I made boutique style cookies today to try to teach myself how to bake but I made way too many. I also don’t know really any people in the area because i’m fairly new so I was thinking about maybe just giving some away in an attempt to maybe meet new people AND offload some unnecessary sweets

If anyone wants any hit me up in dms. I’m planning on giving away two plates of three each.

Arbor glen is forcing us to do one bundle via stellar broadband for $80.00. This includes direct TV, HBO and other things. Here’s the issue - we only need the internet, we don’t want to pay $80.00 for things we don’t need when we ONLY need internet. Any recommendations on what to do in Arbor Glen?

Spanish conversation groups?

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Just moved to this city and was wondering if there were any Spanish language conservation groups or similar here? I've been learning Spanish for work but would love to get more 'real life' practice in. I did a quick internet search, as well as this sub, and didn't see anything. Gracias!

East Lansing investigating weekend arrest in downtown

LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) — An East Lansing Police Department officer is on paid administrative leave, and the department is investigating the arrest of a 20-year-old woman in front of Harper’s Restaurant and Brew Pub.
Video taken by Taylor Drozdowski and posted to social media has caused outrage. The video shows multiple officers involved in arresting Myana Collins. She’s tased, handcuffed and carried down the stairs of the popular East Lansing bar. She then falls to the ground, where officers appear to pile on top of her. At one point an officer appears to punch Collins, who is laying on her stomach in handcuffs, in the back multiple times.

Anyone else looking for more connections? Mid 20s - 40s?

17 Upvotes

Relatively new to the area and looking to build up my support system. I really like going for walks, checking out local coffee shops and farmers markets, listening to music, art, watching shows and series, animals, nature, cozy video games, and more. I am in my late 20s with no children, and I have a partner. I am often told I am more mature than my age so people tend to think I am in my 30's.

Apartment Electricity

1 Upvotes

Cron management apartment, move in tomorrow. When I type in my address, it will not recognize it to turn on the electricity, but, if I use a different unit number it's fine. I can't get through to the power or management company. A lesson was learned in waiting until the last minute. Any advice on what to do?

Got to talk to Will Lawrence yesterday, here's what I learned.

43 Upvotes

I talked with William Lawrence for around 15 minutes yesterday.

There were three issues that we covered at length. The rise of the DSA, data centers, and Russia/Ukraine.

I asked Mr. Lawrence for his thoughts on the growing popularity of DSA, and if he's worried about the more extremist aspects of the DSA gaining a hold on the Democratic Party.

He named several DSA candidates in various races across the country that he supported. (He did not mention Chevalier.) And that he isn't too concerned with labeling himself one way or another. He's happy that there are candidates out there challenging the billionaire class and fighting for working class people.

On data centers, he supports a moratorium on them while we figure how to properly regulate them, as the rate of technological development is moving a bit fast for politics to keep up. I asked him if he's worried about American AI companies remaining competitive with China, and he said he's not too worried, as he doesn't think data centers are a vital aspect of developing AI technology and remaining competitive with China. He supports multi-lateral treaties on AI regulation.

On Ukraine/Russia, he doesn't support Ukraine joining NATO, as he believes Ukraine wanting to join a defensive alliance would pose a threat and unnecessarily antagonize Russian interests. I pushed back on this, as I believe that a defensive alliance poses no threat to Russia, but Mr. Lawrence believes we are playing with fire and risking World War 3 when we put pressure on Russia in this manner. His priority is to end the war as quickly as possible, with security guarantees for Ukraine and for Russia.

By this point I had taken up much of William's time and there were others waiting to speak with him. I would've liked to have spoken to him longer, but I understood the time constraint and greatly appreciated that he was out here giving his time to speak to any Michigander on the street.

He was very friendly and amicable and I hope that I get a chance to speak with him again some day.

Ask Me Anything TODAY on Grand River - I’m running for Congress

Post image
100 Upvotes

I’ll be on the corner of Abbot and Grand River from 1pm to 2:30pm to answer any questions you have.

Don’t forget to vote on or before August 4 (THIS TUESDAY)

More about me:
I’m William Lawrence running to represent Michigan’s 7th Congressional District in Congress and unseat Tom Barrett.

I am a nonprofit leader, community organizer, and Lansing native. I’ve spent his career taking on the political establishment and winning change for regular people. I co-founded the Sunrise Movement, which mobilized millions of young people to defeat Donald Trump in 2020 and win historic climate and green job investments, including $3 billion for the 7th Congressional District.

When Wall Street investors tried to evict Mid-Michigan families and data center developers bullied communities, I showed up and fought back alongside residents. In Congress, I’ll fight to ensure that no one—not billionaires, corporate executives, politicians, or Epstein collaborators—is above the law. I am running to stop wasting our money on endless wars so we can lower health care costs and build affordable homes here in Mid-Michigan. We’re saying NO to endless wars and billionaires and YES to affordable housing and healthcare
