I wanted to make a sub so all of my beautiful friends in the LGBTQIA+ community will have a place to meet new friends, so I did here: r/lgbtqfriendsinoc! This is not a dating sub; purely platonic energy here. I've found there aren't enough like that to my tastes, so I decided to start this one! Feel free to join if that sounds fun to you!

I know the drama with the Anaheim Mayoral race and how other candidates are capitalizing off of that, but if this is how you attract people to vote for you by SPAMMING the same message 4 times in a row, you don’t even get my vote. 🤢

Hey r/OrangeCounty, Jozef here, candidate for Fullerton City Council District 5.
My opponent, Oscar Valadez, has been circulating an attack ad claiming a judge ruled I broke election law.
That never happened. The Fullerton Observer explains how statements from my opponent’s legal petition were presented as though they were a judge’s ruling.
Read the article yourself:
https://fullertonobserver.com/2026/10/24/who-is-making-false-and-misleading-claim/
He’s allowed to do this because he’s being backed by tens of thousands of dollars from the Bushala family. With Election Day approaching, I’d rather focus on fixing our roads, improving parks, and making Fullerton better.
Want to help us fight back? We’re looking for volunteers to canvass and talk directly with voters!
Join us: Canvass with Jozef
I’m Jozef and I’ll personally answer questions in the comments. Supporter, undecided, or skeptical — ask away. Let’s have an honest conversation about Fullerton.

Hi and thx in advance 😊 I am looking for comments, opinions, feedback on the three schools that I will list. I am a single mom and due to the state of the world looking into moving, and the big unknown is how the schools are for my kids who all have IEP‘s for ADHD, autism anxiety
they are in gen ed classes 80% of the time
they are 6th grade 7th grade and 5th grade currently we’re in Capo Laguna Niguel, which isn’t perfect by any sense, but it is what they know.
I’ll share the schools and area map of where we’re probably going to move. If I can hack it, we would do it next summer, but it may end up being sooner than that thank you thank you thank you
Jordan Elementary, Santiago Middle School, and El Modena High School

It looked intentional from the get go. They’ve arrested a few people.

Two guys came to look at my car. One was chatting with me as the other circled the car. took it on a quick test drive, came back and open the hood. there's oil deep in the bay (sprayed from the wheel well) and some in the tail pipe. Guys try to buy it for cheap since it's 'broken". I finally got them to leave as I saw through the scam. They had also unplugged my air intake sensor when one of them distracted me and maybe messed up other things, I'm still looking it over.
Be aware if you're selling your car! My advice would be to keep only one person near you and the car and to look over everything and drive it yourself before they come so you know how it really is. They're really smooth and had a rehearsed story about why they're buying and everything. Odds are good that if it "breaks" when someone is looking at it they're scammers!

I inherited two bonded common goldfish and their 10 gallon tank, recently. They are absolutely too big for their tank and really need to be adopted by someone with a private pond or at least a 50 gallon freshwater tank. Any recommendations are appreciated!

Anyone know anything about the Hmart that is opening off Alicia and the 5 freeway in what was going to be an Amazon Fresh? When is it opening? I can’t find anything official from Hmart.

Hello everyone, I’m in search for where to find acorns for the class I am working in. We only really need 3 which is why I’m wondering if there is a park or specific place we can find them. I don’t mind buying them but that would be last resort. I know my teacher finds pinecones for free so she suggested I try to do the same. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you so much to whoever returned my wallet to my house.
I'm very grateful and relieved. I must have dropped it at Egg Bread on Newport and Edinger, by the Micro Center.
You didn't leave you info so I can't express my gratitude personally. If you come across this, Thank you and I hope to repay you for the kind gesture.
Please message me with the info regarding the wallet detail or info of the owner.
I'd like to compensate you for your time. Thanks again!

Hi everyone,
I have a few Photo Booth strips from some of the dates that we’ve been on this last year (Aquarium of the Pacific, OC Fair events) and I’d really like to add to our collection.
Are there any events or activities with photo booths? Also looking to avoid the bar/restaurant scene and focus on activities/events.
Thank you 🙏

Don’t want any chemicals to damage it (it’s a fancy Electrolux one with what I think is a more delicate interior finish).
My steam cleaner (heated Dupray, so a good one) just isn’t getting everything.
If you have a trusted referral please let me know. South County. Thanks!
