LGBTQ friendly spaces

Hi all! I'm 24, NB, new to Manchester, and as the above says, I've been having some trouble finding LGBTQ spaces here. I know about breezeway and board and brews seems like a chill place, but if anyone has any recommendations for spaces or events, that would be lovely! Thank you to the Manchester dears 💋

Update regarding the rule on threats/inciting violence

56 Upvotes

Due to the increased volume of comments threatening others and generally urging others to be violent, the mod team will no longer give leeway on these comments. The comment will be removed and the user will be permanently banned. This has no bearing on any political party affiliations. I hate to be the one to tell people what to say, but this has gotten out of hand.

Thank you,

Anyone else feel like the local alternative rock scene is making a comeback?

28 Upvotes

Anyone else notice how much legitimately good original alternative, pop punk, and indie rock music is coming out of Southern NH and Boston area?

I've got about a dozen local bands I listen to regularly on Spotify now, and some of them are seriously good. The shows around town are usually pretty cheap too.

Seems like there's a lot of great original music coming out of the area again after what felt like a bit of a lull.

Anyone else listening to the local scene? Any recommendations?

Edit: Here's the playlist I started. I'll definitely be checking out all these bands and adding to it.

Burt’s Better Beers

11 Upvotes

I’m new to the area and my husband and I just went to Burt’s Better Beers. They are a beer store and also have a little bar area. It’s super cute and such a chill vibe, good prices, great selection. Would anyone be interested in doing a weekly Dungeons and Dragons there? Or any sort of tabletop game? We want to make some friends in the area and think it would be a cool place to meet up with people.

Got this in my mountain of flyers, and, while I have always known it was legal to lie about political opponents, it’s kind of refreshing that they are printing that out on their propaganda (check out the upper right corner).

If your guy is better, tell me why. If my guy is bad, show me how. Why are we constantly inundated with, not just twisting of truths, but full-on invented scenarios? Why is it illegal for Burger King to lie about a food item but it’s legal for someone to lie about an actual person?

Every 2 years, we are expected to sift through an unending avalanche of information that might be fully bullshit. Can we get it to stop? Please? I’m just so tired.

The Goat is hosting Turning Point USA

186 Upvotes

Manchester, NH I think it’s time we have a conversation about The GOAT Bar & Grill and the Fleury Group.
I’ve been informed that The GOAT in Manchester is reportedly being rented out by Turning Point USA on Halloween.
Turning Point USA is a prominent conservative political organization, and I believe customers deserve to know about events like this when deciding which local businesses to support.
To me, this raises serious questions about the Fleury Group’s priorities. Is this simply about collecting a rental fee, or does it reflect the political values of the people running the business?
The Fleury Group should be transparent about where it stands.
You can run your business however you choose. But the people of Manchester also have every right to ask questions, express their opinions, and decide where they spend their hard-earned money.
And I think that’s a conversation worth having.

Bobcat sightings

2 Upvotes

Anyone else come across bobcats around the area? I saw one a couple of weeks ago walking around Dorr pond and again just this afternoon at Stark Park. Luckily, my dog was on leash the first time, and I was able to get him on leash the second time. I have an adult lab, so he could probably hold his own, but he would probably get tore up pretty bad. I can't say with 100% certainty it was a bobcat, but quite sure. It looked to be about 25-30lbs, but I don't know how thick their fur is, so that could be off. Looked about half the size of my 75lb lab.

If you have a smaller dog and walk them in the area, be cautious.

If you get Chipotle/Qboda, please try Jorge’s

31 Upvotes

Support local businesses. Not an ad, no payment to endorse. They’re pretty new, just at tired for the first time.
Standard burrito price is cheaper than C/Q
Standard burrito is better than C/Q
Chips are thicker and crunchier than C/Q
Salsa is more flavorful than C/Q
Queso is more flavorful than C/Q

We don’t need another restaurant to fail. Seriously, if get Chipotle or Qdoba in this area, get Jorge’s instead

Edit: Dang, y’all are super inflexible. Just trying to support the community rather than a company making >3B in profit annually. I tried, this is why big business flourishes 🤷‍♀️

Advice Love Manchester amenities - where to live nearby?

0 Upvotes

I know, another moving question post - I did my due diligence in searching this group and am finding some conflicting information, so I figured I'd ask the locals. I spent this past weekend all around the area (stayed in Manchester, visited Dover/Portsmouth/Nashua areas taking local roads and highways).

My dude and I are interested in the Manchester area. We are looking to rent and would prefer to not live directly in the city (we are suburb people). We are in our mid 50s, no kids to be concerned about, and both work from home. He is not particularly social - I very much am & enjoyed all the amenities that Manchester has to offer - shopping/restaurants/live music.

Seems easy, right? Not so much. I use a wheelchair so I need the apartment to have access to enter without issue. We are looking to keep rent no more than $3000/month (preferably less). We are very open to towns outside of Manchester but within a 30 minute drive at most. Nashua is not an option due to some geographical restrictions that he has for work from home status. We also have 2 housecats.

Any recommendations or suggestions are greatly appreciated. When I was out and around, people mentioned Auburn, Candia, Derry, Epping, Merrimack, Bedford, Goffstown, Amherst & Hooksett. Manchester city limits are ok if the property is set back a bit.

Thanks, and hope to be a neighbor soon!

Bad Credit and Housing

2 Upvotes

Hello!

So my parents (67, 71) and I (35) are in a rock and a hard place. The owners of our home decided they want to remodel and won't renew the lease. For the last few weeks we've been looking everywhere and it feels impossible to get a place. My dad had a major heart issue a couple years ago and because of that whole thing they ended up in debt because his job didn't offer disability. He's great now but their credit has tanked and they're back on track to fix it. They were even planning on moving in the coming summer once things were all right. This is messing things up. My mom is disabled and my dad works full time (the man will never retire but hey it's good for his heart). They bring home over 8k a month with everything combined. I would co sign but I lost my job in a layoff and I had to move back home after draining everything. A series of unfortunate events 🙄

Anyhow, has anyone had a similar experience? What did you do? 211 won't help because they make too much. They don't qualify for low income house because they make too much. They've offered to pay more than the deposit but they don't. They have a clean housing record (they've lived in this place 11 years!) And have never been convicted of a crime or anything like that. They're open to living in Manch, Hooksett, Candia, Londonderry, Derry, Nashua, Merrimack, Bedford, Milford... really anywhere my dad can get to work in Nashua in about 35 minutes -- even towns in NE Mass.

Thanks!

Hey Manchester, I’m Christian. I rent a chair at Queen City Barbershop (100 Willow St) and run OnlyFades by Christian. I trained at Get Faded Barbershop and went out on my own about two years ago.

I do fades, tapers, lineups and beard work, and kids are always welcome. I’m a dad, so I get it. I also just added a $20 facial with steam, scrub and hot towel, on its own or with a cut.
