Legal Question Anyone else having a terrible experience with Integris Baptis?
I’ll spare you all a Very Long Story and just say that I’ve had my last straw with Integris. They released a loved one on hospice today and has ALL of another patients info in their discharge packet. I’m talking full social, address, insurance info, EVERYTHING. They need a lawsuit filed against them if there’s not already one in the works.

Approved Business Promotion. Are you a small business owner or entrepreneur in Oklahoma?
Hey everyone!
Firstly, I received permission from the mods to post this
I am a local Oklahoma business owner and have been trying to find a great online community in Oklahoma for networking, growing my business, learning, problem solving, etc.
I'm part of local groups, which is fine, but they aren't as connected as online groups. Facebook groups are, obviously, extremely popular so I tried finding one there.
The 25+ groups I joined were completely filled with spam and promotional posts, even if the group said those posts were strictly prohibited.
So, I decided to create my own Facebook group that's dedicated to all the things I wish I could find in another group. The Oklahoma Business Foundry is a group that aims to connect, serve, teach, and facilitate the growth of Oklahoma small business.
We are actually backed by one of the state's 23 certified business incubators in Lawton at Great Plains Technology Center.
Though we just launched only a few days ago, we plan on scaling very fast due to this backing. We are also looking to receive backing from other state incubators in the future.
The group has ambitious goals, including hosting online/in-person events, business courses, videos highlighting Oklahoma business owners, and a podcast, among other things.
This is not a state run group, it's privately owned and under no obligations to the state, though we are Oklahoma specific.
We have a clear mission and defined values. All posts are approved by admins to avoid any spam and self-promotion.
If you would like to learn more you can either DM me on reddit or check out this web page for more information: https://okbusinessfoundry.com/
If you would like to directly check out and/or join the group, you may do so here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/okbusinessfoundry
I hope to see you all there to grow Oklahoma small business, which is extremely important!

Opinion Show up at the town halls
Oklahoma's representatives are using the August recess to tout the benefits of the Big Beautiful Bill. They need to be confronted face to face by the constituents that are being harmed by this disgrace of bill that is taking money right out of their community. They need to be asked why they aren't doing anything to revoke Trump's authority to issue tariffs that are imposing an average tax increase of $1,300 on every family. They need to be asked why they aren't stopping mass firings of federal workers. They need to be asked why people who are nonviolent criminals are being kidnapped by ICE agents off the street or at their place of business. They need to be asked why Trump is imposing a military occupation on American states and cities that didn't vote for him. They need to be asked whether they support the pardons of the January 6th traitors who attempted to overthrow the federal government. They need to be asked what they're going to do to end the conflict in Ukraine since Trump is the worst negotiator in fucking history and doesn't know shit about how to handle Putin.
They need to be asked for their resignations. Show up and question them.

Politics Workers Over Billionaires- A National Protest
This Labor Day people in your community are arranging a Workers Over Billionaires protest.
Who’s Participating?
Tulsa (2 listed)
OKC
Ponca city
Stillwater
I’m sure there are more but those are the ones I’ve seen advertised.
Why go to these protests?
awareness- help raise awareness of budget cuts, attacks on worker benefits (such as time off, fair wages, equal opportunity hiring), or even the buying and destroying of companies that our communities need to survive.
community- you’re not alone. Come out and talk with other people like you. Join in the planned activities and link up for future events.
information- it is through these events that I hear about the major budget cuts that get drowned out in the news. People in your community are already being impacted and we need to work together to protect them until funding is brought back.
fun/support- so much of the news seems doom and gloom but ten minutes at a protest and you see how many people are just like you. We care about our entire state not just how our immediately family benefits. Join in and remember the beauty of a society.
Chances are none of these protests will change the world but that’s okay. Let this be a day for you. Meet others, get engaged, definitely get registered to vote, and have a fun activity for Labor Day.

Ryan may have tucked tail, again, but that just gives us MORE TIME to do MORE useful stuff.
Like speaking to our lawmakers about the actively harmful stuff he is doing to our schools, in addition to him being funded and pushed by two Oklahoma based Christian Dominionist extremist groups, seeking to force a Theonomy on our state and nation.
Come see W.OK.E., Enlighten Oklahoma and others for a Rally at 11, followed by Representative Michelle McCane's Public Education Forum.

Ask an Okie For those of you who live in the Panhandle, what’s life like in your neck of the woods?
This extends to many things, like economically, livelihood, perhaps what’s the word about local schools (kids talk and have opinions after all), community related stuff (if any), street level stuff if you have any, or you can get political if you wish.

Question AEP bill
This coming bill is the most expensive electric bill I have ever had. Are others seeing this same thing? I have not increased usage at all over previous years as I checked the usage. Is there anything we can do as oklahomans? Are they really just going to get away with charging us so much?
