That was a different guy, although we might be inclined to handle the landlord problem in a similar fashion.

Not near Naugatuck but can definitely be your friend!

You're an actual troll, you're like 15 years old.

I missed that one.

The 10% threshold for "chronic absenteeism" is actually pretty low. That's not to say we shouldn't be working on kids getting to school when they can, but we're also doing a better job now than pre-COVID on keeping kids home when they're not feeling well, combined with multiple illnesses hitting hard after a couple years of relative isolation.

Lots of music and art stuff. Can always find a friend in Black Rock haha

I applied and never even heard anything. Like, ever. I completely forgot about this

Great read

Not gonna lie his brain is working well for a dude who fell off in 1976

Maybe, just maybe, you should be more concerned as to why the kids are so out of control that the teachers and administration feels the need to take their recess away to begin with.

This is exactly why my circle is like three people.

Fuck this mentality.

I'll take a down to earth hot mess of a friend over fake ass vanity any day.

Why have friends if you can't tell them how you feel? They..then..are not friends..

Smdh. I hate Manchester so much.

Ignore that person OP. I’ve done this exact same thing before (same sort of post on a site like this, same feelings of embarrassment about it, etc.). I’m 42F and married but I’m happy to be a person to chat with if you need an ear. I’ve done a lot of therapy in my life and in fact have a telehealth appt with my out of state therapist on Friday.

We are new to CT and don’t have any friends here. We’re moving to Milford this weekend. Feel free to DM anytime. All of my friends live in my phone these days and they are both male and female.

I was approved....then I wasn't....and still have the letters in my vehicles explaining why I'd be out on the roads while the public was supposed to be isolated at home. $91, eh. Shows how good our leaders are with numbers lol.

Thanks for the hero work you did during pandemic!

And you think recess helps with obesity? Childhood obesity IS the fault of lazy parenting!!! But I do agree with OP that recess should not be used as punishment. I also think kids should be in school ALL year round like they do in "smarter" countries, but that is just my opinion!!

Do you like live music?

I use going to live music to boost my mood sometimes. I don’t know where you are but the are great little bars/venues that host great local music. And it’s a great way to meet some new people.

Look into disc golf in your area. Fun communities all over CT if you like throwing frisbees and hiking

Speculation is that they are taking the "Donuts" out since Dunkin officially changed its name from Dunkin Donuts to just Dunkin.

Sailor take warning

Beautiful

The only thing I can think is that maybe because the assault mentioned in article took place off school property (not sure where others/if others took place), they basically wipe their hands clean of it even if school admin knows?

It’s almost as if it’s a prevalence of guns and the borderline fetishization culture surrounding them that’s the issue

But as we all know, logic dictates we should just either ban them or smugly talk about how the news reports got a minuscule detail about the gun wrong instead of addressing the actual problems

A bunch of people are lonely (especially because of Covid). Saying you are lonely is perfectly fine. Many of us can relate.
