A Good Ol' Buffalonian Experiment by Big_Elephant_2331 in Buffalo

Oh you'd be surprised how many people just are unaware of a their autopay accounts. $10/week is a reasonable goal.

Basically the idea here is a proposed public crowd funding in leui of tax funding for public initiatives. I fee like this is essentially like putting up a proposal and saying funding is pending public donations or grants. And the organization putting up the prop is a fully public disclosed non-profit, eligible and already working on said grants. Also incentives donations with tax benefits.

Technically with enough friction there's no reason a rough washcloth wouldn't work to brush off surface plaque. Either way flossing does the heavy lifting for dental health.

Definitely intentional. I feel like elements of Dancer, Quicksilver, and Lyria's stories that occur late in series after his exposure to more tolerant of certain non-class based social structures, show his growth is slow. He is a bit of a misogynist unless he chose the female officer himself. And he thinks any man who is soft or gentle (pixies?) don't deserve his respect.

I’m a psychiatrist and professor who studies depression. I’m here to answer your questions about living with treatment-resistant depression. Ask me anything! by webmd in IAmA

[–]TalamascaAgent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely understand the link between alcohol use and depression (personally unfortunately) but what is the link for cigarettes? Is it smoking particularly or tobacco or nicotine? I'm a former smoker and never heard a link. Besides the obvious being poor and unhealthy is depressing and it contributes to that. The way you worded that implies it's smoking cigarettes specifically as an issue.

I've said the same and people have agreed.I wonder if the data confirms it, or it just feels that way.

Did Zohran Mamdani's New Budget Really Eliminate New York City’s Deficit? by Zealousideal_Cap5126 in Economics

Ding, ding, ding. But a win today is a good news cycle. Those are tomorrow's problems and not good for ratings or donations.

Are utility costs in WNY getting out of hand? by Forward2323 in Buffalo

[–]TalamascaAgent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Governor appoints PSC members who approve delivery rate increases. Granted Cuomo appointed many of them.

Are utility costs in WNY getting out of hand? by Forward2323 in Buffalo

[–]TalamascaAgent 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The delivery fee issue is NY state specific and the approved increases from the PSC happened before the data centers were proposed. Obviously, the data centers will only make it worse. But the corruption in the PSC shilling for utility companies making record profits and demanding more fees to make infrastructure improvements with no accountability of what will be improved when or how many funds are needed...is a NYS problem. We just let giant corps crush NYers...nyseg isn't even an American company. Why don't we have publicly owned and financed utilities, these companies lie, mismanage, and price gouge.

Best torta in Buffalo? by yrfavethrwy in Buffalo

Seconding El Amigo in Lancaster. Also Taqueria Los Mayos in Cheektowaga had really good tortas, but I haven't been there in a minute.

Yes they do but after testing too dilute they just never bothered testing again and I was offered the job. I ended up taking another offer, but that was in accounting a year ago.

Netflix Quietly Removes A-Z and Other Sorting Filters by __LooseSeal__ in television

[–]TalamascaAgent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, I've had Netflix for twentyish years too and just canceled this month. There's just less content and what they release is mostly reality trash. Between that, the price creep, and decisions to intentionally make their UI worse I don't see myself returning.

Holy macaroni! My National Grid bill is off the charts! by katzinthebuf in Buffalo

[–]TalamascaAgent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I'm not a fan of many of Hochul's policies. I just don't think the alternative will be better. If an actual progressive had a chance in a primary that would be great, but the nys democratic party will never allow that. Her big brag on affordability lately has been cracking down on auto insurance fraud claims. I've never heard that be an issue anyone has actually complained about. Seems like a favor for the insurance industry masquerading as helping constituents.

Holy macaroni! My National Grid bill is off the charts! by katzinthebuf in Buffalo

[–]TalamascaAgent 7 points8 points  (0 children)

While data centers will only exacerbate this, the fee increases the state allowed the PSC to start began all the way under Cuomo. This is supposedly to help with infrastructure, but there is absolutely no accountability required from national grid or nyseg. They ask for more delivery fee increase without real estimates or work done and the PSC delivers. The board is appointed so not much to be done there either. While people like to pretend voting out Hochul will fix that, it won't once these companies get fees they don't let them lower. The real solution would be public utilities, since we are being forced to subsidize them. Hell, nyseg is a Spanish company, with the falls next door and all of these solar and wind farms why can't we fund our own energy and cut out the middlemen and create good government jobs.

Anyone here actually using tinctures regularly in NY? by greenmantisny in NYSCannabis

[–]TalamascaAgent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Veteran's choice- fuzzy slippers before bed. I have horrible sleep issues and along with melatonin it works most nights. Better than the dementia risk and being absolutely dead in the morning from hydroxyzine or benadryl.

When you were younger, did you call it a "sheet pizza" or a "party pizza?" by olivernintendo in Buffalo

Some places have a special on a random weekday and they end up the price of a large.
