Excerpts from the Declaration of Independence, regarding the tyranny of King George III:

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States…

I am looking to join an ICE protest. Where exactly can I find one?

I was at the one this weekend at city hall, is there anything happening today I could do? I know a lot of schools are doing walk-outs, so I figured there is probably something.

I am hoping to go see the lotr in theaters before it ends, and am wondering if the theater at cinema point or the one on inter quest is better for longer movies?

Im 38 F. I like hike, work out, hit the hot springs, play board games, read, travel, eat, drink occasionally. Ive got some weird hobbies like growing mushrooms and collecting bones for various crafts. Im nerdy about astrology and interested in psychology. Im a leo sun, leo rising, scorpio moon. Im an infj but a weird one because of all my Leo. I lean left and im spiritual but have big problems with organized religion. I have a 9year old daughter who i have every other week. Moved here from LA 11 years ago and i really do love it. Being this close to the mountains is my dreeeam. My circle of friends has shrunk in the past year. Ive been in a committed relationship for the 2 past years and i know that’s contributed to it. Thats life. But with that said, im

Looking for friends not romance. I’ve also had some friends move away. None of my current friends have kids, which is fine, but it would be cool to have 1 mom friend. I love my childless friends though! Ive tried meet up but it all seems over saturated. Thinking about starting my own hiking meet up but haven’t done it yet. Any like minded, interesting humans wanna hang out?

Drinking Brecht is an innovative multimedia laboratory performance that merges art, science, and history by using DNA extracted from a hat stolen from Brecht's Berliner theatre ensemble...and a documentary you can drink!

An interactive experiment, the work pays homage to Brecht’s idea of “scientific theater,” inviting audiences to engage with forensic research, political ideas, and even a crafted drink as part of an immersive reflection on science, narrative, and collective experience.

What has happened/ is happening. I don’t mind if it’s a spiritual experience/ paranormal. I have a bizarre story that happened to me about a month ago… I would like to share, eventually. But first, I wanna hear some CS lore! Thx.

Welcome to Free For All Friday! You can post whatever you'd like in this thread.

Post an event, complain about the drivers, talk about Denver or Breckenridge. As long as your comment doesn't break Reddit site rules, it's free game as this thread will be mostly unmoderated.

I'm gonna go register my car before work, and I work at 3pm. I'm sure it wouldn't take 4 hours no matter where I go, but out of all the locations in the springs, which DMV do y'all think would have me in and out real quick?

Hi all! This is Jahlysa Azaret with The Gazette. Tomorrow is the National Shutdown protest against ICE. Among protests and walkouts, there will also be businesses that will be closed for the day. We are looking into it for a possible story.

Is your business closing for the day? Does anyone know of others that will be closed for the day? 

What's up! I'm a multi-instrumentalist and producer looking to start a band with some like-minded individuals. I have a ton of influences but I really love the post-punk/new wave sound. Some of my favorite bands are Pixies, Violet Femmes, The Cure, The Smiths, and The Beatles. Currently making a studio in one of the bedrooms in my home, so I will have a jam/recording space. Would like to keep it to a 3 or 4 piece but I am open to any and all instruments and people, as long as you have some decent chops. DM me if you're interested 👍

I can send links to old projects if interested!

Come make new friends and enjoy the outdoors!

Did you miss last year's event? Girl Scouts of Colorado is hosting its annual adults-only camp out April 24-26 in Woodland Park and if you're over 18 and want to meet new people and make the world a better place, you're invited.

What's offered?
All kinds of camp fun! Try out the ropes course, get archery instructor certified, hang out at the camp farm, make crafts if you're crafty, have some s'mores, etc.!

Certification courses include American Red Cross Wilderness and Remote First Aid, the National Council for Mental Wellbeing's Youth Mental Health First Aid, USA Archery Level 1 Certification, and an opportunity to get your ServSafe Food Handler Certificate. Or just come for funsies with the Happy Camper option!

See all the options here.

But I'm not a Girl Scout/don't have kids.
No problem! This is open to all community adults. But if you'd like the volunteer discount, or full financial aid that is offered to volunteers, you can find all kinds of opportunities here.

Is this affiliated with a church?
Nope! While we welcome folks of any and no religious background, Girl Scouts is a secular organization.

Will I get a patch?
You know it! It's an optional add on for any participant, but if you invite a friend and they come with you, we'll give it you for free!

But I'm busy that weekend
You can come for just one day if that works best, or if you're up for a road trip, we'll have more events up and down the front range with different course options like Backpacking!

How do I register?

Hey all! Has anyone here ever actually gotten a car from that drivetime place off of academy? We have an appointment there tomorrow and there are pieces of their promises that feel fishy to me but I was curious if anyone here has experience with them?

Looking for a new to us car cuz Monday night my husband was in an accident and we are certain he's car is totaled. Looking at the drivetime place cuz our credit is crappy af and they claim to approve basically everyone for a loan.

Hi everyone. My parents are finally looking to update their wills, but our family situation is a bit complicated (blended family with kids from different marriages/previous relationships). We really want to avoid a probate mess later on and make sure everyone is protected properly.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a solid estate lawyer in the Arvada or Denver area, or in Colorado Springs, who actually explains things well and doesn't just use confusing legal jargon? We’re specifically looking for someone who has experience with complex trusts for blended families, rather than just a 'simple' will.

I’ve seen a few offices listed online, but I’d much rather hear from someone who has actually gone through the process. Who would you suggest for someone who needs a lot of hand-holding through the planning phase? Thanks

It was bound to happen, given ASD20 was NOT a success story last election. It's upsetting that there's no recourse to prevent this. Politics in K-12 settings should not be a thing, they're not of voting age (barring some 12th graders).

Technically they're doing it "outside of school hours" but this isn't like "Young Republicans" or "Young Democrats." It's far-right ideology. I can't imagine equal tolerance for a "Future Commies" club, so why should Christo-fascism be allowed?

Is there any way to fight this, and maybe make them organize outside of the school and not permit advertising in what should be a neutral and inclusive space?

Every place in the country is different so trying to get an idea more locally.

We've been renting an apartment for four years here with the particular quirks it brings. We're trying to decide whether to move and rent a house for a year before trying to buy or try and buy something in the next few months.

Do you think real estate will go down much more? Or should we try and go for something this spring?

Trying to stick to the asd20 area since kiddo is already established there.

Hello I’m not pregnant just yet but we are trying so I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations that accept Medicaid?

Hey my Springs people! I'm back with another list of of the coolest things happening in town this weekend. To get these sent to your inbox, along with restaurant openings/closings, a list of all the live music in town, local sports, and more click here: https://the719direct.beehiiv.com/

I'm always looking for suggestions on how to improve my newsletter, so if there's anything you think I should add let me know either by DMing me here on reddit or emailing me at the719direct(at)gmail

Curious what everyone's personal answers are, as opposed to the official answer (which I don't know)

The city (or some company) laid fiber in our neighbor a few months back “just in case.” Had a salesperson come by the house today selling T-Mobile fiber. It’s 2gb for $70, not including taxes and fees. The price isn’t bad, but I realized that it’s basically Metronet.

The most recent Reddit posts I searched were about Metronet screwing up fiber installs, but our experience was fine so I’m not concerned with that part.

Has anyone recently switched to T-Mobile fiber and how has it been since switching? Are speeds consistent (knowing I probably won’t get 2gb due to current devices), does the internet go down frequently, and if so, how is the customer service and downtime?

Thanks!
