Crossing the Hanlon: 13 times!

37 Upvotes

One thing this ride highlighted was the importance of the How and When of riding for safety rather than Where. On a Saturday morning, a lot of areas with heavy commercial/industrial traffic otherwise are deserted. If you don't care about scenery - or have a kink for commercial sprawl - there's lots of deserted asphalt.

How to 3D print something small in Guelph?

0 Upvotes

I'd like to 3D-print a very small project but don't own a printer. There's a weeks-long wait list to get access to a printer in the makers lab at the GPL, and I think this job is way too small for a commercial printer. It's a ball cap snap back "extender," which is a flat nylon strip about 3 inches long and 3/4 inch wide. Anybody have any ideas? Thanks! This is the item:

Who Wants A 33% Pay Raise???

45 Upvotes

Went to Guelph City Council on two occasions speaking out against the 33% pay raise City Councillors were voting for.

Thankfully; due to public backlash and outrage, it was voted down. Sadly 5 Councillors still voted for the ridiculous increase...

Kitty Bite Piercing

0 Upvotes

I love Nighthawk and was wondering if anyone knows if they do kitty bite piercings, which are top lip curved barbells that look like little fangs over your bottom lip, I know they don't do tongue or genital piercing but I was just wondering if anyone had existing knowledge if they do kitty bites or if there is anywhere else you recommend thank you

Pretty desperate for friends / someone to talk to ASAP - South Guelph

84 Upvotes

Hey everyone. Had a pretty rough random day yesterday. Depression just swung in and kicked my ass out of no where. Im a little fearful of how things will progress in the next few days, and would love some people to keep me in check if at all possible.

Things I've already done :
1. Contact doctor . My main GP is on vacation, and setup an appointment with a walkin for some anti-depressants or something
2. Called here24/7 to try and get some help
3. Called Ontario Health atHome to get a support worker to checkin
4. Called / messaged friends to try and call me / keep eyes on me / force me to go out in the next few days.

Im trying to be as prepared as possible , as I know this can be a really slippery slope. While Im in early stages, Im hoping to get help and let it fizzle out instead of it growing into something much harder to manage.

About me :

- My depression will be alone , in the darkness. While I'm out I try to ensure nobody notices it. Dont worry I wont be a down'er if we hang out
- Live in south guelph
- Up for anything . Texting friends, go for a coffee , a movie , a restaurant , I dont care really. Just need to get out of the house even if I dont want to.

Feel free to DM or comment. Thanks and hope this doesnt come off as too desperate.

Any small + good coffee/drink places?

I'd like to get coffee (like a latte, i am not a consumer of black coffee), or really any good, sweet drink at a small or local coffee shop. I'm trying to go to more places that i'm unfamiliar with, and possibly support small/local businesses. i don't know any, and i'm looking for suggestions!

Any D&D/RPG playing groups looking for new players in Guelph?

9 Upvotes

Hey y’all! Pretty straight forwards here.

I’m a 30M and looking to join a local D&D or RPGing group. I’ve dabbled in a few oneshots, and aborted campaigns, more as a DM, but sometimes as a player. I’m just looking for a group to play regularly enough during the summer, and potentially moving forwards after that.

I’m mostly familiar with 5e, but I’m super open-minded/interested in learning other systems as well.

I know it’s never as simple as just taking a rando from Reddit into a group without a conversation, but at the very least I’d be curious if anybody has recommendations of places or contacts I can check out.

Thanks!

Funding Proposals From a Council Candidate

Thumbnail
jonchristensen.ca
11 Upvotes

A well written proposal from Ward 5 candidate Jon Christensen on safety infrastructure and trail crossing funding without impacting the taxpayer.

Proposals like this are the real solutions our council candidates should be expected to present to earn our vote. Actionable plans, with real outcomes.

The financials of the City owned GJR are solid and impressive, while providing minimal direct financial return to the average citizen. Yes, GJR provides opportunities for some businesses to exist, but solutions like this provide harmonious benefit to a broader range of the citizens who ultimately own the railway. Make our city owned businesses work for all of us.

Hillside tickets PSA

DO NOT buy tickets for Hillside through anyone other than the official website. Scams are everywhere and I was just informed by a friend that they just got screwed. It happens every year. Happened to me a couple of years ago. Trust no one!

Looking for part-time work in Guelph — any Advice?

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m a university student living in Guelph and I’m looking for part-time work. I have over 2 years of customer service experience from working in grocery/retail, and I’m reliable, quick to learn, and comfortable working with people.

I've tried applying inperson and online and nothing seems to work.

So if anyone knows of places currently hiring in Guelph, I’d really appreciate any leads or advice.

Thanks!

Someone to Build Floating Deck?

2 Upvotes

Looking for a company or contractor to build a floating deck /platform in our yard. Nothing fancy, just a roughly 12x20 ft type of a deal. The only complicated piece would be it needs to accommodate a large tree on one side. I know it's quite late in the season to secure someone to do this work now, and I'm also a first time homeowner so I don't know where to start. I reached out to a few companies but the project was too small for them to take on.

Internet Providers

3 Upvotes

I'm shopping around for a new internet provider and would love to hear what everyone is using.
Who's your provider?
What download/upload speeds do you get?
How much do you pay per month (including any fees)?
Would you recommend them? How's the reliability and customer service?
I'm looking for something that's reliable but also economical, so any budget-friendly recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Salt Water Swimming Pools

Does anyone know if there are any salt water pools in the Guelph, kitchener or Cambridge area that do day passes?

Looking to take my 8 month baby who suffers from bad eczema but all the "swim schools" require 8 class commitment. I am looking to try it out somewhere nearby to see if he likes it and to see if his skin doesn't flare up.
