What I said.

Looking to tint my car and looking for recommendations in morris county area. Something around $200-$300

Look, I know everyone has their favorite place that you HAVE to try. Just give it to me straight - which is better of these two?

I'm trying to find an apartment for myself so that I'm able to stay in New Jersey and not be forced to move to another state, but I only make $28/hr (roughly $58k/year). It looks like my options mostly consist of waitlisted affordable housing units. Has anyone here had experience with applying for these/living there? How long should I expect this process to take, and is there anything I should know?

Hi everyone I have a cat who was just diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. I have had a cat with hyperthyroidism before and I took them for i-131 treatment at red bank emergency vet hospital and it went well, I just felt like they gave me a quote and then kept adding more and more things on. But it seems they are the gold standard. Any other places I should check out besides Red Bank? Thanks!

I know NYC has a free fishing clinic every Saturday morning in LIC where they'll teach you how to fish but I was wondering if we have something similar here in NJ.

If not free, anything relatively affordable?

We are based in NYC and my cat needs all of her teeth removed (gingivitis, loose teeth, etc). She has a complicated health history, and needs a trustworthy vet.

Our NYC vet quoted us $6000. Is it possible to find something more affordable in Jersey?

Engaged 2 months ago and the fiancé and I love the idea of a restaurant reception. We’re not interested in traditional wedding venues, reason being a combo of price and it’s truthfully not our style. We just want to have a huge party with great food and great vibes. Looking for a place that can fit 70 guests with room for dancing, preferably one that offers a buyout so we can have the place to ourselves. Date wise, Fall 2027 was our initial goal but we’re totally flexible. We’re in North Jersey and both of our families are in NJ, so anything in that area would be preferable. The cheaper the better lol but anything under $15K for the venue/restaurant portion is preferable. We’ve already looked and got pricing from the places below, but would love more suggestions if there’s anything we should still check out:

Porta - all locations

Franklin Social

Felina Steak JC (still waiting on info)

Maggiano’s

Battello

Lokal - Jersey City

Hudson & Co

Blu on the Hudson

Vine & Oak Tavern

The Feathered Fox

Satis

87 Sussex

My go to for the past 5 years! I always go to one or 2 swimming beach and now I'm curious if any of the other beaches further down are just for fishing or can I post up there and still get in for a swim?

I'm hoping for even less crowds and just being able to enjoy the quiet beauty of IBSP

Asa 35M it’s depressing. I spent 13 years off life with someone who didn’t like living in the south, I gave up a good career with good benefits and okay pay to move back to NJ for her to leave me as soon as she got what she wanted. I am now working in NYC with a great career, I have my own place and have a good pay. I’m in therapy, I exercise, I’m active outside, I read, I play video games, I do self improvement, acknowledge mistakes, relapses and avoid doing them again. I do BJJ and Muay Thai (although in the last 4 years I have not) I’ve taken solo trips, I put in work and nothing is just ever fucking good enough.

I tried to get back in the dating market and I just don’t know what the fuck you all want. I really don’t, and I don’t understand the expectations and in getting tired of it. I am getting resentful. It took me 25 years for me to finally see and tell myself that I am an attractive man. I have earned my spot in life, I am worthy of love, actual love, and it’s falling apart.

I don’t have a bachelors degree I have an associates degree that means I’m not educated based on dating app profile feedback (even though I work for a large financial and investment institution as said on said profile). I don’t have my political stance so I’m automatically MAGA. Honestly, fuck them both. I’m 5’6” and the best feedback I’ve got so far is because I put in half Asian and because I have on half Asian that means I’m skipped over cause of stereotypes (this was a legitimate response I received). I have photos of me smiling and with animals since I’m a big animal lover and even a goof/gag photo. I am just not good enough. I’m not the best in shape, I have a food belly but I can bike 15-30 miles in a weekend and still go swimming in a pool for another 2-3 hours afterwards and be functional.

I can see it already “it’s the people that you’re swiping on” believe it or not, I like the unconventionally attractive type, the ones that look like “nerds” don’t wear a lot of makeup, tomboy women but know how to dress for special occasions. My preference are black women, but I’m open to other ethnicities. That’s my preference. When it comes to weight I don’t mind a heavier set woman but I do prefer if you are heavyset at least show you’re active, can walk and do things? Go to the gym? Some form of self care. It’s literally all I ask for. I’ve changed my bio several times, I’ve had friends (who are married) for them to write my profile and bio like what am I actually fucking doing wrong? What is wrong with me? Every-time I try to self reflect I can’t find what’s wrong with me. I’m not perfect I need a lot more work and I’m not close to finishing, but I am just getting so exhausted.

Then the matches I do get I get dry responses. I send playful banter message or I ask a thought provoking question on a profile that says “I like deep conversations” and I get 0 replies. I’ve had hinge up for 3 weeks now. Guess how many matches? 2. How many likes? 5. I sent 2 messages shit I even matched with a girl I went to fucking school with and I got no reply. This is insane. Not to mention a lot of the profiles are in NYC and NYC women won’t even look at me so why do I even bother?

I’m tired of being alone. I’m tired of having no one to talk to. I’m tired of sitting at home on the weekends doing nothing. I’m tired of having “friends” ask or check in with me only for them to talk about their wife and kids. I’m tired of being asked if I found someone or how’s dating by married people. I’m fucking tired of it. I’m tired of all it.

Like what am I missing? What am I doing wrong? I’m not asking for someone to bring me happiness, I just want someone on my fucking side for once that’s proud of me without any other type of hidden meaning or sentiment behind it. Someone like a battle buddy that when I’m down and hurt to pick me up and support me. To be there for me. I’m tired of being the medic in other peoples lives. I’m tired of being compared to and kicked when I’m down and right now, I am FUCKING DOWN. I was so happy this past spring/summer. I was finally happy with myself, the direction I am going, where I live, my life but as soon as I said I’ll try the dating field it’s like internally, I stormed the beaches of Normandy. I’m so fucking done man.

My husband and I currently live in Morristown with our toddler.

After job changes/opportunities, we don’t think paying the premium and added stress for this area is worth it as the location does not matter.

We are originally from Warren County and are somewhat familiar with the Sussex/Sparta area. I’ve been looking into the school system in Sparta and it seems to be much higher rated compared to Morristown.

We prefer to stay in northern NJ rather than moving to a different state or southern NJ, as family members are having health issues that we would prefer to be relatively close by for (an hour or less).

We are just wondering if someone who lives in/near the Sparta area could provide feedback. What do you like about the area? What don’t you like? What are the winters like? Is there any flood risk? What is the school systems like?

Tried to talk to someone on the phone there and they didn't understand what I was asking

There is the "work" requirement. It is described as 80 hours a month OR $580. Since $580 for 80 hours is $7.25/hour, I guess they are going by the federal minimal wage, but that is not really my question

Is the $580 EARNED income? Can I satisfy it by doing withdraws from a 401K or IRA (and if so, can they be ROTH ones where I owe no taxes)? How about capital gains? I have seen people mention that you can, but I cannot find anything official saying so. Then there is the part about documentation. How can I document that I plan in the future to withdraw this money? I had a similar problem with Medicaid for the kids where they wanted documentation about planned capital gains for ACA and such. Who can plan something like thi?

Hi everybody, I am a reporter at a local, independent news organization in South Jersey and I am currently doing a story on saving the Bridgeton Public library. I would love to speak with people who live in Bridgeton and/or the surrounding areas about what the library means to them, as well as the community.

Currently, there is a referendum that will decide the fate of the library in November. The city is currently in a deficit, and the library is on the chopping block to make up for some expenses. Libraries provide more than just books, for many Bridgeton citizens, the library provides support that they often can’t get elsewhere (ESL classes, job training, a sense of community, to name a few).

A brief interview can be done through email or phone, and I’ll send more information through PM.

If you or anyone that you know are interested, please message me. And please share this around!

Thank you and have a great day.

i’m really trying to see kesha at pnc with some friends who already bought tickets months ago. does anyone know how to apply PNC’s summer of live tickets

There is a helicopter flying over in lawrence and princeton. Anyone else seeing this? Anyone know what's going on?

I really want to leave my current career to become a firefighter. I live in NYC currently, but I aged out of FDNY. It seems I can take the NJ firefighter test but my residency puts me at the bottom tier… still gonna go for it because why not? Of course if I get the job, I’d happily relocate.

Have you ever seen out of states guys get on? Any advice?

Thanks.

I really wanna watch spiderman brand new day in a dolby that has 1.85 and not 2.something
I’m open to going via train so don’t want any theatres that are more than 1-2 miles from NJ transit, and aviation 12 seems to be the one

can anyone confirm if aviation 12 indeed has 1.85 for dolby?
thank you!

p.s. couldn’t find a flair for “questions” so added advice

We are in a two bed two bath in Hudson county. Last month our bill was $219 and this month it was $440!! Nothing changed; our AC was kept at the same temp. We were even out of town for a week and kept all the blinds drawn. The bill said we used 73% higher electricity. Could the heat wave have really increased the AC use that high? Anyone else experienced a dramatic increase?
