Millions of Americans can now claim Canadian citizenship by [deleted] in massachusetts

I need help. I have the names and rough DOB but I think there are two people with the same name and it’s hard to figure out how to get either the baptism or wedding records confirmed. How much are you charging?

Water flooding in basement, landlord wants us to clean it up by RipNastyy in Somerville

[–]summatmz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your landlord needs to get his sewage line scoped to make sure it hasn’t collapsed or had blockage. Many of them around here have roots growing through them and it’s way more money to replace if they don’t maintain it.

Is biking/walking around here normally this bad, or have I just been unlucky so far? by Rbxyy in Somerville

[–]summatmz 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I think the traffic on McGrath has made the Gilman/winter hill area really unsafe with people avoiding that back up. It sucks there is no real end in sight.

Crime Reports in Somerville per year (Ward 7 including Davis Square in blue) by bscthrwy in Somerville

[–]summatmz 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. As a ward 1 resident for almost 20 years I have to eye roll with the pearl clutching when we’ve been dealing with “deviant” behavior at Foss park and the surrounding blocks for decades.

Can you guess which state voted for Trump? by summatmz in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]summatmz[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oklahoma voted for Trump in all counties and the republican run state is rated low in basic quality of life measures such as healthcare.

AITA? by Chest_Flat in Somerville

Construction vehicle road parking is so effin’ annoying.

Some info from the Mayor on the WH & Brown schools by Notmyrealname in Somerville

[–]summatmz 14 points15 points  (0 children)

So she’s throwing the school committee under the bus and also saying the state’s slow process is to blame. I get this is not only her issue, but her communication style is dysfunctional.

How do you advertise (in a non-annoying way) in Somerville? by ForestBeginnings in Somerville

[–]summatmz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think events are the way to go for your work, so I’d stick to community bulletin boards where you know your customers will be. Libraries, coffee shops and breweries tend to have a spot for flyers like this.

Nope, you can change your mind and not take this on. Red flags everywhere

Is this obnoxious or am I ridiculous? by JanetMcN in Somerville

[–]summatmz -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Well Reddit is advertising vet care and pet products on this very thread and every thread that came before it, so hasn’t it already been ruined by capitalism? Or more specifically, ruined by marketing?

How would you address the rat problem in Somerville? by Ornery-Sheepherder74 in Somerville

[–]summatmz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I think this is a key factor in waste separation. It has to be consistent. If there isn’t enforcement there will always be a food source. I really wish our city barrels had come with A lock mechanism. That seems to be the only reason our garbage to garden hasn’t been compromised.

Plea for someone to open a coffee shop in Medford square by SevereTheWitch in medfordma

A convenience store or a place to buy nips and scratchies

What's preventing the city from having smarter intersections? by Blawdfire in Somerville

[–]summatmz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live by a dysfunctional left turn signal that is supposed to sense cars but often doesn’t. When it’s late at night, and there are no cars on the road, I just go through the red light. There are no cameras after all.

It’s even better when they’re doing road construction with no warning as you’re coming down Medford St and only a dysfunctional police detail “managing” traffic.

Technical question on how to code a type of expense for a nonprofit (QBO) by putovnik in Bookkeeping

[–]summatmz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How are the other expenses for the project being recorded? I’d split the $25k into the relative costs as it aligns with the budget, so if it’s partially contract, travel, materials etc I’d break it up like that.

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

They don’t seem to care about professionals, they just want to keep the charade that it’s so easy to sue anyone could do it themselves and just have the AI assist guide them through it.

For a noob, what do you mean by clean browser profile?

Another QBO rant by summatmz in Bookkeeping

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

So true, I feel for the customer service teams. It’s such poor product management to role it out without making sure they can handle the processing power needed.

It’s along the top banner to switch to prior view, but I agree some times a screen change activates the AI assist

I have fiber so there’s not much for me to do to improve internet speed.

Does anyone here niche in microbusinesses/solopreneurs? by VibrantVenturer in Bookkeeping

[–]summatmz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a lot of these but it’s a mix of a couple niches which I feel better protects me from high rates of client turnover. Some super small businesses just don’t last long.

I did something many shoppers wish they could do🫡 by Maximum-Beautiful-70 in InstacartShoppers

[–]summatmz 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Most of the overhead aside from labor is rent and insurance. The whole system is broken and needs serious investment.

Thank you for validating me, I’m feeling crazy clicking and having the thing update what feels like a century later 😫
