Butterfly Rehabilitation

22 Upvotes

This might be a long shot, but figured it wouldn’t hurt to try.

Yesterday, my pup accidentally stomped a butterfly. I was hoping maybe it was just stunned, but when I looked again today I saw that she didn’t make it. So what I’m wondering is if there is anyone here in town that does butterfly “rehabilitation“ where you repair damaged wings of living butterflies with intact wings from dead ones.

The left wing is really damaged, but the right one is still perfectly intact! I’d love to be able to help out some other butterflies with this beauty. Photos show when I thought it might just be stunned and then after I collected it today.

Does anyone want to play some board games, or maybe some uno? I already have some cards that I haven't used yet and I really want to play with someone. We could do it on a Tuesday afternoon.

Drag Club

Middle aged woman looking for folks who like to dance and sing and harbor fantasies of performing in drag à la Chappell Roan.

I’m thinking once a month we do karaoke at Lumpia House on a Friday, the next month we find a club and go dancing on a Friday. I would love to work up to performing in a drag show. I am not looking for romance.

Drag Club has two rules and a suggestion:

1) We go by aliases.
2) If we know one another outside of Drag Club we pretend we don’t.
3) Costumes.

Larping at Lincoln Park?

10 Upvotes

I took my child to the Nelson Center today and I think people were larping in the park. My younger brother is a young adult and doesn't have a lot of friends. I think he would really enjoy larping and could make some friends if he joined. How would one get involved?

Looking for Volunteer/Service Hours!!

Hello! I have a friend who put off volunteering from freshman-junior year, and now needs 60 service hours to graduate…
So, I’ve decided to help them, but I got my hours from teacher aiding, managing, and other things that they are unable to do now that the school year has started and those roles have filled.
So,
does anyone know of any service opportunities she can sign up for? Thanks!!!

Pokemon DS/3DS games?

Greetings everyone. I'm looking to see if anyone knows where I could buy some authentic genuine (real not fake) Pokemon games for the Nintendo DS and 3DS? I've called Pawn Shops with no luck, seeing if anyone could recommend some other places here in town?

Any place in town that sells games/consoles, and would buy old consoles as well? I have seen some of the tabletop game stores but unsure if they sell gaming consoles and such.

WPBL bobblehead trade request

5 Upvotes

I posted this in r/WPBL, but I figured I'd cast a wider net, just in case some local folks may have gone to these games, but don't follow the league closely.

I'm hoping somebody can help me out and I can help somebody out.

  • I'm looking for an Ayami Sato from the August 8th game.
  • Probably a Hyeonah Kim from tomorrow night's game. (We will be out of town and I'm pretty sure we won't be back in time.)

If you can help me with either of those, here is what I can offer in return:

  • Kelsie Whitmore
  • Ashton Lansdell
  • Alli Schroder
  • I have a couple of foul balls that I may be willing to part with one
  • I have non-WPBL bobbleheads from our local teams, if that is your interest

I don't use any other socials, so if you know of one available, I'd appreciate any help.

Not only is the WPBL awesome, but I have been collecting bobbleheads from our local teams going back to the Speedy days of the Springfield Sliders. I'd love to keep my streak alive.

Anyone handy with car repairs? Power seat motor stopped working

2 Upvotes

Hey everyone! My car’s power seat/motor decided to stop working, and I’m hoping it might be something fixable without taking it straight to a shop.
I’d love to try fixing it, but I don’t have the tools (or quite enough experience 😅).
Anyone around who enjoys working on cars and would be willing to help me take a look at it? Just trying to save a few bucks and hopefully learn something along the way!
Happy to buy you coffee/lunch for the help 🙌
Thanks!
