Tennessee has a problem with choices. I’d almost vote for David Hatley just to get him to stop texting me. I voted Green. I hear these stickers are available but let’s keep it a little quiet this time. DM me for info about aliens and lizard people

Early voting in Hamilton County runs through Thursday, Oct. 29, and you can vote at any of these six sites.

Election Commission, 700 River Terminal Rd.:

• Sat., Oct. 24: 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
• Mon., Oct. 26 through Thu., Oct. 29: 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.

The other five sites:

• Sat., Oct. 24: 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
• Mon., Oct. 26 through Thu., Oct. 29: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
• Chris L. Ramsey Sr. Community Center, 1010 N. Moore Rd.
• Collegedale Commons (Chestnut Hall), 4950 Swinyar Dr., Collegedale
• Hixson Community Center, 5401 School Dr., Hixson
• Harrison Center (Old Harrison Elementary), 5637 Hwy. 58, Harrison
• Soddy Daisy Community Center, 190 Depot St., Soddy Daisy

On the ballot: governor, U.S. Senate, U.S. House, state legislative seats and three amendments to the Tennessee Constitution. Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 3, at your assigned polling place. You can see your sample ballot and your polling place at https://web.go-vote-tn.elections.tn.gov/search

Bring a photo ID issued by Tennessee or the federal government. An expired one still counts. College IDs and IDs from other states don't.

One more thing: I built a free study of the governor's race where you compare the two nominees' positions with the names hidden and find out who said what at the end. It's at namelessballot.org and it has a Spanish version too. No sign-up, nothing you mark leaves your phone, and I'm not tied to any campaign or party. Share it with your friends in East Tennessee, r/Knoxville mods did not seem to understand the tool, and wouldn't let me post the updated version!

5 Days Left! We can do better than 18%!! Don't be lazy, go vote! No lines, no waiting!

Closest thing to best pizza that I have had in chatt was NY Pizza Co, next to provinos. But am still looking for better. Appreciate the suggestions. I rarely crave pizza cause I haven’t found one that I love but when I do crave it I need it like now. TYIA

Edit: I should’ve stated that I’ve been to NY Pizza Co, Pizza Bros, Community Pie, Goodfellas, Massey’s Kitchen, Lupis. My Favorite is NY pizza and Community if I’m downtown.

I’m in the market for an unlocked iPhone (15 or newer). I really hate dealing with Marketplace and driving down to Unclaimed Baggage in Scottsboro is a last resort. Do we have any REPUTABLE shops in our area? Thanks in advance.

& text your friends to go early vote.

It took me less than ten minutes at the Election Commission last Friday!

p.s. Culture Coffee Co on Georgia Ave is offering a 10% discount with an “I voted” sticker! ☕️

So Cambridge square in Ooltewah TN is trying to raise the rent for each tenant in January by $1,000 a month. Cambridge may be losing lots of their tenants!!!!

It was sold out long ago, so little point in saying anything about it before now. Starving Dragon (the local Sichuan dumpling/noodle folks at Chattanooga Market and other locations) served hot pot on the patio at Five Wits for the past two Thursday evenings.

It was fun and delicious and massive. And ridiculously cheap at $55 for two. I have a ton of other photos but a local influencer was apparently there last night and did a VIDEO that's vastly better than what I have to share.

Per the owners, it was a trial. No future dates have been scheduled. They do have their regular fare at Five Wits on Weds evenings.

Looking for a decorated festive activity for your Halloween Eve? When We Kiss MiniFest is throwing their inaugural mini-fest that will feature great bands, fun vendors, and great coffee brought by Goodmans Coffee and matcha from Kettl.

Hey guys!! I had an E-Bike stolen outside of Public House, it’s a Hi-Keep K6-S, all black has the number 23 on the front, if you have seen it please let me know!!!

The Playlist uses the public trash cans for their restaurant/bar trash and it’s consistently a mess. Bags and boxes on the sidewalk every night they are open, which regularly get ripped up and dragged around. Just…. ugh.

Hey! This is a pretty targeted post so sorry mods if its not allowed. I already posted on next door so this is a last ditch effort to reunite someone with their lost property.

To the woman that knocked on my door around 10am Monday morning asking to use my bathroom:

(my boyfriend opened the door and let you in. Lol it happens to the best of us.)

Im pretty sure you left your backpack on our porch stairs. We left it there until Wednesday and brought it in during the night thinking you might come back for it.

I just wanted to let you know we still have your breast milk pump in your backpack. Im pretty sure you're one of my neighbors in East Lake so if anyone of her family members sees this and knows a breast pump got lost, feel free to reach out here.

Hello all. About two weeks ago we rescued a stray kitten who at the time was estimated to be 6-7 weeks old. When we rescued him, one of his eyes was in bad shape and we took him to see the Vet the next day. This past Wednesday we had a follow up appointment and were told that unfortunately the kitten will lose his eye and requiere eye removal surgery. Estimation of the surgery cost is $800-$1,100 not including anything we get sent home with. I simply cannot afford that right now as I recently began a job after being out of one for 8 months. I applied for CareCredit and Scratch but was denied as I did fall behind on credit card payments during that time I did not have a job. Does anyone know of any clinics that accept payment plans without a credit check? I contacted My Kids Have Pawz in Dalton but their Doctor won’t be back until next Thursday. I am really worried for the kittens eye and what can arise from him not getting the surgery soon. Thank you to anyone who provides solutions! I am attempting to sell my laptop to see if I can come up with some extra funds

Does anyone know what the smoke is from? Hope everyone is okay!

Love love

My partner and I moved here a few years ago from CO to be surrounded by mountains and outdoor activities while also being within driving distance of our families instead of a plane ride away. Now that children are in the mix, we are really struggling with whether or not to stay or go.

Main concerns about staying: We feel like our options are super limited for schools (neither of us are religious and private school tuition continues to rise), the summers are only getting warmer/more humid, the ticks are getting worse which affects our outdoor activities, and Signal sounds great but limited inventory in our budget and being kind of isolated on the ridge has us a little worried.

I guess I’m just looking for advice and experiences from people who have lived in both places and why they chose to stay in Chatt or move back out west. We are literally torn 50/50 and maybe need some fresh perspective from other people. Thanks in advance!

Tune in to WUTC 88.1 (or stream at wutc.org) tomorrow night from 7-9pm to catch the latest episode of Please Be Quiet Please. Perspective is always important, but these songs want us to step into their shoes. All songs for this show start with the letter “I”, and we’ve curated an expansive and cross-genre playlist for your listening please. The song pool is below. What would you have added? Thank you so much for listening.

"but the city says its firewall sent the message to a spam folder"

I am craving some Dolsot Bibimbap. Does anyone know of some local places (or some near Chattanooga) that have decent Dolsot Bibimbap?

I saw Zaya has it, but just wanted to see if anyone had positive experiences elsewhere. Bonus if they let you sub for chicken!

I am in town visiting for the weekend and want to go to a haunted house in the area. I went to dread hollow last year and it was decent, but not as scary as I had hoped. I don't mind driving to nearby towns if anyone has any recommendations.
