Not to be sarcastic but why are you asking us to help you decide whether to drive to the doctor from work or from home when you only need to go into the office 2 days a week. The decision seems pretty obvious to me given the frequency and inflexibility of ob/gyn appts during pregnancy. The logical strategy to me is to consider the providers/hospitals closest to home and increase your radius as needed until you find one that meets your needs. Unless you’re high risk, then it’s a different conversation.

Cheesecake Factory

It started in Rhode island but certainly not exclusive to Rhode island

That’s how things tend to go

He already finished his career. He’s here for some money and won’t rock the boat.

I guess that’s the best we could hope for

He’s here to grab a bag, get blamed for stuff, and quit.

Dude just retired and prolly has a huge pension/401k whatever from New York City. One year here and he can pay a kid/grandkids college with the extra bread.

I have a down, waterproof parka and I love it. The down never gets wet

Down doesnt handle moisture at all so probably not a good recommendation for somebody who's never heard of clothes before

Go to a thrift shop and buy something that fits? Do you have some niche problem that requires extra help?

There are lots of kids but I’ve seen groups of adults there as well.

hell yeah. a single slice of s’mores cheesecake from there lasts me 3-4 desserts.

Is it good for adults?

This is the only local place I have been: https://www.bostonpaintball.com/ashland

Bonus points because they have some spring loaded pump action options for younger kids to participate.

Lazed Craze in Woburn is great

I think there was a place around Dedham, close to the Taco Bell on that route but I do not remember its name.

I lived in a Spanish speaking country and am married to a native Spanish speaker and yet I have only heard other white people in the US use the term ‘latinx’.

Doesn't the T get a lot of money already? It feels the same as Boston's school bus system, which gets enough that we could pay for all its riders to get taxi rides instead but can't be trusted to even show up at each stop each day.

I feel like the state needs some dedicated office of audits and budgeting that goes in each year to work with departments to find where the money's going and how much its goals will cost. Also, outline priorities so maybe it will top wasting money making one of the cheapest subway systems in the world free when it claims to be in dire need of funds to make itself usable (unless it's literally paying me for my time, I'm not waiting half an hour for a piss-soaked Orange Line train I can out-walk no matter how cheap it is).

Fucking sad and embarrassing that these need to take place, but i wish your vigil well!

Hi. I am hosting a candlelight vigil on centre street in Jamaica plain for the victims of school shootings. Please bring your own candle and perhaps some to share.

Friday 6pm outside First Baptist Church in Jamaica Plain.

The budget for FY23 pensions is $152 million out of the $2.5 billion dollar operating budget. Before you move on to your next uninformed talking point, overtime is budgeted at $43 million. So about $200 million/year combined which is less than their debt interest payments alone.

I take the same station and go to Downtown Crossing, I used to get there by 7:30am, since the slowdown I'm not getting to DTC until 7:45, and I still need to get to Kendall and I've been late to work everyday this week. On top of that normally I'd have a 15-20 wait time before my bus at Oak to go home, and all this week I've had 2mins to catch the bus at Oak. There's an waiting issue.
