yeah but then you wouldn't have the thrill of knowing you didn't do any of your assignments and risked it all on the snow day announcement coming through as you watched local tv in the morning

It's going to be hard to get a sponsorship nevertheless and it's a pretty big gamble to take.
If I were you I would stay in Switzerland

The amount of people who drive at night without headlights on is pretty crazy. I see at least 1 person like 50% of the time I drive at night now. I have given up flashing my high beams to alert them

Reply to What gives, landlords?? by Ecofolux2427
Yeah I can't explain that, if you offer to pay the year (or even 6 months) up front they should accept immediately.
They probably have been burned by tenants not paying rent more frequently since covid and the other monetary inflation problems and are sick of it.

You mean a cafe can’t afford to pay people who serve sandwiches 50k a year + 10k a year in health insurance premiums if they want to stay in business?

Minor league baseball is so underrated. We used to go in college and I remember a 20 oz beer was 5 bucks. The smaller stadiums actually result in a much nicer atmosphere too

Then stop demanding everybody else pay for the stand you personally want to take. Not even gonna bother asking you questions to discover examples where you place your wallet over the needs of others, there undoubtedly are many.

Disgusting to act like you can browbeat people with self righteous bullshit.
Not interested in paying billions to fund a war effort, or paying 50% more for food and energy, and there is nothing wrong with that

That's nice that you think you can speak for every electricity consumer in the state. How about all the people who agree with you can split the extra cost and leave everybody else out of it?

The parents are lowlife pieces of shit, but somehow the entire conversation will be twisted to how this is all the fault of ordinary, decent people for not giving enough of muh heckin funding.
Fuck off, reducing this issue to money is a dishonest lie

Reply to Boston Healthcare System Total Garbage? by UltimateZo
The first thing you need to learn about Boston is that most people here, even the transplants (especially the transplants actually) get super defensive over any criticism of Boston. It's actually bizarre how defensive people get on this subreddit, especially considering how many are transplants like I said. I really do think this area is full of some insecure, immature people.
Anyway, yes there is a huge problem around here with wait times to get a PCP. Once you actually get a PCP, you will notice that there is a huge push to funnel you to a nurse practitioner (possibly a virtual visit too) instead of an actual medical doctor. I really dislike that, when I have a medical problem I want to see a medical doctor, it's as simple as that. Sometimes I have an urgent issue and have no choice though, I also do admit that if you are calling your PCP specifically to acquire a specialist referral, then it doesn't really matter if you speak to a practitioner or MD about that.
Regarding specialists, depending on the type you need to see, you could be looking at several months. Communicate to your PCP that you're seeing very long wait times and ask them for any referrals that might have a shorter wait list. Keep calling around to hospitals, try Mt Auburn Hospital. I was pleased with their Neurology department, and they were able to see me within 2-3 weeks, this as before covid though.
Overall, there is a shortage of medical providers in this area and there are longer wait times than a lot of other parts of the country, even places that have great care too. Don't expect many of the people on this sub to admit that though.
Good luck!

Why is there basically zero detail here, do the police know anything? Aren’t there cameras at least
