I saw this dude on TikTok (Aaron uploadz or something) who’s making posts from grocery stores, book stores, libraries, etc harassing the employees, customers, etc and I’m finding myself so frustrated? He’s also harassed ppl on church street and he’s wearing meta glasses. Posting so folks working in local businesses are aware.

This article is extremely vague. “WCAX has learned of the possibility that Nectar’s will return after shutting its doors last summer, citing the impact of Main Street construction and staffing issues.”

Who has the scoop?

If you haven't heard yet, Elon has cut off Starlink to Ukraine. It's critical to nearly every facet of their lives- from civilians to to the battlefield. That Trump and Elon would do this to a desperate European democracy is abhorrent. I don't know what we can do besides gather, march, and demand, but something MUST be done. Internet service has to be restored to these poor people IMMEDIATELY.

Does anyone know of planned demonstrations scheduled in Chittenden county? Is there a group I can contact? I have never been this ashamed and angry, and with the idiot man-child at the helm, there has been plenty to be ashamed of and mad about. I feel so goddamned helpless. I can't even imagine how Ukrainians must feel. This is pure evil.

This is the gofundme for the children of the woman whose life was taken in front of them in Burlington.... please donate and if you can't afford to... at least take the moment to share it.

If there are any science fiction fans out there: I’ll be interviewing Annalee Newitz about their books at Phoenix Books at 7:00PM.

Annalee founded the website io9 and has written some of the best science fiction novels in recent years: Autonomous, The Terraformers, and Automatic Noodle, as well as a bunch of nonfiction books (Scatter, Adapt, Remember, Four Lost Cities, and Stories Are Weapons). They just had a new one come out called A Wall Is Also A Road, which is fantastic.

That race isn't in my district, so I've got no dog in the fight. However, it seems like she's always in the middle of one controversy or another. Is being a provocateur just part of her schtick?

Hi! I’m looking for a job. I’m a Burlington local and I hate my current job and am looking for a new one. For some reason nobody posts jobs on Indeed anymore! Could someone tell me some local places that are hiring?

Thanks! 😊

Some guy in a grey suv just drove by me while I was sitting on my porch and asked if he could suck my toes for cash and then lingered. Has this happened to anyone else who is this guy 😭

Local musician/artist here! I have been trying to get in touch with someone at Monkey House for about a year now and haven't heard back. I have a few other friends who say they've emailed and can't get a reply either. Are they no longer booking locals or are they just really bad at communicating? I get if we're not the sound they're looking for but it would be nice to at least get a reply! Has anyone had any luck? Are their any other venues in Winooski area that book and pay local music?

I saw that Burlington is starting an ABA basketball team. Is anyone familiar with this league? I only saw season pass tickets available, I'm curious if individual game tickets will be available at any point? Looking to gauge if folks are interested in supporting this.

Considering the massive success and hype of VT Green the last few seasons, it seems like this could be a parallel to that but for basketball? Maybe I'm reaching a bit

Has anyone been? Do they actually have good cocktails?

never paid for water before so i’m wondering what people are paying on average for water per month. live in a 3 bed and it’s been approx 125 / month. is that standard?

EDIT: okay so seems like maybe we’re being robbed???

in our most recent bill, we used 800 units = $46 for water usage, then sewer treatment was $80

we have a dishwasher which we run ~2 per week and don’t do a ton of handwashing. subjectively, i think we do an average amount of laundry and none of us take long showers. not sure about the toilet situation / age of appliances

recently moved here and don’t have my connections! I know Burlington is broadly progressive but I wanna be able to book my first manicure in comfort knowing I won’t be harshly judged by the person across from me.

Not looking for anything fancy, just a clean up and some paint…
Thank you!!

Hey beautiful people! My wife and I are visiting Burlington this weekend (Friday to Sunday) and are hoping to enjoy the fall foliage in your beautiful city and the surrounding areas. 🍂
Any suggestions on must-visit spots in Burlington or scenic places within a 20–30 minute drive? We’d also love recommendations for fun activities or things to do this weekend.
We both don’t drink, so wineries and pubs aren’t really our thing. We’d love to hear about your favorite scenic drives, hikes, viewpoints, cute towns, or any hidden gems we shouldn’t miss!
Looking forward to exploring your beautiful area. Thanks so much for your suggestions! 😊
