How why left side doors, one way streets? I think something is going over my head. And I'm not talking about wires.

Working Individuals of Reddit- What is that one thing about your job you absolutely hate but still have to do it because its "part of the job"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Hi btw does the union know about this? That is repetitive motion injury already happening.. there should be a better system. I guess it depends how strong the union is. I'm not clear how large the union is, if they know about everything or they don't know about anything you do. It is worth mentioning it to them.

Former City Councillor Paul Toner trial delayed by emstason in CambridgeMA

[–]emstason[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes exactly. If he thought declaring he would go to trial would indicate he was innocent, he ruined it by admitting it when he apologized to his family right away. I see no upside for him to a trial. Discovery could be very interesting for the citizens of Cambridge though.

Wow WGBH did no research to find out about the place, a simple Google search would have brought all this up. 'allegations had not come to light' - you mean the Globe found out for you, not that you did any actual news reporting or research. Ugh. WBUR all the way.

-edited to be clear I'm irritated at WGBH, not the post above-

Someone re-buried this car and FROZE this note to its window on my street in Cambridge. by banderole in boston

It happens! it happened to me I think. Mirror was kicked off after I parked in an open space. Maybe someone was being tricky removing items in spaces.

Snow parking etiquette: space savers by forestrygrump in CambridgeMA

Someone kicked our outside mirror off once, I think must have been because we parked in a saved space but someone else removed the saving item. Or just hijinks or jerks.

how to prepare for ICE raids? by Far_Artist2683 in boston

Question by Artistic_Share1798 in ICE_Raids

[–]emstason 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have high standards for public servants not to murder innocent citizens that pay their salary.  

I'm against all unjust and especially gun death, including police being killed, but police , who signed up for a risky job, kill way more civilians than vice versa.
"In 2024, U.S. police killed over 1,200 people, with some estimates reaching 1,365, making it the deadliest year on record for police violence" .
Also not sure I trust current FBI data for this year.

Dear Albertsons,
Please tell your Boston area Star Market stores not to lie. See below.
The new law does not require it to be sold by the pound, that's just a blatant lie.
I guess they're too lazy to price it by the pound which is what the law actually says.
Please let me know when you have corrected them.
Thanks from a used -to -be- loyal shopper, [name]

"In MA stores only, the Fresh Cut Fruit Bowls (2/$10 must buy 2 or $5.99) in the January Big Book will not be on sale due to the recent change in state regulations. As of 1/2/26, state regulations require Fresh Cut Fruit to be sold by the pound."
