The Boston LOL 💜 🚲 ⚡ @thebostonlol.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
This is a great article on all the benefits of eliminating parking minimums. Cities that have done this have seen various benefits, in that developers can choose to build more homes for people and not be required to build car parking instead @universalhub.com www.masslive.com/boston/2026/...

Boston could stop requiring parking in new buildings — here's what that means for residents
Building a underground parking can cost developers up to $100,000 per space.

I get really mad about this when I rent something and there's no way to tell beforehand, and no way to get a refund.

What’s the evidence on rent control? I charted the findings from 112 studies: Great for rent-controlled tenants ✅ But: Pushes up rents for other people ❌ Pushes down new housing construction ❌ Pushes down building quality ❌

people generally get causality reversed with political donations. it's not that politicians agree with PACs because the PACs support them, PACs support politicians *because those politicians have beliefs that agree with them*

New Boston Magazine cover feature I assembled, on the data showing how superior Massachusetts is to all those other states. Something to peruse before the Sox-Yankees series starts tonight. www.bostonmagazine.com/news/2026/09...

We're No. 1! Obviously.
Sure, Massachusetts gives us plenty to complain about. But from schools and healthcare to sports and Dunkin’, here are 61 reasons we’re still awfully hard to beat.

Last night I had a dream where I was watching a Netflix original movie, and when it ended there was an announcement that it would be followed by a 100-episode television series, which is the clearest sign I've ever had that I was dreaming.

Mayor Wu has somehow built a national reputation for municipal socialism without much socialism. No redistribution of power, no decommodification, and you still can’t safely bike from Dorchester to City Hall.

Most Americans, when they hear about Senator Collins doing something bad, don't need to think about who that is. But in Boston we have to think about it for a second.

We really ought to sit with the fact that Verhoeven, three decades later, has to publicly say 'Guys, the one I made about the militarized society in nazi uniforms waging an expansionist total war against aliens they refuse to understand? It's about fascism' www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/general...
hollywoodreporter.com
Paul Verhoeven on U.S. Space Force’s ‘Starship Troopers’-Inspired Uniforms: “It’s Based on Leni Riefenstahl”
The director of the 1997 sci-fi film, which has often been misunderstood, says the gung-ho soldiers who are its heroes "are fascists without knowing that they’re fascists. That’s the point.”

I would direct your attention to how when Democrats were playing into Trumps hands in spring 2025, he was gutting Medicaid with bare majorities in Congress. Mike Johnson was surely thrilled when CVH went to El Salvador. (I'm ot particularly mad at CVH standing up for a constituent).

RFK Jr. wants people to get sick. He wants them to get sick and he thinks it is a good thing if they die, since those who live will have "natural immunity" and emerge stronger and fitter.
