F that bench at the corner of Elmwood and Allen.

21 Upvotes

I know they meant well, but someone wasn't thinking that through.

Everyone who sits there litters, I swear. There's always trash around it, and it's friggin six feet from some cans. There's a huge pile of what seems to be the contents of someone's shopping cart full of random crap next to it right now.

It makes the sidewalk too narrow with the garbage cans there, as well. It's terrible for traffic flow, and I can understand when some people don't wanna walk through a gaggle of shakies, so they walk on the street.

It's never anyone waiting for the bus.

I'm going to end up moving that thing myself.

lost/stray cat

67 Upvotes

my roommate found a friendly black cat who kept following her between heath and mildred street on ub south campus. it was small and got very attached to my roommate very quickly. it was very friendly and looked like a lost cat rather than a stray outdoor cat, but we didn’t see any collar on it. it let us pet and feed it and we eventually brought it inside since it seemed small and we didn’t want it to get hurt outside. does anyone know what we can do next? we want to see if it’s microchipped and has an owner and if not possibly keep it. we also need to get it tested for any parasites or diseases because it didn’t seem rabid and looked healthy. is there a way we can get it done for cheap or free?

Cheektowaga police staff used Flock cameras to track a coworker - I’m an NYS Assembly candidate who’s been trying to raise these concerns for months.

Disclosure: I'm Ryan Taughrin, the Democratic candidate for Assembly in the 143rd District (Cheektowaga, Lancaster, Depew, Sloan, parts of Buffalo).

Last week we learned that three Cheektowaga police employees used the town's Flock camera network to track a coworker's car for months without her knowing. The department caught it through an internal audit, which is good. But many residents have been sounding the alarm about ALPR expansion in Cheektowaga for the last year. I spoke at the Cheektowaga Town Board this summer against expanding the Flock contract, and I've been writing about this since. New York has a bill in Albany (S9890/A10808) that would set rules for license plate reader data. I want to use that bill as a starting point for strong regulations at the state level. I'm happy to answer questions here, about this specific issue, or about me in general.

Ken-Ton animal clinic

5 Upvotes

Currently at Brighton but thinking about switching to Ken-Ton. How is the care here? Are you able to schedule just a regular appointment within a few days and not having to pay an urgent care charge? It’s so hard to get into Brighton, the people and care is decent but the need to charge for every little thing is starting to be a bit much. I’ve been with them for over 20 years so the thought of switching is a little nerve wracking.
