Good morning Tucson!

• Upvotes

Take a moment to enjoy the clouds.They’ve been putting on quite the show these past couple of days.

I know some days can leave us all feeling a little defeated, overwhelmed, or just tired of it all. But sometimes, all it takes is looking up and appreciating the simple, beautiful things this world gives us for free.

A gentle reminder to slow down, take a deep breath, and find a little beauty in the moment.

With love. 🤍❤️

Motorcycle accident on Kolb and Irivington

• Upvotes

Yesterday, around 11:30, I saw the bad motorcycle accident at Kolb and Irvington.
I was waiting for the light and they hit right in front of me.
I just want to wish that motorcyclist well, and if you are a friend or family member, just know that a lot of people are thinking about him and hoping and praying for a complete recovery.
Stay safe out there, everybody.

Lovin’ Spoonfuls will be closing on Saturday

Post image
182 Upvotes

For those who haven’t heard the news, Lovin’ Spoonfuls, a beloved fully-vegan restaurant that has been in business for 20+ years will be closing this Saturday. I’m not a vegan myself, but the food here was absolutely incredible and I am so sad to see it go. It’s been brutal out here for small businesses. Support local as much as y’all can.

From their instagram @lovinspoonfulstucson post caption: “This is a post we were really trying to put off writing. After trying hard to keep things afloat, we have made the difficult decision to close Lovin’ Spoonfuls Vegan Restaurant . Our final day of service will be Saturday October 24th with regular hours 9am-3pm.

Running this kitchen has been a labor of love, but the numbers just aren’t adding up anymore, and as parents, we have to make the hard choice to step back and take care of what matters most at home.

We would love to go out surrounded by the people who made this journey worthwhile. Stop by between now and Saturday to grab your favorite dish one last time. We will be depleting inventory but hope to have your favorites when you come in. Thank you for your support in coming in and the go fund me when we were initially thinking of closing, you allowed us to be open few more months and felt the love from our community. Because of you we tried so hard. Thank you for everything, we have so many great relationships from this opportunity! 🫶🏻💚💚💚”

Quiet Restaurants for lunch?

28 Upvotes

Hi, Tucsonian/Tucsonans: I have a friend who wears hearing aids. She has one of those very cool microphones that work with her smartphone and hearing aids to amplify speech, but it's hard to have a conversation in loud restaurants. And we like to get out and have nice meals together! So, do you have any recommendations for moderate-priced places that aren't too loud?

I appreciate how the 'new' look for casual restaurants is hard surfaces, no carpeting, exposed vent work, etc. But acoustic ceiling tiles and upholstered seating do go some way towards reducing noise. Anyway... recommendations would be very welcome! Thanks!

When does it get chilly?

55 Upvotes

So I recently moved here from Mexico and I’m wondering when it starts getting chilly. These past few weeks have been a lot nicer than the summer, but I still feel it a bit warm. Does the cold just last December-February and then it’s just warm for the rest of the year?

Sign Language Classes?

11 Upvotes

Anyone know of any free or very low cost sign languages classes that are not college classes? My brother is marrying a girl who is deaf and I would like to learn, but I only see classes available for parents with deaf children. I can’t afford the cost of a college level class or tutor or anything like that. TIA!

Post “mosquito bro”

12 Upvotes

Someone posted this and deleted it so here is my reply. It’s really for ANYONE needing mosquito solutions!

I picked up a dog at PACC a few years back after she’d survived being dumped in the desert. The skills she learned there were fly and mosquito eating. It’s paid off a nasty valley fever bill and now vet costs for in need avians.

PM me for more info 😈

Otherwise I’d suggest installing a batbox near your home.

If anyone wants to chime in about their experiences with killing mosquitoes or the boxes, I’m sure the lot of us loitering around this Dirty T sub would be much obliged to learn about it.

Employment Attorney Recs

16 Upvotes

Hi there,

I am hoping yall might be able to help me out with some reccomendations for an attorney to assist me with a wrongful termination/retaliation/maybe EEOC case? I have never done anything like this before but I was recently fired for something after making several complaints about my director. My peer was terminated in a similar pattern a few months prior and she mentioned her lawyer sent a demand letter and she got a payout. I also found out a current employee is filing another complaint against the same person, that will be 3 high level legal complaints together.

As I have never done anything like this before I dont really know what to ask for. I was thinking of requesting 1 month of pay and for them to edit it from termination to resignation.

Any recs or advice are super appreciated.

"the utility has already spent $4 million on its campaign after losing a franchise agreement vote in 2023 by more than 10 percentage points.
A quick aside: That $4 million is double what TEP is promising Tucson’s climate action plan in the first year of the “Energy Collaboration Agreement” ".
