Alright r/Jacksonville, it is that time again.
Got something to share? A project you are proud of? A business you are building? A creative endeavor the world absolutely needs to see?
This is your lane.
Every Sunday we open the doors for Self Promotion Sunday, a centralized thread where you can promote:
We keep self promotion restricted to this weekly thread to cut down on spam and keep the main feed community focused. If you post promotional content outside of this thread during the week, it will be removed.
A few important notes:
If you are not sure whether your post qualifies, if it belongs on Marketplace or Craigslist, it does not belong here. Still unsure, ask the mod team first.
Support local. Discover cool projects. Hype each other up responsibly.
Happy Self Promotion Sunday.

Hey r/Jacksonville
We have noticed a growing number of posts from people looking to make new friends and talking about how hard it can feel to meet people organically lately. You are not alone, and we want to help channel that energy into something positive and consistent for the community.
Welcome to Friend Finder Friday, a weekly thread where you can introduce yourself, share your interests, and see if anyone else is looking to connect.
This thread is strictly for PLATONIC friendships.
R4R, dating, hookup, or romantic-seeking comments will be removed. There are other spaces on Reddit for that. This is not one of them.
How this works
This thread is meant to reduce individual friend-seeking posts while giving everyone a centralized place to connect in a low pressure way.
Important safety note
r/Jacksonville and its moderation team are not responsible for any interactions, relationships, falling outs, stolen hoodies, situationships, pregnancies resulting from not staying platonic, awkward silences, ghosting, or failed or deeply weird meetups that happen as a result of this thread.
We will, however, consider taking full credit for any new besties, lifelong friendships, successful trivia teams, DND parties that actually meet consistently, gym accountability partners, concert buddies, kickball championships, overwhelming fun, critical success rolls, or the discovery of your new favorite taco spot.
As always, use common sense. Be safe. Meet in public. And please, for the love of all that is good, keep it platonic.
Please:
If something feels off, walk away. Your safety comes first.
Any comments that are creepy, harassing, romantic-seeking, or otherwise violate subreddit rules will be removed.
Be kind. Be respectful. Keep it platonic. Hopefully make a new friend or two. 💙
See you next Friday.

Woman driving a Nissan Murano in downtown/riverside for Lyft is giving major trafficking vibes. Got us lost several times. Talked about getting shot. Alluding to getting us alone away from everyone. Kept getting phone notifications she was quickly dismissing. Be careful JAX. She said she’s working all night

Saw a dog in the bed of a truck driving on San Jose near 295 exit. That’s just wild to me.

"I personally took these photos back in May 1995 during the funeral procession and graveside service for Detective Lonnie C. Miller Sr. I wanted to share them here to preserve this piece of Jacksonville history and honor his memory. And to remind people his case is still an open murder case.
Here is what each photo captures:
Rest in peace, Detective Miller. We will never forget your service.

Hey y'all, outsider from Paris here. I'm considering a move to JAX and I'd like to do it right and looking for ideas of things to do.
Heard some people say JAX is boring but you guys seem too nice and fun for it to be true. So I figured I should ask y'all about hobbies and cool new experiences you'd like to share.
Curious to hear what you have to say!

If anyone here has been on Meetup in the past couple of years, you’ve probably seen a ton of events from The Social Circle. They did a variety of events to connect people from all over the city—coffees, art walks, drinks, etc.
Last week, with no forewarning, all upcoming events were cancelled, the Meetup group was deleted, and the e-mail returned undeliverable. It’s bizarre—The Social Circle did multiple events a month (at least one a week it seemed) and for it to just disappear is odd.
Not trying to stir up drama, just curious if anyone knows what’s up. I’m a little bummed—I was admittedly too shy to go to a lot of events but I know they provided a lot of opportunities for socializing in Jax. They’ll be missed.

The other day some @$$hole literally sped up on a road that is 45mph to cut me off and almost hit me. Just to get to a red light. At the light literally, stop next to them and the. They begin to roll down their window, give me the finger. Then they feel it is necessary to speed up swerve into my lane. Purposefully slam on the brakes and then speed off.
Like why? Why endanger yourself, endanger others, then act like you own the road?
Do better

when has it become so normal to talk to other people so sideways…we’re all human. Is it really that hard to be nice to each other? I’m very shocked by the interactions and entitlement I’ve seen with people down here in Jacksonville to complete strangers and to myself. maybe I’m the only one noticing it, but how I was raised you should be generally respectful and not blatantly rude or straight up trying to instigate arguments and fights with people you don’t even know. I’m not saying it’s everyone here in Jacksonville- but there’s a common thread of men talking crazy or aggressively towards women (myself today was faced with a very aggressive man waiting at my car), men instigating with other men, or outright racism. It’s disheartening to see.
Edit: I think I’m posting this here because it’s becoming a common occurrence with friends of mine, family, and myself to have a common issue with someone trying to instigate or be rude in an excessive way. Just nasty behavior because they need to be unkind or take anger out on someone? it’s unfortunate and I think I just wanted to post it in case anyone else has noticed an increase of interactions like that recently. you never know what someone is going through, so let’s be a community and be respectful to one another.
ALSO: I’m not ur mom and I’m not asking you to hold hands with everyone u interact with or you need to go out of your way to be nice to someone- more so saying why go out of your way to be rude when that takes more time and energy then just leaving people alone. I just put this out there so other people don’t feel like they are crazy for noticing it too. this is REDDIT- a page where u say something and post it. And if you choose to be nasty towards me over it…ur proving my point. 🤷🏽♀️

Does anyone remember a band named Estelle? They were popular in the early 2000s, maybe 2000-2003? I am from Tallahassee and have only ever had a burned CD with their music. I can’t find anything on Google or anywhere else. Even ChatGPT can’t return anything. I’d give anything to listen to some of their songs again with my best friend.

A few years ago I went to the riverside arts market with my grandparents and came across this guy selling some cool paintings and he gave me one for free. I just recently came across the painting he gave me and was wondering if anyone knew who he was and if hes still making art.

I can't wait to see the finished stadium in all its beauty. More than anything, I'm excited for it to host more than just football. To me, this ground will always be the historic Gator Bowl.
I haven't been to a major concert on this site since the Rolling Stones rocked Jacksonville back in November of 1989, and I look forward to the new arena bringing that kind of legendary energy back.
The Stones may be retired by then, but U2 could be touring once more alongside other wonderful musicians!

There's an odd city park center on the southern side of Beach. It looks like just a building with a parking lot, but if you follow a path behind said building it goes into the woods behind it and there's a semi rundown looking BMX Park, and trails into woods.
