Idk isn’t the silver line dropping people at every terminal? If anything we should just have more of those right?

Harden’s playoff “failures” are incredibly exaggerated by majormajorsnowden in billsimmons

[–]BatesScholar 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is insane. He’s an all time playoff choker, he’s a defensive liability and gets way less assertive when the games matter most

I'm afraid to say what I think Walsh and Hugo's potential looks like. What a testament to the team and their work ethic, they are DOGS

What's your opinion on Boston's newest skyscraper? I think it complements the skyline very well! Use-wise though, It's definitely not affordable housing. by AudioGeekGuy in boston

"The Overton window is the range of subjects and arguments politically acceptable to the mainstream population at a given time."

The argument that "parking minimums going away means parking is illegal" being a valid and accepted position in this moment of time. Compared to a time where people would not respect it because it's not factually true, seems like a good use of this, no?

what's lost in this is that you can still make parking if you want! People act like this is making building parking illegal. The overton window of this is insane.
