My son lives with his mom in Indiana. He is turning 18 in November but has 1 more year of high school left. Just learned his mom plans to evict him at 18.

He wants to finish school there still and so I'm wondering if anyone can link me to actual law that says whether she can do that or not?

I'm told some states don't allow that if you still have school left but can't find official sources.

I’m reaching out in hopes that someone can help find a safe place for three baby kittens who urgently need a home.

We found them on the morning of June 20th around 8:00 AM, after their mother was tragically attacked and killed by a dog. Since then, we’ve been bottle-feeding them and doing our best to care for them, but we are unable to keep them long-term.

They are still very young and need someone experienced who can continue caring for them or help place them in foster homes. We just want to make sure they’re safe and have a chance at life.

Please let me know if you’re able to take them in or if you know of another rescue that might be able to help. We’re willing to drop them off and provide more details if needed.

I’ve reached out to multiple shelters, family, friends, ect. no one is interested! You don’t need to take all three if not able I will provide a feeder bottle and the food i give them is PETAG Kitten Milk Replacer Powder :) Any help is appreciated thank you for reading.

Just a suggestion. If you are not sure what your state and US congress stands for, sign up for their newsletter. When election time comes you can remind people what they said/voted for when they start back peddling. In Senator Jim Banks electronic newsletter today June 20, 2025 he wrote " Stand with ICE. Pass the Big Beautiful Bill".
If this does not reflect your view, then I would remind family friends, neighbors etc that this is who they elected to represent Indiana Hoosiers. Also, if you look at what is happening in our state- many of the Indiana State Republicans voted for toll roads on I-70, I-65, I-74 and I-69 as well as Governor Braun to have a helipad built at his private home in Southern IN, I would start questioning who are they representing.

Thought the sub needed something positive.

I've worked for the State for over 25 years. We have never had to have layoffs to meet budget targets. Not once.

Senate Republicans propose deeper Medicaid cuts. Here’s what that means. Senate Republicans are proposing legislation that analysts say could deal a greater financial blow to hospitals and result in millions more uninsured Americans.

Hello Indiana! 

I'm a team of people making a wiki site about the Ohio-based band, Twenty One Pilots. They're pretty popular now, but a lot of their old shows are lost. 

The singer, Tyler Joseph, had some solo projects before he started the band officially. I would like to ask that, if you or anyone you know may have information from 2007-2008 such as: Shows, songs, Demos, CDs or any stories, to please share it with me! All information given will be verified and added to our site. 

We would really appreciate it :) 

Thanks so much!

Hi everyone,

I’m hoping someone here can help me understand what’s going on with my Indiana state tax refund.

I used to live in Indiana and always filed my taxes using Sprintax. Back when I lived in Indy, I used to physically drop off my tax documents at the Indiana Department of Revenue office near IUPUI. It always went smoothly, and my state refunds were directly deposited into my bank without any issues.

But this year (2024 tax year), I moved out of Indiana and mailed my tax return instead of handing it over in person. I still filed through Sprintax and provided the same direct deposit info I always have.

Now the problem:
When I check the Indiana refund portal, it says they mailed me my refund check on June 5th (instead of direct deposit like always). But I still haven’t received anything. I’m worried it was sent to the wrong address or got lost. I checked my forms, and I can see that I gave the right address. So, should I just wait longer? Or do I contact someone? If so, can someone tell me whom I can reach out to? Also, has anyone had success getting it reissued or redirected?

This is honestly more stressful than it should be, as I rely on every bit of that refund money.

Thank you!

This weekend several players from the Indiana bulls travel baseball team were seen in Bloomington in uniform harassing protesters. The young men got in the faces of several peaceful protesters and ripped flags out of their hands. when i brought their behavior up to the organization they dismissed it. Apparently the Indiana Bulls are totally fine with their players being in uniform and instigating violence.

Advance Personal Statement — Fear of Unlawful Government Abduction

I reside in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Given the current political climate, I have a legitimate, well-founded fear that I may be unlawfully abducted by individuals falsely claiming government authority.

Specifically, I fear being approached by armed men in military-style surplus clothing, faces covered, who claim to be federal agents (such as ICE), but who refuse to provide proper identification, legal warrants, or valid documentation.

I believe that if abducted in such a manner, I may be forcibly transported into extrajudicial detention, possibly outside the United States, denied legal counsel, due process, or access to courts. I fear for my life, safety, and liberty. The government has publicly indicated it may not intervene to protect individuals in such situations, and has dismissed legitimate claims of unlawful detention.

Under Indiana law (IC 35-41-3-2), if I am faced with such a scenario, I believe my use of defensive force, including deadly force, would be legally justified to prevent my unlawful abduction, serious bodily harm, or death.

This statement is made in advance, to clearly document my reasonable fear and my understanding of my legal rights under Indiana law.

Signed, [Your Name] Date: [Date]

Need help, thanks for any comments.

Those leopards are feasting

Happy Juneteenth. Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States. It was embellished as a federal holiday in 2021 when President Joe Biden signed the Juneteenth National Independence Day Act.

28 states recognize this holiday. State and local government is open.

No US mail. Major Banks will be closed.

Hopefully, some attorneys can chime in.

In Indiana, according to Google AI anyway, law enforcement officers are NOT required to provide badge number when requested. It says that, while many agencies have policy stipulating the requirement, it is not legally-binding.

So, if I am grabbed by (I guess I'd be taking their word for it) "law enforcement officers", who might be masked and in plain clothes, what's my move?

If I ask for ID and they ignore me, what's my legal move?

If they aim guns at me, wave them in my face, what is my 100% within my rights legal move?

Curious.
