I’m looking for resources in New York State, Erie County and/or specifically re senior next level care such as independent living and/or assisted living facilities, what options for those with minimal income and assets. Are there good sites or orgs I could reach out to, to do some research? 85-year-old relative unlikely to be able to return to their apartment to live on their own.

A few days ago I went to see “Hades Town”. My first foray into Broadway shows. Spectacular set, lighting, production, singing, etc. I struggled to understand it all (I am terrible picking out lyrics), but didn’t matter most of the time. Was surprised ’s Ani Difranco was in it, that’s how disconnected I am.

@cassey @aardrian also hadestown is one of my favorite musicals - so glad you enjoyed it, adrian!

@ben
Given how few I have seen, it is now one of my favorites too! It was such a good production that I suspect it will stay that way.

Local BBQ fusion joint, Southern Junction, gets some nice national press:
https://www.cbsnews.com/video/meet-the-chef-putting-a-unique-twist-on-southern-food/

Reflected in local press:

(Used to be a regular lunch visit for me in its first location.)

Somewhat local maple shack / pancake house, Cartwright’s Maple Tree Inn, also gets national press:

(Visited a different pancake joint on my Maple Sunday run a couple weekends ago, but have enjoyed this one.)

@aardrian Be curious to ask my manager, who grew up there, what she thinks of the place. We once talked about Ted's Hot Dogs since I'd been to the one location in the Phoenix area a few times when I lived there. So good.

@jyarbrough I also enjoy the occasional Ted’s dog. It helps that the nearest one is almost around the corner.

Updated well . I switched instances today upon learning that MastodonBooks will be shutting down in June. Thank you @RogerRemacle for giving us all plenty of notice to migrate our accounts. I'm a husband, dad, and living in the NY suburbs, and root for all my local teams. I enjoy reading, and started because I wanted to create the kinds of stories I'd enjoy to read. Nice to meet you all

I am sad that Remedy House in has abruptly gone away:

I stopped by today and just gone.

It was a nifty cafe with a nifty shape and nifty options on a nifty corner.

I am not sure I trust the owners that they have a buyer.

For all the people following the demise of one of my favorite local cafes, Remedy House re-opened on Thursday:

I confirmed on Friday and again this morning.

Kept all the good bits.

I had driven by this giant buffalo statue in #JamestownND a thousand times, but finally decided to stop and photograph it. I was surprised at how tall and anatomically correct it is. North Dakota's politicians could use a set of balls like these.

A rear view photograph of Worlds Largest Buffalo, emphasizing its large anatomical endowment.

@darren There used to be a tunnel nearby. I was always too afraid to go very far in it. 😄

’s NPR station is launching a weekly disability segment:

Wednesdays during Morning Edition (5am) and All Things Considered (4pm).

During the national news programs they sometimes cut away for local weather.

My local weather reports an incoming Java update. Which I suppose is better than snow.

rshig,

@aardrian although, the more I think about it, I'd pretty happily accept an ice age if it meant Oracle went away forever...

aardrian,
@aardrian@toot.cafe avatar

@rshig Considering “ice age” implies temporary compared to the permanent absence of Oracle, I can get on board with that.

Everything south of has been a mess for hours, with every commute route clogged. But thanks for this emergency alert now that most commuters are already out there.

@aardrian I have the sudden urge to travel for no reason.

@cbleslie No reason whatsoever!
