Trump & Secretary Duffy have no right to steal federal transit funding from Roxbury, which we fought hard to secure. This project is an investment in our people that will improve the daily lives of commuters. The law is on our side and DOT must reverse course.

Tons of seats open for the Sheeran show at Gillette, and a fall Nor'Easter coming through. How many other signs are needed? Raining frogs? Impenetrable darkness? Hide those firstborn males I guess 🤷🏾‍♀️

My favorite game is getting a panicked call from press/aides/etc with 3 - 4 vague hints about the person whose name they forgot that is either on their way or just left their building.

Y'all just do not know how casually Black comic/fantasy heroes are discarded both in the film and in the convention space. I once ran into Don Cheadle on Martha's Vineyard and asked why he wasn't coming with his co-stars to FanExpo. They didn't even send this man a damn email.

The most frustrating thing about the @mbta.com's system for displaying bus arrivals is how it gaslights poor riders into believing the bus is on its way, and then simply restarts the clock after the window has passed. It is a system that only reminds you what SHOULD happen, not what IS happening.

Massachusetts is now officially home to the country's first union of Uber and Lyft drivers, 18 months after the ballot question that gave them the right to collectively bargain. Here's a look at their next steps: www.wbur.org/news/2026/05... @wbur.org

Massachusetts formally certifies nation's first union of Uber and Lyft drivers. Now what?
The formal recognition comes 18 months after a 2024 ballot question gave local ride-hailing drivers the right to collectively bargain. The union will now represent about 70,000 drivers.
