    /r/schenectady is like a bad dream, on LSD, as experienced by a schizophrenic.

    Don't got to the Pub on Madison
    DONT EVER GO TO THE BAR The Pub On Madison they will defend the person when someone makes fun of you and call you a retarded and when your try to go back inside to tell your friends then don't care the bouncer with push you down the stairs and I kick him in the shins twices in self defense. Get try to knock me out cold and kill me. I told the Albany Police Department but they don't care about feeling and who started what first so, I'll just Share this on Facebook for everyone to see. Albany don't care about people being call retarded and when they stand up for themselves and try to not make a scene they will take the side of the bar. So good on you, that is not humane at all. I have bruises that I will share, no one filled a report because they didn't care, and we live in 2019. You going to allow people to bully others if they are a little slower then other for no reason. Gtfo that is so freaking frowned upon and I what people to like that s to know that the cops and the bouncer/pub are wrong. 1

    Good OBGYNs in the area?

    Hey everyone!

    I'm looking for an good OBGYN who does female sterilization and doesn't try to talk you out of it or tell you how horrible you are for wanting it.

    I want to find someone who does both Bilateral salpingectomy and Endometrial ablations. Preferably within 45 minutes of Schenectady, but I will absolutely take suggestions of people outside that range.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey guys! Been living in Troy since the spring and am excited to announce that I wrote a book set to release in softcover this December!

    A former Albany resident, my wife and I just moved back to the area after being out of state for a few years. I’m super excited to be able to release this in the place we realized was home for us all along.

    Spanning several years, this book is a collection of absurd (and real) conversations between myself and various internet scam artists that I truly never thought would see the light of day. From bogus romances to celebrity angel investors, internet scams are on the rise and I have spent a tremendous amount of time delighting in making those responsible regret their decision to slip into my DM’s.

    I’m opening up presales to anyone and everyone interested in getting their hands on a copy.

    $15 (plus tax and shipping, if required).

    Regarding Sweating The Petty (And Other Working Titles): Adventures In Scambaiting, the Capital District’s own ska punk powerhouse trio Girth Control writes:

    “Sweating the Petty elevates the simple stupidity of messing with anonymous internet scammers into art, with Ryan’s wit and knack for storytelling emerging in the unlikeliest of places.”

    DM for more info!

    Looking for am Electrician

    Thanks in advance. We’re looking for a reliable, independent electrician or one that’s a part of a small outfit. We have a few projects around the older house we just bought and got a quote from one of the larger outfits that just seemed outrageous. We figure an independent that’s not paying for wrapped trucks and a full staff might give us a better deal. We’re not trying to lowball anyone. Thanks again!

    No standing signs

    Hey all - currently staying here for a night in the Bellevue area. My wife and I took our dog for a walk and saw a bunch of "No standing signs" around the neighborhood (mainly on Harrison St). These signs sparked our curiosity lol. Anyone know the story behind them?

    Receive Free Sleep Coaching in UC Berkeley Sleep Study (Remote/USA) [Mod Approved]

    Hello!

    We are currently recruiting young adults aged 18-30 to take part in our no-cost sleep coaching study. The purpose of this study is to test whether specialized sleep coaching sessions that focus on the science of habit formation can help people who have difficulty getting to sleep at night, difficulty waking up or getting out of bed in the morning, and feel sleepy during the day. We are hoping that this research study will result in a sleep treatment that will help many people who have these types of sleep problems. 

    This study is really exciting because we’re offering free sleep coaching with therapists who have specialized training in sleep therapy at UC Berkeley. This is a unique opportunity to get access to no-cost sleep coaching for those struggling with their sleep. Eligible individuals will receive compensation for completing each part of the study (four 60-90 minute Zoom interviews, 7 days of wearing a sleep watch, and 7 days of completing online surveys). Additional information provided upon phone screening. The study is entirely remote.

    If you are interested in learning more, please contact us by email at sleepteamucb@gmail.com, or via phone at (510) 473-6490‬. You can find more information about our lab and this study at the following link: https://www.ocf.berkeley.edu/~ahsleep/gbsmrc_mock/sleep-habits-study/
