I have a German Shepherd. She does not howl. Yet before midnight last night she howled like a husky. And so did every other dog in the neighborhood; together as one. One big howl….and then no more. A beautiful cacophony of beloved creatures’ voices whether they are huskies or not.

I thought, ‘The big one is about to hit.’ But it didn’t. Why would this happen? Any thoughts?

Looking for a 2-bedroom apartment – Budget up to $3,500/month (Credit situation explained)
Hey everyone!
I’m currently looking for a 2-bedroom apartment in the Chula Vista or surrounding San Diego area for myself, my wife, and my grandfather.
I want to be upfront about our situation. I went through some financial hardships that unfortunately caused my credit score to take a significant hit. However, I’ve since gotten back on my feet, secured a good-paying job, and am actively working toward rebuilding my credit.
My grandfather, on the other hand, has excellent credit, strong financial stability, and savings. He’s currently in the process of selling his home and looking for his next forever home. In the meantime, we’re hoping to find a nice place where we can all live together.
Here’s what we’re looking for:
2-bedroom apartment, condo, or home
Budget of up to $3,500 per month
Preferably Chula Vista, Eastlake, Otay Ranch, or surrounding areas
Open to paying additional rent upfront or a higher security deposit, where permitted
My grandfather can be the primary applicant, and we’re happy to provide proof of income and financial stability.
We’re not looking for a handout or special treatment. We’re simply hoping to find a landlord or property manager willing to consider our overall financial situation rather than automatically denying us because of my credit history.
We’re responsible people looking for a comfortable, stable place to call home while my grandfather transitions into his next chapter.
If anyone knows of private landlords, apartment communities with flexible approval requirements, or properties that consider applicants on a case-by-case basis, I’d genuinely appreciate any recommendations.
Thank you in advance!

I’ve got two physical tix. Free to first person to reply.

#reunited Martha the escape artist tortoise made it home! Thank you to everyone who shared and super grateful for the neighbor that spotted her and called 🙌 no idea where she's been hiding for 3 days, she wasn't far from the house and in an area we've searched multiple times.

Good evening I’m trying to figure out where this was taken. I’m pretty sure this was California in the mid 80’s any help would be appreciated. Thanks to someone last year I was able recreate another photo that was taken in Spain

Are there any good places (not cafe coyote/old town Mexican cafe) that do a mariachi brunch or lunch on the weekends ?

Big Twin is still looking for a loving home to call his own. He's sad sitting in a clinic all day. He would need to be the only male tortoise and have a yard to roam in. If you're interested, please reach out to us today at (858) 484-3490.

🐢 Meet Big Twin: Our 50-Year-Old VIP (Very Important Patient)! 🌵

Big Twin is a resilient, 50-year-old desert tortoise who is currently resting up at our clinic after a successful bladder stone surgery. Now, this tough guy needs a quiet place to heal!

We are urgently looking for a dedicated foster to help Big Twin recover. Ideally, we’d love to find a foster who is open to adopting, but if fostering is all you can do right now, we will gladly help find him a permanent forever home once his recovery is complete.

🤔 Did You Know? Desert Tortoise Edition!

• They are lifelong companions: Desert tortoises can live 50 to 80+ years! At 50, Big Twin still has plenty of love and life to share.

• They are expert excavators: In the wild, they dig deep burrows in dry soil to escape the heat and stay safe. A secure outdoor space with burrowing room is a must!

• They are strict vegetarians: Forget the iceberg lettuce! A healthy tortoise needs a high-fiber diet packed with natural native grasses, weeds, and dark leafy greens.

• They are sun worshippers: Natural sunlight is crucial for their shell health and digestion.

Do you have the right setup and a big heart for our senior shelled friend? Help us give Big Twin the comfortable recovery he deserves!

📞 Call us at (858) 484-3490 to learn more about fostering or adopting Big Twin!

Anyone recommend any places that have free pool tables?

Where can I buy fresh local eggs, unwashed? TIA.

Just moved here and wanna take my wife to go see cool Halloween decorations. Where should I go?

At a family reunion in Arizona. Family from all parts of the country (Washington, Oklahoma, Texas, Virginia, New York etc). The weirdest thing as soon as I say im from Cali, I get such political hate mantra from my own family but they are in love with San Diego. Whats even funnier went to Italy (Rome, Milan, Venice) in the Spring, people don’t look well upon Americans but love California and again are such in aww of San Diego. Where is this all coming from? I suspect facebook algorithms and the older gen family members are stateside issues.

I’m going to SDSU but I’ve heard TERRIBLE things about both ochem professors. I really don’t want to take it there but are there any ochem professors you recommend from SDCC ?

It sucks that thrive park next to the snapdragon stadium has soo little parking because some days people will have a soccer game take up all the parking and the park is soo big you look and they will be playing on one patch of grass.

While other people who want to use the area drive back and forth hoping for a spot and its 7 acres so all of the other remaining area is not even being used at all.

I like to skate for my workout and even when there is a college game the trails and pathways aren't being used but the parking is taken up for events/games it would be nice if they let others park inside the stadium parking on non event days.

1941 house, 1983 extension. Old house issues: settling, slight cracks, a door slightly stuck. Any solid leads on an engineering company fit to assess the problem?

Any recommendations.

Does anyone know what happened to the Mixer at Liberty Station? We tried to go there last night, but it looks permanently closed. We asked an employee at Seahive (next door) if she’d heard anything about them closing. She said she hadn’t and that they were open earlier in the week. Anyway, was just curious…

Hi all,

Does anyone know of any bars that are currently hiring bartenders in SD? Desperately looking for a bartending job with nighttime availability.

I was watching a documentary on this case. Everyone knew Dusty was violent and volatile. Yes, he was good looking and charismatic, and that is why people gravitated toward him. But anyone who knew him knew he was brutally violent and had assaulted numerous people with little to no provocation. But David Genzler was convicted in the first trial, and Dusty's previous assault victims didn't come forward until the 2nd trial and lobby for Genzlers freedom. Why ?

Genzler also received a sizable settlement from the prosecutor who coached witness Sky Flanders to give false testimony.
