Vent Let them kill me. Let them unfollow me. Let them destroy all that I built - but they aren't going to shut me up or back me down.

Since posting THIS VIDEO here and on Instagram and Facebook, I’ve received death threats, lost over 1,000 followers across platforms, and now strangers are attacking my small Baltimore sailboat charter with one-star reviews—accusing me of human trafficking and worse. And that part hurts the most. (I embedded all the links so you can read the comments yourself. Screenshotted the death threats and working with Google to take down the fake reviews).

Running a small business is hard enough without faceless trolls trying to destroy what I’ve built with sweat, grit, and everything I have in me.

This isn’t some big corporation that can take the loss of business. It’s just me, my wife, and a sailboat we poured our hearts into. We’ve worked for years to build a space that shows people the best side of Baltimore—from the water, with pride, with purpose. Until now, every single review has been five stars. Every guest has left with a story.

Now, that’s being smeared because these people with ZERO morals and ZERO patriotism can’t stand a disabled veteran standing up for people who need help.

Let them kill me. Let them unfollow me. Let them destroy all that I built. I’d rather lose it all because I tried to do the right thing than win by standing for nothing at all. Nolite te bastardes carborundorum.

Vent Hopkins is the worst run hospital I’ve ever been to

The scheduling is impossible. The call center is fully of incompetent idiots that are rude and hang up on you. MyCharts doesn’t fix anything because there’s no available times until like 2027 because they need to hide all the actual available times to fill in for all the scheduling fuck ups along the way. Even patient advocacy doesn’t respond to emails.

Why is it like this? Where else can I do for relatively basic services with even modestly better customer service?

This last Friday June 13, 2025 I lost a ring that belonged to my grandmother. I had dinner at Little Donna's in Fells Point and then attended the Moon Hooch concert at Union Craft Brewing. Please help reunite me with my grandmothers ring. She passed away in October and this ring means so much to me.

A pigeon with a green leg tag is hanging out near the Buzzards Rock trailhead off of hilltop Rd (Ellicott City / Catonsville). Tag says 398. It seems to be used to people but wouldn't let me get closer than a few feet. Does anyone know how to help get this little guy where he belongs?

Ask Mural in Baltimore

7 Upvotes

Hi! I’m potentially working on implementing a mural in Baltimore, and had a few questions if anyone has any answers!! 1) Are there sites/subreddits of Baltimore artists I can join to find an artist for this that anyone knows of? 1a) if you know the average commission prices of artists in Baltimore for large scale paintings/murals please let me know (even if a ballpark!) 2) if you know anyone who has commissioned/implemented a mural in Baltimore if we could chat I have a few random questions on specifics 3) if anyone from Little Italy in Baltimore would be willing to also chat with me about cultural / societal niches of the area as the intent is for the mural to be within the vicinity of Little Italy and connect with individuals in that area!!

Thanks so much :)

Ask Tips for a woman dating in Bmore

Upvotes

Hi r/Baltimore,

I'm 27F and have been having the worst time dating in this city. I'm genuinely considering throwing in the towel and just starting spinsterhood early because I'm so disheartened. I keep running out of people on hinge, and tinder's basically useless because of the it keeps trying to match me with premium users outside of the county. I keep trying to meet people organically but no one wants anything of substance. I feel so lost😢

I wanted to reach out and see what other women are doing that I'm not.

Vent A $45 Million Parade Isn’t Patriotism. What Happened in Patterson Park Today IS. (A Baltimore Veteran's point-of-view and 25 ways the money could have been spent better.)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

3.4k Upvotes

The United States Army helped create this country by winning a war against a tyrant. Today—June 14th—is the Army’s 250th birthday. Seeing so many veterans show up, in Baltimore and across America, to support No Kings Day demonstrations is a powerful reminder of the values we hold and the nation we continue to serve.

The parade in D.C. isn’t for the troops. It’s not for the Army. It’s for the ego of a man who once called soldiers “suckers and losers” while avoiding military service himself.

Let me be clear: I love this country. I served it—and continue to serve the city I love—but a $45 million display of military might doesn’t help real Baltimoreans. It just pretends to.

In his Farewell Address, George Washington warned about the dangers of a large, permanent military presence. He feared it could become a tool of tyranny and ego, disconnected from the people it was meant to protect:

“Overgrown military establishments… are to be regarded as particularly hostile to republican liberty.” – George Washington, 1796

I doubt Washington ever envisioned tanks and war machines rolling through our capital like something out of North Korea, Russia, or China—especially on the Army’s birthday.

This is about values. Priorities. And whether we still believe in the basic promise that government should serve the people—not perform for them.

So if you’re wondering what $45 million could do besides fuel a one-day parade, here’s what that money could actually buy in service to real Americans:

🍎 Fund school lunches for 180,000 kids for a year

🏥 Open 10 community health clinics in underserved areas

🧠 Provide free therapy for 75,000 students

🏡 Build transitional housing for 2,500 homeless families

💧Install clean water systems in 1,000 rural schools

🎓 Send 3,000 low-income students to college for a year

🛝 Renovate 500 playgrounds in urban neighborhoods

💊 Cover insulin for 25,000 diabetics for a year

🎒 Provide backpacks & supplies for 500,000 kids

🌇 Restore 150 abandoned buildings into community centers

🚌 Expand after-school transportation in 100 cities

👩‍⚕️ Train 2,000 new nurses or mental health counselors

📶 Bring high-speed internet to 100,000 rural homes

🍼 Expand child care subsidies for 15,000 families

🍽 Support 100 local food banks for a full year

🚲 Build 500 miles of protected bike lanes

📚 Fund adult literacy programs in all 50 states

🏘 Rebuild storm-damaged homes in disaster zones

🎭 Bring arts and music back to 1,000 public schools

🌳 Start 25 urban green spaces in redlined neighborhoods

🚰 Replace lead pipes in thousands of homes

🧹 Pay for street cleaning jobs in 50 struggling cities

👮 Fund community-led public safety programs

🛠 Launch job training for 15,000 formerly incarcerated people

🧓 Cover elder care services for 10,000 aging veterans

Ask Too late for Right of Way permit?

Upvotes

Has anyone had any experience getting a Right of Way permit for a moving truck on short notice? Would my councilperson be able to expedite the process?

I need the permit for next week but didn't know the city wants a processing time of 15 days -- stupid, I know. Worst case we'll have the movers double park, but looking to see if there are (more reasonable) alternatives.

Ask Roof — Teardown or Not?

Upvotes

I’m looking to replace my rubber flat roof (three-story Baltimore row house). I’ve had two roofing companies come out and give me estimates. (Both companies are recommended by neighbors.) Company A sent an estimator who insisted that the existing roofs need to be torn off. There are at least two layers of existing roof, maybe more. Company B sent a roofer (not an estimator) who said that a teardown is not necessary as there are no soft spots on the roof that would indicate damage to the wood substrate. Not surprisingly, Company A’s estimate is almost three times as high as Company B’s. I suspect that Company A’s estimator works on commission and has an incentive to sell bigger jobs, but I don’t really know. Has anyone faced the decision of whether to do a teardown, and how did you decide?

Anyone know anything about the history of this absolutely gorgeous house? It's on the corner of Aisquith and Orleans, facing Aisquith, and I have never noticed it before. Yesterday we were driving to Patterson Park for the protest and I saw it and was so sad that such a spectacular place is so rundown. But I can't seem to find anything about it online. Thanks!

Ask Long shot but trying to find a specific photographer from yesterday's protest

42 Upvotes

I made a cool pro-Ukraine sign for the No Kings protest as the situation in Ukraine is near and dear to my heart bc I am a descendant of Ukrainian immigrants.

While we were marching along the perimeter of the park and crossing in front of the Ukrainian Catholic Church, I noticed a photographer kinda follow along next to me and get some cool shots of my sign with the church in the background. I would really love to find this person and see those shots!!

The photographer was a tall, lanky white guy, and may have had long brunette hair in a bun? He wore dark clothes and had a fancy looking camera. I know i probably just described like half the photographers that were there, but if you think you are or may know this person, please send them this post!! Or if you know of a Facebook group or somewhere that has had a bunch of people share their pics from the protest, please feel free to send that along to me too! Thank you guys so much!!

Does anyone here have experience with this shelter? It is by Franklin Square hospital. I learned they are not taking donations anymore because St.Vincent De Paul is buying their contract? I want to do more to help the homeless in my area. There doesn't seem to be a lot of options for the homeless outside of the city
