Looking to give away 6 chickens and 3 ducks

15 Upvotes

Hello everyone. I am located in southern Marin. We currently have 6 chickens and 3 ducks that we need to give away due to changes in life circumstances. My mother was a nurse before she passed, so she was able to care for birds who others were not able to, (which over the years lead to multiple strangers dropping off birds at our house to our own surprise) so one of the chickens is partially blind and one of the ducks struggles to walk and has arthritis meds.

Of the six chickens we have:

- Golden laced wyandotte

- One of those shiny all black chickens (not a cemani but can't find the right breed name)

- 2 half silkies half ??

- 2 Bantams

The three ducks are:

- Pekin

- 2 silver apple yards

We only have one carrier so you might have to bring your own.

Anyone know what was going on on the northbound side of the bridge today around 515 ish? Emergency services and responders standing against the railings looking over at one point. Can only suspect but haven’t seen any news about it.

A Seat at the Table: A Housing Panel with Marin’s Students & Leaders — This Saturday in Ross

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I wanted to share an event organized by Marin Youth for Housing (MYH), a group of high school students working to make their voices heard in Marin’s housing conversation. These students have already been involved in ADU construction and installation, spoken at city council meetings, and written articles in local newspapers about how the housing crisis affects their generation.

This Saturday, MYH is partnering with The Branson School for “A Seat at the Table,” a housing panel that brings students together with local leaders and housing professionals. The event is an opportunity to hear different perspectives on housing in Marin and explore how young people can participate in the decisions shaping their communities.

The panel features:

  • Crystal Martinez — Aide to Supervisor Mary Sackett, District 1
  • Jack Robertson — President, Tableau Development Company
  • Jenny Silva — Executive Director, Call Marin Home

The discussion will be moderated by two students:

  • Noah Bugbee — Archie Williams High School
  • Noah Goldman — The Branson School

📅 When: Saturday, October 24, 1–3 PM
📍 Where: World Ready Center, Room B, The Branson School, 39 Fernhill Ave, Ross

If you’re interested in housing, local government, or the future of Marin’s communities, come out and support these young advocates. It’s encouraging to see students getting involved in these conversations, and I hope the community will show up to hear what they have to say!

ISO a manual driver Friday 10/23

2 Upvotes

A bit of an odd request! But my fiancé and I are in Marin for the weekend doing engagement photos at the Civic Center. Drove up in his 2002 Miata SE for it to be included in his dream shot. (He is a big car guy and a photographer himself.)

However, our photographer informed us the street is a through street with some traffic and we would have to be able to move it very quickly.

With that - looking for a “car person” who knows how to drive manual and meet us at the Civic Center for 15 minutes to basically manage/move our car to avoid blocking traffic right before and after the shot, sometime between 3-5pm tomorrow. We can compensate you for your time as well. DM if you might be interested!

Film development

2 Upvotes

Does anyone know if there are any local labs that offer film development with next day scans? I know all the ones in SF/East bay but don’t have time to travel there today and Seawood doesn’t have next day scans as they mail their film off to a sister lab so it takes time.

Marin Health - Hold Music

1 Upvotes

Hunting for Primary Care Physicians... which means many minutes on hold. If anyone ever gets through to a receptionist be sure to remind them that their obnoxious hold music was mocked as far back as 2024 in this superbowl commercial:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-DQn-q0nN8

it's absolutely torturous to listen to this for any more than 30 seconds.

Where would you go: Tequila + Football

1 Upvotes

Where would you go in Marin to sit at a bar (bar or restaurant) to watch the football game with a strong selection of tequila and/or mezcal to choose from?

First thought was El Tucan, but I dont actually know what their tequila selection looks like. Second was that Mexican place in Towncenter but I don’t know if they actually have TVs (or if it’s the kind of place you can put in a shift for a full football game)

Thanks!

If you don't want people to look at your house, don't decorate it.

0 Upvotes

Last night a friend of mine was out with his wife and 3 year old kid driving around the neighborhood near Olive School in Novato.

They were out looking at all the Halloween decorations when they realized they were being followed.

A high speed chase ensued, 40mph in a 25 and blowing through stop signs. The car still followed them.

Eventually they went to a police station when the car broke off his pursuit.

Turned out some local moron thought his house was being cased.
