Recommendation/Review Free things to do in OKC
I compiled a document focused on free community meetups (free things you can do while meeting people)
for that reason, I havent included many (if any) solo free things to do (such as going to parks or libraries) since this list is supposed to be community-building-oriented
uf you have things to add please lmk and I will get to it when I can!
The list is long so it is in Docs form

I don't know if I was doing something wrong, but to avoid going back to Edmond where I will get high anywhere I go, I decided to stay in downtown and try and get admitted into detox. All day. No luck. Used all my money ubering everywhere. Got just enough to get back Edmond OK t looks like. Yay! I'm so ready to just fall asleep and not wake up

Animal Welfare 🐶🐱🐸 PETITO Quail Springs Mall
WHO still buys puppies from here?!? I can’t believe this store is still open, the puppies are clawing at the window and eating the hay like material at the bottom of their cage. Do they go on walks or get out to play at all?

I have several prom dresses I would like to donate somewhere besides Goodwill. Is there a place that allows lower income high schoolers to browse for prom dresses that they otherwise wouldn’t be able to afford?

🚗 Streets of OKC 🚧 Rainbow Records &Tapes...
I bought my reel tapes and my first cassettes and box set CDs and more records than I can count there and found lots of great bands and venues through their bulletin boards.
I'm gonna miss what they represent more than I can ever explain.

Recommendation/Review short term rentals??
me and my roommate are moving out of state in 7 months, our current landlord is so horrible and we will not be renewing our lease, so we’re in search of a place that will sign a 6 month lease, houses, duplex, apartments. it doesn’t matter. neither does location. any leads would be appreciated

🚗 Streets of OKC 🚧 Maybe an unpopular opinion but The Gold Dome should be razed.
It’s been an abandoned eyesore for twenty years on a major street corner. It’s also been a hot potato for grifters. If it couldn’t have been saved over that time with a 2% interest rate, it’s definitely not going to be now.
Do I wish it could have been saved? Absolutely. But the cancer has metastasized. The corpse needs buried. Obviously the problems with the building itself are restrictively, astronomically expensive. The gold isn’t gold anymore. It’s the patina of a paint huffer’s face. Stage Center was an entirely more interesting building, but it’s gone and we’ve moved on. It’s time for the Gold Dome to go and something useful and desirable for the community to go up in its place. If George Harrison taught us anything, it’s that all things must pass. Time for this one to go, despite its unique existence. Tears in rain.

🍽️ Food/Drink 🥂 Restaurants Open on Thanksgiving?
I know, I know. This is months away but I’m a planner!
Historically, are there any decent restaurants open on Thanksgiving? My dad is coming into town and wants to go out to eat. Plus it’s cheaper than buying a new oven (which I need to do at some point).
Thanks in advance!

News 📰 SoonerCare Starting Jan 1st
Hey y’all. Here to update anyone who hasn’t gotten the letter yet or doesn’t keep up with this stuff, that we’re now pulling a SNAPs on Medicaid. Starting Jan 1st, 2027 you have to have one of the following work requirements:
* Have a monthly income of $580
* Be a seasonal worker and have an avg monthly income over the previous 6 months that is at least $580
* Work at least 80 hours
* Complete at least 80 hours of community service
* Participate in a work program for at least 80 hours
* Be actively enrolled in an educational program at least half-time
*Engage in any combination of the above for at least a total of 80 hours.
I’ll also share the pictures of the letter as well that has this information and a little more.
This was mailed to me yesterday by the way.
I’m extremely concerned and frustrated over this. I may only be 21, but I work with the homeless and it’s already tough to get them food. Now they’re losing the insurance that they literally need so badly.

❓Q&A ✅ Place to watch Arkansas football
This is my first football season in OKC since moving from Arkansas. Can anyone recommend a place to watch razorback games? I haven't hit up the sports bars in town.
Edit: not expecting a razorback bar, just need the actual names of some sports bars you would recommend that would be a good chance of catching the hogs (not while a OU or OSU game is on)
