This needs to be stickied! Of all the things residents should care about, this should be top. Please please please email your councilors

From the presentation to be given to Councilors. Resident support for municipal broadband is extraordinary, with 66% supporting it, even if tax subsidies are required.

The next steps for creating a municipal fiber are in the city council and city manager's hands! They need your support to move this process forward.

There is no trivia at the Druid since before Covid, I had the same experience as OP when I went to the Druid for trivia on a Wednesday night.
Comment OP, I'd suggest editing your comment ;)

Remnant Brewing does trivia Monday nights, and Lamplighter and Aeronaut has it on Tuesday nights! I also know that Orleans restaurant does trivia Wednesdays too

Phoenix Landing is also on Wednesdays but starts at 7. It can get fairly crowded so you need to show up early.

I haven't been to the trivia at The Druid in a bit but it is still listed in 2022 on Wednesdays from 8-11 if you Google it.

I tried contacting the Driud asking about trivia and they said they hadn't had it for YEARS!
It was like a horror movie. She hasn't lived here since 1896.... that sort of thing.
Maybe it's just an in-the-know kind of thing? Do I have to just go there?

Joe Sent Me in Cambridge. I wouldn’t call it “academic” trivia, but it’s a nice relaxed bar vibe

If you have the capital would suggest buying / taking out mortgage on a 1-2 bedroom condo and selling for 10-20% more when you leave. That way you will be building wealth instead of giving it away to a greedy landlord. Monthly payments will be about the same maybe leas

CEOC at 11 Inman St (Central Square, behind City Hall) could be a great resource as well. They have a food pantry and a variety of benefit advocacy services and free tax preparation.

yeah I was going to guess it was Toronto. hopefully cambridge proves easier for you!
Edit: make sure your future lease stipulates that the security deposit is held in a bank account accruing interest. it’s the law and is often ignored.

How could you tell /s
If you’ve ever lived in or heard of the Toronto housing market - it’s absolutely insanity in availability and pricing.

You sound very prepared! Are you coming from a competitive housing market area? I think you’ll be ok with the information you’re getting here! good luck!

That’s good to know, thank you. The monthly cost is not concerning - it’s the 4 months up front (>10k) and all the initial housing costs that’ll be harder to manage. It’s technically feasible for me to fork up 10k on May 15th for a June 1st lease, but will definitely make the next few months tight until a couple paydays come in.
