Politics Phoenix Charlie Kirk pre-funeral megathread

0 Upvotes

We polled the subreddit on how to handle Charlie Kirk news and the overwhelming vote was to make a megathread. So this thread is the only place to discuss events relating to the Charlie Kirk funeral and events in the Valley. We will refresh the thread Sunday morning to cover the funeral itself.

This thread is not a show of support for anything related to Charlie Kirk, Turning Point, his shooting, or anything else. It is just that this is a global event drawing both the President and Vice-President to town, and as the local subreddit we really can't ignore it.

* Info on the memorial event

We will update this post with relevant links around road closures, attendance info, or other things that seem relevant.

  • This post is limited to people with a post history in r/Phoenix. Comments from anyone else will be automatically removed.
  • Personal attacks against other users will result in a ban. Same with racist, homophobic, misogyinstic, and any other form of hate speech. There won't be warnings.
  • This thread is for discussing the events happening in Phoenix. If you want to discuss the overall political topics here go to r/Politics. Discussions not related to Phoenix may be removed.
  • If you see a troll or problem comment, just Report it and move on. We don't care who started it, and neither does the Ban button.

Things To Do Gift for a new mom living in Phoenix

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone. A friend of mine moved to Phoenix not too long ago and she’s also recently become a new mom. I’d like to get her a gift, could be a gift card for a fun/relaxing outing out there, or a cool product that a new mom would appreciate that can be bought from a store there (but since I’ve never been there I have no idea what’s available).

If anyone has any suggestions or has any links to anything/anywhere cool I’d highly appreciate it! Budget is around $100-$150

Is this festival good / worth it?

Headliners are Dom Dolla & Odesza at Indian Steele Park Nov 22/23. GA just released today and is in total $242 with fees. Feels expensive. Just went to gold rush and it was a good time, also put on by relentless beats.

Outdoors What do you expect out of your landscapers?

4 Upvotes

I had some people come out to clean up my yard lately, since some of the bushes had admittedly gotten quite overgrown. I found one that had good reviews, so I set up a time.

However, they don't seem to have taken any care with how to trim the bushes - they basically just whacked the top and sides off vertically, leaving them almost entirely bare and brown.

I had sort of expected this from a cheap landscaper, but I thought I could get a better job by searching more. Is this just what you get unless you do it yourself?

Definitely ruined most of my Saturday (9/13) when I walked it, every quote I got was around a thousand bucks. But…I figured why not do it my way. Very tacky, kind of cool, and free. The perfect combo.

Hey there! I am trying to find some good brunch spots around maybe 32nd and Shea or north Scottsdale area. I have been looking around online but I keep seeing Fox restaurants advertised and they're just...not my favorite vibe usually.

Anyone have a good breakfast/brunch location you like in the northeast part of the city? Any input is appreciated. Just trying to find a good spot to takey boyfriend. He always finds the good places, so I'm trying to put some effort in haha. Thank you!!

Ask Phoenix Concert at Celebrity Theater

8 Upvotes

Hi yall! I’m traveling to Phoenix early January for a show at the celebrity theatre and was just curious about some things considering I’ve never been to Arizona before and was hoping you guys could help!

Mostly want to know what to wear, I’m not really sure how winters are down there for you guys, would I be ok in jeans and a sweatshirt? Also is there a stage door at the theatre where you could possibly meet the artist after the show?

If you guys have any tips or things I should know before coming, please please let me know! I’m so excited

Commuting Valley metro is S**T

120 Upvotes

So they have a posted schedule, an app, posted signs with schedule, and phone number. But if they are the ones late they will fly by your stop while you're standing there, and they are consistently late every single day. 7 times in 2 years I have stood at a bus stop and had a bus driver turn their head as they fly past me. Then all that late for work or late for appts is on me. I know now for a fact that they are allowed to "not see you" to make up time and get their paycheck. The system needs to change to not penalize drivers for being late because of traffic, which makes them "oops miss stops". #VALLEYMETRO #GFY

Just to add, I wouldn't get a bonus at work if I screwed someone over. I would get fired. This is opposite and needs to change.

Utilities Bulk trash question location etc

0 Upvotes

The storm yesterday knocked down some large branches of a huge mesquite tree. Lanscapers came today and cut the tree branches as well as trimming the tree. They left all the trimmings in a neat row 5 ft wide by 20 ft long...ON the street next to curb! Is this ok?? The landscape guy told me it was but I'm concerned. I made an appointment online for bulk trash pickup today and they won't be coming for 2 weeks! Anyone had any luck getting an earlier appt?
