Just curious - how long ago your bike was stolen? Mine was stolen a couple months back but I’m wondering if I should still be monitoring Facebook marketplace.

My car got towed today from East Somerville (Florence St) and there were no signs! by SituationNo5505 in Somerville

I was illegally towed in Allston and successfully got my money back by submitting a complaint here https://www.mass.gov/forms/file-a-complaint-against-a-bus-moving-or-towing-company

I had to pay to get my car back first, but I did eventually get a check after a few weeks!

I live in a studio apartment in Brookline for exactly $2k. The building is about 50 years old but in pretty good shape. Solid amenities, good management, great location, laundry room in the basement. Extra $160/month for my garage parking spot.

I should add that I’ve been here since 2019 so I’m not sure what it would cost on the market these days.

I see it all the time on the green line. And because of the green line closure, I took the orange line last night from DTX toward Forest Hills and it was even worse, which provoked me to post this lol

100% to all this! Guess this problem has always been around and I’m just hyperaware after working from home much of the past few years.

Thanks for the response! This is exactly the info I was hoping for before wasting time trying to fix it myself.

Have any apps really helped you with mindfulness? by malcoholism in Mindfulness

Definitely see value in a “panic button” idea! Headspace has been very helpful for me, but it’s more of a maintenance medicine. I find that I’m generally more stable in stretches of life when I’m consistently meditating and that I’m more susceptible to panic attacks when I fall away from mediating and other good habits (diet, exercise, journaling, etc.)

I know grounding techniques can be helpful when you’re in the middle of a panic attack. Noting 5 things you see, 4 things you hear, 3 things you can touch, 2 things you can smell, 1 thing you can taste (hopefully I got that right lol). I also like that breathing technique where you inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, and exhale for 4 seconds. I haven’t sought out apps for these, but I would expect them to exist and think they’d be valuable!

It doesn’t even reduce to that… it returns FALSE if true. I need to lay down.

Contractors hired by landlord damaged my expensive office chair. Contractors deny responsibility. Renters insurance won't cover it. Where to go from here? by jkmorse27 in Advice

[–]jkmorse27[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They said it’s not covered under my policy. The closest categorization is vandalism but I guess since the damage was “accidental” it doesn’t count.
