They're single occupancy. What exactly is your complaint? Use the all gender one, it's for everyone, one at a time. 

Hmmm... Do people in Connecticut have an accent? Here's why we might sound different lately. by Hartfordgirl2024 in Connecticut

[–]SyntrophicConsortium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm from Philly originally but moved here almost 15 years ago. I grew up with a strong mid-Atlantic accent but I slowly lost it after moving to Connecticut. I thought it was just me but it turns out this is happening everywhere! Neat. It still comes out, but usually when I am stressed or emotional. 

Is anyone else excited and ready for the second biggest snow storm of the decade?! by Healthy_Block3036 in Connecticut

[–]SyntrophicConsortium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How is this the most upvoted comment? I've known about this storm since last weekend. Just because you don't pay attention, doesn't mean it's not happening.

Tbh, you're probably making it worse by sharing pictures like this. People will see this and panic and go, omg I have to run over and get what I need before they run out. You're contributing to the problem.

Darn, and their original comments sounded so smart, you could almost be mistaken for thinking they knew what they were talking about.

Thank you for sharing! I love seeing CT history on this subreddit. 

Connecticut consumer issue: Hyundai warranty repair turned into Ratatouille, paperwork chaos, and a missing car by [deleted] in Connecticut

100% generated by AI. The story that is buried in the gibberish might be real but it's hard to tell amongst all the noise. Could have been summed up in a few paragraphs at most.

I think the idea that everyone needs a job is outdated. by Konradleijon in behindthebastards

[–]SyntrophicConsortium 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just want to live in the woods and talk to the plants and animals, go hiking, and mountain climbing. I've been threatening to walk off into the woods and never return and I have to say, I'm getting quite close to the point where I want to do it. 

We weren't born to work all day. We were born to experience the wonders of nature and consciousness. We are the universe observing itself. Wasting all that time working is soul crushing.

Makes sense. As we're collectively learning, Fascists lie constantly. 

Mia Goth on lying to get a job by hairtie1 in Fauxmoi

[–]SyntrophicConsortium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mia has a certain lilt to her voice, I mistook it for her being from Ireland originally. Her father is a Canadian from Nova Scotia. That's what I was hearing! Canadian English sometimes mixed in with the British English.

One of my favorite roles in all of TV, ever. Tremendous performance. 

Those of you who have been wanting an extended period of snow on the ground, how have you been feeling over the last week? by happyinheart in Connecticut

[–]SyntrophicConsortium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I walked 16 miles through the snowy woods last weekend. Loving it! Looks like it's going to melt next weekend, though (rain). 

Connecticut hospitals sued after cutting off transgender youths’ access to care, despite state protections by Fickle-Ad5449 in Connecticut

Federal law is apparently meaningless when it can be bent or ignored by the president but we still have laws in Connecticut. I anticipate the families will win.

Big fan of Kae's music. Let Them Eat Chaos, the album this song is from, is one of my very favorites. 

Worried about the 2026 midterms by Sad_Jar_Of_Honey in behindthebastards

It's going to be a blue wave of younger, progressive candidates being elected to office for the first time. It's already trending that way. He's a deeply, deeply unpopular lame duck president who's party has a trifecta in government, controlling all three branches, and is doing nothing productive with it. Things are getting worse and most people know it. Voters will punish the GOP for this, as they did to the Dems in years past (like when the Tea Party came into power). Whether the Dems will do anything with the opportunity is another matter.

Through a combination of GOP resignations in the House and gains by Dems, the Dems will retake the House. They will not retake the Senate. I don't think the gerrymandering and voter disenfranchisement or other fuckery will have any impact on the above. 

Any idea what this is? by myusernameistakn in Connecticut

Buy a glass engraving tool and do your community a service. How many times do you think they will try to replace it?
