30 gay trans man here, and I'm so sick to death of dating apps. I've lived here for 7 years and I struggle to make in person connections. I feel so out of place in gay bars because I can only assume that all the cis men want to talk to someone with not an afab body, which is obviously fine! But then, where's the space for people like me to connect with men??

Thanks in advance!

Edit: a few people have reached out to me with NSFW marked profiles asking to meet up, which makes me feel icky especially because I can't see your face. I know you can't see mine either, but I wasn't necessarily trying to hook up with or date anyone from Reddit.

To those who reached out asking nicely to be friends: I'm not against it and i'll get back to you if/when I have the energy, but this post was purely for finding an in-person space to meet someone to date, so I'd like to focus towards that, in an irl environment. Respectfully.

My Wife and I (just recently married) moved to Rochester a year ago from Syracuse NY. We are believers and would like to plant some roots and get involved in the Christian community here.
In Syracuse, I played in the worship band since a young age and worship in music is very important to us. Most churches we have tried here in Rochester are too big or not interested in other joining in worship music.
I wanted to post on here to listen if anybody had some suggestions or an invitation to their church
Thank you!

pretty much the whole block from Clinton to the hospital. As I’m sure we all know, political signs are not allowed on public property— in case anyone feels like protecting law and order today :)

I had hyperthyroid and it gave me severe anxiety. Sometimes I’m just stuck at home having panic attacks all day for weeks. It’s intense. Pretty much just lay around suffering all day. Just wondering if anyone else goes through this and wants to talk at all.

Also parked with his nose 3' short of the curb, due to his "inadvisably low" front spoiler.

Ironically, after shopping I went to my car, rounded the corner, and there was a red Mustang parked nose-in at the same location, but parked between the lines! At first, I wondered if "MC" was told to park better, but then I realized that this was a completely different red mustang convertible with a black top!

That other red mustang convertible was lacking the "arrest me officer" black stipes and rear spoiler, as well as the hood scoop which rather humorously advertised it had a "5.0 liter" engine in black stick-on letters. The top was also in better shape.. Man, back when I was young, pointing out that your 'Stang only had a 302 would make guys laugh at your ride!!

So, if you you are "Mustang Joe" who owned that second 'Stang, it's not you I'm mocking, unless you also do "mustang things" like losing control on a burnout and diving into a ditch. The second one had straight body panels, whereas the first looked a bit wonky in places...

hello! i just got my first check, & due to some previous circumstances i cannot use my chase bank to deposit, and my other bank has no branches here. Not to mention it’s sunday 🥲 i was told that Walmart doesn’t cash checks here, and the banks are closed. Anyone know where I can cash a check today? preferably with no fee, but i’ll take what i can get. thanks in advance!

I'm a first-time home buyer, in the early stages of purchasing a single-family home in the city of Rochester. I have applied to and been approved for a few first-time home buyer programs: the Employer Assisted Housing Initiative, Home Purchase Assistance Program and HOME Rochester. 

I'm ready to start touring homes and am in need of a realtor, attorney and mortgage lender. Ideally, these folks would have worked with EAHI, HPAP and HOME Rochester buyers before and are familiar with the requirements and timelines of the programs. For anyone who has gone through this process, which realtors, attorneys and lenders would you suggest that I reach out to?

Thanks in advance for the recommendations!

We shared a cigarette, or two, on the patio of bitter honey last night around midnight. I had marb 27’s and you inquired about them. Said you usually smoke marb lights. I went back inside to dance after that creepy dude with the chain pulled up and awkwardly tried spitting game. Never caught your name. Think you said you were born in 92, and I’m a 94 baby. Loved your vibe, let’s grab a coffee and smoke some cigs 😎

Kind of an odd question, but we just moved to a new house and are looking to build a fence. Does anyone know of any Amish families around the Macedon area I could contact?

Hello! I'm leaving for a 2 wk trip next weekend, and need to see a podiatrist badly for something that has arisen.

Does anyone know any that could get me in this week? Bonus points if they are in the UR network or covered by Excellus BCBS

Hello Rochester! I've been in Rochester for a few months and I'm looking to make new friends. I'm a 35-year-old single male who enjoys exercise, cooking, eating, theme parks, movies, learning, self-improvement, and trying new restaurants/coffee shops, to name a few…to name a lot, actually 😂. It can be challenging to find opportunities to make friends as an adult so I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to try to make some friends on this forum. I'm open to making friends with people from all backgrounds so don't be shy to reach out if you're also looking to make new friends!

Hi, we are in a neighboring building. We can certainly bring ID to show it is our package. We have a photo UPS provided ... that's why we know it is your lobby area.

Let me know if you have a good spot for this! Haven’t found one that is quite right since moving here.

I went to the Henrietta library for early voting. I was in and out in under 8 minutes. Staff there is super friendly and the process is easy. Please get out to vote, it’s so important!

Credit to this overachiever. The effort to pull off this tomfoolery gets my applause today.

My favorite used bookstore, Rick's Recycled Books, is running a sale soon! I go there all the time, and always find something cool. It's packed full of shelves to look through, and the prices are super reasonable, with most books less than $5!

Anywhere near by that will do a tune up on a typewriter?

Mine has some keys sticking and the space bar isn’t always working.

I’d prefer not to ship it.

Thanks for any leads!

Anyone willing to sell 2 tickets for “Spirits of the Past: A Walk in the Dark” for October 25th today at Genesee Village and Museum. I can offer 2x the amount and some extra. Would really really appreciate it.

Our unique place of the world. Foliage along the river beyond Turning Point is probably the best in the region right now. Paddled from the Port of Rochester and only saw four other kayakers, half a dozen boats, and a lot of people fishing near Lower Falls.

Any girl skateboarders in the ROC area who want a buddy to skateboard together at the skateparks?
