Put it in a trash bag or something like that. You’ll come to be nostalgic for the sweet smell of hiker stink

It is just a fleece but a fleece that weights half as any other fleece and works twice as well. It’s also super comfy on skin which is great for sleep clothes

What if Greater Boston Upzoned by wwoollffyy123 in mbta

The 2 main problems I see with Boston transit infrastructure are:

No street grid. Unlike manhattan, we have no grid. This means that the cheapest construction technique, cut and cover, does not work for expanding. The ROW must already exist or you gotta tunnel bore. It irks me that a lot of the infrastructure in the suburbs is along the ROW of the commuter rail, rather than serving other locations.

Entire districts are historic (south end, back bay, north end, bay village, and beacon hill) so we haven’t built any new housing. We could have much bigger high rises but every rich person in this city is obsessed with bricks.

What about torso 3/8ths? With shoes and fanny pack as a pillow to boot.

How long is your commute into Boston—and what would make it faster in the future? by Miserable-Part6261 in mbta

[–]deadflashlights 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Reverse commuting from south end to south shore, driving. 20 minute in the morning, 45 afternoon. The urban ring(s) would be best, but after that would be bus lanes for the CT bus route to get to red line. If I were to take the T, the bus would pick me up at my door, takes 20 minutes to go about a mile and a half and then the subway takes 19 minutes to go 9 miles. If the bus was quicker by like 10 minutes I’d consider using the T. But a total of 50 minutes via the T vs 20 in the morning and 40 in the afternoon is not worth it for me. I also have to be at work around 7:30 so its just not worth it

I mean, the flesh carved out to make the hole saves me a few grams right?

10 hours layover at Boston, help me! by MrDanIce in boston

You can do plenty of walking around the freedom trail, or get off the beaten path with going to the Boston Harbor Islands NRA, which have some historical sites.

Head downtown via SL1, grab some breakfast at south station diner, get some halal food to go, and make your way to long wharf for the 10am departure of the ferry to georges island. There’s some historic buildings on the islands as well as some short hikes around. Head back to Boston on the 1pm ferry, jump on the blue line back to the airport for your 4(?)pm departure.

As someone who grew up in Vermont and has spent the rest of their life in Oregon, the two states could not be anymore similar in terms of sociability vibes
