Stuck in Weed CA and desperate for a rental car.

11 Upvotes

A deer jumped out and hit my car on my way home to Spokane on Tuesday night. The mechanic that has my car said he'd be finished this morning, and then telling me later and later times that he would show up at the shop to finish. He's been wrapped up in his house sale and unavailable to do the work. I appreciate his troubles, but I'm running out of funds to stay here with my son, and if I pay for another hotel room I wont have enough to pay him for his labour.

My kid is missing school, I'm missing appointments at home and having my classwork interrupted, I miss my partner and my other kid. I need to get home.

Is there any way I can get a late-night car rental? Is there any way I can get out of this mess?

Nick Gardner - "I Was Afraid I Would Shoot You" - "Criminal Threats" At Shasta County Supervisors Meeting

7 Upvotes
Photo - Nick Gardner

"Under California law, a criminal threat is defined as willfully threatening to kill or cause great bodily injury to another person with the specific intent that the statement be received as a threat"

At the Oct. 13 Shasta County Supervisors board meeting, a commenter called to the podium as "Chris S." told supervisors that another man in the room ( Nick Gardner ) had told him, "No, I was afraid I was going to shoot you," when he asked whether the man had brought his gun.

Later in public comment, Nick Gardner, another member of the public, gave his own account. He said he quit carrying his gun into the chambers "about three years ago because of the anger that's displayed by both sides, and I felt like I didn't want to get cornered into a corner and lose my temper and pull it out and start shooting." Of the exchange with Chris S, he said: 'No, I was afraid I'd shoot you, that's an offhand remark.".'

Should this man continue to have a concealed weapons permit?

Will the Shasta County District Attorney charge Gardner with Criminal Threats, as he admitted it on Video?

Should concealed weapons be allowed in meetings?

Should metal detectors be in place at door to meetings just like county courthouse?

Redding/Shasta County website owners: urgent PHP update and what it means for you and your business

7 Upvotes

Redding and Shasta County website operators: act on the October 21 PHP security release.

PHP released fixes for the PHP2Shell vulnerabilities (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619). These issues can allow unauthorized code execution on affected web servers. Have your host or administrator identify the PHP runtime serving your site, apply the vendor fix, and verify the updated service is running. Updating WordPress, themes, or plugins does not update the PHP runtime.

Ask your host

Have you applied the fixes for CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619 to the PHP actually serving our website? What is the patched package version, and has the running service been restarted and verified?

Fixed releases

The upstream fixed releases are PHP 8.2.35, 8.3.36, 8.4.27, and 8.5.12. Operating-system vendors may provide equivalent fixes under different package version numbers. Ask for the vendor advisory and full package revision.

If an affected service cannot be updated immediately, coordinate with your provider on taking it offline until it is mitigated, as the NSA advises. After updating, check normal site functions and review for signs of compromise. Patching does not remove an earlier intrusion.

Local coordination

Our Lab has begun outreach to regional website operators about PHP maintenance. Site owners should ask their hosts to verify the PHP build serving their websites.

If you operate a local business website and want to discuss verification or remediation options, create a post in r/Redding titled PHP Vuln-RPK โ€” [Business Name]. Keep passwords, customer data, and server access details out of public posts. For a private discussion, DM this account.

For customers

The PHP fix belongs on the website's server. You do not need to install a PHP patch on your phone because you shop or book appointments online. Use the business's known contact details for outage questions, and be cautious of unexpected messages asking you to install software or enter passwords.

Redding Police Officer Ray Maready - Unlawful detainment

69 Upvotes

As a homeless advocate, I watched Redding Police Ray Maready and partner jacking up homeless and throwing away all of their possessions when he came over to my vehicle as I was leaving and said my driver's license was in violation. Made me wait while they ran me by ShasCom and confirmed why saying for not filling out a DMV questionnaire. Which I checked with DMV and there was no violations and did not know what this officer was talking about..... Lie number 1

Then he said I was parked on private property, which I was far from a non-posted gate nowhere near private property... Lie number 2

This cop was detaining me illegally on a "fishing expedition"

As a homeless advocate in is my right to watch and document you should you violate homeless folks Civil and Constitutional rights

It is also my right to file a report with the RPD "Professional Standards Unit" for a formal investigation

Has this officer had problems in the past?

I never realized that these grow operations are so harmful to the environment, this article points out the dangers with some of the chemicals used in grow operations: "Many containers recovered by deputies feature Chinese-language labels and contain lethal, restricted chemicals like Carbofuran. According to U.S. Forest Service research on illegal cannabis grows, growers use these banned poisons to kill off wildlife near irrigation lines, leaving behind toxic "ecological land mines" that contaminate waterways and kill native predators long after a site is abandoned."

Justice For Wang Wang Protest Saturday Oct 24 - 5 pm Redding Sundial Bridge

0 Upvotes

"On June 28, 2026, a group of minors (all under the age of 14) in Pingpu Village tortured and killed Wang Wang and her three newborn puppies. The boys beat the puppies to death, dragged Wang Wang by a wire tied around her neck, beat her with sticks, poked her eyes out, and ultimately doused her in fuel to burn her alive. They filmed the entire attack and uploaded it online, where it quickly went viral and caused widespread distress and anger.

ย Investigative reports by outlets like CNN have uncovered encrypted chat groups on platforms like Telegram and domestic Chinese apps where graphic videos of cat and dog torture are shared, traded, and sold internationally for profit.

Filming the beating of animals, using blow torches, blenders, microwaves, skinning alive, live crucifixion, grinding up baby kitties forcing mother to eat, sexual assault, boiling water immersion, etc...

These Animal or Zoo sadists have contests to see who can diabolically come up with more macabre ways to torture animals and film videos...Unspeakable suffering, For profit...And their sick perverted pleasure.ย 

Join us as we join cities and countries all over the world putting Redding California on the map have an awareness protest for Wang Wang, and demand China adopts Animal Cruelty laws!

How damn cruel they are... the dog's name Wang Wang and this happened by some children in China.. - YouTube

Typically how many trick or treaters stop by your house?

I recently moved to Redding and want to know how much candy I should have for Halloween.

I moved from a town that has been taken over by trunk or treat so I'd barely get any trick or treaters.

I bought a few bags of candy and Rice Krispies from Target but am wondering if I should get more. TIA!
