r/Connecticut

I’ve seen this bumper sticker that says “No beef? Guess I’ll have the Hamden” twice in the last few months and really want to get my hands on it. An online search doesn’t yield anything. Would anyone have any insight to offer?

Donald Trump, keep your clammy little hands off our elections. Your executive order is illegal and will be stopped. Here in Connecticut, we are working to ensure free, fair and secure elections.

Bills currently before the legislature:

✅HB 5533 strengthens protections for poll sites and election workers against federal overreach

✅HB 5001 expands access to absentee ballots for all Connecticut voters

✅HB 5342 prohibits the use of AI-generated deceptive media aimed at influencing elections.

Not seeing any news coverage but was looking at Enfield arrest records and noticed her father’s name showed up with one hefty bond amount. Heartbreaking for the poor girl.

This morning my buddy from Stamford sends me this clip he received in his discord.

News articles are saying it's two completely separate incidents. First one is a car fire you see burning in the video. Second accident happened nearly two hours later which is when this video takes place. You can literally see the 17 year old kid being pulled from the BMW after he crashed into the back of the state trooper.

Hope this kid learns a life long lesson for almost causing an even bigger disaster and almost adding to the death toll.

I’m a huge college basketball fan (and, yes, a UConn fan) and I genuinely could not stop rewatching the end of UConn-Duke.

Everything was scattered across Twitter, YouTube, bar videos, and my camera roll, so I built the thing I wanted to exist:

uconnduke2026.com

One place for:

• The best clips and replay angles
• Reaction videos and bar footage
• A full comeback timeline
• Social/media reaction
• A submit form if there’s a clip I missed

Free, no account needed, works on mobile. Figured some of the other college basketball sickos and UConn fans here might enjoy having it all in one place.

Passport to Connecticut Libraries 2026 Trip #2

Rockville Public Library in Vernon (Rockville), Connecticut

Built in 1904; it is a historic library which is located near downtown Rockville. In fact, this is my hometown library which makes it my local library. I also volunteer here as an intern and I'm happy to be part of the library team.

It has a beautifully preserved circulation desk in the reading room, a seed library, a special Holocaust Book collection, Library of Things collection, a special playhouse in the children's room that was recently installed, and even a Little Free Pantry as well as an ongoing book sale.

The library staff are nice and the library collection is filled with a lot of books and a moderate collection of movies. There are museum passes for people if they plan on paying discounted prices or free admission while visiting recreational places of interest. There's also free access to Ancestry and many more while using computers.

Overall, it's a nice library.

Feedback is appreciated. Enjoy the album.

Still awesome..where is your favorite lobster roll? New England CC?
