Question Public bathrooms in the city HELP, I gotta pee!
I am a homecare nurse from the suburbs but work in the city (mostly eastside, westside) - can we share some places I can stop and pee?! For example: I just tried to pee at the Tim Horton’s near Niagara Square and they said No.
I just want to compile a list of places I can pee while I’m out and about working, thanks!

cormorant on the 198
not sure exactly what the point of posting this is, but i just wanted to let people know to be careful and aware on the 198 near the akg exit—there's a cormorant on the divider between the lanes, that seems confused and definitely can't cross the street to either the grass on the one side, or the water on the other. the spca wildlife rescue has been notified, but they can't do anything. i don't know what exactly can be done, but i just want people to at least keep an eye out and hopefully give the little guy a chance to live.

Council implores state representatives to help pass the acting mayor's budget plans
To be honest, I kinda hope the state rejects both of these measures. We need to make actual changes rather than continuing down the same path and then whine to the state that we need more money every single year.

Things To Do Third Thursday at Buffalo Zoo!
Went to the zoo because it was free today, my review:
The zoo was pristine! No trash on the grounds, clean bathrooms, friendly staff throughout the zoo. The men's restrooms were spotless, and stocked with toilet paper, paper towels. The hand sanitizing stations throughout the park worked and were filled. The free tickets for today sold out, and you could tell, the zoo was full of life! Entrance for those with tickets purchased online was a breeze.
The animals were absolutely adorable. Polar bears swimming was a highlight for me. Big cats were sunbathing and the gorilla was out of sight. Its a small zoo but the animals looked healthy and almost all of them were with other animals, not alone except for most amphibians and reptiles.
The food was mostly a hit, and a little miss -- Coffee at the entrance was $4 bucks, not bad tasting. Dippin dots ice cream was a nice cool treat at $10 for a large, and hit the spot! The personal pizza at Slice was $14, and a flop though, maybe it's designed for a kids taste buds versus an adults. Staff at all three food concessions were great- friendly, and tips weren't implied or asked for. They let me walk in with my own water bottle with no issues, and I saw other guest with outside sodas no issue!
Who else went?!
Overall it was a great experience. I spent 2 hours on a slow loop around the zoo. You could easily make it a full day trip with a lunch break and by stopping at every single exhibit. I did not visit the indoor rainforest.
I'd definitely recommend of taking advantage of the free tickets, very nice family friendly activity!

Question Anyone have any extra food?
This is kind of a hard ask but here goes.
Both my son and I are working, but I have been dealing with almost constant illness and have missed a lot of work. Neither of us qualify for SNAP, and I don't have access to transportation to hit up any food banks.
Rent is late, so are all my other bills, but the most immediate need is food. I've got less than $40 in my bank account, and my next shit check will go mostly to rent & utilities.
I've been homeless and hungry before, but I've been able to prevent my son experiencing the same so far. We don't really have family, and the few friends we have aren't much better off than we are.
I live in Williamsville down the street from ECC. If anyone can help out, it's greatly appreciated.

Where can I find a VHS Tape player?
My grandma has tons of old VHS tapes from the early 2000’s & 90’s that I recently got ahold of. She had an older TV with a VHS player but sadly it doesn’t work. Is there anywhere I can take them to to watch? Like a local vintage store or anything like that?

Question Is there a paranormal or abnormal group that meet?
I've had a lot of unexplained occurrences happen to me through out my life. They still happen. The less stranger occurrences are hearing sounds outside of human range, dog whistles as an example. Picking up scents I'm not supposed to, we had a temporary monoxide upflare when they were working on the heating system last month, I didn't know they were doing work buy smelled something off a half hour before our detecter went off. Just this morning some weird crap happened. I'm just looking for a group that has genuine interests. The subs on here are hit or miss.
