False.

Aside from this subreddit, you mean?

I’m curating my cobwebs for Halloween.

I absolutely love Concord for this reason. My people!

The light really was spectacular today!

I’d rather just poke fun at it, especially when someone is all in a lather over it.

And new residents are a very convenient bogeyman, it feels better, and is much, much easier for you to pin everything on them.

You're making a lot of assumptions.

Yeah, we stopped being tourists when we invested our hard earned dough into a home, taxes, supporting businesses, and being good neighbors.

No, you don't want new residents and you'll look for things to pick at because of that. I mean, own your shit, man.

OP is asking some questions, and shared her situation. Nothing wrong with that.

OP, I love Southern NH (Monadnock Region). Gorgeous part of the state, access to things we need within a reasonable drive, good neighbors. I also like the area around Salisbury, Boscawen, Warner, Webster. GL with the search.

I really need to try these, I go to the goodwill in Manch (ok) and Amherst (meh) but I've always wanted to try my luck at the bins.

As thrifting goes, I like the Nashua Savers a lot.

It does. I’m in Bennington and consider it part of that region. Sounds like one last blast snowstorm.

Some of you guys could use a little more resilience and a little less grievance.

Very on brand for this sub. I truly believe some of you would literally burn money if you thought it would annoy a Masshole.

But you haven’t been able to articulate how this is mutilation.

But it's like a bill saying "the school nurse shall not be allowed to perform brain surgery". In other words, a solution without a problem, if you're talking about mutilation. Schools aren't mutilating children.

These bills have absolutely NOTHING to do with healthcare in terms of drugs or surgery for gender affirming care. And I think you know that.

um, wut?

riiiight, and not supporting trans rights is a neutral position? come on, man.

No, YOU put the "hateful bigot" word in my mouth. I'm trying to add substance to a discussion that is often too vague and too loaded to be useful. Aside from that, can you give an example? Even a hypothetical. "not including parents in discussions" doesn't really say anything. "guardrails" doesn't say anything. If this is meaningful to you, and you have skin in the game, can you please say more about what you realistically think this bill addresses? What wrongs are corrected?

Can you give an example?

Please be specific. What exactly are teachers/administrators doing wrong right now, in the year of our lord 2023, for NH (or American) public school students, as it pertains to trans students. You can cite a real life example in the news or from your own kids, if you have them, or ???. Seriously, if you don't want to be perceived as a hateful bigot, say something substantive. We'll wait.

Do you have kids in public schools and if so, have you ever felt you weren’t given reasonable access to curriculum, policy, procedures?

You can’t have public education without the “state”, so….
