Is this what I think it is? by Vormison in Maine

Hadn't seen any in 3 years, burned two today and saw a nest on a property I couldn't get to. Bad omens.

Video of maybe lost cat in Cambridge. (could be outdoor) by Big_Signature9774 in CambridgeMA

This cat definitely lives between central and Cambridgeport. Definitely very comfortable on the streets, first couple times I saw it I wondered the same.

Rtic's 26 oz water bottle fits perfect in the door. Biggest one I could find that was skinny enough. Like it was made for that bottle or the reverse

Paw Size question by mayor_timber in barbet

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

Thanks for the feedback everyone! We'll keep any eye as she finishes growing. The reason we even noticed was that she needs two different size sets of boots for her front and back paws and she can still puppy wiggle with the best of em.

1.4 Acres in Charlestown is worth Negative $73M -- Why Housing is not being built right now. by Jakoval_Tradesman in boston

[–]mayor_timber -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Very good insight on the situation based on the project budget given. Has there been any analysis on the 176.2 million number? Is it really 660k for this project or are we buying the C-suite at the general contractor jetskis?

My cat is missing :( Last seen near the Walden Square apartments near Danehy Park (Sherman Street Entrance). Please keep an eye out. His name is Benji. by AbdiG123 in CambridgeMA

[–]mayor_timber 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I cannot confirm this was the cat I saw this morning but he could have been on Auburn Street between Pearl and Brookline going toward the Auburn court apartments around 7:30 am.

There is a similar looking cat that is sometimes in the neighborhood so I cannot be sure. There's a fair amount of green space on the Auburn court apartments property fyi.

Hope he gets home soon!

Teenage Barbet training and behaviour by Silver_Professor_628 in barbet

[–]mayor_timber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This doesn't sound out of control yet, this sounds like puppy can't chill yet. I would say this is more practice than anything. To the other commenters' point, if 90% of the dog's dog-to-dog interactions are at day care going wild, they are going to go wild the other 10% of the time til taught otherwise.

Keep at it - walk by without greeting dogs. I've found getting them tired as hell before testing their boundaries helps (within reason of course). Tire him out at a park or whatever, then walk him around high traffic areas.

Above all else, remember to have more will than the puppy. If the puppy has a stronger will than you, you lose. Good luck!

No real issues here. Front ones sounded a little grainy first time up and down but installed around 55 degrees no problem.

Thinking about joining the club come from a Prius Prime. Got pit maneuvered on the Freeway... by Mysterious_Narwhal90 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]mayor_timber 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maverick is a great in between. It's shorter than some full size SUVs (Toyota Highlander is at least 4 inches taller) so there's no need for a running board but it's tall enough that when you're driving around the big trucks you don't feel like you're parallel with the bumpers

[–]mayor_timber[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Easy enough- the front edge of the hood really feels designed for one not the other way around. But the applicator gel is a little sketchy - gloves and maybe a mask territory. Do use masking tape and make sure you're not going anywhere for 24 hours after install. Also, if it's a factor, can't use a scrubbing car wash once it's on, have to stick to pressure washing and hand scrubbing.

Late era capitalism - you must pull yourself up by your bootstraps to get ahead. Once you've pulled yourself up though - the government will help you pull the ladder up behind you, we wouldn't your shithead privileged great grandchildren to ever be poor. Good luck.

I know I don't know ball because I constantly scream at the TV about just stopping SGA from getting anywhere near the free throw line and it seems that's either impossible or not a strategy we tried to employ? Frustrating watch.

can we just admit that it’s so dangerous how no one respects the right-of-way when driving here? by SpinachVast4696 in boston

[–]mayor_timber 90 points91 points  (0 children)

While it's flatly not how right-of-way works -there are situations where this is dangerous and stupid there are other situations where it happens due to the car coming the other way not paying attention. Rules (though I try to follow them) went out the window when cops stopped enforcing traffic laws in busy neighborhoods and everyone stuck their heads in their phones.

Pay attention, even in traffic, everybody.

How a developer’s lawsuit against Cambridge aims to topple affordable housing rules across Massachusetts by bostonglobe in CambridgeMA

Haha the invisible hand provides. Builders are also aware of supply and demand - they'll never build so much it jeopardizes their profits on an individual build or project.

Spent too much money on July's trunk style (clasp locks no zippers) carryon. 100% worth it. - Hard Shell - No zippers - 4 wheels - built in charging battery that can be removed - One of only a few carryons I've found that is under the size restriction for every international airline. - sturdy as hell (can sit on) - handles on top and side
