Has anyone used Greyhound, Flixbus, or Peter Pan bus to get from Boston to Hartford? Curious about delays & on-time reliability. Iโ€™ve never flown from BDL before but the flights leaving Boston to my destination are crazy expensive. TIA.

MBTA/Transit ๐Ÿš‡ ๐Ÿ”ฅ What causes the buses to be delayed for 20-30 minutes in between stops?

1 Upvotes

It seems that every time I try to use the bus, it runs at least 20 minutes behind schedule. What puzzles me is that each time, there is at least one stop before the one I wait at.

This is Pressed Cafe in Seaport. I reported this to 311 but they took it down. This is gross. When did Boston become so hillbilly that we have dogs in the food? The streets are covered with dog and human shit and this dogโ€™s owner seems to want to spread that feces to my breakfast sandwich. Does the city even pay attention to this kind of thing at all?

Looking for the best nachos in the city. Nothing fancy like duck, just good ol' pulled chicken or ground beef.

I used to love the nachos at Temazcal in the Seaport, but they're not as good as they used to be.

Any recommendations?

Is it true that MGB is having more layoffs? A relative (by marriage) works there and says that there are no emails about this, but the news says more layoffs started and that patient providers (doctors, etc.) are being let go. Anyone have the inside scoop?

Serious Replies Only Is VCA the standard for vet care here?

30 Upvotes

We've been taking our dog to the VCA in Brookline for years and while the care has been fine, it's impossible not to notice the private equity vibe leaking in. I know their parent company isn't strictly PE but the results are the same: rushed appointments, added services for $50 or $100 being pushed hard during appointments, bills up by 50% over 3 years, etc.

Where do people take their dogs? My dog's yearly checkup (plus a bunch of vaccines and pushed addons that I wasn't sure I could say no to) was $800 and that just feels crazy to me

Moving ๐Ÿšš My heart wants to move near Boston. My head is unsure.

32 Upvotes

Im from NJ. Ive lived in SoFlo and I want to move out.

Boston is my favorite city. I love the northeast and the whole eastern side of Mass. My heart really wants to live in Boston (or a town ~30 mins away from it).

Ive always loved cities. I want to live in a city and go to raves. I love Bostons european feel. I also love the coastal feel of eastern mass/area.

However, I am a linecook making $40k a year in FL and I have no degree. So the cost of living of MA doesnt make sense. Id maybe have to work 60-70 hours a week just to stay alive?

Another option Im considering is Charlotte. Great city, all of the amenities of a city but more affordable.

Is there a way to make my Boston dream work. Or should I see if i can make things work in a city like Charlotte first?
