Living in a small city like Boston is so fun. For over a decade I have been going to a barber in Dorchester who has a shop with his brothers. Tonight I hear some new tenants moving in to the apartment above mine. I go upstairs to introduce myself and it’s my barber’s brother and his family! Crazy

That hate crime where you meet someone else who is from Boston traveling, but really they live in Lexington, and when you tell them you live in Dorchester, they feel compelled to say “Dorchestah” in an exaggerated Boston accent.

it's true. Our $200k+ a year police apparently aren't paid enough to enforce traffic laws. If you get pulled over for anything, there's probably a warrant and the traffic violation is pretext.

Times have been tough in this Western Massachusetts town ever since they closed the old pottery studio. So when the lesbian bar promised to ease its mask mandate, they finally had something to cheer about again. But then the owner left for clown college.

Someone in the chat rightly pointed out that Southie is what integration looks like. Real segregation looks more like Weston, and they never get called out, because the structural inequality isn't visible by travelling a few blocks.

Boston could save a lot of money if we just asked Ed Flynn and Erin Murphy to get their staff to monitor social media and forward posts whenever someone talks shit about cops to BPD. If they aren't already doing it for free.

Maybe you don't see the logical connection between socialism and safe bike lanes as well as pedestrian infrastructure for everyone but the right wing certainly does so I think we should just stop trying to reason with them and run with it.

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.

It's a little sad watching contractors flip a Victorian house in Boston these days. We gave the world This Old House for goodness sakes. But you're more likely to see the house turn into a Temu Joanna Gaines knockoff of some modern farmhouse that even when done right only makes sense in Waco.

The house I grew up in used an oil-powered furnace, like many homes in the Northeast US. I'm having to log off every time I see someone be flippant about how a lot of people won't be able to afford heating their homes this winter. You're joking about people and even kids freezing to death.
