Hey guys, I don’t know if you heard of this but I just found out that the Bridgeport caberet theater is closing and I was wondering if you guys would like to sign this petition to save it: https://c.org/hR5sSYcynH
This location at Tri-City Plaza opened in October 1976 which replaced W.T. Grant department store. This store closed when Caldor went out of business in 1999. This location was eventually occupied first by Ames (also went out of business three years later), Price Chopper supermarket and then (currently) ShopRite supermarket.
I can't believe this fool racked up over 200k in purchases on a city credit card and then ran for governor. Meanwhile this state continues to degrade into some kind of taxation and surveilance theme park.
How is it possible that this is the best the republicans can come up with? This beautiful state just gets worse and worse and the approach was to find a fraudster and then have her run as a Trump style MAGA republican? in CT!?!?! It would be funny if another flock camera hadn't gone up in the time it took me to type this out.
What a joke.
TLDR- they want to make it so you’re forced to hand over your ID, face scan and or financial documents to talk to ANY AI bot. Doesn’t matter if it’s Claude, ChatGPT, your internet company’s AI bot that helps with your bill, DoorDash support, hand over your ID.
Everyone needs to contact their lawmakers and tell them to vote NO on this draconian shit.

whats going on with stop and shop their prices are outrageous compared to other stores. for instance Scott toilet paper at stop and shop is 6.99 big y is 4.99 and big y in my opinion use to be the more expensive store now I find so many good prices there. and to top it off does stop and shop not have a butcher anymore all the steaks are prepackaged and disgusting.
According to CT law, Costco ( and BJ's etc) has to sell liquor to the general public, not members only. They always scan my Costco membership card, but maybe that's just to track who is buying what. Their prices on Kirkland branded products are insane, like 50% less than similar name brands, sometime even more than that. I don't remember ever seeing a non-member buying liquor. Is everyone unaware they can shop there? I'm surprised it's not more popular.
TLDR: The combined state and local spending will increase by $35M, but still short of the $44M claimed to be needed. What's missing in the article is how Bpt spending per pupil compares to other cities and what is the cause of the $44M shortfall.
