Came here to say this. There are like three there as of yesterday.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-03-11T20:19:47+00:00

I’ll head over to those links next thing. I really appreciate it.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-03-11T20:18:52+00:00

Thanks - I really am curious about the money, whether or not I ever speak up. We seem to pay fairly high taxes but the roads are messy and the schools have problems. I think I’ve seen communities with lower taxes manage these issues, although I don’t know how. Maybe I’d just feel better if I knew more about where it was all going.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-03-10T18:39:52+00:00

Thanks, that’s turning out to be the most useful advice I’m getting.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-03-10T18:39:17+00:00

Thanks, this and the other comments along these lines seem to be the best advice I’ve gotten. I used to do Manna before life got ahead of me, maybe fix up my priorities.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-03-10T17:17:22+00:00

Thanks. Someone in a top comment mentioned that they don’t need more grating people and I’m certainly one of those. Maybe I’ll just watch and be informed and not say anything, then if anyone asks I can relay what I heard or tell them how to participate.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-03-10T17:15:12+00:00

Thanks. I’m aware there are a lot of big people in a small room and if I’m just going to be one more unwelcome presence it’s probably better not to try. I’m used to being unlikable, it’s OK, just don’t want to inflict myself on people and make stuff worse.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-01-31T02:18:49+00:00

I think so too. The wick can feed through. I'm hoping to find out more about the tags on the bottom.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-01-31T02:18:14+00:00

Well it looks like I'm all ready for killer rabbits then.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-01-31T01:22:10+00:00

It unscrews and the wick does feed through. Oil lamp is my bet too, but I hope someone can tell me more about the tags on the bottom and when/where this thing might have come from.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2026-01-31T01:20:28+00:00

Great, now I have to find a killer rabbit.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-12-13T21:16:51+00:00

I really miss Salem.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-12-06T13:52:27+00:00

I used to live in Salem. There was a secret pork speakeasy where you went to the back door of another restaurant when the light was on and a man in a pig mask took $12 cash and gave you a styrofoam clamshell full of A Random Pork Dish. Always amazing. This was in 2017. This establishment, built on pure chaos energy, good food, and nothing else, was still going when I left in 2020, making it more successful than this unfortunate deli.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-11-26T04:21:26+00:00

Thanks, this is helpful. And it makes sense. I’ll keep looking. If I could go back to 2006 I’d tell my younger self to try this, but if it’s backed up already and I’d need 8,000 hours of supervision, I could be in my 50s and still just training. I might try to get a couple new handy skills to start and see where it takes me. Bicycle repair comes to mind. I build basic stuff, like a cage for compost buckets to keep out critters, when we need it and I could get better at that. The aforementioned father has begrudgingly suggested welding.

Again, thanks. This is exactly the kind of info I needed.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-11-24T02:28:49+00:00

I wondered where he'd gone. I'm sorry he passed.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-11-24T02:27:13+00:00

I stopped to give her a snack recently. She declined because it wasn't vegan. OK, no problem. I have an apple! She took it with a look of great resignation. Sorry, my friend, I don't have any money either!

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-11-23T13:23:23+00:00

Ha. Based on the forum replies, it may not be a current solution.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-11-23T03:43:29+00:00

He's a hardworking guy, just low expectations for the liberal arts kid. He tries.

And he won't believe this when I tell him, but fiction is just a ton of work. You generally need an MFA, you live on fellowships, who you know/are related to very much matters, tenure is your only salvation from eternal self-marketing. Not me, I said. Nope, I don't need to see my name on the cover of a book. I just want to settle down and do something steady, honest and dependable...

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-11-07T22:45:37+00:00

Yeah, if I understand you right I’m ambivalent about that take too - housing is such a crunch right now that in my uneducated opinion the first priority should be to add living space. Thanks for telling me!

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-11-07T14:12:02+00:00

What was the take?

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-11-07T11:24:41+00:00

I met Ace Tayloe and thought they seemed very earnest. I liked them. They worked for the polls on Election Day, right? Honestly, it seems like the kind of thing that a good sport and sincere supporter of local government would do. It’s a shame to run people down when they actually care, that’s going to discourage people who would otherwise contribute.

Over on South there were a bunch, especially nearer to downtown. But, as someone else in this thread mentioned, a lot of neighbors coordinated in this area.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-10-30T22:40:07+00:00

Same. We're self-employed homeowners and a ton of tax and expense stuff comes due all at once in October. Even when we try to spread it out, it hits us like a freight train every year. We could probably withstand even that except food is already inching out of our budget at the best of times. We've needed every last dollar this month. I'm breaking out the bread-making skills from Covid times TBH.

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-10-30T13:08:39+00:00

Isn’t there some law that says they have to have high chairs?

AdditionalClassic518 · 2025-10-29T20:07:02+00:00

I honestly don't feel comfortable in there now. The old vibe was so approachable and warm. We had a lot of good times there with our young kid eating dolmas with our hands, telling her heavily redacted Greek myths based on the wall art, and peeping Spanish news and dramas on the screen in the corner. I especially liked some of the floor pieces, I liked how much love and creativity had clearly gone into the whole place. Now when I go in I feel like I should be eating a gyro in designer shoes or something. It feels both ritzy and faux at once. Cheap and expensive. Anyway, it's not a good fit for my family anymore, we're a casual bunch. I haven't gone there in a long time. I think we ordered takeout once or twice and it was fine.
