I'm surprised you have issues with Xfinity. I have it and don't run into issues save a few dead zones. Two things I would try

  1. are you connecting to wifi hotspots and not getting signals from those? That could be causing the issue

  2. is your phone 5g enabled? If so changing the setting to force LTE connection might help

This is the high school I went to. I frequently tell people how racist this school and really the whole town of Weare is. My kids' father got racist death threats against him constantly. The things I heard on a daily basis were horrific. The town of Weare and its school system caused a lot of trauma to so many people myself and family included. I got the hell out of there as soon as I could so I could avoid having to raise my kids in that white supremacist hellscape.

People normally keep a set of "inspection tires". Something tiny that will bring the vehicle down to spec. Not saying I condone it.. but that's what many people do. Other option if you ride private trails is to trailer it, if you can afford a daily-driver/tow-rig.

This subreddit is filled with ideological trolls and bots who consistently lie. Lack of evidence and anecdotal reports lack credibility and everyone should be skeptical without concrete evidence.

Imagine believing every word what the internet says? Moreover, your response of “fame, wealth and glory” again reeks of an unhinged response since none of that will happen. See original premise: ideology

It was my student teaching position so I was at that particular school for a semester, so unpaid and no contract. Since getting my license hinged on my performance, reviews from my mentor teachers and my professors, I was afraid to go to the superintendent, etc. (Also being an inexperienced teacher I thought it was my fault for not being able to control the situation and did not realize exactly how bad it was). I decided not to pursue teaching as a career after that because of my experience at that school. I did take one long term sub position years later and had a wonderful experience, but had already pursued another career and so let my license lapse.

Drive around the suburbs of Boston look for houses with dumpsters out front and ask if they’re getting rid of anything good or if you can dig through. You can get a lot of VERY nice stuff for free this way, plus it’s a win-win for you and the contractor.

The re-store that benefits habitat for humanity in newington is incredible if you hit it at the right time. I was able to buy a large kitchen island that would have cost a few thousand for under $300 and a beautiful old Dutch door for about $150 among other things those were just the best of what I was able to get but if you get there at the right time you can get some amazing deals.

Maybe the reason I grew up thinking Lawrence was overall ~dangerous and crimey~ is because I lived in the area that’s marked with the red X on this map during that time; I find it hard to believe the neighborhood by neighborhood stats are the same or even close to the same now as they were when I lived there multiple decades ago, and if not maybe it’s just what I was exposed to (the people my parents kept company with, getting the shit beat out of me by a classmate on my way home from school in 2nd grade— I was allowed to walk alone to and from school at Weatherbee starting in 1st grade if that tells you anything, and at some point that’s fuzzy timewise there was the murder of a neighbor) along with what everyone around me was always saying (“Joe Schmoe is a drug dealer😮”) at the point in my life when I was young, impressionable, and didn’t have a great grasp on the world around me yet

Thanks but I don't think anyone makes international calls anymore. My US wife has been with me in England for 9 years and she's never once had to make an international call despite talking to her family every couple days. Whatsapp, facetime, zoom etc.

Lools like Verizon is the way to go.

I looked it up— according to FBI stats our chances of being the victim of a crime in Lawrence MA is 1 in 89, and it’s right around the national average

In Somersworth NH our risk of the same is 1 in 28 😐

We really just love to blame everything on people who are low income or living in poverty and people with brown skin, and Lawrence and Manchester make pretty damn easy targets in that regard— which is sad and pathetic
