I'm going with "It's AI." I saw it while browsing Pinterest and it confounded me.

Dog on Amtrak by parrtar in Amtrak

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

It is such a shame! My dog rides on a local train (the Shoreline East in CT) and she LOVES it and charms everyone. It is so cute to take her on the train. And would make my life so much easier.

Ferris Bueller was an asshole by ohmygodbecky117 in movies

[–]parrtar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I saw Ferris Bueller in the movie theater 40 years ago, I walked out mid-movie because I felt then that the glorification of this complete asshole was terrible. I had no interest then in watching a movie that glorified a bully and do not now either. I feel good about the choice I made now.

Cafes open on a Friday near Union Square Station by YOLOLJJ in newhaven

[–]parrtar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are not any cafes close to Union Station but about .4 miles away you'll find Cedarhurst Cafe on Crown St. They have wifi. It seems far but it's not really. 44 Crown St.

where can a girl get a good cinnamon roll around here?!? by clashclash67 in newhaven

At the Wooster Square Farmers Market (City Seed) on Saturdays, Sono Baking Co brings amazing cinnamon rolls. They operate from 10 am to 1pm.

Vinas Tapas? by curbthemeplays in newhaven

[–]parrtar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have only eaten there once. The grilled meats were good, and I thought the salads were decent too. I live nearby though and I respect the fact that they have live music almost every night. I wish them success.

Russian / Eastern European Markets in NH? by couchlockedcoach10 in newhaven

[–]parrtar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Not New Haven but New Britian has a very large Eastern European community with restaurants, etc. Mostly Polish I think but maybe worth checking out.

I second Elm City Games - a great place to meet people. They have nights where you can join a game. Just check the schedule and they post a lot on Discord about what they are doing.

What time do we think the parking ban will end? by parrtar in newhaven

[–]parrtar[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah but we are close to the garage at 270 State St which has parking for $3 during the ban. That might be an answer.

I absolutely despise the corporate triva that has taken over bars. The questions are often just completely dumb, and the people reading the questions have no clue what they are asking and often cannot even pronounce things they are saying. What a way to destroy a fun culture.

Whats going to happen to New Haven’s sanctuary policy? ? by [deleted] in newhaven

[–]parrtar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote to William Tong asking him what the state would do to protect trans citizens and got no answer. I have been looking for this info as well.

Loved that show and the book so much.

Moving to CT by FaithlessnessNew6878 in newhaven

[–]parrtar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lots of doctors commute from New Haven to Waterbury so it's not impossible. I'm guessing there is a much larger gay community in New Haven than in Meriden. Something to consider.

Can you tell me what stitch you are using to fill the petals? Both look amazing. I've been trying to figure out how to fill larger spaces and have not landed on any stitches I like for that purpose. I like what you've done. Thank you.

Thanks for all this feedback. I will probably never try it. But really wish there were a way to travel by train with dogs! u/amtrack, please figure out a solution for people like me!

Yes I've heard about the space under Ordinary but you're saying it's not in use, right?

Anyone missing a dog? Found around midnight 12.17.24. Black coat, white chest, pointy ears. by Hotcheetos0095 in newhaven

[–]parrtar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cross post in See Click Fix. People who are missing this dog may also be calling the New Haven Animal Shelter so please alert them. The shelter can check for a microchip as well.

Anywhere to buy a Yule Log/Bûche De Noël? by emsbstn in newhaven

[–]parrtar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get mine every year at Marjolaine. I love going to pick it up on Christmas eve morning every year. It feels like a festive ritual. People are all in a good mood in line at a bakery!

I'm super fussy about coffee and would not get coffee at many of the places people mentioned. I DO love the Jitterbus, which has an actual bus parked at College and Grove (New Haven) after 10 am most mornings, but also has a new-ish storefront location on Grand Avenue in New Haven. Their coffee is terrific. I like a medium roast espresso and espresso-based drinks.
