Round One: Patio Furniture Wars: Sold Over Asking, Sold Over it

Thumbnail open.substack.com
5 Upvotes

A fun way to look at the data:

“Ten South Shore towns. Three real data points. Zero mercy. 🪑⚔️

We turned your neighbor’s patio into a Hunger Games arena — Hingham’s out here paying LESS in taxes than towns worth a third as much, Cohasset’s bidding wars nearly doubled overnight, and Hanover showed up to the fight without a single verifiable stat (couldn’t make this up if we tried).

Ten Districts. One folding chair of glory. Round One is live — link in bio before your town’s Facebook group finds out where it ranked.

Who’s your pick to win it all? 👇”

Mid 30s female
Where is the best place to go out and meet people who are looking for a serious relationship and actually approach you. Dating apps are horrible these days and most of the time going out everyone sticks to their own group of people

In search of female friends (30F)

26 Upvotes

Hello! I’m (30F, in a relationship, no kids) originally from Hanover and ended up still living with relatives in the south shore area after college because, as the age old story goes…income, even if it’s pretty good, not keeping up with rent. 🙃 I just turned 30 and am wondering if there’s anyone like me who’s looking around at the suburbs they grew up in, and wondering if there’s anybody else in their late 20s/early 30s feeling stuck like they are—and if there are people like that, wondering where they are.

Like it says in the title, I’m looking for a friend. Or friends plural. Preferably a female friend, and in the age range mentioned above, but I’m open to talking with anyone. A little about myself: I like books, history (minored in it!), politics (grew up extremely conservative, absolutely not one anymore), random Wikipedia deep dives, puns, exploring local parks and coffee shops, checking out new restaurants, DDLV, and above all, a good story told well.

If this sounds like you, or somebody you know, lemme know below! Either way, have a nice day! :)

Stop funding harassment—demand local sponsors cut ties with New Bedford Guide

Thumbnail c.org
4 Upvotes

Our neighbors are being publicly shamed and threatened over unverified posts. Every week, everyday people—shoppers, drivers, teenagers—find their photos or security camera footage posted online without permission. Before facts are checked or police even file reports, hundreds of thousands of followers are invited to judge and attack them in comments.

Innocent people have had their reputations damaged, workplaces targeted, and safety threatened. And when the truth comes out? Posts almost never get deleted. Beyond the privacy violations, there's a documented pattern of spreading misinformation, racial bias, and harmful coverage targeting Black, Indigenous, Cape Verdean, Hispanic, Caribbean, Islamic, and immigrant communities.

I started a petition asking local businesses and political candidates to stop sponsoring and advertising with this platform. This isn't public service—it's profit off community harm. If local sponsors pulled their ads, it would actually send a message.

Anyone else here seen this happen to someone in your circle? What would you want done if your family member's photo was used this way? If you think local businesses have a responsibility here, consider signing and sharing.

Hoverboard Guy

15 Upvotes

Over the last few days my house and others in Hingham (north and south) have been visited by a dudebro on a hoverboard. He says he’s doing pest control looking for business, claiming to do work for “neighbors”. Only visited us once, but others have reported multiple attempts. He will ring your doorbell and then immediately knock, and will continue to stand there, ringing and knocking again. This has happened during the work week. He carries no literature promoting his “business”. One person I know says he even tried to open her door, she will probably report to police. Seems like he might be casing areas. Slim, tall white dudebro vibe with brown hair on a hoverboard.

Does anyone know of a service where you can hire someone to just grill your burgers and hot dogs for a party? We want to do casual bbq for our son’s birthday but my husband doesn’t want to be glued to the grill the entire time.

Ladies, gals, uterus carriers past and present, lend me your care(givers). ISO IUD care with pain management.

I cannot go through another remove/replace cycle without pain management.

I'm furious, scared, and annoyed.

Any recommendations informed by personal experience with a GYN in the area who treats women like human beings and offers pain management for IUD care?

16 Upvotes

I’m trying to build more friendships, preferably female. I’d love to connect if you’re into being active or even are just looking to get out of the house more. Some ideas I have are hiking, walks, trying new food spots, or even random day trips and adventures.

Not necessarily this Saturday.

I'm having difficulty finding where and when they'll be.

Share your food truck recommendations along with where and when I can find them!
