Reply to Why is CT Transit so incompetent? by AcademicSavings634
I use Google Maps. Sometimes the bus is early, so I have to wait for the next one. Occasionally it doesn’t stop, and I assume it was full.
But I get what I pay for—which is nothing until April 1, 2023. (Hopefully longer.)

>Where do mid 30s professionals gather on weekends? This is a very blank slate question but anything would help!
Find events that interest you at https://www.meetup.com, https://www.eventbrite.com, etc.
Maybe you’ll meet people with similar interests. If not, you’ll still have a good time.

Reply to Local wool yarn from Connecticut? by Platycerium02
I knit and crochet, and yarn preferences are really subjective.
I would buy your cousin a gift certificate to her local yarn shop, so she can choose exactly what she wants.
For example, I can only touch vegan yarn, merino, or silk. Everything else burns—even alpaca, which everyone insists is so soft & hypoallergenic. In addition, I have a very limited palette.
But I’m happy to hear “the kids” are getting into r/crochet.

From the comments:
>We used to skate down there. You can also get in on Elm st and fuck around, but they close down the gates to keep people out and security has cameras all over the place.
And someone else talks about going there in 2010.

>Connecticut’s zoning laws maintain the status quo economic and racial segregation. The word “segregation” might conjure images of separate lines and “Whites only” signs. Some might even think, “That doesn’t happen anymore.” But the harsh and horrifying reality is that it absolutely does. Segregation today looks like restricting people’s choice of where to live. Municipalities use zoning codes to prevent certain people from living in their neighborhood while welcoming others. Although the signs aren’t posted, the message remains: Whites only.
