Even worse, the specific theater that does this is the one in Dorchester most frequented by Black youth. The downtown theater on Boston Common has no such restrictions, I just checked.
Today's kids need to watch out for SUVs when they're walking, biking, scooting... and SWIMMING.
30 years ago this was understood to be the behavior of a thoughtless partner, not a cheat code!
Mitch McConnell just spoke for 20 minutes with Washington Post reporter John Klein, who is staying in a Port Pleasant motel.
I think this is a book all men should read. It dispels many of the myths around rape and how the criminal legal system treats women who come forward and men who are accused.
That's not bad enough? How about being so brain-mushed that you can't keep track of your own spouse's birthday? Caring the least bit about your partner is such an annoying chore that you ROLL YOUR EYES at your children's thoughtfulness while letting your AI put together your thoughtless gift.
Headlines on studies showing pronounced "de-skilling" in people who rely on AI to do their work just plum forgot that turning you into a mindless schlub incapable of simple tasks WAS THE SALES PITCH! Apple took these ads down, but this office imbecile is who they WANT you to become.
A generation of education reform was based on the idea that Black students require “no excuses” schools with suspensions for shoe and hair infractions. Meanwhile the VERY SAME operators want the “world to be our [white] kids’ respective oyster” and their schools filled with enrichment and play.
This huckster INTRODUCED this school to Boston by shitting on public schools and promising privileged families that they could pay less for a private school environment that didn’t include those icky poor kids. “Curated diversity” is music to white progressive parent ears. A Benetton Ad school.
Five months after we said goodbye to our beloved 17yo girl, there is once again a very good dog in our home.
Google thinks it’s saving me time by pre-writing a response to an email from my dad, but it takes much more time to write my own response AND ALSO SEND FEEDBACK EVERY TIME THEY DO THAT CRAP.
Nearly 36 hours since SCOTUS imperiled thousands of Haitian Bostonians and Councilor Erin Murphy has released no statement, just brunch pics from the whitest part of Dorchester.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts gave this man a firearm and the authority to take and destroy lives, while he openly fantasized about Jim Crow terrorism.
And bikes are welcome on non-peak trains, which greatly expands your options when you arrive at these commuter rail termini. Look for the little bike icon at the top of each train’s timetable.
A 25 mile Father’s Day ride on the delightful Neponset River Greenway wouldn’t be complete without a demonstration on how to swap out a flat for my very captive audience. Unhinged t-shirt recommended but not required.
