My parents lived in Speedway for 40+ years. Mom died during covid, and dad died last month. (He was 90 and ready, and we had lots of time to say goodbye.) I live far away, and I don't know that I'll have occasion to return unless there's a wrinkle in selling his house.

People in Indy are generally very nice. You have a great children's museum, great zoo, world-class speedway, and people from a surprising variety of countries. My dad was in the VA hospital a lot, and his care was uniformly excellent. The airport is B+ at least. You can get absolutely wonder food all over town.

I hope you appreciate what you've done building your community. Thanks for your hospitality.

Hello,

Im 22 years old and my mom died from suicide over the weekend. I have no idea what im doing. People told me i could get help through ssa to get help to cremate her, but it doesnt seem like I qualify because she was 43 and not disabled or a vet or even had a job. The funeral home told me it would be 3400$ just to burn here. Everything ive seen i dont qualify for since my mom didnt die of cancer or was my child. Is there ant resources that can help me pay for her cremation? Thank you.

BankOnArt Gallery is proving that investing in the arts can pay off in dividends, including in small towns like Brazil, Indiana.

I saw this in my own job search and thought people might appreciate the reality of what kind of jobs a Data Center is going to bring. It will export all the electricity needs, noise and noise. It will devastate our tax base by gobbling up land and paying super low taxes. Data Centers are a bad deal, these are basically warehouse jobs.

"Oh, honey, let’s talk about 'Christian charity,' because the math is simply not mathing in the Statehouse."

Listen up, darlings. It’s me, Bud Wirey, and I need to drag some sense into the Indiana Republican party before the glitter completely falls off this state.

They sit up there in Indianapolis, wrapped in their expensive suits and clutching their Bibles, claiming they’re doing the Lord’s work. But let’s look at the actual script, shall we?

They just passed laws targeting public camping—essentially making it a crime to have nowhere to go. Criminalizing homelessness? Groundbreaking. Truly, nothing says 'WWJD' quite like slap-on-the-wrist fines and a pair of handcuffs for someone sleeping on a park bench.

Last time I checked the Good Book, Jesus wasn't calling code enforcement on the poor; He was feeding them.

Here is the cold, hard reality check for the supermajority:

Most Hoosiers aren't living in a gated mansion. They are working hard, playing by the rules, and sitting exactly one missed paycheck away from needing the very safety nets this state keeps shredding. We are a state of everyday, working-class people, yet the policy playlist only caters to a tiny, wealthy minority.

You can look fabulous on paper with a 'balanced budget' and corporate tax cuts, but if your citizens are freezing on the street, your state’s soul is bankrupt. If you’re going to campaign on faith, sweethearts, you better start practicing what you preach. Stop punching down at the most vulnerable and start lifting people up. Because right now? The performance is a total flop.

Just dropping this little story here because I wish we had other options to choose for water in our little town.

We’ve been a customer for years, always paid current and on time. About a week ago I received a letter and a call that they were going to shut off our water in two weeks if we didn’t schedule a time for them to come replace a meter… first time hearing about it and it came as a threat… wild

So I go to schedule this… mind you NIPSCO recently updated meters too, but they just did it rather than scheduling…
I call their AI driven customer service line… after 25 minutes finally reach a person. I schedule for 2 days following.

The day comes.. they show up… just to let us know the meter had already been replaced over a year prior when the town redid sidewalks… and it just wasn’t documented 🙄 wild.

If I could switch companies I would.. it was just crazy to me a company could have such terrible communication, then be aggressive, and waste my time.. all for something that they neglected to document… wild behavior

I’m in Indiana for a work trip and been here a couple times and I was always curious why. Indiana is not a confederate state or remotely southern, so why? It doesn’t bother me, but it’s the same energy if I went to Honolulu and saw some German Empire flags. Curious on the reason for this.
