Wanting to volunteer with a 9-5

Hi! I just moved to Joplin but have lived in the 4-state area most of my life. I’d like to volunteer with some local programs, but I work a 9-5. I also don’t make much money, so I want to contribute with my time. What programs should I look into? Okay with faith-based programs as long as they’re relatively progressive.

Is anyone looking for a roomate?

Hey I'm a 20 year old male I currently am staying with my sister since we were taking care of our father. He recently moved in with his buddies so I'm kind of wanting to move out... mainly due to our neighbors hating us cause of my four year old chihuahua crapping near our shared parking spot. I guess let me know if anyone is willing to have a roommate.

There is a meeting regarding the proposed Sarcoxie datacenter tonight (2026.04.23).

Jasper county residents are encouraged to attend. I am not sure what the exact nature of the meeting will be, just thought I'd spread the word.

Best sandwichs in Joplin?

Are there any amazing local sandwich places in Joplin. Most of what I know is like Jersey Mike's or Jimmy John. Is there any, like local delis or sandwich shops that are way better?

Temporary hotspot testing?

I got a question for y’all. Long story short, I need to see if I have to buy a hotspot. What I would love to find out is if somebody could donate a couple of hours of time Thursday night with a hotspot and help me out. I need to connect some Amazon fire tablets to the Internet, but the gentleman that provided the Internet for them passed away unexpectedly. I’m having trouble trying to tell my phone to connect to these tablets. So I’d like to experiment if somebody would like to donate their time. It’s not going to be a lot of data. It’s just connecting for two hours. You can comment here or you can DM me.

We rebuilt the JOMO Jive website!

Hey everyone — I run JOMO Jive (local newsletter focused on events + things happening around Joplin).

I just rebuilt the website and figured some of you here might actually find it useful: 👉 jomojive.com

Biggest upgrade is you can now:

- Browse past editions (so you don’t miss events if you skipped a day)

- Subscribe if you want it sent to you a couple times a week

I’m trying to make it a solid go-to for “what’s going on around here” without all the clutter.

If you check it out and something feels off or missing, I’m all ears — still actively improving it!

What are the Joplin High School colors?

I know officially it is red and silver, but everyone seems to include Navy in that and everyone who I talk to that grew up in this town says it's red navy and white. I'm supposed to be making themed cupcakes and I'm stumped on what the right answer is so what is the local consensus on the high school's colors?

My comics are in stores!

Hello everyone, I have sweated through my briefs today, but that is irrelevant.

I introduced myself last week as Joplin‘s local comic book company and talked about my comics.

Now even more news, MY COMICS ARE AT HEROES, WIZARDS, and more, located in Webb city on Rangeline.

If that is your designated comic store than make sure you look for me there! If you’ve never been, Wayne and Brenda are huge supporters of local comic creators. They said they haven’t seen anything on this level in a while and that I was under pricing them.

Look at my first post to know more about my two ongoing comic series I have out now! FUSION: Second Chances | ECO: Day One
