PSA to female hikers at Blacklick Woods

Idk if this will even reach anybody and PLS tell me if I’m overreacting, but apparently there’s a man out at Blacklick woods that likes to follow women around the park. I was out at 8 am this morning to bird watch when I bent over to tie my shoe on the Beech trail where a road cuts across the trail. Some guy stopped his car in the middle of the road and just watched me tying my shoe. He then proceeded to park somewhere nearby and follow me into the woods. He caught up while I was sitting on a bench and he decides to sit next to me on said bench. Had his phone open but was just looking at me the whole time. I got up to leave and shortly after, I heard him get up and start walking behind me again as well. Again, I could absolutely be misreading something or making a situation where there isn’t one, but something about that experience did not feel right at all and it made the hairs on my neck stand up.

EDIT:
He was a black man that looked to be in his 20s. Around 5’9 to 5’10 maybe? White and beige checkered Sherpa hoodie.
He drove a small white car that looked like maybe a fiat or something similar? It was smart car shaped, but definitely not a smart car.

I get that ppl are saying if we eliminate the gas tax we will have problems later like worse highways and more potholes. Those are problems for tomorrow and we need relief now , every cent counts even if it is only 18 cents per gallon. People need RELIEF now before they can worry about tomorrow

Hi everyone, I'm Joe Gerard, a candidate for Congress in this May 5 Democratic Primary accepting absolutely zero donations.

Quick on me: 26 years old, engineer and healthcare researcher, OSU College of Medicine alumni, Short North homeowner, former EMT. I approach politics like an engineer - I look at our problems and see rational solutions we aren't implementing because our District's Rep is beholden to corporate money.

The primary is THIS TUESDAY, MAY 5. I'm running against a 13-year incumbent who's seen Columbus housing costs nearly double since taking office, all while wages have stayed flat. I don't think that's a coincidence and I don't think it's acceptable.

Ask me anything about my platform, money in politics, or what a new generation of leadership would look like in Washington. I'll be here until 9:00PM!

Questions already on deck to be answered:
AI Datacenters - what can Congress do about it?
U.S. Israel relationship - what should it look like and how can Congress get there?
I say 'the tools to fix what's broken already exist' - what are those tools?
Corporate buyouts of homes - what can Congress do to address those housing costs?

Born May 13, 2008, at Riverside Methodist!
Hey everyone! I’ve been doing some digging into my birth date. I found out that about 19 or 20 of us were born at Riverside Methodist on Tuesday, May 13, 2008.
Since we’re all turning 18 right about now (Class of 2026!), I thought it would be cool to see if any of my hospital "roommates" are on here!
If you were born at Riverside on that day—or if you know a friend or sibling who was—drop a comment! I’d love to know what university you ended up at or just say hi to the "squad."
It would really help if you guys also pass on/ repost it really appreciate it…
