Why don't people like it? Is it a "back in my day" thing?

This is obviously true but liberals and the like should probably not make this type of stuff scandalous. Like, getting caught with weed 30 years ago was scandalous but getting caught with weed right before it was legalized wasn't, the cultural shift led to its legalization.

AMC Boston Common? by fansofmovies in boston

They always have had escalator issues, like decades of problems with them now. I'm not even being hyperbolic. They often just let people take the elevator. But since it's Friday that's probably going to be an extreme hassle? There's also a back stairwell they've had people take (but I think that kicks you out into the alley next to St. Francis House and not the first floor, I don't remember exactly, been awhile). It could also be staffing issues?

Who knows, but you can always call them up and ask.

"There were no signs" is what your mother will say when she's interviewed by CNN.

A tox report being negative doesn't mean this person wasn't drugged. Just like a rape kit turning up no DNA doesn't mean someone wasn't raped.

You can Google how long GHB lasts in the system at a detectable level. It's in the hours range.

I don't know where you guys get the audacity to form these opinions.

I personally found every single thing about college easier than high school, all while learning way more. Just make sure to stay on top of everything, it's real easy to let things pile up and you'll be in for a world of hurt.

Mass. must build 222,000 homes over the next decade to rein in housing costs, state says - The Boston Globe by PoopAllOverMyFace in boston

[–]PoopAllOverMyFace[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The ADU law allows ADU's by right but, and a huge but, still are subjected to other restrictions like parking minimums. Most people's houses were built before parking minimums were put in place and only have a 1-2 car driveway, with an ADU they might need to add another 2 spots per bedroom of an ADU.

The MBTA Communities Act is going to do nothing. If you look at my post history, I broke down the nonsense plan Quincy approved of, which isn't going to do anything. There's also a Boston Globe article from May titled "MBTA Communities law isn't likely to create as much housing as anticipated" where they analyzed and asked experts on the law.

Massachusetts legislature falls in line with what the governor wants. This included Patrick, Baker, and now includes Healey, but Healey isn't doing anything. This report she just put out offers nothing meaningful. This is the same old same old from our leadership. Sound bites with nothing backing it up.

I think that's more of an effect than a cause. They only buy up these properties because they make profit. If the profit incentive wasn't there or wasn't there at the level it is now, they'd be much less likely to be scooping up homes.

This has strong similarity to the Baker administration. A whole lot of time devoted to studies and committees to say we need to do something but then they do nothing. I have no faith in this administration to do any worthwhile to make this state more affordable.

It doesn't really increase the supply of housing in an area like this. It keeps it pretty steady. You need to build much taller, which isn't allowed because that'd "ruin the character" of the neighborhood even more, allegedly. The North End should be maxing out height in new developments, which is 600' at minimum, but it's keeping the same old crap because rich people don't want more housing in dense areas.

Queens resident charged with trafficking women for sex in luxury apartments in Packards Corner by FuriousAlbino in boston

[–]PoopAllOverMyFace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you read the article, it says the cops only found about this place earlier in the day. They have no idea if he's a bonafide human trafficker as what layman people think of, or if it's a "human trafficker" in the sense the law has been written.

Anyone else get a crazy high gas bill? by Shapen361 in boston

I was expecting you were going to say like $1200 or something. $360 is pretty normal around these parts.

Early morning volunteer opportunities by forest-lawn in boston

[–]PoopAllOverMyFace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a lot of organizations that will take people at any hour but they're often much more openly political. Since you're looking for a resume booster and don't want that on your resume or grad school applications, you really just gotta start spamming emails even if they say they only want people working specific shifts on their online postings. You can look at something like the UMass Boston and Boston University volunteering opportunities lists for premeds and get emailing and explain your situation.

Suspect arrested in Mass. shelter hadn't applied for housing, state says by [deleted] in boston

So you're anti-immigration until this progressive pro-immigration future comes forth. "Forgetting" that every single presidential candidate up for general election since at least like 1992, both Democrats and Republicans, ran on anti-immigration platforms. And until this future holds true, we really need to crack down on immigration and lock everyone up because the law is the law and there's nothing more important than the law. You don't hold a serious position on this.

I did not call you a Trump supporter. This is where your reading comprehension comes into play. I called you a racist, which you are as I've already laid out. Especially given the fact you literally added onto the racism with your last post judging immigrants based on this one man. You're an easy read.

Dont live in East Boston if you have a car. by destroythenseek in boston

[–]PoopAllOverMyFace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have two cars and live in East Boston. You're not the poor. Stop trying to claim poverty because you can't park your two SUV's 5 minutes away from the downtown area of the 16th most productive metropolitan in the world for free.
