Voting for Shameka Parish-Wright

36 Upvotes

With the mayoral election next week I’m genuinely curious about Shameka Parish-Wright. I consider myself decently informed on local politics and I just haven’t heard much from her. What are your opinions on her positions and why should I vote for her?

I really want to hear opinions based on her, not just that Greenberg is bad etc. Why should she be our next mayor?

I Get the "Keep Louisville Weird" Thing, but...

0 Upvotes

What businesses, local or not, so long as they have a location here, should we NOT support?

Fine with hearing personal drama, but would prefer to keep this focused on the more objectively fucked up reasons to hate a business. Like, I never liked Crumbl Cookie, but literally nobody told me they were tied to the LDS/Mormonism cult?!

Louisville's usually pretty anti-cult, so I was like, wtf.

Some things aren't surprising, like ik a lot of Waffle House money goes to the GOP, but...

Good locals of Louisville, what businesses are we avoiding in town, and why? I can look up who donates to what all day, and believe me, I have, but it's way harder to find info on non-franchises, where they meddle into local politics or do other heinous stuff, or again, stuff that won't really show up in spending reports like cult affiliation.

Any places to keep an eye out for?

Publix

27 Upvotes

So today my friend and I finally made it way out to Publix off Old Henry. For ages you constantly hear people singing the praises of this place. Now I will say the cheese selection is crazy huge. The soup and salad bar is amazing, along with the wings and Chinese food bar. But I'm sorry. Kroger has Publix beat on prices. At least on stuff I buy. Also Publix, why don't you put the prices of your products in the app (some products do have prices)? And some places in the store, products have no prices.

So all in all Publix just isn't for me. Plus it's like 20 miles from where I live.

Louisville death row meal?

13 Upvotes

Let’s play a game.

You’re on culinary death row, but the warden is ordering food from anywhere in Louisville.

What’s your exact order? I’m talking about a specific appetizer, main course, dessert, and drink from any spot in town.

For example I’m taking:
Scotch eggs from Irish rover, Rueben and fries from CJK Deli, long John from nords, and a good old ale8.

See you on the other side!

What business do you drive past and wonder how they’re still open? You never see them have business or if they do it’s one person.

I'm wondering if anyone knows where to find Caribbean rum cake around here. I'll even go to Cincy if anyone knows a good place there. I try to make it myself, but it doesn't come out like what I've had abroad. TIA!

Morning Headlights

• Upvotes

Louisvillians,

I implore you. Please please please.

The next morning you get in your car, check your headlight settings. They may be inadvertently on high beams and you don't even realize.

I'm aware that modern LED headlights and SUV angles and all that are a thing, but this is not that. You have your high beams on.

Just, do that one thing and check it next morning.

Thank you!

Missed Connection

Long shot but I meant a nice group of women at Midnight, Margaritas and Magic at Clifton Tavern last friday. I enjoyed our brief conversation and failed to get your contact info. Jessica, Darcy, and Mimi were their names. I was the guy who sat down with you all and had a sequin witches hat. I'd love to connect with Jessica again. That's all I know lol. Anyhoo, shooting this into the void - here's hoping this finds you.

Drivers, stop breaking traffic laws by “trying to be nice”

• Upvotes

If you’re stopping traffic when you have the right way to let someone else go, you’re not being nice or considerate. You’re being a fucking asshole by creating more traffic and causing a more dangerous situation.

Stop trying to do your good deed for the day and just follow the damn rules.

Weird Smell Across the Neighborhood

Is there anyone who lives near Garrs Ln and S. Crums in Shively that is smelling something completely disgusting in the air over the neighborhood right now? Started this morning around 8 A.M., reported it to Air Pollution Control but its still there and arguably worse 4 hours later.

Halloween Costume Events

4 Upvotes

I just got a Halloween costume passing by a local bar event; however, it turns out the event was only last Friday- I missed it. So I have gotten a costume without much of anywhere to go in it.

I want to avoid a situation like last year where Halloween was sitting in the house in my costume waiting for Trick or Treaters that never came. What Halloween events are there to be wearing a costume? Do some places have restrictions on costumes (like no props, no face covering/masks) The only way I've seen people talk about this kind of stuff is on Instagram, but I'm not really active on that platform and wouldn't know who to follow or check with really. And 4th street tends to be just standing on balconies/stairs based on my experience- but that is at least my fall-back plan!

Happy Halloween everyone!
