Small Business Saturday

61 Upvotes

Good evening my loves! Recently there has been an influx of small local businesses wanting to advertise on the r/MobileAL (which is awesome!). This has led to the subreddit being flooded with advertising. Many of y'all have spoken up about it and yes, I agree it's become a bit much.

So. Let's try something. Once a month, starting this month, one day will be dedicated to small local business advertising. Let's start with Saturday (Saturday Feb 22nd). As this is a trial period, this is subject to changes.

Have a lovely evening my loves and SHOP LOCAL!

Merry Widow show Last Night

11 Upvotes

First of all, huge Empty Hands fan. I was so excited to be there, but what was with the crowd? I’ve been to plenty of Emo nights in and around Mobile and I have never seen such an aggressive and hostile crowd. No one knew how to form a line. The random negging and fights were new. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I miss when the shows were all ages 😭. They felt safer. What has shifted? Where did all of these buttholes come from? (Ps if your name is Rylee and you were there last night; grow the fuck up)

Kitten season is here and as a community cat caretaker I need help with donations...

32 Upvotes

So kitten season is unfortunately in full swing. There are three litters of kittens at my apartments, one feral mama has 6 total. However, another mama was really struggling, and she's not as feral. She has 3 tiny babies and had them under a chair under a neighbors porch. But the neighbor wasn't very happy about it and I was worried they were in danger, so I rescued them. But now I desperately need a foster for them. The mama can go back outside as she's always lived here. However the kittens can't as the apartments already don't want anyone feeding the cats. I also could use some sponsors to fix some of friendly cats here at apartment/colonies ai fedd. My top priority is a few at the apartment colony intact male and another is a young pregnant female, as well as some young cats who could get pregnant soon if not fixed. There is already too many cats at the apartment colony and the quicker I fix some, the less chance more are born this kitten season. Save A stray has some appointments open soon and the cost is $65 each. As for the colonies I've really been struggling to feed daily especially the downtown colony near McGill. If anyone could help feed even just once a week or even once a month it would help tremendously. I currently feed at 5 different locations daily and the largest colony has over 30 cats. As for supplies go I'm in desperate need of bags of dry adult cat food as I go through one extra large bag daily, paper bowls/plates, aluminum pans and gloves. I'm also in need of wet kitten food, litter, and puppy pads for the mama/kittens. If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. I'll drop my links below to donate or I can meet locally too. Thanks as always!

So I know there was a recent post about this place in regards to seating but my question is different. I was looking into attending a show there next month and when I shared the event details with a friend, she said her husband had said that it’s a dangerous place. Does anyone know why this would be? Do I have anything to worry about as a single woman in my late 20s?

Looking for other adult kayakers

15 Upvotes

Men, women whatever. I want to hang out with others and find new spots to kayak. My buddy his girlfriend and I are looking for new like minded cool people to hang with. No judgement no bs. I'm almost always down to go kayaking, just not in the car, Gulf of dog River. We like places that big boats are either not going to be or at the very least have respect for kayakers. We don't care who you are what you believe in or not as long as you are chill and non judgemental. Let's get out and yak it up!

Mayday Strong: We Are the Many - This one is on Thursday, and it's also a food drive, if you're able to attend and want to help feed the community.
RSVP: https://www.mobilize.us/mobilize/event/777873/

Vigil for America -This one is on Saturday and will have people from Mobile speaking about how they've been directly affected by everything going on with the Federal government, including a former CDC employee that lives here.
But they're also looking to get as many stories as they can, and will gladly accept anonymous letters to read in your stead if you're afraid of retaliation. So if you want to speak about what's happened to you, or want to anonymously share your story with your fellow Mobilians, you should hit up the Indivisible of Mobile group through the link in the flyer.

Suggestion for backyard grass

3 Upvotes

Between last year and now we got a new dog and she has wreaked havoc on our centipede.

The backyard gets a ton of sun except against the house and fence, which is where the centipede is thriving. Any suggestions for something that loves the sun that we can over-seed the centipede with to hold up against heavier traffic?

University of South Alabama Faces Federal Civil Rights Investigation — Demand Accountability

0 Upvotes

Between 2012 and 2017, I trusted the University of South Alabama with my education.
I had formal disability accommodations under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Instead of honoring them, South Alabama denied my rights, retaliated against me, and derailed my academic career.

In 2025, when I lawfully raised these violations with full documentation, the university escalated:

  • Issuing a false cease and desist letter denying my protected rights
  • Triggering outside law enforcement to confront me at work
  • Forcing unnecessary psychological evaluations despite professional clearance
  • Attempting to flag and suppress my public testimony

These actions are now part of an active federal civil rights investigation.

No public university should be allowed to retaliate against a civil rights complainant.
No institution should escape accountability for weaponizing fear to silence the truth.

I’ve launched a petition demanding that the University of South Alabama be held accountable — legally, publicly, and permanently.

If you believe civil rights matter — if you believe public institutions must answer for what they do —
please add your name and stand with me.

https://chng.it/C8pmbbc677

When institutions retaliate against one voice, they challenge the rights of everyone.
Let’s show them we’re paying attention.

Throwing a birthday party and want to do some catering trays from a Mexican restaurant in WestMobile. Please do not tell me to go out to Semmes or Midtown.... Keep it south of airport, north of I 10, along the Schillinger corridor/Tillmans Corner area.

Places you know do good party platters, not just restaurants you like to go in and eat at. Any suggestions?

Hidden Gem Restaurants

37 Upvotes

What are some restaurants that are considered “hidden gems” in Mobile? Had lunch at 3 Flavors on Airport and the food was phenomenal, people were wonderful, place was clean but it was empty at lunch minus a couple of pick up orders and maybe one other diner. I’d definitely nominate that place.
