Guys marathon is happening and you will be stuck for a while. Avoid until at least 12:30pm

After closing a few years ago because of a greedy landlord at their original location, Thai Restaurant is about to reopen across from Normal's! Can't wait to see what they do with the space, or to eat their drunken noodles again.

I’ve seen some posts that made me think that this may not be common knowledge. So, I thought I’d share. If you have experienced homelessness or have any other insights, perspectives, or resources PLEASE share.

How to support our unhoused neighbors:

1. Do not make assumptions about what got them to this situation or why they are still in it. Not all unhoused individuals use substances or have mental illness, and if they do they should still be treated with dignity and respect.
2. Is there someone you see regularly in your neighborhood? On your commute? If you feel safe to do so, ask if there is anything they need. If you don’t feel safe to do so, leave them alone.
3. Keep supplies in your car or on your person. Some examples: non perishable food, narcan, bus passes, cash, socks, gloves, hand warmers, hats, first aid supplies, etc. A brief exchange at a stoplight could be life saving.
4. Understand our city’s resources. Baltimore has a lot of resources for the unhoused community. Calling 211 can get you connected to resources 24/7. A quick google can connect you with organizations such as Beans and Bread, St Vincent DePaul, Healthcare for the Homeless, Manna House.
5. Know extreme weather resources. Extreme heat is considered Code Red. Here are the resources Extreme Cold is considered Code Blue. Here are the resources
6. There are resources for unhoused individuals with pets. Worried about the pet? Help the person care for their pet. BARCS has a Keeping Pet with Families program that helps keep people and their pets together. This can include housing pets while their owners are in emergency housing or connecting them with pet friendly housing. They also help with access to veterinary care and food. Safe Haven for Pets provides a search engine to find resources for pets whose owners are experiencing homelessness and/or domestic violence.
7. When it comes to emergency mental healthcare, 988 is preferred to 911. 988 can dispatch mobile crisis teams including counselors, social workers, and nurses NOT cops or EMS. 988 will only dispatch cops or EMS if there is an active threat to life. Reportedly this occurs for less than 5% of calls.

Also, what does it even say? I've seen it up everywhere on North Avenue and still can't read it.....

It’s a private member’s only thing?

As the title says... I am looking for the girl who ended being my cuddle buddy the whole ride down from Pittsburgh to Baltimore on the Greyhound @1:30am on Tuesday 10/13/2026. Your name is Destiny. You asked if you could lay your head on my shoulder. I said yes. I offered you my black Carhartt sweatshirt to cover up since you were cold and had no jacket. You threw it on and it was a big sweatshirt so you curled up in it & cuddled up next to me the whole trip. I never got your number & would like to take you out for a bite to eat or a coffee possibly if you're interested. I hope I find you. -Ryan :)

What coffee shoos are open before 8am on Saturdays? I visited three (good boy bagels, 1Do, and last resort was Starbucks in Safeway) none of which were open. Opening a coffee shop at 8 seems a bit absurd to me. Nonetheless, I know Cafe Dear Leon opens at 6 however usually a long line to justify waiting in for a coffee.

If you are a coffee shop owner you should really consider opening at 7am.

I live along the race route and this is the first year I've seen the race run in cold, wet weather. I hope Baltimore turns out like it usually does to make the event memorable for the racers.

a coworker has asked me to share this in hopes anyone has some information. please share.

Dear all,
I have lived in Baltimore from January 1st 2026 until 28th June 2026.
I am from Spain, Barcelona, and my company sent me there. It was my first time living in America and I cannot be happier with that experience. Everybody was so cool with me from the beginning. I went there with my wife and we had so much fun. We felt like we were at home.
Thank you for everything, Baltimore. Thank you for the food, friends and unforgettable memories.
I really hope to come back, even if now is really complicated!

Greatest City in America!!

Who are the runners in green and navy stripes??

I need one as a prop and have no idea where to find one! Happy to buy, borrow, or rent for a few days.

Looking for an in-person Korean tutor to meet at least once a week somewhere in/near the city.

I'm just starting to learn it and would benefit more from some in-person sessions than paying for online.

CCBC has paused their Korean language classes and don't see anything else recent in this sub. If there are other suggestions, I'd love to hear!

Can anyone recommend a hand car detailer in 21211, 21210 or 21218? I’d prefer not to go the Wash Works route.

Hi, this may be an odd post, and I also could be highly sensitive to smells, but I’ve noticed that there’s been strange smell in theCanton and fells area for the past couple days.

The only way I can really describe it- is that it smells like soy sauce. I won’t lie, It’s a bit of a nauseating smell, but I’ve noticed it in my neighborhood and I’ve also noticed it the other night when my Boyfriend and I went out on a date in Fells point.

I figure that the city may be burning something, but it’s a terrible smell. I’m wondering if anyone knows what it is??

Hi, everyone! I am currently searching for a therapist and I have run into a bit of a hurdle I was hoping you guys could help me overcome. It seems like every therapy office I am finding is a 15+ minute walk from public transit, which I can't do due to physical limitations. Does anyone know of a therapy office that is really close to public transit? Major plus if it's on the east side of Baltimore City or County since I'm located in Eastern Baltimore County. I can figure out insurance and if the recommended offices have a therapist that would seem like a good fit on my own, I am just struggling with the accessibility. Thank you :)
