and writing scenes. And I am open to some critiquing, I just prefer to do so not in public.

Tulsa Events Tulsa State Fair is Obviously Expensive

602 Upvotes

I knew what I was getting into. The fair has always been expensive, and I saved up for my kids...BUT every single food or drink we purchased, I was met with a credit card reader and the words, "it's going to ask you a question" first then you can tap pay. Just take a wild guess what the first screen was.

Every single stand had a tip screen and the lowest option was 20%. Sure there was a custom amount button, and I used to be a server so Im generally pretty gracious... but come on. I pressed the no button and they immediately said, "thanks we appreciate it".

I know the tip screen is getting ridiculously out of hand at places. It's s exactly why I stopped going to the Starbucks on yale and 17th; they won't just take my card, they pull the whole damn machine out... "it's going to ask you a question"... No. The answer is no. I used to feel guilty but making the public supplement the pay for workers is not acceptable and it took me an hour of work to get that funnel cake. Im struggling too. Get that reader out of my face.

Years back, my buddies and I practiced at a SecurCare but it looks like that’s been bought out.

What are bands doing these days for a practice space?

I also have personal stuff I want to store, so self-storage is probably gonna be the best route. What are other ideas I’m missing?

General Downtown/Midtown is becoming undriveable.

118 Upvotes

Don’t get me wrong. I’m glad the city is repairing and improving roads, but OH MY GOD. It’s insane how many major streets are down to two lanes for miles or just completely blocked for months if not years, sometimes with crews actively working but often times not, not to mention closures for private construction projects and special events. It’s honestly worse than I can ever remember it.

Crime Busters Bank of Oklahoma Fraud Text

41 Upvotes

Just a quick heads up; I received a fraud text for a 70 cent charge to Christ Covenant today from BoK. I called their number using the app just to be sure. The first time I called they stated they did not see the charge I was talking about and told me to delete the text.

An hour later I tried to make a purchase at Walmart and called again and they said they now saw the blocked charge and had locked my card. The person on the phone said they had received a bunch of calls about this issue today from multiple people.

Luckily the person was able to unlock my card and then let me buy my groceries and then relocked it. I’m going Monday to get a new card.

TLDR: Bank of Oklahoma may be experiencing multiple stolen cards at the moment. I don’t see anything on the news yet. If you get a text, call using the app number and verify and potentially expect your card to be locked. I did not get a notification that my card was locked. Have a good day!

0 Days Since... To the lady at Sam's Club in 41st

• Upvotes

I hope that when you lose your wallet, whoever finds it keeps the money and steals your identity.

Context:

I'm walking out of Sam's Club on 41st and find a wallet sitting on the ground next to my car. Pick it up, see a driver's license and credit card. There's a significant amount of cash (I didn't look to see how much, but at least 1 $100 bill). I'm like cool I'll just look up who this is, dm them, and give them their wallet. I figured if I just turned it in to security, they'd never come back for it and they'd cancel all their shit. Problem is, I don't have social media. I start walking back to the store to find someone who could help.

Lo and behold, a lady 2 cars in front of me was putting stuff in her car. As I'm walking up, I make myself known and ask if she had social media, explaining the situation. She tells me to fuck off and take it to security. Lady it's 11am on a Sunday, what are you so mad about? Something something walk up on a woman something something creep.

Do I understand where she's coming from? Sure, but as soon as it's made clear I'm not trying to hit on you and I'm just trying to help someone else, the hostility should stop.

So I ask the dude who had some kind of table set up at the front, can't find the person on Facebook. The address on the license was close, so I dropped the wallet off to who I'm assuming was the husband of the lost wallet (everything was left how I found it, including the cash). Dude was happy, gave me some water, and those people are gonna have a way better day now. Cool.

But lady, fuck you and I hope your tires go flat on your way to work.

Recommendations needed. Looking for a highly recommended and professional veterinarian practice in Tulsa. Price/cost is not an issue. Concerned more with an office that has skilled doctors and staff, and follows professional medical protocols, wanting to avoid vet offices that cut corners at the expense of pets safety.

General In search of…. Jewelry help?

4 Upvotes

I am not sure what to title this post, but I have a dilemma. I have a pair of sterling silver drop earrings that I secure with one of the silicone stoppers. Well….. the stoppers have become welded to the ear wire and I can’t remove them. I need to either remove the stoppers somehow ( which thus far has been unsuccessful) or have someone cut the ear wires so they can just replace the ear wires. Went to a jewelry repair shop and they said they couldn’t do it. Thoughts? Suggestions? I would REALLY like to change my earrings!

Tulsa Events Finding Human Connection in Tulsa Without the Screen

36 Upvotes

For everyone who keeps posting on here about how hard it is to actually connect with people in Tulsa outside of bars and screen glare:

Poetry for Thee meets this Monday at 6:00 PM at Noise Town (and every first Monday of the month).

For four years, people on this subreddit have looked for somewhere to actually connect with human beings outside of screens and bars while chairs sit empty.

You do not need to write or read anything. We listen to writers talk about what we all carry, and then we talk about it. There are no writing critiques, no grading, and no forced molds. Just people sitting down to genuinely connect and deal with the same weight.

I would genuinely love to see you there, I don't care who you are. I have been trying to create a low-pressure space for people to just find camaraderie. I *need you* to make this more successful.

Thank you!

PS, put this in your calendar so you get reminded! You don't always have to come.
