Search this sub for the last handful of times this was asked lol, I believe there’s a place over in the north end if I’m remembering correctly

"Back to whence you came!!"

Awww. Good for you kiddo.

With all that money and education you do don't know how to talk to people. I guess that's one thing you don't learn in college.

Again, I was contemplating skipping it, but you made me want to go even more.

Can't wait till Sunday!

Honestly, for the impact they make in the city, parking permits should cost at least $10,000 per year. Ride a fuckin' bike, moron.

Okay… great so they’re not there anymore but they’ve got another field to go poop on that people don’t like?? This weird little game of whack a mole doesn’t seem to solve anything

Oh hey! That's my block. I have no problem with the double-parking by the church/mosque, as the street is plenty wide, but since we're complaining about use of space, my dog was almost murdered by a driver when we tried to cross Dedham St. That crossing is a nightmare and we should ban cars from it.

Multiple things can be true at once. Some teachers unions wanted to bargain over vaccine mandates when they were first rolling out. You could literally spend 2 seconds googling it before posting wrong shit on Reddit.

We're going to have these rotten red line trains until 2050 at this rate. I expect a total failure of the red line in the not distant future TBH. These trains date back to 1969 and are clearly being held together by duct tape and glue at this point.

Necessity, reasonable means, proportionality and harm avoidance

4. Sue someone

5. PROFIT!!

Jogging through it is nothing. Playing football and getting knocked down in it is fucking disgusting. It's also extremely slippery when wet if you aren't wearing cleats.

If they’re a requirement for employment they ABSOLUTELY need to be in a collective bargaining agreement

100% agree, and I am a frequent brewery patron and not a parent. I think a big reason breweries have gotten so popular is that the vibe is different compared to a "bar" and I think people were looking for a community place where it is socially acceptable to have a drink mid-day, potentially with a kid or dog in tow (outside only for the dog though). This is way more common in Europe and it was really missing here until the breweries started opening.

Obviously it's not appropriate to bring kids to some super crowded rowdy brewery at 9pm but I don't have a problem at all with it on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon. A lot of the breweries have games and stuff to keep kids occupied and a lot of them are very spacious and not very full midday.

I’m a college grad, with a whole ass engineering degree with a whole full time job and a life and family that doesn’t include children. I live in Boston and can afford to live in Boston comfortably, I just bought a brand new car. I’ve paid off half of my 100k worth of student loans in less than a year. Call me a kid again, and that just proves that you are indeed the child in the conversation. I have no idea how you can call me a “drunk college kid”, there’s no grounds for you to stand on

Nah, just someone who likes to fuck with assholes.

You want to have a conversation like an adult, you get treated like one. You wanna be a drunk college child, you get treated like one.

Boston Homestel, and Hostel Y (YMCA).

This is speculation, but I think think it's more substantial than /u/ShriekingMuppet to just assume it's all straight up money. But it was a gambit that went very wrong.

Let me put it like this and bare with me - you can see a much bigger example if you watch from 8:56 to 10:53 of this Youtube documentary about the failed Superconducting Super Collider project. A common tactic to please various constituents is to give everyone a piece of the pie, no matter how small.

When it came to the failed Superconducting Super Collider project, it was spreading out contracts across 47 states. But this type of politics applies to smaller scale projects too. To appease Western MA that a project doesn't only "benefits" Boston, they tied a new factory with the project.

It also notable that unlike the discussion has implied so far. If you look at links like this(Page 8), CNR had a record as good as Bombardier (Which anyone who follows knows they aren't perfect, but nobody questions them as a legit manufacturer). So any person who assess by what the data says, then it's not just choosing the less "iffy", it was choosing a company who has done a good as a job as Bombardier... and promptly got bought out by the company rated so poorly that they were explicitly rejected.

So it was an attempt to make it into a "win-win". Western MA gets jobs. Boston gets new trains. CNR gets a foothold in the NA market. MA in general gets Bombardier-level trains at bargain prices. And it all went to shit.

Good news, he just got indicted.

Another one ran for school board south of Boston. And won.

You’ve got to be a teenage troll. There’s no way an adult with children acts like this. Hope karma bites you in the face 👋

Then Newton and Cambridge should get dogs and all three town dogs can play together.

It generally is... but the cops are loaded to the gills with Republican fascists.

>This vaccine was not approved by the FDA and clearly wasn’t doing as advertised.

So... COVID deaths for the vaccinated drastically went down because magic? What vaccine was everyone taking that wasn't FDA approved?

We all questioned it. As everyone should. Thankfully there were hundreds of peer reviewed papers and data that showed everything was fine.
